Must've taken a lot of effort to design this.

At least they're using their flipping valuable intellectual property.

Somebody should photoshop Dean Martin as Matt Helm into this poster, with the tagline being Dino's old bit:

"You're not drunk if you can lie on the floor without holding on"

That is absolutely awful.

Nobody's ever happy ...

Plenty of people liked the teaser poster. This one is clearly shit though.

Agreed, the gunbarrel teaser is a much better poster. This is just underwhelming and I'm not usually negative of the Craig era.

It's just the previously-seen lobby standee with the bottom part cumbersomely lumbered onto the top. Pretty dismal. Even our banner is better than this.

Two 007 logos, too much white space, credits at the top and nothing but a previously-used cutout of DC shooting at something.

It's a glorified teaser poster, except lazier. Whomever made this poster probably spent more time typing out the credits than anything else on it.

Well, they could have done a LITTLE worse.

I'm thinking a closeup of his asscrack with the words Bond's back.

Three, actually.

A new UK SKYFALL poster has just been released...

That poster doesn't really make much visual sense. A cutout of Craig over top of a randomly placed photo of London over top of the gunbarrel?

The last few posters have kind of blown.

Don't you like anything?

I think this poster is an improvement over the first one. I'll be getting it.

I like good posters, this one just looks like it was made by a fan.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Craig's hair is waaaay too short. I like him as 007, but I am hating the look they've given him in this film. I noticed it months ago, and now with the new promo posters coming out, it is becoming glaringly obvious I was right. His hair is just too short for Bond.

The hair colour is wrong, we know that, but the style of the hair is wrong. Babs & co. haven't got a bloody clue!!

Why is it always amateur hour over at Sony Marketing?

And yeah, Craig's hair is far too short. Makes his jug ears even more prominent.

Where did Craig get his Tux from? The Playboy Mansion?

I like things that aren't shitty, and that poster is shitty.

Think this should be split into its own about the latest poster, with its own poll.

Hilly?

Glad I wasn't the only one who was thinking Craig had raided Hugh Hefner's wardrobe.

The poster itself is pretty bland. The last couple of posters look like they were whipped up by a 5 year old on MS Paint. And let me echo the sentiments about Craig's thug cut. No class or sophistication at all with his appearance. Conservative side-part cuts have been trendy the last couple of years thanks to Mad Men and yet they've inexplicably decided to make him look like a common chav.

The posters for SKYFALL has been astonishingly bad and that new UK poster is the worst of the lot. Yuck.

And yes, Craig's hair is too short, though it looks better in the film footage than it does in these promo shots.

Not sure why the tux they picked for the promo pictures has a blue tint. The tux he actually wears in SKYFALL appears to be completely black.

And as I said, the combination of that with the black silk (though looks like velvet) shawl lapel (like the tux Connery wore at Blades in DR. NO) reminds one one of Hef's dressing gowns.

Craig pulled it off better with a similar suit here:



Still midnight blue, but with less harsh lighting/Photoshopping.
