New 'SPECTRE' Poster

New poster:

MBalje has been busy.

It's even more LALD than the previous poster was.

Something notable in the credits below. Daniel Craig is now listed as a co-producer, and Jez Butterworth's name is now listed among the writers, suggesting he did much more than polishing the script this time (he was an non-credited writer for SKYFALL).

Just noticed the Craig producing credit on the poster but also Thomas Newman. I've avoided these threads like the plague for a while so didn't realise Newman was back.

LALD is reportedly a favourite of both Craig and Mendes. I have very high hopes for the pre-credits sequence, it's looking like a cracker :) .

Mendes mentioned it as a favorite of his growing up when interviewed for Skyfall.

Maybe Sheriff J.W. Pepper will finally return.

On whose side though?

Is this the final poster? If so...disappointing.

Very macabre. I like the blue and white theme.

Not sure about the teal background, but I like it. It's certainly striking.

You've got this hard and unflattering light on Craig, like someone took a snap of him at a fucking Halloween fancy dress party and left the flash on. They then chose a random production still of a bloke in a skeleton costume and stuck in the background while reducing the contrast and adding a shitty teal filter. Pathetic.

I like it because there is a bit more colour involved. Craig's posters have nothing on the first 20 though…

Interesting that Craig is listed as a co-producer. Definitely a clause from his contract after SF's successful, but hope it doesn't mean he's sticking around for more Bond films...

Ah, the old fan posters.

Ha, I remember those posters. I had a go at a few on PhotoFiltre ('cause Photoshop was confusing as shit and cost money). The simple joys of being a sexless 15 year old.

Overall I like it although it has nothing on the greatness that is the Half Monk, Half Hitman poster.

When I saw this piece of shit floating around social media, I actually had to check the official 007 accounts to verify if this was real.

EON scores in 2012 with a billion dollar film but can't hire a fucking artist to make a proper poster.

Poster looks like absolute shit.

They should be doing 3d lenticular posters...but then again, many Bond posters in the Craig era suck.

Corrected that for you.

Agreed with MP. The only real poster of the Craig era with a mood to it.

At first I thought it was....tolerable. But after repeated viewings it's gotten worse. Not surprising, though, since the art work for all 4 Craig films have been atrocious. Whoever has been in charge of this area of the films has taken the concept of minimalism and simplicity to a horrid level.

Obviously I prefer posters with a lot more going on....these for example:




and




But even something as simple as the FYEO poster shows more originality than the Craig offerings. How can this movie, with all the money and resources put behind it, make a poster worse than what we got for LICENSE TO KILL?

Forgot about that teaser poster. I like it, too.

The theatrical poster was shit, though, with that doctored image of Craig. Looks like they accidentally shrunk his head while airbrushing it and forgot to fix it.
