Gravity's says it's real.

I never said some of the images posted here were real. You have confused me with someone else.

30 MINUTES AND COUNN-TINGG!

Cool to see the gunbarrel. What's with the black space at the bottom?

Retro and simple.

Teaches all those over-busy teasers a lesson.

The first trailer for SKYFALL will be released here on 007.com on Monday 21st May at 8.30am BST

Good to see the teaser trailer is going online before it debuts in theaters.

Here's the quad version of the poster. I like this crop better.

It's simple and elegant, and it's the first time the promotional materials for a Craig Bond film have situated his Bond within the "classic" imagery of the franchise.

Well, it could be worse, I guess. I like that they included a classic gunbarrel.

I look forward to seeing the trailer.

Boring!

Is this allowed?

Well, it's a teaser poster, so it's not going to be particularly enthralling. I like the concept a lot, but visually, it lacks a little bit of panache.

I (obviously) like it better than the NA release posters for DAD. There was more colour, sure, but less iconography.

I expect SF's release poster will be killer.

I've been flip-flopping on whether or not I think this is glorified fan art. (My first post in reaction to the poster said as much.)

Yep, the iconography is nice. I like that. But like I said, it just lacks flair. Sure, it's a teaser poster, but I still expect, I don't know, more.

But, like Brown said, could be worse. I will quit now before my nit-picking becomes annoying fanboy complaining.

I am not impressed by that poster even if it's a Teaser poster.

Even the Teaser poster for Casino Royale was better.

m_balje works for EON now?

It's a nice idea, but there's something about it I don't like. I actually wish he were striking the classic Bond shooting pose.

I kinda like it.

What I love is what it implies. 007 is going to visit is "cave". See the heroes journey book or wiki if you don't get it. It's a more smart poster than at first sight. And yes, I'm in love with Barbara.

First off, that CR teaser was a bloody fantastic teaser. Though I like the Skyfall one, I couldn't place why i didn't like it nearly as much as the CR one. And it's not the fan art thing. In affect, teasers should almost always look like fan art. For me, it's actually Bond's size. In the CR one, he's large, his face has visible emotion, and it's moody. The SF teaser reduces Bond to a minimal size. There is nothing to take from the way he's walking or standing in the barrel.

Problems with the SKYFALL teaser poster:

- Suit's too tight small and tight again.
- Craig's body looks too small but his head too large.
- No colour.
- Awkward pose.
- Craig's Thousand-yard stare.

Or maybe that's Barbara's ass canal?

I wish Craig were striking that pose. And having a woman in the poster wouldn't hurt, but of course Bond never has sex anymore.

I swear this must be the only place where fans complain about his Craig's fitting suit.

I'm neither nor there on the suits. I haven't looked too closely at them. I would prefer something a bit more Savile Row, however.

But just about anything is better than this:



1974. Tackiest year ever?

At least he didn't have those patches on his elbows.

OMG, those were awful!
