This is fake - happens all the time when a big trailer like that is released.
=))
Agreed. However, I have no doubt that although I will love it, SP will not be better than CR. CR was the best Bond Film since the golden era of Connery 62-65. Actually 69 as OHMSS was also classic.
Haha, it's not possible. Because the movie is not finished.
Don't worry.
feeling ashamed, hiding under my desk. I think my brains took a holiday after watching the trailer.
Absolutely. I find it.....quite scary that.....so many 'zombies' are controlling these computer screens. It's like 'Silva times 1000'
8-X
Can't wait to see it full screen. There's certainly an Adam vibe, a slightly brutalist concrete structure.
Indefinitely extraordinary.
Tell me after Spectre what you think, from what I am seeing this will blow CR out of the water. Its a much bigger movie in its size of production, locations and story.
I think it's very hard to call. CR has become a 'classic' while simultaneously jettisoning a lot of elements that previously defined 'classic'. That's how good it is. SP will really have to go some to better it, I feel. I really struggle to see how this will 'blow CR out of the water', because if it does we're essentially talking about the potential best Bond movie ever, which I refuse to accept based on a trailer alone. I mean this movie could be fantastic and still potentially fall short of CR. It's whether all the elements combine to deliver that certiain 'je ne sais quoi' that will inevitably elevate it to greatness in the Bond pantheon. Roll on October 26th!
I love CR for me it is the best film since FRWL. From everything I have seen of Spectre it oozes vintage class and touches. Bond was a dog on a lead through CR. There is more action with Bond out "ALONE" in the field blowing S"*t up and taking care of business even if he is bending the rules. This is a return to the Connery type Bond. Mallory is so much more in line with what a modern version of what M should be talking to bond like a Delinquent Teenager but knowing the same gets the job done. I think the scenes with Mallory will bring back those memories of the Connery era, with M being all serious and ond making witty puns whcih don't go down well. BRING THIS MOVIE ON!
We can talk after the film and see whether it lives up to CR or betters it.
Spectre has the opportunity to be the first film to really hearken back to the 60s and make it something special. If it succeeds, it'll be a lot of fun to watch.
I think this oozes brutality though. You can hit Bond's balls with a big shipyard rope. But you can also pop out one's eyes. But on the whole, I think the fight sequences between Bond and Hinx will shock us all
Still not sure the thrust of this movie is clear cut at the moment. It does to all extents seem like the Oberhauser-Bond angle is the beating heart of it. With SF the mcguffin was set up in the trailer, it's a little harder to determine exactly what the mcguffin is with SP, although it seems like it could be 'SPECTRE' themselves.
I think that's exactly the stuff that wasn't really shown in this full trailer. I think the images of that lair with Waltz standing in it....is really telling.
"SPECTRE" doesn't have a McGuffin, like FRWL, FYEO and SF. But it does have many more smaller McGuffin's I think. In SF Bond's mission is rather clear from the start: Retrieving the harddrive, assassinating the one who stole it, and then going home. In SP it doesn't seem so clear. So perhaps I should not have said...."Hitchcok-ian" :-P. But it oes have more mystery.
I wasn't actually picking you up on the 'Hitchcock' thing, because I believe there will be a level of mystery to this movie. When I say SPECTRE might be the mcguffin, I mean it in a sense that the thrust appears to be him tracing this 'mysterious organisation', but the real story appears to be something deeper and much more personal between Oberhauser/Bond.
And it had a great Arnold score.
I'm not sure that I am sold on the whole Bond vs Oberhauser relationsship which has been surfacing, but we shall see. Potentially it could be my favorite Craig Bond movie, but there are still unknown factors, like the score, the editing and so forth.
Exactly, at the end of the day it's down to story. The narrative can be epic, regardless of set pieces and locations. Hopefully SP has both. I too am a little wary about the Oberhauser/Bond relationship. I have to say it is the only thing about this film that makes me feel a little uneasy, but hopefully things won't pan out as I fear.
I have purposely avoided learning too much about SP so I can't comment on the story. We'll see how complete and/or satisfying it ends up. But I hope it isn't an Austin Powers-type plot about Bond and Dr. Evil (uh, Blofeld) growing up together or being long-lost brothers ... unless Sean Connery plays the role of their father/mentor.
The thing is though, Bond as a character has changed also. Yes, Madeleine Swann in the trailer looks and sounds as complex as Vesper Lynd. She literally asks:
And while you would expect a very serious, dark and gloomy answer from Bond, as we saw in CR, he now actually utters this, with a frivolous tiny smile:
There. He says it with style and without too much thinking :-). So in a way, James Bond has also developed....and changed as a person too. In this adventure, despite all the personal history and historical connections, James Bond feels more at ease, more certain of himself. Thus having slightly more whitt and tongue-in-cheek humour.
I do agree though with @RC7 that the plot, the story, is vital for every Bond film. And only time will tell if this works out fo "SPECTRE". So far, I am really excited about the trailer. It's truly fascinating to actually see a 4th part in a (loose) quadrilogy.....and see the character James Bond change in almost a decade time: From blunt instrument, emotionally hurt person, to the self-assured, joyous, funny spy.
This kind of "red storyline" that now will run through all four Craig outings, is quite unique in the franchise.
hope this answers your question ;)
