That's a good point that is easily overlooked by some.
No real info is known, besides a very brief outline of what it could be.
No behind the scenes filming, no stills, no character names or details.
If we believed everything we read, then Tenet is looking like it's going to be Nolan's first major flop.
But then, thankfully we don't believe everything we read.
Is it possible that some film makers, studios and directors are happy to create intrigue, excitement and buzz without resorting to mass hysteria of select fans and moviegoers.
Maybe some of them are going with a 'less is more' attitude.
It will be interesting to see how this "approach" turns out. Maybe they'll go heavy on the marketing of Tenet closer to the theatrical release.
Also entirely possible that they want to start in earnest after all the Xmas films are out of the way.
That's a very good question. I was born in '65 and quickly knew all about Bond from my parents and grandparents. The first Bond I saw was OHMSS, at Butlins holiday camp, when I was just over 5 and I remember the experience to this day. I know I was very aware Bond was for "grown ups", which only made the allure even more appealing. Once I saw OHMSS (still my fav Bond film, followed by FRWL and CR) I was hooked and I saw DAF as soon as it came out and then LALD, and then my grandparents took me, everyday for a week, to a local daily Bond double bill (DN + FRWL, TB + YOLT, GF + OHMSS, DAF + LALD). By the end of the week I'd seen every Bond film on the big screen and TMWTGG was just about to be released. I was still only 9 years old. So I think kids today still like to see films and characters which are aimed more towards adult audiences, and perhaps that's why Bond has endured for over 50 + years (an amazing accomplishment). How much longer it will last, who knows, but the films are still drawing huge audiences - older, middle-aged, 20's and younger - world wide.
Anyway, leaving behind all those fond childhood memories, back to NTTD thread.
I got into Bond because the kid next door went to see Moonraker when it premiered, and went total apeshit about it. When FYEO premiered every boy on the block was a Bond fan. Word-of-mouth and lobbycards at the local theatre were pretty much enough.
Dunno bout that. One of my big musings is what this film's gonna look like. There's (just about) an entire Linus Sandgren-shot Bond film in the can as of this week, and I can't wait to see how it vibes onscreen.
I wonder if they’re concentrating the marketing campaign around some major event, like the Super Bowl. A teaser in December, then a minute (or two) Super Bowl spot on February 7th 2020 would be cool.
I agree. There’s this notion that the Bond films don’t appeal to kids or a ‘younger’ audience these days, which I simply don’t think is true.
This is certainly a different world to the eras most of us grew up in, and there are other options out there these days that no doubt sate a specifically younger demographic, but Bond’s pulling power remains strong - particularly here in the UK.
It’s worth noting that Skyfall and Spectre are still second and third highest grossing films of all time at the UK box office, respectively, ahead of End Game, no less. You don’t do those figures without appealing to a broad cinema-going audience.
I think that’s it. Good word of mouth, a good theme tune even... there’s enough lustre around Bond to draw people in beyond that.
"Set in the international world of espionage"... and that's it. :-\"
Be sure to show yourself at the NTTD premiere, then ;)
Bond is driven a lot by the word of mouth/casually knowing of it as a cultural staple and maybe that's enough, particularly in the UK.
@Walecs yup, it's dropping tonight on ESPN, as announced by Disney on Saturday, just like that insider said ;)
It is due any minute now.
The new Star Wars trailer will be premiered tonight on Monday Night Football.
And that's like so Nolan. ;)
According to you that is.
Yes, because you are such an expert and you know better than Eon and MGM etc. Words fail me with regards to you and your "insightful" posts.
Publicity is already there with almost daily newspaper articles..
The major push for publicity will be in the new year.
Why are people panicking?
Yes will be nice for a teaser soon...but no need to panic..

Thankfully, EON doesn't think like that.
I was being facetious. Obviously.
