    ok...you asked for it. here it is. enjoy...!

    @StJamesSt, I didn't mean YOU, personally, I was saying 'you', in general, as in people who make judgments on that too quickly. Sorry for the mix-up. I understood what you were saying.

    Thank you for the gracious apology. My mistake

    No problem at all.

    So, after re-watching the official trailer of QoS - which appears to have been released on September 10th - it looks like the SF trailer may be out in September, then, too. Shame, I had hoped for August. No matter, I'll enjoy myself this summer, and just as college starts up again, we'll have the trailer. I can't wait.

    Slightly off topic, but did anyone enjoy the QoS official trailer? I love the end of it, when the score picks up, then halts, just as Bond ejects his magazine while taking cover behind the jeep. I don't know what it is, but I love when actions in trailers match the score, just like Bond firing the two shots in the SF trailer, in unison with the score.

    I know this is a banal comment, but with that haircut, Craig looks more like an aging TinTin than JB.

    Well done @nobodydoesitbetter. Point proven indeed.

    @Hutcho64 Craig was certainly the first actor who has moved away from the traditionally accepted look of Bond, but for all that I think his screen charisma is amazing. I have followed his career for a long time but never saw him as Bond material. I was as surprised as anyone when he got the job, but quietly confident that he could pull it off.
    As such, watching him in SF trailer just makes me more excited than ever to see the film.

    I'm working on a For Your Eyes Only edit myself, If I have some spare time after work I'll finish and post it here. After 4 years we've finally got something other than the QoS trailer music! :D

    OK, but remember guys, it was my idea. I only asked someone to do it because I'm completely incompetant at such things.

    Well I'm glad to say I started and applause! But you could hear whispers of " wow that looks good" and other things like that.

    And MIB3 was a pleasant surprise, I could think of many worse ways to spend 2 hours.

    That's because youtube is infested with trolls. Your mash up made it on to the home page of MI6. Be proud ;)

    MIB3 looks like a nice way to spend a boring afternoon, but if I wasn't guaranteed an attached SF teaser, I probably wouldn't go.

    But, I did see Hancock for the QoS trailer, so I may give in and go see this next week.

    Its Will Smikth all the way with DC's Bond. It was that film with his son for CR, then Hancock for QOS (which I actually did go to see for the trailer) and now MIB3.

    I thought CR's teaser debuted with Da Vinci Code ?

    I went to the midnight opening of Men in Black 3 this morning and the Skyfall trailer wasn't shown! I'm glad I didn't wait to see it on the big screen.

    I agree. It was with The Da Vinci Code. The Pursuit of Happyness was not released until December of that year.

    I'm going to see MIB3 (because I want to see it and not because of the trailer although I am looking forward to seeing the preview) tomorrow. I'll hopefully see the SF trailer on the big screen for the first time. With my luck they won't even show it though. LOL.

    You right. I mixed it with the film, which followed after the Happiness trailer.

    I think its funny, the majority of the footage we've seen filming was people driving cars- there aren't any in the trailer. I guess there is more to the movie.

    You can see a little bit of car driving in the trailer. But yes, the most footage I saw was the train/car chase sequences, and Bond in the London Underground. So, don't fret, we most certainly have not seen everything.

    It's strange that the past three Bond trailers have been aired before a film starring Will Smith. Maybe it's in his contract somewhere, that if he can't be James Bond, at least he can star in the film that debuts the Bond trailers LOL!

    Some updates from my research:

    Agent Provocateur, as said in the trailer 'Agent: Provocateur' is a direct definition in the espionage world. It is an agent assigned to force an enemy of the state/group to commit an illegal act, presumably to bring them deserved justice. So basically an agitator attempting to force someone to do something they shouldn't.

    Found that interesting, may play into the plot.

    Also, about Bond 'missing shots' on the target, I tried to locate all the bullet holes:
    bulletintarget.png

    That's four total I could see. Assuming he used a PPK and it contains a 7 round magazine, he may have missed 3 completely.

    The mention of Agent Provocateur was simply for the words test, where Bond would say the first thing that came to his mind. It set a baseline for the big mention of "Skyfall", and really means nothing more in my eyes.

    I agree with you. It also creates a nice double entendre. In addition I always find the addition of french words in Bond films very fleminguesque.

    I saw the trailer last night with MIB3, but it was shown doubbed in german ~X( (they got an actor with a voice completely different from DC, and terrible acting). Good thing is it got everyone wispering (I could hear a few der neue Bond film!? around me), I think it was very well received. I could see a lot more detail in the big screen, the photography truly is amazing!!! And I was able to see the "missed shots" in the wall behind the target :-S

    Well, my hotly anticipated cinematic extravaganza didn't quite pan out. I had held out for almost a week to see the trailer for the first time in the cinema before MIB today and it wasn't even shown unless ofcourse I arrived too late. I did leave the bar in a hurry... :) I suspected this would happen.

    Cool preview. Like the contemporary electronic/dance club sounds towards the end. Ofcourse it only gives us a less than minuscule idea as to how good the film will actually be, to which I have my reservations, but a nice preview all the same.

    Dig the shot of BT tower in the background! :)

    How about the trailer with the traditional Casino Royale music? Well, your welcome :)
