I will keep an eye on whatever Empire Design put out on their own site and social media. If they've been involved, you'd think they would post it.
Haha, good point!
Personally I think the "No Time To Die" teaser is very nice, composition-wise, font-wise and color-wise. And frankly, I think it harks a bit back to the way Daniel Craig looked in his first teaser poster for "Casino Royale". That's the case with the (dark)turqoise colors as well.
I also like it that the photography for "NTTD" is more realistic than the "SPECTRE" teaser poster. You can see that agent 007 has aged through the years, which I like. Here's a collage I made, so you can compare for yourself::
In a way, the pentalogy of teaser posters look remarkably coherent. In a way that they enhance the pentalogy characteristics as well.
Down below four other teaser posters of recent action films and thrillers. They are lovely too. But they are definitely devoid of Bond elements, so they more or less need to enhance extra elements of the franchise formula than with Bond:
Regardless of what one may think of the poster, amongst all the others for the Craig era, it's probably the most eye catching
This hasn't been a divided reaction, as the majority didn't like the poster. I do hope the trailer divides or wins people. They need a win for this. Many people say they don't need the fan base, that this is a product unlike any other. I used to listen to the same arguments regarding SW - and I'm not a fan, just an observer. And now they're on deep shtrouble, having shunned the fan base. Granted, I feel that EON's doing the exact opposite, and are still catering to fans. I know this because I've been following the production. They're really focusing on making a great film. And that's enough for me. I just wish they'd put some effort on the poster, as they did for CR, when they had to sell Craig as Bond.
In the end, they have their own ideas of what is cool and what's not, and we must roll with them, because they're the artists behind it - not talking about the producers here, it was Greg Williams decision to use that photo.
I must say I was disappointed more because we didn't get the teaser trailer. I didn't care that much about the teaser poster. Never do, as bar the CR one, I always like the main posters more. I wish we'd gotten the damn bit of footage we're all craving for. So it's back to the waiting game. No prob by me. Fingers crossed for next week ;)
With a better photo , the reaction to this poster would be more positive.
Actually it's one of the first things that pop up in my mind when someone mentions "Bond".
I agree. It's colorful and vibrant. Brave enough to flaunt the new title in it's full glory with the upmost confidence. More confident than QoS's teaser which looks too embarrassed and ashamed to even mention the film's title.
Well , obviously this is subjective, but comparing one bad photo to another bad photo doesn’t validate it. I don’t think any of the posters for Craig’s films have done him justice.
Add me to that. It really isn't a good start, but I have faith that they'll pull someyhing special out of the bag for the next one. I'd hate for NTTD to be the only Craig film to not have a poster on my wall.
I feel the same. And it's pleasantly retro, that boldness to smack the title right in front of everything. That, I love.
Indeed. The retro feel is no doubt very intentional; as the guy who did the title design wrote on Twitter: "A fitting, nostalgic, throwback to a film series that has increasingly paid tribute to it's roots."
That doesn't say much to us right now, but we've seen signs of a production that isn't shy of being nostalgic – most notably with the two (!) vintage Aston's featuring prominently in the clips and photos we've seen of the production so far.
On a side note, I also find it a bit funny that while the opinions of the title itself has been…divided, the promotional material has gone all out of displaying the title as prominently as possible. Seems like EON are confident with the title.
Same. It seems to be the focus of the marketing, and I expect it to be the case across most media.
+1
Russian poster.
Bulgarian poster.
German poster.
That's a very nice collage. Very cool to see them all. I actually like the teaser when set beside the others. Well done, @GertGettler. Thank you. Also, fun to see Craig from the past looking at Craig from now. It only works when in that particular order, still...cool.
That would be a fair guess under the circumstances however SF covered that imagery (death, resurrection etc.) quite bluntly, so I'd imagine they'll try and avoid visually repeating that.
