  Saw this a few days ago: Lazy and crappy. I hope this is just some kind of product partner poster or something.

  Bad, except I like the pic of the Aston.

  A quad format version- even worse:

  Hopefully it is just a partner promotion thing. It's so nasty and tacky.

  I'm not crazy about the poster, but at least it's more than an atmospheric minimalist approach, which I find about as tedious. In some ways, it's the photoshopped version of some of the earlier painted Bond posters, though nowhere in the same league. It does seem to be part of some larger promotion.

  Yet more new posters, which are much more stylish:

  Absolutely. The two with Vesper and Solange are very classy.

  Ugh? Lazy and crappy? You guys surprise me. That was the international poster ben bought the other day, and he said on another thread, in person it was extremely cool.

  These look pretty cool to me; the 'montage' versions are a bit more traditional, which I don't think is necessary (I really liked the teaser poster and the couple which followed).
  
  I agree about the gun melting into the ice for DAD, ben; very cool, that.

  Well, as Ben says; it isn't; and it's lazy and therefore crappy because it's just some meaningless photos dropped into the gunbarrel. How much thought did that take? Nothing ties together with the result being a mess. I don't think it's a proper release poster though, so I'm not worried.
  
  These new girls posters are actually original and stylish, contrastingly.

  Now this one I like the most of them all. The Black and White Bond is unique for a movie poster...gives a good egde to the image. Vesper striking a pose reminds me a bit too much of Electra in the TWINE poster.
  
  So far, these concepts show all the imagination that went into LTK's US release...pretty dull stuff IMO.

  I agree. I'd prefer it if they gave us a retro DAF/LADL/TMWTGG/TSWLM collage type poster. Now THAT would be far more interesting.

  I'm glad they didn't. We've been there many times before- just one stylish image is enough for me and is much more up to date. You don't have to throw the kitchen sink in to make a good poster. These work well for me.

  Oh yeah, those ones on ebay are swell, haven't seen them before...I mean the group of three, not that first one with the gun barrel, which is just really really ugh.

  For the nostalgic factor, I'd still love to see an old replica of something like the drawn TMWTGG poster made similar for CR, but I do appreciate that audiences now may not like this. Maybe I'm just getting old.....
