    I’m betting that we get the first teaser will be this Sat, October 5th!

    Sorry everyone. For some reason when I post from my phone it does it numerous times

    I don't want to upset anyone but, searching the BBFC website I found that;

    The BBFC decision for the Spectre teaser was 18 March 2015, but it wasn't released until 27 March released, 10 days between them.
    https://bbfc.co.uk/releases/spectre-2015

    The BBFC decision for the Skyfall teaser was 10 May 2012, but it wasn't released until 21 May 2012, 11 days later.
    https://bbfc.co.uk/releases/skyfall-film-0

    So, based on that, the NTTD teaser can't be appearing soon, not for 10-12 days at least.

    I've checked DC's other two films and Casino Royale's 1m 15sec teaser trailer came out 4 May 2006 after being approved by the BBFC 7 days earlier on 28 April. https://bbfc.co.uk/releases/casino-royale-2006-1

    However, Quantum of Solace's teaser is the anomaly. It came out 28 July 2008, but the BBFC website says it was approved on 27 August 2008, a month later. https://bbfc.co.uk/releases/quantum-solace-3

    On the balance of evidence though it would seem that it's at least seven days from now, assuming BBFC announce a decision today, before we get the NTTD teaser.

    I'm surprised Grace Randolph of Beyond the trailer Youtube channel thinks the teaser is out this week, maybe she is assuming the fans know better?

    Poster for no time to die has been released.
    Thoughts?
    People think it'd quite bland and uninspired on other forums.

    It‘s a nice picture of DC but as an official teaser? Not quite, SP was better teaser-wise...
    The name is Walker by the way.

    Check it out, you won’t be disappointed :)

    Out of all the backgrounds they could have chosen (or should I say photoshopped Craig onto), they picked that one?! The whole thing looks very fan made.
  • JTMJTM Posts: 3,027MI6 Agent
    Also, others may like it the way it is now but regarding the tile design, I really don't understand the point of stacking the words so unconventionally when they're not even going to utilise the double O's for a 007—instead it's just stuck next to the "To".

    Looks like a production still (from the Cuba set?) that they just threw the logo over.

    Reminds me of the Licence To Kill marketing. But that was rushed. And even that teaser poster was better.

    It’s fine. There hasn’t been a good teaser poster since CR. They all lack imagination. Hopefully the theatrical poster is more creative and this one is just reminding everyone that Daniel Craig, not Idris Elba, is in fact still playing James Bond.

    Bloody awful...whoever decided on using that image should be given their P45 immediately X-(

    I concur, this poster is horrid

    I like the shades of blue (not grey :v ) and the texture of the wall. I also like the font. What I don't like is the photo of Craig. He looks to the side, making him look uniterested. They should have used a photo where he's looking stright into the camera, taking full advantage of his piercing eyes. I'd say it's a mediocre poster.
    I hope we get another poster later that's drawn by an artist.

    Afraid I’m in the ‘meh’ camp. I’ve been trying to avoid a lot of the discussion, spoilers and on-set photos etc going round to try and keep my knowledge of the film to a minimum. So this teaser poster is a major part of the publicity to the film for me. And I’m afraid it does nothing for me. Of course I’m excited for B25, but this poster doesn’t ‘get me excited’. It’s Bond stood against a wall. Looking fed up. Let’s hope a trailer appears soon.
    ‘Secret Agent?? On whose side?’

    I think some of the fan posters have been much better. Maybe that is the point, they are just not going to bother competing with the fan posters and so why not produce something middle of the road that won't discourage more fan posters and all the social media traction that they get.

    On another topic. The cars. The Aston Martin tweet shows four cars.

    We've seen the

    in scenes, but where does the Superleggera fit in?

    A member of the Other Place suggested a photo of Bond with the spear gun in the Bahamas would be better, or even just a photo of the speargun on the beach. I agree that could have been better. It would stand out more.

    Very interesting that he's in his Tuxedo in Cuba. Makes me wonder why he's in his Tux?

    I was hoping it was a fake.....but it's not unfortunately. It's a nice picture of Craig but would have been much better IMO, if it would have shown a weapon in his hand. Fortunately the folks who do this sort of thing don't write, produce and direct the films...that being said, somebody at the top had to approve it. It's not that it's really that bad, it just seems that it would not have been very hard to do something much better. I guess may be the rationale behind the teaser is to show Craig looking good as Bond. The problem with this kind of stuff these days is that the artistic/creative/human element has been replaced with analysis of metrics ie a bunch of people with computers and numbers deciding on what works. Yeesh. :#

    I hear you, but it’s not an excuse. Plenty of films, including blockbusters, have much better posters. This is no different than the still they released from London. This just includes the title. It’s basically just an official image from the film. A “poster” denotes an artistic element that’s completely absent here.

    It's like the Mona Lisa. What is Bond looking at?

    It looks like he sees someone defecating from the rooftop. Or maybe he sees an Ikea and gets some bad thoughts about coffee tables.
    Well, Happy 007 day, everybody...

    Thank you! After reading Nuber24's post I thought something with the spear gun would be cool. :)

    That’s significantly better than the NTTD poster. Come to think of it, the Omega ad with Craig in the dinner jacket half under water was also far superior in concept (although he looks better now that he’s in shape).

    Well.....at least it's just a teaser poster. Hopefully the next posters will be better.
