    I was actually watching UNCLE before I had any real idea who Bond was.

    Yep. It's a great theme. Got the box set but the one film I'm missing and really want is "The Spy in the Green Hat" with Jack Palance. Love that movie. As a side note ALL the themes from the Spy genre in the 60's are brilliant. MI,I Spy,The Avengers (Emma Peel) era to name a few. :)

    I noticed this week in the UK " The True Entertainment " channel is showing
    The first Steed and Mrs Peel series.

    So that's 8pm eastern time.

    Where do we find the trailer?

    I'm guessing the official Warner Bros. website.

    re: trailer. I know two Henry Cavill sites -- Henry Cavill News and Henry Cavill.org -- will likely have it embedded shortly after 8 p.m. I would also think it'd be on the official Warner Bros. site.

    People and Entertainment Weekly have stories about the movie, just hours before release of the trailer. This post has links to both

    The helicopter behind Alicia is the very same one from"Goldfinger" that Pussy Galore used.

    By jolly, these shots are awesome!!!! Now I think THIS film will be oozing Bond-esque class, not "Kingsman". I adore the gun pose of Henry Cavill as secret agent (Ian Fleming's ;-)) Mr Solo. Marvellous! I know have a serious "Henri Cavill could actually be the future 7th James Bond"-feeling =P~ . Just....a bit ;-).

    The Pussy Galore helicopter. Awesome. Was it in storage or something, just waiting to be dusted off?
    There is no doubt Napoleon Solo is a high class of hero.
    Cavill does seem to have Vaughn's facial expression pretty close.
    The girls look real good too.
    One thing original Uncle had was bevy of girls, both good and fatale.

    The UNCLE film is definitely a throw back to the golden age of spy thrillers of the 60's.
  • bondjamesbondjames You were expecting someone else?

    Looks like Henry Cavill will get his chance to be Bondesque after all. I wonder if EON will have any regrets after this.

    I don't know what Armie Hammer is doing in this however. He's screwed up a few films so I hope he doesn't mess this one up too.

    In all honest, Henry Cavill is by looks more of a model compared to all 6 Bond actors that we know right now. Even Sean Connery had rather unique looks, whereas Henry Cavill does have the looks of a male Armani model.

    So I don't think EON has any regrets :-). Although he could bring in even more female crowds. But let's see how Cavill portrays Solo first.

    Cavill does indeed look very Bondesque ,but Now I can't see him ever
    Getting Bond.

    Debicki looks great as a 60's femme fatale.

    I love the teaser poster. Very Bond-ish. Stylish, but luckily not as cheesy as the "Kingsman" posters.
