    Finally got to watch the thing. Forgot my headphones so I couldn't watch it on my morning commute.

    Some notes:

    -I agree with what somebody else said about not building up to a climax. It did just kind of end.

    -That being said, wow, what a great trailer nevertheless. The OHMSS theme playing almost made me squeal. The dinner jacket, Waltz, the beautiful scenery. I really can't wait for this. We are in for a treat.

    _I remember back in 2012 when we were all hyped for Skyfall. While I still love that film, I've seen more from this one to have more confidence in it than I ever had in Skyfall. That makes me very excited.

    -Still can't wait to figure out how Quantum fits into all of this.

    Thanks marketto. I noticed the scarring in waltz right off. Not as obvious as Donald pleasance, but still unmistakable.

    I think that you are seeing things, friend.
    He doesn't get scarred until later

    Once I saw him in that outfit, I knew he'd be Blofeld. Of course he was probably forced to deny it.

    I wrote a trailer review. And it may read as a preposterous piece for many people in here. I admit that I already assume way way too much hehe. But, I was in the mood for some extensive writing hehe. So hell, here you go:
    One thing from the full theatrical trailer is clear, “SPECTRE” seems to be a much bigger production as compared to “Casino Royale” and “Skyfall”. Or perhaps it simply ‘feels’ bigger, and way more traditional. But never in a bad way.
    By: Gert Waterink ║ July 22nd 2015


    Whereas “Skyfall” was very much a sobre and smaller character-driven thriller that really indulged in Bond’s past (his childhood, parents), “M”s past (how Judi Dench ignited the 00-section, and its subsequent mistakes) and Silva’s past (the vengeful ex-MI6-agent), “SPECTRE” seems to be way more about the actual villain’s scheme in its plot and its action thereof. It does ‘feel’ bigger, because this new S.P.E.C.T.R.E.-syndicate is actually channelling Silva’s initial work as a cyber terrorist, but expands it to a much bigger scale. Hence we see a big lair (http://i.cubeupload.com/hjJX7h.jpg) occupied by many cyber-terrorists?

    And it doesn’t stop there. “SPECTRE” seems to be more focused on the action sequences. Obviously the Bond producers wanted to have more action in this film, but luckily it wasn’t simply ‘put there’ as sequences with no real link to the film’s coherent plot. There are at least three clearly identifiable (long) action sequences. From a "Bullitt"-esque car chase through the streets of Rome to helicopter fights in Mexican mid-air and an Austrian snow chase. And they don’t feel cheap. They have been filmed in a gritty realistic style. Perhaps some out-of-the-box-thinking took place, by actually drawing some inspiration from films like “On Her Majesty's Secret Service” and “Ronin”.

    The cinematography is truly breathtaking, Bond-esque, with slightly softer colours as opposed to “Skyfall”. Dutch cinematographer Hoyte van Hoytema obviously knows his work and captures the grandness of the early Bond classics with his wonderful choices for aerial shots and atmospheric colour filters.

    The traditional elements are back as well, but in a refined way. Yes, Bond’s new Aston Martin DB10 seems to have buttons for gadgets. We can actually see its flame throwers in action. But the gadgets seem to be part of a testing-phase. The buttons have been attached in a rather clumsy way on the luxury leather-coated dashboard (http://i.cubeupload.com/RP6Gsy.jpg & http://i.cubeupload.com/yQfOvi.jpg).

    Another example of ‘tradition’ is off course James Bond’s white dinner jacket, garnished with a red carnation (http://i.cubeupload.com/5opJQy.jpg). A reference to “Goldfinger” perhaps? And many other pre-1985 Bond films in which Bond was wearing a white dinner jacket on many occasions?

    Then there’s the trailer music, which is a feast for every Bond fan. And a true homage to John Barry. Not just a homage, because it actually features queues from the “On Her Majesty’s Secret Service”-theme (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7f8KXQtitbc).

    But foremost the personal and historical backgrounds of the characters haven’t been sacrificed by the bigger production size of this film. On the contrary, it seems good drama can go hand in hand with more exhilarating and memorable action and even better uttered one-liners (Bond to “M”: “I was taking some overdue holiday”). So the humour came back as well, perhaps in a better way.

    Compared to “Skyfall”, the “SPECTRE”-trailer has a more sinister feeling to it. The reason for that could be the presence of a larger antagonist band of actors. There is not just one villain in “SPECTRE”, there's one big well-organized Bilderberg-esque syndicate full of devoted members. We have henchman Hinx, who does know how to pop out an eye (literally, as you can see here http://i.cubeupload.com/i2EV7o.jpg). And as opposed to Jaws or Oddjob, Hinx seems to be a more gruesome, more cruel sinister bodyguard, who is the executioner of the less refined jobs (referring to the first “E” in the acronym).

    Then there is the mysterious Dr Vogel, who has also an important seat at the S.P.E.C.T.R.E.-conference table (http://i.cubeupload.com/kvJoLm.jpg and http://i.cubeupload.com/n53tQO.jpg). She is played by British actress Brigitte Millar. But so far cast information about her character has been kept secret. Could she be the ‘Rosa Klebb’ of the film?

    And what about Andrew Scott’s character Max Denbigh, who’s being called “C” of the Centre For National Security. Is he playing a double role? There are some rumours he could actually be Ernst Stavro Blofeld (http://i.cubeupload.com/WqF6j8.jpg). One needs to understand that the character Blofeld should possibly re-appear in future Bond films, so big A-listed actors are perhaps not that willing to sign up for the same role in more Bond films. Hence Andrew Scott? Time will tell.

    Like with the first teaser trailer of “SPECTRE”, also this full theatrical trailer seems to be a near perfect edited little movie. It is off course more spoiler-ish than a teaser trailer, but the different nature of “SPECTRE” (more action, more traditional Bond, more humour, big, bigger, biggest) makes the film stand out in this full trailer.

    Where “Skyfall” seemed to be Daniel Craig’s “From Russia With Love” in tone and style, “SPECTRE” seems to be the “Thunderball” of Craig’s tenure. Its $300 Million production budget for me, so far, seems completely justified.

    This film also should feel completely satisfactory, because during the course of 4 Bond productions, every aspect of the franchise has been re-introduced in a slow, well dosed way. No, we didn’t get Bond on a clear-cut mission, assisted by “Q” and his gadgets, fighting Blofeld, all in just one film. It all happened much slower…..thus way more satisfactory. And “SPECTRE” is the next slow step; a more clear-cut Bond mission full of Hitchcock-ian mystery, memorable plot-driven action, again a bit more humour and sinister goosebump-inducing events and secrets.

    Welcome back James Bond! And we’re welcoming you even bigger next November 6th!

    Wait a minute...

    Is the woman turning around at :25 (at Mi6?) the same female SPECTRE agent at 1:16 ????

    The "mysterious" Dr. Vogel? Is this her?

    So I woke up around 3 am EST last night to watch this thing once and go back to sleep. That was a mistake - I was up until 4:30 or so watching it at least 10 or so times.
    I love this. I think QoS is underrated, and SF is a bit overrated (with CR being one of my top 3 of all time), but this film looks incredible. The white dinner jacket, Blofeld, Craig looks to be in top form yet again, the varying locations, the OHMSS theme, etc. Hearing the OHMSS theme brought a massive smile across my face. Its clearly the OHMSS theme, but sound darker and more ominous than Barry's original. I'd love to hear the 007 theme or Mr. Kiss Kiss Bang Bang make an appearance in the modern Bond films.
    My only real issue is that Bond seems to go off on his own yet again, but based on the events of the trailer I'd have to guess this is pretty similar to OHMSS. Bond goes off on his own after Quantum in Mexico City (like Bond did with Blofeld/SPECTRE in OHMSS), comes back to meet M who threatens him with his job (hence Moneypenny's line about "I've heard you might be finished", goes off to track down White and learn more about the Quantum/SPECTRE connection.

    I can't understand how some people can be so damn picky about the trailer as if they expected something absolutely perfect. Some people are never happy.

    For those also wanting to pick this trailer apart - I'm uploading a set of hi-res (without the YouTube compression) screencaps right now....

    I'm curious, with the OHMSS theme so clear within the soundtrack, how do credits work?
  • edited July 2015 Posts: 11,425
    Excellent trailer, I thought. Not giving too much away, but still suggesting an intriguing story. This trailer has left me feeling more optimistic about SP than any Bond trailer I have seen for a very long time. I'm quietly confident that, from perspective at least, this film is going to be a success. So far, there is nothing really I've seen or heard about SP that I don't like.

    I absolutely love the inclusion of the Day of the Dead scenes in Mexico City - I've been praying for this kind of thing for years. M back in his traditional office. Loving the sight of DC with an older woman rather than just the usual twenty-something.

    I'm also very pleased with how this seems to be wrapping up a lot of the loose ends from QoS (which, as I've always said, is a seriously underrated entry in the series).

    I clocked the OHMSS reference straight away in the music, but suspect this is just something written for the trailer and in no way reflects the actual score. Here's hoping Newman really pulls his finger out for this one.

    I will now assiduously avoid any more spoilers until the film comes out, to maximise my enjoyment on the day.

    My work starts about 10 minutes before the trailer drops, so I'll have to decide between watching it on my phone in the bathroom or waiting the entire day and watch it at home in all it's HD glory on my TV...
    That's what I did, signal was too poor to watch on my phone during lunch, so had it on my HD TV when I got home - hooking it up to my projector tonight to watch it even bigger and better.

    I have made it no secret I just wanted Quantum to be it's own thing and now with Quantum merging into Spectre in this film I was wary but honestly in watching the second trailer Mendes convinced me that this is not only smart it's the right thing to do... What Can I say bring on November.

    So Oberhauser (Waltz) was adopted by ski instructor Oberhauser and became a bit like Bond's brother. Till both grew up seperate ways, Waltz's Oberhauser discovers his real name (Blofeld) and past.

    Anyone seen Austin Powers in Goldmember?

    Anybody spot the excellent easter egg in the trailer? Bond is standing in the ruined MI6 building looking at the Memorial Wall for fallen MI6 agents. I googled the names and they seem to be staff who have worked on the Bond films over the years. Excellent tribute to them!
    Good find.
    For those not noticing the OHMMS theme. It's there from 1:12 to 1:24 and from 1:44 to 1:53.
