With every Bond movie comes a title sequence theme song. For Bond 23 aka Skyfall, the Grammy-award winning sensation Adele was chosen to produce the latest 007 track. She collaborated with producer Paul Epworth, the man who helped her turn “Rolling In The Deep” into the massive hit it has become. Adele’s vocals shine in this composition definitely worthy of the James Bond seal of approvement. What do you think? Thumbs up? Purchase the track at iTunes.

Skyfall opens November 9. And while you’re here, check out some snazzy posters in the gallery below.

Shortly after Daniel Craig as James Bond escorted the Queen of England to the Olympics in this highly entertaining clip, NBC aired this new teaser for the upcoming 007 flick Skyfall. Though it mostly contains selections from the previously releases teaser trailer, there are some new shots featured here including a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it look at the movie’s antagonist Raoul Silva played by Javier Bardem and a stunning action sequence that is only slightly tongue-and-cheek there at the end.

Skyfall is out November 9.

Update: Jump after the break to find two new Skyfall trailers; they’re the best ones yet packed with jaw-dropping action sequences and our first real acquaintance with Bardem’s Silva. They are domestic and international versions of the same trailer, with only slight differences here and there. Discern them after the break.

Director Sam Mendes talks in Bond ‘Skyfall’ video blog

Movies, News, Video, , , , , ,

This will likely be the first of many video blogs from the set of the 23rd James Bond film Skyfall. In this one director Sam Mendes talks about shooting for the first time in England, and we even get a couple of glimpses of Daniel Craig as Bond in action. What’s the location, exactly? That’s still being kept under wraps, but if you have a keen eye and a solid memory this image should spark a fuse in your noggin.

Sure this one-and-a-half minute vlog is no Peter Jackson presenting The Hobbit masterpiece, but at least it introduces us to the next movie in the Bond franchise and teases a broader look behind the scenes in the future. Skyfall releases November 9, and in related news, it will be the first Bond film to hit IMAX theatres. According to a press release, “the IMAX release of Skyfall will be digitally re-mastered into the image and sound quality of The IMAX Experience with proprietary IMAX DMR (Digital Re-mastering) technology.” So in other words Mendes will not shoot scenes made for IMAX (like Chris Nolan has done in his Batman movies), but nevertheless this is an exciting treat for fans of the long-running franchise. Bond will certainly took good on the giant screen.
