Skyfall is definitely gaining its marketing power and it hits the tipping point with the recent "leak" of the theme song from non-other than the Diva, Adele! I've listened to the song for countless times now and I am still addicted to it. ;-)

On top of my recent sharing of the compilation for this 50 years movie franchise (if you have missed it earlier, click on Your Ultimate 007 (James Bond) Guide [Slide] to view the 29 pages of my compilation), I managed to curate a number of new video featurettes and theme song (full version).

New Trailers : Skyfall - 23rd James Bond Movie (Nov 2012)

James Bond: "Everyone needs a hobby"
Villain: "So, what's yours?"
James Bond: "Resurrection"

I especially like the above conversion at 1.51 min of the trailer, it sets the tone of the upcoming 23rd James Bond movie, Skyfall (the 3rd by Daniel Craig). From the cool and explosive trailer, it seems that the plot will be revolve around M, James Bond's boss (Judi Dench) and the nemesis will be a very personal one.

Another piece of good news is that Skyfall will be released in IMAX format, in Nov 2012 (earlier released in Europe in late Oct 2012).  

Enjoy!

Following are the movie poster and movie stills from Skyfall:
