The fashion has been yet another disastrous part of the Craig films. I can't remember where I read it now, but I recall an article from a few months ago where someone from the actual production criticized the wardrobe choices of the previous Craig films and stated that this would be much improved in NTTD. One of the problems indicated was that Craig's suits and tuxedos are way too tight. While some of the outfits look okay in the NTTD trailer, I agree that this poster looks awful and Bond should never under any circumstance be as poorly dressed as that. That poster is awful too. It looks way too dark and misrepresents the actual tone of the film. He wasn't a strong father, so his son had no direction and discipline and will be a useless adult who will likely squander all of his wealth. Nolan is shit. Terrible filmmaker and artist. An imposter. I think this franchise could be on the same level as Bond if they just made standalone films and didn't reboot every five to ten years. They could just make a new film each time with a new villain. How many times do we need to see Bruce's parents get killed? It's so tiring. I'm not sure what the plan for this reboot is, but hopefully they aren't starting all over again. Just make a freakin' Batman movie, I don't know why this is so complicated. But the answer to "why" is that mainstream morons are dumb enough to pay to see this even though Nolan's trilogy ended just a few short years ago. It looks almost identical to Batman Begins, but nothing could be worse than any Nolan crap. The only colours I saw in this trailer were orange and teal... I'll be pirate baying this one. Would have been happy to pay for it, but then they went full retard and continued the Spectre canon, so that's their loss. I watched the film recently because it seemed like the type of thing I would enjoy. I thought it was so bad that I would give it a 1/10, so I'm not optimistic about the TV series if fans are saying they thought that even the film was good. Is the series as bad as the film is? Maybe they don't have much influence anymore, but Brexit has only increased whatever influence they wield now and into the future. What influence could they ever have being one small part of the EU? Now they are free and independent, for better or worse, but at least they will succeed or fail on their own merits now, and not just succumb to whatever the EU's agenda is. I agree the trailer was awful and hints at some really troubling plot lines. Like all of Miyazaki's work, it is visually stunning but completely empty. She's clearly a Trojan Horse candidate. Their first appearance together is today, so today is when he will get creepy with her. A View to a Kill has drastic shifts in tone, from very dark to very light. The reshaping of the human body with modern technology. It's very shallow compared to a film like Exotica. I thought this was going to be similar in the sense that there are deeper themes beyond the main plot point (the bus accident in this or the murder in Exotica), but it's literally just about the accident with some bizarre unresolved incest and drug addition subplot tacked on to it. Even worse, the characters were not interesting at all. I don't think that only Egoyan's earlier films are better than this though. Even some of his more recent ones are. Me too. NTTD probably won't be the last one either.
