The real "skinny" about trailers... [message #298437] Mo, 10 Juli 2006 16:54
Eric Grayson  
OK, since this has been brought up in another thread that degenerated
quickly into personal sniping, let me bring up the fact that there are
MULTIPLE trailers for many Bond releases that I know of, some with some
interesting footage in them, and I suspect a few that aren't on video
(these are all my notes from screening these on real 35mm)...

Dr. No: Original release trailer does not feature narration from
Connery or Bond at all, but instead features a narrator introducing the
character of James Bond to the audience. Makes special attention of
pointing out the tie, etc. An alternate, slightly later trailer is the
one mentioned here. Trailers for this film were printed on Eastman
color and have faded pink for the most part.

FRWL: The only trailer I know of is a trailer featuring the fight scene
prominently. This is a great trailer, and it uses a lot of what's best
in the movie. Printed in Technicolor, colors in good shape today.

Dr. No/FRWL reissue: Nothing spectacular here, but this trailer uses
footage from both films and uses the music from the John Barry Bond
theme single, rather than the music from Dr. No. Eastman/faded.

Goldfinger: A great trailer. Notable for the fact that we get to hear
Gert Frobe's voice in the "No, Mr. Bond, I expect you to die!" scene,
and that the shot of the Aston Martin wrecking is an outtake where the
car goes all the way through the prop wall. This is the only one I
know of for this film. Eastman/faded.

TB: There is a teaser and a straight trailer for this feature. As I
have only JUST acquired these for my collection, I haven't screened
them yet. Eastman/faded

TB/YOLT: There is a famous trailer here that contains a shot of Connery
with Lucianna Paluzzi saying, "Oh, the things I do for England," which
does not appear in the film. Eastman/faded.

YOLT: There appear to be two different trailers for this film, and I've
only seen the one. It's a good trailer that shows shots from all the
previous Bond pictures. First.... Then.... Next... Last, I think it
is. Technicolor/good color. There is also a Cinemascope version of
this trailer, which is the first one in the series printed this way as
far as I know.

--ASIDE: If you haven't seen the trailer for Operation Kid Brother, you
should... I put it on the same reel with all the Connery Bond pictures.
There are so many cameos from Bond people and the trailer's tag line is
priceless: Operation Kid Brother is too much... for one mother.
Technicolor/good color

OHMSS: A surprisingly lame trailer, highlighting Barry's music more
than anything else (and wisely). Eastman/faded.

Above it All: An interesting little 10 minute featurette showing the
making of OHMSS. I don't know whether it's on video or not (I dislike
the wimpy look of most DVDs). Focuses on the daring camerawork of
Johnny Jordan, a truly nutty guy who lost a leg during YOLT, dangled
from a helicopter in a diving suit at 10,000 feet in OHMSS, and died a
year later falling out of an open plane. Makes heavy use of the music
for Goldfinger for some reason. Eastman/faded.

DAF: There is a teaser for this film the contains footage that does not
appear in the film. The standard trailer has all footage from the
movie and it works fairly well. Eastman/faded.

LALD: I have this trailer but it's sitting in a stack of things I've
not screened. Fujicolor (a first for the Bonds), has held up fairly
well.

TMWTGG: Ditto down to the color stock.

----------------From here out, the trailers are available in flat
(1.85) and Cinemascope (2.35) aspect ratios.

TSWLM: There is a teaser for this that contains a little footage not in
the film, but the main trailer is all from shots in the film. Very
disco-influenced, goofy. Eastman/faded.

MR: An interesting trailer that hits on the uniqueness 007 and is a
little departure from the others. Interestingly, this trailer was
printed on a highly unstable type of Fuji film which has developed
black blotches on most prints. It is only the rarest exception that
doesn't have them.

FYEO: All stunts, little Moore. They've fixated on the idea that it's
the stunts that sell the film, and if you don't believe me, watch the
trailer. Of note is the fact that the voice of "Blofeld" in this
trailer is not remotely the same as the one in the film.
Eastman/faded.

OP: I have this one sitting in a stack of stuff I haven't looked at
either. On Eastman low-fade stock, a first for the series.

AVTAK: The teaser for this makes it look like a good movie, which is
amazing editing indeed. Again, we sell stunts, not character.

Everything from here out is in a stack of stuff I haven't gotten to
yet...

Is this the one with the British narration: "Different!" "New!"?

There's also another featurette focusing on the stock car chase.

--- Well, that's interesting. Which version did I see when I was a kid,
then? If I'm not mistaken, there often can be differing version for
North American and British audiences, as there sometimes are between
U.S. and Canadian showings. Also some films would begin playing one
trailer version during the promotional period and then, for whatever
reason, sometimes switch to another version before the film actually
appeared. The version you have would be exactly which?

--- Yes, this is really interesting. The reissue did include both
films in one, which I also saw, but as the double bill circulated
widely from second-run theater to second-run theater and drive-ins too,
there having been plenty of each back then, I'm at a loss as to which
version I saw where, because I did see them several times, both the
individual originals and the double bill versions.

--- Funny, I do belive I have that line in my taped copy of TB. It does
sound very familiar.

--- I remember seeing that one back then. Even saw the movie. Bad
movie. Though I wouldn't mind seeing it again just to remind myself
how bad it was. Some films just have that kind of character to them.

--- Yeah, that one didn't do much for me either as I mentioned in my
thread.

--- Phil viewed a version with Moore narrating, as Connery does in DN.
My version doesn't have that narration, but is disco-goofy. What about
yours?

--- I just re-viewed the copy I have on tape. It's not the original
reel of course, but if one pays more attention to the screen one can
see some black spots and the odd threads here and there, but on a 27
in. set, they're not all that apparent. The bland color is, though.

the 60s.

The one you saw was very likely the one I just described, which is the
one I have. These can be verified easily by checking the date codes on
the edge of the stock, and the one I have is 1962.

The double bill is in 1964.

The line sounds familiar because it IS in YOLT, but it is NOT in TB.

Mine does not have a narration from Moore. I've not seen one that does.

Well, I have about 200 trailers in 35mm that are waiting for me to look
at. Next up is the all Hammer Horror reel.

There are three mini-documentary's for OHMSS, 'Above It All' (Johnny
Jordan), 'Shot On Ice' (Stock car) and 'Swiss Movement'. I think all three
are on the new DVD

Hammer horror trailers? Too cool. The Anchor Bay DVD of "Scars of
Dracula" (or was it "Blood from the Mummy's Tomb"?) had a limited
edition run with an extra disc of Hammer trailers. Very entertaining,
old-school, exploitation, pack-'em-in-the-seats trailers. I envy you
getting to watch those trailers.

--- I caught it in the summer of '65, so it really must've made the
rounds, twice and thrice over between FRWL and GF. This back in the
days before there were any other options we presently have to view
them.
