	Now on the CBn main page... New UK 'Quantum' Quad Emerges Second teaser poster for the upcoming film Second 'Quantum of Solace' Teaser Poster Available For Purchase Buy online at moviemarket.co.uk This has been highlighted as the latest Quad for QoS. Anyone else seen it? Is it legit? It has been highlighted by a poster dealer so the references are ok. Otherwise, in the trailer, he was wearing glasses, so something looks a little off with his face. What do you think. (If legit, I also feel duty bound to own up to not believing they would use this image as the next poster) Attached File(s) QoS_Quad.jpg ( 21.47k ) Number of downloads: 553 ________________________________________________ "I think he's attempting re-entry sir"

	It may be legit. I agree, the face looks iffy, seems like a big body and tiny head to me. Something looks off anyway. I'm not sure about the direction in which they're going; we've had a poster similar to this one with the teaser poster. They're certainly flogging this 'Bond with sub machine gun' image, which also featured predominantly in with the recently released teaser trailer. I'd like something a bit different. Variety is always a good thing.

	It looks as though the whiteness of the desert light does not have the same effect on his face as the rest of the surroundings. In fact, I would have thought they could have played upon the white heat to greater effect to mask his face perhaps. ________________________________________________ "I think he's attempting re-entry sir"

	I get that they’re trying to evoke Bond’s emotions with these stark grey tones, but it just isn’t alluring on the eye. The CR posters at the end became infatuated with it as well. I can tolerate it with the QoS teaser poster, but the entire poster campaign best not be of the same template. I am hoping for something similar to the CR teaser poster. Just something other than Bond, or his silhouette, standing with a sub machine gun.

	Looks a bit fake to me, to be honest.

	If they are going for that image, I would have preferred that they used the actual colours from the trailer and not gone all grey with it. Some people just want to watch the world burn.

	It definitely is real, I've seen it up close.

I'm sure it looks better in person though. Right? I'm not liking it either. The image of Bond with that weapon is wearing thin, as it's been used as the first teaser poster and also prominently in the other marketing for the film.

	Yeah, the blue sky and perhaps some artistry to actually hide his image more through desert heat haze. His hand as well as face look weird, the shadow on the hand does not match that on his face. I am reminded of DAD posters with wonky silencers and then the Speed take with short arms for both Brosnan and Berry... ________________________________________________ "I think he's attempting re-entry sir"

This image is being sold as a fridge magnet on ebay... but with the shades on.
