James Bond movies have often relied on short
television commercials, AKA TV spots, to promote the latest cinematic
offerings. As part of the ill-fated marketing campaign for Timothy
Dalton's second and final out as 007 in 'Licence To Kill', American
audiences were blasted with a snappily cut 30 second montage
of action.
The spot is notable for the series' first use
of a CGI gun logo and gun barrel animation.
"This summer, try skin
diving. Try sky diving. Try water skiing. Try keeping up with
Bond. Timothy Dalton is James Bond 007 - Licence To Kill. Rated
PG-13. Starts Friday July 14th at theatres everywhere."
