New Skyfall Trailer Reveals Key Plot Points for Bond Film

It's a good week for James Bond fans: First Daniel Craig parachuted into the Olympic opening ceremony, and now a new trailer for the upcoming 007 film Skyfall has hit the web.

Fans of the Bond franchise have received a few teasers, but this is the first official trailer that reveals details about the plot -- about which director Sam Mendes has been tight-lipped. James Bond appears to be killed by a sniper, and M (Judi Dench) is shown writing his obituary, which ends up being unneccessary because Bond comes back to life -- and that's only in the trailer!

Skyfall hits theaters in the fall, coincidentally around the 50th anniversary of the first Bond film Dr. No.
