London Riots Shadowed In New Mission Impossible Promo Image

Considering everything that's going on in London at the moment I'm not sure the below image has really been released at the appropriate time...


This is the new promo image for Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol that Paramount Pictures released today. Showing a hooded Tom Cruise with fire and smoke behind him, it looks a bit too similar to the news footage of the riots in London currently taking place... Personally I think this is particularly bad timing and if I were in marketing department I'd have waited for all the turmoil in London to quieten down before pushing this.

Bad timing? What do you think?
