Quantum Of Solace

[Agent0028]

That would have been cool for it to have been SPECTRE. So long as it wasn't being run by Blofeld's one breasted daughter....

Connery in Diamonds Are Forever or You Only Live Twice is pretty much on par with Moore, as far as I'm concerned. If Craig keeps it up, he will own the role in a way that nobody has since Goldfinger.

Agreed. Craig IS Bond . Nice to finally see some realism in the mix.

I miss Q. Hells bells I named my cat Q. Bring back our gadget man...and Moneypenny.

Well they did say SPECTRE won't be in these movies. Sure they still could have surprised us.

I can't wait for this movie.

I agree as well, I have been a Bond fanboy for a long time. And I was always one of those Connery junkies that swore up and down that no one would ever be able to top his performance in the role. Craig proved me wrong.

He is without a doubt, the best Bond ever. He doesn't downplay it or cheapen it with cheesy lines. He owns the role, as soon as the film began I believed in him. He pulled it off, as if he had lived that character all his life.

I'm really excited to see if he can continue that passion and give us many many more awesome Bond films in the future.

Just got done watching CR on Showtime in glorious HD.

Ah. Eva Green.



Kick ass opening song, too.

I wish Andy would sculpt Vesper and Le Chiffre heads.

You hear me Andy?

 

[Agent0028]

It is an awesome song.

Le Chiffre was the only problem I had with Casino Royale. He wasn't much of a villain and more of a whipping boy for the bigger baddies.

Wasn't there a monorail involved, as well? It's been a while since I read that book.

Maybe, the house being an exact replica of Tara from Gone With the Wind is the other part that stands out in my mind. Been awhile since I read it too.

Craig seems like the most physical actor to play Bond so far. I can't imagine even Connery doing some of the stuff Craig did in the Madagascar sequence in Casino Royale. He even looks good and tough running--if I was a bad guy, I wouldn't want to look up from my henchman work and see this coming at me:

 

[DarkArtist81]

You got that right. It reminds me of The Venture Brothers. That sequence where you saw through the eyes of one of The Monarch's henchmen as Brock chased him down and broke his neck.

I'm sure it's close to the same kind of experience.

I think that Craig is problably the best BOND so far after Brosnan.

Nice sneakers!

 

[JGouse0498]

Nice sneakers!

LOL

Seriously though, I like that he's wearing sneakers there. Too many times, Bond is doing all of this acrobatic crap wearing freakin' tuxedos. It was especially bad during the Brosnan era. No way someone's running long distances in formal wear. This looks and feels more practical and realistic.

not sure if this has been posted anywhere .page with youtube trailers

 

[Buttmunch]

Those look like fan made fakes.

BUMMER... Glad the guy is okay. Hopefully won't cause any delays in filming.

James Bond Film Car Plunges Into Lake
April 19, 2008, 8:32 PM EST
ROME (AP) -- The car being used in the latest James Bond film plunged into a lake in northern Italy while being driven to the set.

Producers say the driver of the Aston Martin was taken to a hospital with minor injuries. They say James Bond's iconic car was being delivered to the filming unit in heavy rain on Saturday morning when it went off the road and plunged into Lake Garda.

Italian state TV has shown footage of the smashed, black car being hoisted out of the water.

"Quantum of Solace" is the newest film in the 007 series. It stars Daniel Craig and is due for release later this year.
