Quantum of Solace

Sweet merciful crap, this trailer looks fantastic.

I had my doubts about Daniel Craig as Bond before Casino Royale came out, but he did a very good job in that. And Quantum of Solace looks like it'll put him up at the top of the Bond actor list, right under Connery.

Seriously, go watch the trailer. I hope Craig sticks around for many more Bond films to come.

    I saw the preview and I have to say I'm way more pumped for this one than I was for Casino Royal.

    Well I heard some rumour ages ago that the studio execs loved it so much they gave them more money to do more explosions.

    So I am hoping this is not the case.

    Though if they remove the really just weird torture scenes I would not complain.

    It's the first true bond sequel! It actually has continuity!

    Also, let's be honest -- there's an impulse to call connery the best simply because he was the first, but craig is way better. Just a flat-out better actor and man is he hotter i mean damn did you see those abs.

    Casino Royale was easily the best Bond movie and I am phenomenally excited for the new one.

    Im super excited for this, I think Craig plays a great version of Bond. He's much more troubled and tortured than previous incarnations.

    Actually David Niven was the first.

    Connery was just the first of the EON franchise

    The only way that part could be better is if he was shooting a gun at the same time

    oh, and if some random girl was blowing him

    This is an interesting argument.

    Really Goldeneye was very good, maybe purely because Bean was in it.

    It's kind of the patern though with the Bond movies, every time there is a new Bond it is excellent, then as time goes on the movies just become parodies of themselves until we end up with the later Roger Moore movies and Die Another Day.

    the fact that it's basically as direct a sequel as possible is also interesting

    like it literally picks up where the last one ended

    it's even implied in the trailer that he's so consumed with revenge he goes rogue and M suspends his shit

    this is Bond on a personal mission

    he's not trying to prevent missiles launching nerve gas into geneva

    he's out to fucking kill some fucking dudes

    which is pretty awesome

    The only question at this point is how they will up the torture ante from Casino Royale

    where do you go after testicle torture; honestly, what's left

    yeah pretty much

    i mean

    seriously he gets whipped in the balls with a heavy rope

    there's kinda

    i mean seriously

    unless you go right into hostel territory i don't see that getting upped

    also it makes more believable if there's ever another scene of Bond getting tortured and he's still flippant.

    "mister bond, i am going to pull out your fingernails here, this will be very painful"

    hahaha whatever
