Fantastic news.
I hope the idiot at EW who wrote that "Is James Bond dead?" article feels like a total dumbass right now.

I simply ask for more elaborate and creative action sequences, intellectually compelling love interests, morally questionable actions and manly testicle crushing scenes, please.Solo said:

Campbell will probably be too busy with a Green Lantern sequel to work on Bond. I hope they start getting some more directors in the series though. I know most would LOVE a chance to work on Bond.

YESS! But damn 2012 November is far off, and right smack in the middle of Presidential elections. Hopefully its couple of weeks after Nov 2.

I'm just hoping we visit more interesting locales at least. If we're not going to get a script up to Casino Royale's quality, at least give me something that matches its locations.

You now want to watch CR again.
DUDE. QoS had the most location shooting of the entire series. Thats why it was so crazy expensive. They shot everywhere, including a lot of locations which have never been seen in film for the most part. Bag on QoS for anything you like, but not this!

Will Bond 23 go after the other members from that organization? I do recall that guy at the end of the QoS was just one of many others.

Sometimes people say things that are wrong, and unfortunately these false statements tend to travel a wee bit further than things that are more accurate.

Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.

Its worth a rent for sure, as its a fun movie, but its absolutely one of the least impressive Bond films (in my opinion). It's basically The Big Budget Adventures of James Bourne.

It's really a direct sequel to CR which is new and besides that it wasn't that great of a movie.
I still enjoyed it, but was expecting much more.

I'm not talking about the amount of locations, I'm talking about the types of locations. Casino Royale had beautiful locations - every single one of them could have held the entire film in that one location and I would have been happy. The whole jet-hopping aspect of Bond really enamoured me in Royale because I fell in love with all the places he visited. Not so much QoS.

I actually haven't seen Quantum since the first day it was in theaters. I loved it, but every time I've had the money to blow, there have always been things that I wanted more. I rarely rent films unless it's just something I'm not sure about.

Totally waiting for Quantum of Solace to hit the USA channel, or maybe even SpikeTV.

what
in Bay movies it's always the same font in the bottom corner of the screen and it happens like 20 times per minute.
in Quantum, each location change is marked by a cool new title design and it doesn't happen anywhere near as frequent.

When does Star Trek II start filming?
Yes, Quantum of Solace was so amazing for the things it pulled off and very few give it credit for: Like the tempo and flow of the various locations' sequences, with so many places, such an elegant transition from location to location.. I don't know. I love that movie and I think a lot of people who watched it once and were taken aback by the lack of 'story' and quick pace were sufficiently confused to not see it for what it is. It's not like Bourne at all, the camerawork, the editing, completely different. And it has some really ICONIC Bond scenes, like the one at the Opera, which is not just about the action.

It's time to bring back Jaws.
Dunno any tall actors who could play him though.
