Ok, so we should probably remind ourselves that we have entered silly season with potential, proposed and fake titles regarding the 23rd James Bond movie and it’ll be like this until Daniel Craig or EON Productions, MGM or Sony Pictures announce with a press release just what the hell the film will actually be called.

Whatever the name, it needs to be better then Quantum of Solace. Casino Royale was great, Quantum was not good.
Quantum was actually better the second time I watched it, oddly enough.
I liked Quantum a very tight script with action from beginning to end,Casino was better but it also was about 40 mins longer...
The villain was a Al Gore greennie says he is trying to save the environment while pocketing large amounts of money..
Give it a second watch.
I own both on Blu-Ray. I’ve watched Quantum probably 4 times, whereas I’ve watched Casino around 20 times.(I don’t have cable tv) I didn’t hate Quantum, but it was a let down to me after Casino.
P.S. GSP.FAN - Is your name for “Rush” GSP of UFC?
Whatever they call it i could care less,it does have a great cast..
@ Craig movies i am looking forward to Bond and the first installment of the Girl with the dragon Tattoo,trailer looks awesome,Trent Reznor doing the music score should make it a blockbuster..

I watched Q a bunch of times i like it for a quick action movie with no downtime..Casino is better but you have to sit down and concentrate on it a lot of dialogue to absorb..
I should probably have chosen my screen name better am a huge fan of George S Patton even named my sons middle name Patton..
Another great flick I have on Blu-Ray. I guess I could have just looked at your home page. I’m a little slow today. Maybe I’ll throw Quantum on while I do some work...give it another chance. Take care.
I still use regular DVD does a Blu-Ray make that much of a difference??
I liked Quantum as a straight continuation of Casino Royale, but it’s not much of a stand-alone movie. The aerial dogfight was pretty lame, and Bond traveling around Europe and out to South America after all of his money and passports have been frozen my M left me scratching my head. The rest of the action scenes were fantastic, though. The shootout at the opera was fantastic, especially when the sound almost goes away completely while a violent scene plays out in the restaurant. Great atmosphere there.
It looks way better.
Both Casino and Quantum are fantastic films and totally explain Bond’s foundation, who he is and how he operates. Both films are starter films and can totally lead to numerous films now that Bond’s character is established.
This coming from someone who has seen Casino no less than thirty times and Quantum more than half that. Both films compliment each other in the story line and from here on out, each film can stand on its own.
“Skyfall” ? I thought that was the name of La Raza Rick’s candidacy... Whoops, no, that would be “Freefall.” ;-D
