"Quantum Of Solace" continues the high octane adventures of James Bond in "Casino Royale". The title is taken from one of a collection of short stories published by 007 creator Ian Fleming in 1960.

Betrayed by Vesper, the woman he loved, 007 fights the urge to make his latest mission personal. Pursuing his determination to uncover the truth, Bond and M interrogate Mr White, who reveals the organisation which blackmailed Vesper is far more complex and dangerous than anyone had imagined.


Release Date: Nov 7, 2008

i.totally.agree

sosgemini said:

It's the original title of one of Ian Flemming's short Bond-stories....

superspaceboy said:

'Attack Of The Clones' was worse....

abierman said:

so...

sosgemini said:

Just sayin'.....they're making a film of the original book.....'Octopussy' was a worse title, IMHO....

abierman said:

For a James Bond Flick, I thought Octopussy was a fantastic title...though the movie was pretty terrible!

your mistake ... that's my new celeb crush

I thought "Octopussy" was one of the better Moore Bond films. Moore was starting to look really long in the tooth by that point, but it's a really exciting film. And Maud Adams? Second only to Ursula Andress as the quintessential Bond goddess.

I can't wait for this. I loved Casino Royale. Hopefully this will be better

Some people have no sense of history & would probably prefer if it had been named James Bond 24 or whatever.

abierman said:

Not really, considering the type of movie it was & its content.

I must admit I preferred the working title of "Bond22", but the fact that it is an original title and after a few days the title is growing on me.

I preferred it when it was originally going to based around a plot involving a global ice cream robbery:

Quantity Of Soleros

I wonder if Winehouse is still up for the song?

I loved the Octopussy film.

i love when folks throw their own baggage onto others.

look, if this has special meaning for you...super but as far as im concerned the title doesnt work.

but hey, if you feel forced to dismissed others opinion just to justify your own fanboy perception then more power to you.

sosgemini said:

I think the new Bonds' gimmick is to have the vibe of the original novels. As far as I'm concerned the last fun Bond was Moonraker, and now we had the fun Casino Royale.

And that would be the only reason I do not like the movie title; if you have a filmm called A View To A Kill you can easily turn it into a song title, but Quantum Of Solace.

Oh, and PS: it's still hers if she can stay off drugs for three months, I read. Dunno if it's true.
