I found other articles on it and it seems to be true and as long as they keep up the great work and maintain a darker tone, they can call it "Bond Loves Cheese" and I'll be there opening day.
For Your Eyes Only by byronimation	Jan 24th, 2008 08:55:38 AM
The first rumors were for another story in "For Your Eyes Only," "Risico." I wonder why they chose this title from a story that barely features Bond.

Quantum of Solace? Bleck, sounds all sci-fi and cheesy. As much as I like Tomorrow Never Dies, we don't need another one.
Not that great by photoboy	Jan 24th, 2008 08:58:41 AM
Still as long as the film is good I don't care about the name. I thought Kurylenko's claims that she's going to be a very different Bond girl were laughable though. How many times have we heard that now? That old cliche might have been true during the Roger Moore years but we've had more "tough" Bond girls than not in recent films. I don't necessarily mind a Bond girl being able to take care of herself, but these actresses should stop convincing themselves they're breaking new ground. They're just there to look hot.

It's sort of an homage to Dr. No. And Professor Ikamono is just as degenerate and evil as Dr. No was, so he'd make a great Bond villain. What an incredible cyber-stalking idiot.

what happened to making the books into proper movies? by Mysterious Yobo	Jan 24th, 2008 09:09:52 AM

Spy Who Loved Me by Samuel Fulmer	Jan 24th, 2008 09:13:32 AM
I can see using a title of a Fleming book or story if it's a good title, or if the movie is actually an adaptation of said title. If it's not though, why go with such a lame title. The Spy Who Loved Me film had nothing to do with the book, but it was a good title. Quantum of Solace ain't a good title, it sounds like some crap BBC movie playing Sunday night on PBS starring Helen Mirren and Timothy Dalton.

I mean, who the hell is going to even to equate that title with a Bond flick? Only the producers. Everyone else is going to scratch their heads and say, "WTF?" Unless they make it a quantum physics time travel movie, set it in space have Bond played by every actor that portrayed him in the movies. Now THAT would be an interesting Bond film. But I think I would still prefer watching Professor Ikamono get torn to shreds by his former henchman Brokeback/BSB in a gay lovers' quarrel. Bond would just sit back and look repulsed while Prof. Ikamono and BSB fought to the death over a bouquet of flowers meant for Heath Ledger's memorial service. Then Bond would read Prof Ikamono's gay ode to Ledger as a eulogy. And then he'd ship BSB's body off to Israel for burial. Heh heh.
"then what was the point of the reboot?" by Shepard Wong	Jan 24th, 2008 09:16:23 AM
Money of course. And at least from my perspective it worked. I hadn't watched a Bond movie since Goldeneye. I didn't even care enough to rent the others since then. I liked Craig in Layer Cake so much that the casting had me looking forward to CR. I saw Casino Royale in the theater and bought it on Bluray. I'm Daniel Craig's bitch I guess.

Important clues in the meaning.... by Dude_gimme_tabs	Jan 24th, 2008 09:23:19 AM
This was a short story in the "For Your Eyes Only" collection. There are some very important pointers regarding Bond, Vesper and how the events of Casino Royale will come into play and affect Bond in this movie. It also is clear what the title means when you take it in context of the story. Quantum of Solace is not a spy story or a typical Bond tale. Bond appears only in the background and is attending a boring dinner party at the Government House in Nassau with a group of socialites he can't detests (as per Vesper's comments in CR). Bond makes an rude remark after dinner when the other guests have left in order to stimulate conversation as he is bored shitless. The retort from the elderly Governor of The Bahamas who tells 007 a story about a relationship between former civil servant Philip Masters stationed in Bermuda and air hostess Rhoda Llewellyn. After meeting aboard a flight to London the two eventually married but after a time Rhoda became unhappy with her life as a housewife. She then began a long open affair with the eldest son of a rich Bermudan family. As a result Masters' work deteriorated and he suffered a nervous breakdown. After recovering he was given a break from Bermuda by the governor and sent on an assignment to Washington to negotiate fishing rights with the US. At the same time the governor's wife had a talk with Rhoda just as her affair ended. Masters returned a few months later and decided to end his marriage, although he and Rhoda continued to appear as a happy couple in public. Masters returned alone to the UK, leaving a penniless Rhoda stranded in Bermuda, an act of which he'd been incapable of merely months earlier. But Masters never recovered emotionally, his vital spark never relit. The governor goes on to tell Bond how after a time Rhoda married a rich Canadian and seems to be happy, telling Bond that his dull dinner companions whom he found so boring were Rhoda and her new husband. The story makes the point that 007 adventures are nothing compared to real life drama. Bond reflects that the lives of the people he passes somewhat superficial judgments upon can in fact hide poignant episodes. Quantum of Solace can be translated to "Degree of comfort,". Masters and Llewellyn could have gotten past their problems had they not lost their "Quantum of Solace" or "Degree of Comfort." They didn't have to do the horrible things they did to each other, they chose to because they lost their degree of comfort. In CR Vesper convinced Bond that just because he'd done terrible things he didn't have to keep doing them. Her subsequent betrayal could easily have removed his "Quantum of Solace," accounting for his cold indifference to both killing and members of the opposite sex.

So its not really about Bond then? by Mysterious Yobo	Jan 24th, 2008 09:25:14 AM
its about some civil service dude and his bitch whore slut slag wife who cheated on him. right. maybe they should rethink the whole think. hope they havnt spent too much making this yet. they should really make 'for your eyes only' as an anthology film. that would be interesting. then bond would get a rest when quantum came up.

After seeing the cast of Bond women who look like teenagers that they've lined up for this one it'll feel more like R. Kelly's home videos. And Quatum Solace is a dreadful title. Sounds like a Yanni ablum. I actually thought when they originally cast Carice Van Houten and got that drama film director guy that this one would be a step up from Casino Royale. But now I'm suspecting it will end up a total mess that it neither be a proper 007 feature or a gritty newschool Bourne deal but an annoying wierd hodgepodge of the two.

There is absolutely no way that's the title. In 1988 they had one called License Revoked. They changed it to License to Kill because the testing showed that not enough people knew what "revoked" meant. So I don't think "quantum of solace" is going to make it.

The same god-damned titty life-support systems. The same god-damned sexual innuendo. The same god-damned gadgets. The same, the same, the same, the same.

It's kind of like Rambo IV being titled Rambo. We already had Rambo: First Blood Part II. Which in retrospect is probably the absolute dumbest way they could have titled it. Except, perhaps for calling it Rambo: Quantum of Solace. Holy shit.

The article mentioned that M is having a larger role in all of this. My guess is that M's personal past has a few skeletons and she needs someone to do her some quite personal favors. She dislikes Bond, but is forced to rely on him.

I have to laugh at the breathtaking nearly pornographic homoerotic imagery of your attacks on me, all that shit about me staying up til 3:00 am clutching my sweating chest... Really, somebody says "I was in an Alan Parker film and I was born in May 1972" and then accuses anybody who looks it up to be a stalker? Don't make such claims unless you're willing to back 'em up. And I have to be the only "stalker" in history who knows absolutely nothing about their "victim", while at the same time since I've been completely open on these threads you could know nearly everything about me!

I'm guessing the BBC is wrong. by epitone	Jan 24th, 2008 10:42:04 AM
Also: the Ian Fleming short story "Quantum of Solace" is all about Bond talking about wanting to marry a flight attendant, then having a conversation at a cocktail party with a dude who got stuck in a bad marriage. And the "quantum of solace" is something to do with a man's comfort in a relationship. Or something like that; it's been years since I read it. Bottom line, it's boring as hell. And even the title leaves a bad taste.

It took me like three minutes to go through Alan Parker's IMDB credits to find Jeremy Schoenberg, then two more minutes to find Schoenberg's web page. Five freaking minutes last June, then I promptly forgot all about it til last night. I've already apologised for sharing this with BSB on the TB's, but that's not good enough to satisfy your stalker fantasy...

Worked for Nintendo; Revolution sounded cool, sure, but Wii gets the World-Jackass-machine going and here we are 14 months later with people still waiting in lines for it. Also, I'd read it to mean that it's the smallest amount of comfort/peace Bond could be afforded. Especially since the movie's starting an hour after the last, right? The end of the last movie had Bond in full-on vigilante mode, definitely not at peace. No rest for the weary and all...

Casino royale was the last chance the flatulent Broccolis had to make Bond relevant ot the 21st century . And they failed. I wont be going to see "Quantum of Solace". Bond is a timepiece better suited to the 1950's and 60's. The mark set by Spy movies is Bourne and Bond doesnt address the issues that Bourne presented. AKA: Spy organsiations fuck up the world. So to me Bond is a sick joke that should be shunned. Not promoted.

(Another Forty minutes) Everyone else: I can't believe we were fooled again by Bourne's magician like mis-direction. He lied to us on a mobile phone again! Thank goodness he's dead...again.

several years ago, Licence Revoked had to be changed to Licence To Kill on the basis that thick Americans would not understand the word "revoked", in between spelling Licence as "license". now it would seem that the makers of Bond believe that thick Americans are not quite so thick as they once were and will be able to understand the title. nice one, America, on no longer being quite so thick.

It's just a difference in the language. England and America do have the occasional language barrier too. I'm no jingoist but I do get tired of Americans constantly being accused of being stupid. Spend some time in some other countries and you'll find that most people are stupid, no matter where they happen to live. If America is so dumb, you all take a stab at inventing everything for a change.

Disappointing Title by Acquanetta	Jan 24th, 2008 12:15:47 PM
I once thought this would make a good title, back when Dalton was still set to return for a third movie. But looking at it today, it's pretty bad. Michael Wilson claims it was chosen "just a few days ago", which doesn't inspire much confidence either. You can almost see them sitting around and asking, "Is there any way we can spin that title to fit our movie?"

The last thing we want is an odd, thoughtful, obscure name that suggests a slightly adult Bond which stays as close to Fleming as Casino Royale did. Fuck that with a side of cock pie. What we need is "Killing Again With Carchases". You know, something for the chillins' - something to get us back to the good old days of Octopussy..... Quantum of Solace is dark & slightly baroque - a bit like James Bond. I'm off to build a time-machine. That way everyone who judges a Bond film by its special commemorative Burger King tie-in cup can go back to 1997 and enjoy Tomorrow Never Dies on continuous reloop. And then gouge their eyes out with the Jonathan Pryce-shaped straw. Anyone who does not like this title is absolutely not wlecome in my secret underground lair.

"America has one of the best education systems in the world." Not anymore. After Reagan dismantled California's incredible education system, we dropped global ranks fast along with all the other programs. Yes, we have great minds here. Yet American students rank around 40 in terms of science and humanities globally. Far more folks here are sucking off the tube rather than reading. And 30 percent approval or not, a genuine moron became president twice and has continued to lie and bully our nation into submission. People here care more about Britney Spears than Iraq. I'm an American, I know what's been going on in our country for a long time. Quantum of Solace means something if you know a little English and are willing to think for longer than one second. Whoda thunk Bond was educational?

We want a title like 'Die Again Tomorrow'..... I just think the producers have a) earned enough trust from the last one that people should give them some benefit b) are clearly going away from the kid-appeal that made the franchise so lame. So I get pretentious / sanctimonious about it. I also happen to be right though so don't hate a brother.

No problem amigo ! I hope it helps cast some light on the directions they might take and how we can expect, as Craig says, to see Bond being shaped in a continuation from Casino Royale. Hopefully it will cut through some of the general ignorance of people who cannot compute a title without the words "Kill" or "Die" in it. The title song will hopefully follow "You Know My Name" and not have to reference the title. I have high hopes for this. Craig in the lead and being active in sorting out the plots/script. Marc Foster who made Kite Runner, and some top class talent in acting department (e.g. The Diving Bell and the Butterfly, what a movie !). Oh, and re : the anti-Americanism. I ain't American, and I reckon the entire world has seemed to take a slide backwards towards general ignorance recently. Probably due to the internet giving fucktards a worldwide voice. I have travelled extensively all over the world and more than anything in the US (I used to be married to a Yank) and the Amercan's are some of the coolest, most friendly and greatest people on the planet. If we judge them all by the monkey in the White House or the fucktards online then we do ourselves as big a diservice as them.

Obviously, you haven't been many other places in the world. North America (Canada and US), Europe (Mainly EU), some parts of Asia, and Australia have developed and established educational systems. Leaving the better part of the rest of the world pretty much without structured as we know it education. Population in Africa and China alone represents a macrocosmic difference. Besides, if you want to rip on American education, when I was in college there were more foreign students than Americans enrolled. I'm sure we can find others than can vouche for that.

buggerlugs is right - I always say "Bond" when asking for tickets..... like in May I'll be saying "Indiana Jones" when I go to see that Sheer the Beef movie. I like the title because its Fleming and probably has relevance to what's happening to Bond, but then I'm not trying to market a multi-million-dollar movie to a global audience...
QOS by The Bandit	Jan 24th, 2008 01:34:57 PM
I actually think it’s a fine title. It's very Bond, very Fleming. True Bond is not just about explosions and mindless vapid half naked women. And given the choices from CR and how well it worked I think Bonds moving in the right direction. This era of new Bond doesn’t seem to be (so far at least) pandering to the crowd or the lowest common denominator. So the retarded fuck who mops up the floors in the office who only wants to see tits and stuff go boom doesn’t get it. OH well, it’s not for him. Let him go watch Die Hard 4 or whatever the latest wrestler turned 'actor' flick is. God forbid someone learn new words. If they don’t know what it means pick up a goddamn dictionary. Now granted it might be a bit of a mouthful for some, but it’s not as bad as previous titles. Octopussy? Come on. And the title doesn’t have to be in the theme song.

The title is fine by me by Abominable Snowcone	Jan 24th, 2008 02:33:57 PM

AWESOME TITLE by Gungan Slayer	Jan 24th, 2008 02:44:40 PM
I'm very happy with this title, and it's great to see one of the last few Fleming titles used for a film. If you don't understand the phrase, you're either 1)incredibly stupid, 2)incredibly lazy to spend three seconds to look up the words on the Internet or 3)a combination of the two.
Suggested 007 titles by cromwell1666	Jan 24th, 2008 02:44:56 PM
"I thought I told you never to say never again" "OctogenerianPussy" "From The Ukraine with a sort of cold detatchment" "You only Live Twice(unless you're a Kitty Cat)" "Tits-A-Plenty"
Perfect Title for an "Ian Fleming's James Bond" film by Jim Caerleon	Jan 24th, 2008 02:47:02 PM
The title is directly from Fleming, and is a clue that this Bond film will match the smarter, more dramatic and literate 007 of "Casino Royale", which was the best Bond film since OHMSS.
AWFUL TITLE by Barron34	Jan 24th, 2008 02:53:06 PM
It sounds nothing like a classic Bond title, regardless of the meaning, and regardless of the fact that Ian Fleming wrote it. Just because a title is authentic to the original author doesn't make it great. QUANTUM OF SOLACE sounds like the title of an obscure science fiction novella, not a Bond movie. And for those who are jazzed on the idea of a more "literary" Bond: Bond is action-adventure, plain and simple. We would like it to be "smart" action-adventure, but Bond is not Hemingway or F.Scott Fitzgerald. In sum, I don't like the title.

If your wondering why I'm on anchorite's ... by PROF IKAMONO	Jan 24th, 2008 02:53:21 PM
...Nixonian enemies list now with BSB. Its because I thought that when he said he was in an Alan Parker movie he meant we should see who he was. He says now that he never gave any such clue, well, as I DON"T cache his old posts it took me a while to dig this up... http://www.aintitcool.com/talk back_display/32616#comment_150 5154 ... and because I don't watch Veronica Mars I missed this one entirely http://www.aintitcool.com/talk back_display/32948#comment_155 9840 where he's claiming to be Dana Carvey? Or was that a joke? Nope scroll down further he insists he was in it. Oh check out Alonzo Mosley's posts too! What's he doing? Checking out anchorite's story at IMDB just like I did! He found a different name but he wasn't given a birthday... Funny, anchorite didn't call Alonzo a creepy cyber-stalker... hmmm I guess you have to make nice with BSB to earn that! Because I'm not a stalker I can't find the post where he said his 34th birthday was in the first week or so of May 2007, but this is enough to show that this CREEP, this FREAK, is a liar. And I wouldn't give a shit, but he's lying about ME.

skywalkerfamily, stop proving their point about americans by I Dunno	Jan 24th, 2008 03:20:05 PM
Quantum...an amount. In physics, a very small amount. solace...safety, comfort So Bond has little comfort for whatever reason. Probably meaning that he'll kill everyone involved with Vesper's death but it gives him little comfort. No, it's not a good title for a movie but that's what it means.

What do you have to say about this? http://tinyurl.com/2b7g96 And really, what about this? http://tinyurl.com/yvajtf And by the way, just because I didn't like the new title doesn't mean I want the Jinx franchise. We just have different aesthetic tastes for titles. I'm a Connery purist, but enjoyed Moore's goofy as hell interpretation until his later films, liked Dalton's first one, hated every Brosnan Bond except Goldeneye and liked Casino Royale a lot.

Bond looks down, smiles and mutters under his breath, "Poor bastard got the wrong quantum state." Opening credits ensue.
Quantum of Solace... by BrooseTheScharuk	Jan 24th, 2008 03:55:56 PM
...isn't an inherently bad title; just wrong for these times. With the average vocabulary getting smaller by the hour (or just replaced with pop-culture-fed slang) I think this title will sound like gibberish to most people. Or they will associate it with the TV show which represents their only knowledge of the use of the word "quantum". In light of the movie's apparent revenge storyline -- with Bond uncovering the tragic truth about Vesper from the first film and hunting down those responsible -- the title makes perfect sense. It's just not a title that evokes any association with things Bond for the average moviegoer in 2008.

I Can Relate To Bourne Much More As A Character by LaserPants	Jan 24th, 2008 04:09:03 PM
Not in terms of being an asskicker, which clearly I am not, but I can relate to his cold, stoic reaction to shit and just trying to survive. The whole ladies man schtick, though cool for Bond, isn't something I aspire for or think I could pull off. But cold, relentless dedication to get the job done and escape? I'm all about that. Or, at the very least, I'd like to think so. Perhaps the real truth is that I'm boring. BORING! Zzzzz. God, I even put myself to sleep!
