Bond Rides A Bus In QUANTUM OF SOLACE!!

Interesting. by DHJeffries	Apr 11th, 2008 11:29:35 AM
But not really.

Nice to actually see an actor doing their own stunts....cant wait for this movie!
BOND IS FUCKING FLYING!!! by Mr. Nice Gaius	Apr 11th, 2008 11:32:24 AM

Looks like he's flying over a bus. by C.K. Lamoo	Apr 11th, 2008 11:34:01 AM
Which would be cool, too.
Daniel Craig's Face Is Pants! by MasterBateman	Apr 11th, 2008 11:36:22 AM
But his pecs aren't too shabby, and this movie is going to kick ass.
Well, that's better than riding the "Baloney Pony" by Puddleglum	Apr 11th, 2008 11:37:19 AM
It does look like he's fuckin flying though. Is Singer directing this installment?
Holy shit. James Bond has superpowers! by blindambition238	Apr 11th, 2008 11:38:36 AM

Hope it's not a dud by SpencerTrilby	Apr 11th, 2008 11:40:29 AM
I fucking loved Casino Royale, and I'd hate to see the franchise backpedal again into lameness territory. So far the cast and premise don't wow me at all. Fingers crossed. BTW, where are the jackasses who ran craignotbond.com gone? Fools...

Looking forward to this... by Darth Macchio	Apr 11th, 2008 11:41:52 AM
Craig is no doubt the best thing to happen to Bond since Connery. And the more gritty and realistic context is nice as well. All around good stuff coming from the Bond camp and I'm psyched. Been watching this character my whole life and though I'm not a crazy Bond fan I do always enjoy these movies....except for the more recent entries where every line of the script is a freaking sexual innuendo (did you all see the one with Halle Berry? I was actually offended by the stupidity of that script....fucking invisible car but also magically spotless totally non-dirty car? Bleech!!)
Obviously using anti-grav belt developed by Q by Bass Ackwards	Apr 11th, 2008 11:43:11 AM
to stop the bus from delivering its atmo-bomb to the city center, where its detonation would trigger greenhouse warming, and the only person prepared for that effect is the villain, poised to use said tragic events for his financial success and ultimate domination of the world!!! What? Bond movies aren't doing that kind of stuff anymore? Oh, guess its just wire work then.
MasterBateman by Ashok0	Apr 11th, 2008 11:43:56 AM
His "face is pants"? What the heck is that supposed to mean? In all seriousness tho, I thought Craig's face looked pretty tuxedo myself. And Felix looks so shirt.

title of this movie bugs me by george is angry	Apr 11th, 2008 11:56:59 AM
Should be "A Quantum of Solace" rather than just "Quantum of Solace". Makes much more sense.

Sign the Anti-Uwe Boll Petition by ZIGGEE36	Apr 11th, 2008 12:04:30 PM

Oh, he just borrowed Bruce Wayne's "base-jumping" gear... by SpyGuy	Apr 11th, 2008 12:06:36 PM
But hey, if we get stunts that come close to that amazing free running construction site sequence in CASINO ROYALE, I don't care if Bond is Superman, Batman and Ambush Bug all rolled into one. P.S. -- Bourne who?

Already more flying action than Superman Returns by Piltdown Joey	Apr 11th, 2008 12:13:44 PM

How does 1 million signatures by skimn	Apr 11th, 2008 12:15:59 PM
keep Boll from directing exactly?
The title of this movie doesn't bug me by Luscious.868	Apr 11th, 2008 12:17:31 PM
Because it comes from the phrase "not one quantum of solace" from one of the Bond books. I don't see an "a" in that phrase. Do you?
I Always Knew... by Rebeck2	Apr 11th, 2008 12:20:49 PM
That my lifelong hero, James Bond 007, could be changed into someone butt-fugly and classless with the face of bad boxer and all the suave style of a Dorito chip. Thank You, Daniel Craig. Thank you for changing Bond into every other "brooding" movie hero. God, I hope they make Bond even more GRITTY and REALISTIC. Cuz that's what I like in my Bond - stuff that could really happen and a man who makes mistakes and get beaten up a lot. Forget the fantastic derring-do, who needs that stuff? Or genuine fun. Fuck that. I want Bond to be a tormented "assassin" with a broken heart. Sigh.
Craig's quote from USA Today... by skimn	Apr 11th, 2008 12:22:35 PM
"The love of his life is killed, and he finds out she's not who she said she was. … He's out for revenge. But he's also out to find — and this is what the title is about — a 'quantum of solace.'
skimn by ZIGGEE36	Apr 11th, 2008 12:23:54 PM
from what i understand, Uwe has agreed to stop directing if one million people sign a petition against him
Why be realistic? It's BOND for God's sake! by Sithdan	Apr 11th, 2008 12:25:45 PM
I hope this is an actual James Bond 007 film and not another Jason Bourne knockoff.
Anyone know? by skimn	Apr 11th, 2008 12:27:42 PM
Since action scenes are highly orchestrated and coordinated by Stunt Coordinators (Vic Armstrong on this one?), 2nd unit directors, editing, special fx techs and such, can someone with little experience, Mr. Foster, fuck them up?

Quantum Leap by Pondscum	Apr 11th, 2008 12:40:58 PM
The actor doing the stunts? No green screen? The bus doesn't transform into a Dinobot? Bond is at best a 'bits' movie - I liked that bit, hated that bit, that bit was stupid, etc. - let's hope Quantum of Solice has enough good bits in it to make it worthwhile.
Man I hate bond films by Series7	Apr 11th, 2008 12:41:11 PM
Not really. Just when they are in production. Since the bond series prides itself with filming on location and all over the world, its not that hard to catch them in the act. So when a new bond movie comes out there always these dumbass pictures of (insert James Bond actor here) doing something. Either walking/talking/riding the back of a dump tuck just shit. I mean who gives a shit? Fucking its not like a new comic book/live cartoon movie where we are bitching about what the new hero/villin is going to look like. Are some story we already know and we get to see how they are filming a specific scene. Its bond, its a middle ages British man in a suit doing something that will doesn't mean anything until you see the movie. Whatever wake me when you got pics of G.I. Joe. For all I know that pic could've just been a still from the last movie.

"Nice to actually see an actor doing their own stunts" by Big Dumb Ape	Apr 11th, 2008 04:44:23 PM
Damn! I was going to respond by saying "Yeah, but notice the safety harness hidden under his shirt and the cable attached to it? That will be digitally removed in Post? Jackie Chan never needed that shit! He would just fucking hop or leap or jump from moving object to moving object even if it did mean cracking open his skull. Now THAT'S an actor ACTUALLY doing their own stunts!" But then BringingSexyBack mentioned it as well (good on you, BSB!), so now I have nothing to say other than I'm looking forward to this movie...CASINO ROYALE really surprised me and I liked Craig a lot more than I ever thought I would...however, when tossing around hyperbole let's remember that Jackie Chan is still THE MAN and is STILL what we should measure the phrase "an actor doing his own stunts" against. And frankly, no one has yet to even come close...

Except for that safety harness, which kind of kills the comparison. and the fun.
Yeah, GibsonUSA by Rebeck2	Apr 11th, 2008 06:28:52 PM
Let's just have Bond lose all the time, that'll be lots of fun! I'm sure the movies would be big hits too. I don't WANT Bond to be mortal, you idiot! I want Bond to be the coolest guy in the world, the way he was the first forty years. If you don't like those movies, move on to another franchise motherfucker. If you don't understand the value of suave sophistication and calm under fire, I can't help you. I love all these superhero-loving fanboys who complain that Bond needs to be more "real"! It's hysterical. And then they argue about what color tights or cape so-and-so should be wearing. They evidently have two speeds only: god-like irradiated superhero or mortal man who gets the shit beaten out of him. Also the fact that Bond gets lots of ass (which the superheroes NEVER do) I guess strikes lonely geeks as "just not realistic". LOL. And women?? Who needs 'em?
These films will get bad by the_scream	Apr 11th, 2008 07:35:15 PM
I loved Casino Royale but it won't be before long that the camp humour and over-the-top set pieces dominate again. It's like in Casino Royale, they couldn't help themselves and put that big set piece with the building falling to pieces. Why can't they just pull back and just have Bond get in a cool shoot-out or fist-fight? Why does there have to be explosions and fireworks?
Thank You, Gotham by Rebeck2	Apr 11th, 2008 08:07:25 PM
What's wrong with big set pieces? Sometimes I have to wonder why people can't just let the Bond series be what it is and what I've loved all these years. It was always a wish-fulfilment fantasy and that's the way I like it. (Uh-huh uh-huh)

The emphasis on action photos worries me by Osmosis Jones	Apr 11th, 2008 10:28:14 PM
It's like the Broccolis are listening to the handful of teenagers who compalined there weren't enough action scenes in Casino Royale, and now they're overcompensating with QOS. While I wouldn't mind a LITTLE more action than what was in Royale, I don't want this to turn into Tomorrow Never Dies.
deliciouscowbell, sometimes it just has to be said by br1947	Apr 11th, 2008 10:51:37 PM

Some extra info.. by DiamondJoe	Apr 12th, 2008 02:27:36 AM
..I've found from the press conference in Chile that's got me pretty amped for this film. Daniel Craig says: "We're not making a kitchen sink drama here. We are making a Bond movie. What Marc wanted and the producers and what I wanted is to bring back a visual flair to the movie, so that every frame in every shot that we see is beautiful. And there may be things exploding, but they're good to look at." Also the director said: "I want to go back to the 60s and 70s thriller look."

No production can afford to put the leading man at risk. You may brag all you want Jackie Chan did it for real, it was in another time another place. Today, Chan is doubled for all his stunts. At least, Craig's commits more than Moore !

It was a pretty enjoyable film (much better than TWINE or DAD, but that's not saying much), but didn't you find the "shooting gallery" finale to be a big letdown? As long as Craig doesn't mow down dozens of bad guys with a machine gun, I should be happy...

gosh by mrbong	Apr 13th, 2008 02:42:35 AM
so far we have seen Daniel Craig hanging around in a harbour, we've seen him running up some sort of structure waving a firearm, and now we get to see him on a bus. this is going to be a terribly exciting film. BTW, does anyone know Craig's name in this film, or is he not going to have one like in Layer Cake?
