Actually, Quantum of Solace featured the Vesper again! Not by name, but the bartender on the Virgin Atlantic flight spelled out all of the ingredients.

Ahh!! Forgot to comment on the new (2006) version. Simply stated: Kicked Ass! I really like that they are building the new Bond from the ground up. Slowly polishing him over the next couple of films...

I'm glad you enjoyed the Vesper Drink, but I believe that Quantum of SOlace will start bringing back the Vodka Martini, shaken, not stirred.

Nice to see Bond back to being more physical, and more raw... brutal... very cool.

I am probably all confused now… but I believe that the DVD for the 1967 Casino Royale version actually has as a bonus feature a copy of the original Black and White TV movie which is actually similar to the 2006 version in that is kinda follows the original novel. BIg difference is that James Bond is actually and American… yup… good ole Jimmy Bond! What can I say…. Cute.
