Quantum of Solace (2008)

The more you know:

  • Bond once again here drinks a Vesper, though it is called out by ingredients, and not by name. I guess he's still pissed at her. 
  • If Quantum really is the name of thebig secret conspiracy organization, should they really be wearing those "Q" pins so fraglantly out in public?
  • What the hell are those fuel cells made out of, nitroglycerine and bubble gum?
  • Check out the tasty typeface treatments introducing each of the exotic locations Bond visits.
  • The title sequence wasexecuted by the design house MK12 (I think they did all the infographics in the movie as well, but having trouble finding confirmation): http://www.mk12.com/
  • Oil is the new gold. That's all I'm going to say.
  • "We are teachers on sabbatical."
  • Also, watch for Agent Fields' first name in the credits.

Question for my viewers: does the opera Tosca have anything to do with the plot of Quantum of Solace? Any parallels, etc.?

All I can say is that I love the direction of the new films… My other observations have already been pointed out. Excellent run of Butter Flavored minutes. I feel like I have vicariously relived the whole collection myself, and for that, I thank you.
