OK, I think everyone knows that I am a James Bond fan. If not...I am a James Bond fan.
I mean, what's not to like? Guns, gadgets, hot chicks. OK, Roger Moore was Teh Gay, but still, in a campy way, even his Bond movies were pretty good (except Moonraker).
Check out this list of the Bond movies from days gone by. How cool are these titles:
Dr. No (Ursula Andress, Jack Lord...come to Jamaica mon!)
From Russia with Love (Connery is a bad ass)
Goldfinger (Made in KY. Odd Job, Pussy Galore, classic)
Thunderball (best one of them all in my opinion)
You Only Live Twice (Connery as a Jap?? But where would Austin Powers be without it?)
On Her Majesty's Secret Service (George Lazenby? WTF? Telly Savalas is cool as Blofeld)
Diamonds are Forever (Best Moore film, Vegas Baby!)
Live and Let Die (introducing Jane Seymour, kick ass Harlem shit too!)
The Man with the Golden Gun (I can't insult this one, a tribute to Nipples! And a midget!)
The Spy Who Loved Me (Barbara Bach - mmmmmmm)
Moonraker (mulligan, although Jaws was in it and the femme was named Holly Goodhead)
For your Eyes Only (Moore really showing his age, hot Greek chick though)
Octopussy (how can you hate circus chicks and a title like this?)
A View to a Kill (not real good, but Christopher Walken helps)
The Living Daylights (Timothy Dalton debut, not horrible)
License to Kill (Bond gets married? WHAT? You're fired Dalton!)
Goldeneye (Brosnan steps in admirably, I like that Famke Janssen too!)
Tomorrow Never Dies (Brosnan still cool, best since Connery)
The World is not Enough (John Cleese appears as gadget guy, hate Judi Dench as M)
Die Another Day (Do we really need to be reminded about Halle Barry?)
Casino Royale (OK, new guy, I haven't seen it, supposed to be good)
Which finally brings me to the point of my post. Please take a second to again review the titles listed above. All pretty cool right? OK, A View to a Kill is retarded, but other than that?
I saw a commercial tonight for the newest 007 movie coming out. Still starring Daniel Craig, I don't know how he is, didn't watch Casino Royale.
Here's the title they give it:
QUANTUM OF SOLACE
What in the name of Zeus's butthole is that shit? That has got to be the stupidest thing I have EVER heard in my entire life! Are they trying to get chicks there thinking it's a love story? I just do not get it at all. This is really pissing me off.
Here's a quote about the title from an article I just Googled:
"Craig said Fleming defined a quantum of solace — it means, roughly, a measure of comfort — as "that spark of niceness in a relationship that if you don't have, you might as well give up.""
WHAT? That is NOT the James Bond I know. Can you see Connery saying faggoty shit like that??? Who's the villain? Oprah?
FUCK ME. I am so upset about this. This may be the end of James Bond as we know him. Next thing you know, he'll be going green.

totally agree on the faggy name for the new flick. Casino Royale was suprisingly good, and the new Bond is a bad motherfucker! Saw him in a movie called "Layercake" that he made before Bond (English gangster movie) not too shabby of a flick)
