Who is excited about the upcoming James Bond film, Quantum of Solace? I saw Casino Royale in 2006 and thought it was one of the best Bond films in recent years (BTW, the DVD has been re-released as a three-disc special edition) and I can't wait for the new one The theme song by Alicia Keys and Jake White from The White Stripes is catchy (the music remainds of tracks from the Bond movies in the 1960s and 1970s) but the lyrics are hard to remember.
You can see the original video here:

The soundtrack is out now and the song itself is also included in the Super Edition of Alicia Keys' current album As I Am, also out now.

OMG I AM SOOOOOO EXCITED! YAY!!!! BUYING MY TICKETS TODAY!

got my tickets this arvo after school!
thursday at 8.40pm!

yayyies!

i like the new theme song, not as much as the one last year though!

Rob Lowing from The Sydney Sun-Herald gave it only 5/10.

OPENING day figures for Australia in the US suggest the film is a bomb, taking a tiny amount at the box-office in a week dominated by teen tingler Twilight.
According to figures posted by Variety, the movie made $3.4 million in its first day of opening there, with a measly per screen average of $1318, as compared to the $35,055 per screen earned by box office leader Twilight.
In the all-important lead up to the Thanksgiving holiday in the US, the film seems likely to be swamped by the teen vampire romance, despite glowing endorsement from the all-powerful Oprah Winfrey.
Australia is the most expensive movie ever made in this country, with a price tag of $197 million.
It made a healthy $1.3 million on its opening day in Australia on Wednesday, although not enough to beat Quantum of Solace's opening day of $2 million the week before.

I saw it and it is a good film but it's missing something. There's no super high technology in it that can only be in James Bond films. Although I think it is very much so still worth watching. The action scenes are great. I'd give it 7/10.

i was really disapointed!
wasnt nearly as good as casino royale!
they like didnt finish plot lines off
and yer ^like you said there was defs something missing

I was very disappointed too!! and bored!! didnt enjoy it at all

after watching it 2 times now, I still don't really get whats going on most of the time
unfortunately its pretty clear now that Quantum of Solace is no where near as good as the Casino Royale
and I much prefer CR's theme song.. as well as CR's bond girl..
another thing too is that it is such a short movie compared to all the other bond movies.. it was only like 1.5 hrs?
and apparently its the most expensive bond movie ever made?

hellllooo! ^ ^

hahahah i was wondering when i would see you in this topic!
but i completely agree with everything you just said!
although i did like this theme song, who would have though alicia keys and jack white!

Hey Maddie!

I finally saw the movie today and it was OK. There was some boring bits, like conversation between Dominic and Camille. Also I didn't quite understand how Strawberry Fields (Gemma Atherton) managed to give the message "Run" to Bond before she was drowned in petroleum (a la Goldfinger).
There was plenty of action though.

heeeeey

how are you?

Hi there!
I'm doing good.. how've you been? did you have a good xmas?
btw congrats on graduating high school! you got any plans for next year?



yeah there are lots of confusing things I still don't understand either
the starting racing scene was far less exciting compared to Casino Royale but the rooftop chase which followed was much better..

The rooftop chase was exciting as was the airplane chase in Bolivia (shot in Mexico actually).
