Quantum of Solace

[eleneariel]

I am so proud of my man Daniel Craig. Okay, I admit, I had my doubts too - but they vanished, as did those of apparently almost everyone else, after Casino Royale came out. Now Quantum of Solace has been released in the UK and absolutely shattered all box office records.

I would so be in line the night it comes out here except that I'll be at equuschick 's wedding which, well, is kind of important. But I know what I'll be doing as soon as I get back.

The opening of the film begins a mere hour after Casino Royale ended, which makes me unspeakably happy. ANGSTY BOND.

Oh and, it looks like it might be one of the most expensive films on record, at a cost of around $2.5 million per minute. o_O

Indeed, Casino Royale saved James Bond the way Batman Begins saved the Batman franchise.

But opening night box office records are not as good an indication fo awesomeness as total revenues for the film a few weeks later. The fact that everyone went to see the film cause they were excited about it doesn't prove it's actually good, it only proves people thought it was going to be. I always save a healthy bit of skepticism.

The early reviews sound good, though, which makes me optimistic!
