better bond

Anyone who says Bond is dirtier and smellier should go to history, I like this Bonnized Bond. Sharper cuts and fights, more capable and wild Bond girls, more Michael Bay explosions and more Soderbergh-style vehicle chases. Why does Bond have to kill and have sex cleanly? MI7's imaginary enemy has long since been turned from a Soviet republic to a terrorist, and Bond must have more muscles, a grim expression, and as few vases as possible.

The exploration of Bond's inner world is the biggest attraction of Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace. Perhaps the script has an advantage. I prefer to see Bond holding an old friend to give him the last ride, rather than seeing a face full of faces. The smiling Bond. I would rather see Bond running and jumping in the streets of the old city covered in dust, than seeing a man who kills with a few guns and fists and spends the rest of his time talking about love and shuttling between wine glass hotels Bond.

I would love to see a better Bond.

Quantum of Solace quotes

  • James Bond: How much oil did the Americans promise you?

    M: This isn't about oil.

    James Bond: Well, that's good because there isn't any.

    M: It's about trust. You said you weren't motivated by revenge.

    James Bond: I'm motivated by my duty.

    M: No. I think you're so blinded by inconsolable rage that you don't care who you hurt. When you can't tell your friends from your enemies, it's time to go.

  • M: It'd be a pretty cold bastard who didn't want revenge for the death of someone he loved.
