Quantum of Solace - teaser trailer. Epic. That is all.

  • huh. it's sort of like the born series, but with different accents.
  • or bourne for that matter.
  • It's such a tease it won't even load up for me.
  • I'm impressed at the quality of the video. We've come a long way from 10fps postage-stamp sized, blocky-as-hell clips. I know at least two female acquaintances that will faint at the sight of this. I don't understand it: apart from rugged good looks, magnetic personality, perfect body and a purring accent, what does Mr. Craig has that I don't... damn.
  • It looksh impreshshive, but I'll have to inveshtigate it shome more on my home computer, which hash shound, unlike this blashted contrapshtion.
  • Shomeone'sh poshted another trailer heah -- perhapsh that one worksh better on shome peoplesh' computersh.
  • Oohhhh Jaaaaames! *giggles*
  • I saw Ann Curry interview him on the set something like a month ago. She looked ready to fuck him on live TV. Not that I blame her.
  • mct: link, pls.
  • Right around 3:15 is particularly subtle. Then she brings up nudity a minute later. But mostly it's the pervasive "momma wants some lovin'" look.
  • *files Anne-Curry-pleading look away for future use*
  • The "This Needs to Happen Now" look at 5:03 is also noteworthy.
  • Why do we care about this mindless TV hack that 90% of the planet has never heard of? More about the trailer & movie, less about the hacks on the telly, please. :)
  • We never loved Anne Curry for her mind, Hank...
  • She aint all that.
  • Look, see, you've derailed it. It's too late now, we can never get back to talking about how this may be one of the more awesome teaser trailers to come out this year or how cool Bond looks coming over that rocky rise with the silenced UMP, or discussion about the title.. blah
  • You know, I think this is one of the more awesome teaser trailers to come out this year. Better than Dark Knight? I say no, but a close second.
  • The funny thing about a Quantum of Solace is that it's impossible to measure its Oscar-nomination momentum AND its box office position at the same time.
  • Did you notice, though, how cool Bond looks coming over that rocky rise with the silenced UMP? I can't come that far, not holding a silenced UMP, nossir.
  • ok, that was pretty cool.
  • I thought we'd already talked about the title and the pro0n permutations thereof... But yes, Hank, a good teaser. It'd be even better if it had Anne Curry in it, with those legs that go all the way down to the ground.
  • But did you notice, when Bond is coming over that rocky rise with the silenced UMP, how slimly his jacket was tailored at the waist? Makes him look like a total girly-man.
  • I think my uterus just grew back, with Daniel Craig's baby in it.
  • Nope, sorry, Koko, that was just me. Carry on.
  • I dunno. I'm kinda meh.
  • I hope it's even better than "Hancock," which was really good, and which I just saw and you didn't. Suckers.
  • "Hancock" also had the Bond trailer, and the "Dark Knight" trailer, which is better than the Bond trailer, and will be a better movie. Discuss.
  • OK, Koko wins thread. I cackled like a loon.
  • But I vote Quiddy for teh highbrow win. I went "Uhh? Ahhh!" (like a loon).
  • Look, now you've derailed how Koko won the thread by introducing a "highbrow" win that 90% of the world has never awarded to anyone in a thread. You've completely spoiled Koko's win and her uterus coming over the rocky rise.
  • I had some testes; my wife had a uterus, Until circumstances conspired to neuter us.
  • *sends Oddjob to take care of uterus*
  • And now for a rousing chorus of "I Left my Womb in West Virginia."
  • For the last time, Dame Dench, will you please stop yelling at my tummy. I have an appointment with my OB/GYNs, Dr.s Wint and Kidd.
  • Dr. Wint: Now which of us is Doctor Kidd? Dr. Kidd: I Kidd, you not! Which doctor? No just a guy in a white coat.
