I waited for the trailer to come out before deciding what to think about about this new film. To me it looks like a dozen over action films like ahem..... Jason Bourne!!! The shot were Craig comes over with bloody huge gun, i thought to myself this is a far removed from Ian Fleming and the previous films as you can get. They should pay the author of the Bourne novels royalties for ripping his character off!
I know,right! :lol:
He even wore that blue top Bourne wears!!! i cant wait for them to get Brian Cox as M. They should rename M16 Treadstone.

Any how i think Daniel can gurn and pout (his only expressions) through the next film :lol:

Many people used to deny the influence of Bourne on Eon, and even ot annoyed at such a suggestion. Now they admit Casino Royale was influnced by Bourne, and glorify the fact. It's right that they should steal some moviemaking techniques from Bourne. But, to try and change the Bond character into a mre Bourne like character is taking it a bit too far.

Look at this still from Casino Royale - it's taking the Bourne rip off too far!

Maybe Bond will be a bit more Bondian in Quantum.
