It's a great title - it was thought up by Ian Fleming, if you did not know.

The bits of the film thought up by Barbara Broccoli - ie the Daniel Craig bit - are the bits many people will be moaning about on this forum. :wink:

I actually think all Fleming's other Bond titles are very good, but Quantum of Solace??? :roll:

That said, I read a good interview with DC and he explained the reasoning behind the decision and I accept it does have good meaning behind it.

It's creeping back down now. 38.7 now agree it is rubbish.
Although only 34,000 people have responded, not an indicator of much beyond the Fan boys can vote like they American's do in Chicago. Early and Often ;)
