Bond Title Revealed!


And it’s Quantum Of Solace. Only kidding! Oh, no they’re not. That is the official title of Bond 22. Haven’t got a clue what it means apart from the fact that it’s the title of an Ian Fleming short story in the For Your Eyes Only collection, in which Bond – attending a dull dinner at Government House in Nassau, the Bahamas – mostly listens as the elderly Governor of the Bahamas regales him with the story of a tragic relationship between a former civil servant and an air hostess. Not a brilliant starting point for an action-packed blockbuster, you’d think, but it doesn’t seem story and film have much to do with each other, with the producers also unveiling that Solace will pick up right where Casino Royale finished… More at BBC News and Empire
What are your thoughts on Bond's new title? Love it? Loathe it? Feel like you're going to need a masters degree to gain entry to the film?
