Or: What The Hell Does That Name Mean Anyways?
The 22nd James Bond movie is here!
Daniel Craig makes his second entry into his new reboot of the best known spy franchise with what appears to be a first for Bond; a direct sequel. Most of 007's adventures are fairly stand alone with little or no reference to previous films. Will this new avenue be as ingenious as Casino Royale turned out to be or will the temerity of too many changes be to it's detriment?

There is much to expect from this movie. Casino Royale left out all of Bond's gadgets and in fact Q, the creative quartermaster himself. We have yet to see Moneypenny. Will the allusions to Connery's old nemesis S.P.E.C.T.R.E. at the end of Casino be fully realized in this film? Will the movie just simply be as bad as the new theme song we've all been listening to with bleeding ears?

We sit down to chew on this new Bond entry and decide whether it's worthy of great praise or if we'll just chew it a new one. We'll cover the Bond staples of gadgets, girls and baddies, etc... before just looking at the movie as an action film in it's own right. Even if it turns out to be a crappy Bond, how would non-James Bond fans like it? So many people will be heading off to the theaters this Christmas and watching Quantum of Solace simply because it's the big action movie on the block and we settle up on whether or not this is a good action movie sans 007.
