I have a strange feeling that I'm not alone in this. Casino Royale is the best Bond film to date. Period. After watching it I was blown away at the action and intensity of the story. Maybe that's because my previous favorite Bond film was Goldeneye and the man who directed that also directed Casino Royale. Now to the matter at hand.
I'm worried about Quantum of Solace. I was extremely pumped after seeing the first preview but now I gotta say I'm starting to feel the pressure. I have no doubt that it is going to open to a huge box office, but I think it's going to be a mediocre sequel, something the Bond franchise has never done before. Also, the director, Marc Forster (The Kite Runner) has never directed an action film. Weighing in the fact that this is going to be the shortest Bond film following the longest one, doesn't sit well.
On the bright side, Daniel Craig is going to be phenomenal. Olga Kurylenko is fucking hot. Although, I am curious as to why she is playing a Spanish chick even though she's from the Ukraine, but I guess I'll find out. I will leave you with one thing: It doesn't hurt going into a movie with low expectations, because you never know if the level will be raised when the movie ends.
