I thought it felt like more of a Bond film than Casino Royale.

Casino Royale was the best bond film since Goldeneye

And if you want to argue against the above, please don't use the "butz he's blond yo yo"

ROFL

I guess maybe I think its good is because it was pierce brosnans only good bond film, it had sean bean in it, and the n64 game made it nostalgically immense

N64 was way better

The movie part of it had too many puns, goddamn Alan Cumming and his goddamn annoying personality.

It was a great movie, but not a great "Bond" movie.

My preferred option involves Sean Bean. Your argument is invalid.

Boromir!

And the guy from Ronin

The guy from Silent Hill (Useless character, but Bean still did something with him, although they could have cast him in a harry mason role and made him the main character)

Seriously one of the better british actors of the middle aged generation

It was just an hour and a half of him running.

CRAZY GUY, RUN AFTER HIM.
GET IN THE EMBASSY, RUN AROUND IT.
FUEL TRUCK, RUN AFTER IT.
BLACK GUYS, RUN AFTER THEM.

It wasn't a good bond film, it wasn't a good film. It was as bad as Die Another Day.

Also Sean Bean is immense. Fuck yeah Martin in Oblivion.

Weeeeeeeaaak....

It was a film with full of action but no story. It lacked humour and proper storyline, it was a major disappointment after Casino Royale. Action scenes reminded me of Bourne films but they were worse. I expected a much better film.

The main dastardly deed had less than 30 seconds screentime.

This was an all new low for James Bourne-I mean Bond.



Something tells me they were aiming for the teenage demographic rather than dedicated fans.

This is why the film didn't have a huge marketing campaign except TV spots and literally TV spots for selling TVs or sound systems. They knew it was going to suck, I seen it a mile away when no one was excited for it.

I watched Casino Royale in the cinemas, and it was brilliant. Quantum of Solace continious from Casino Royale, first Bond film ever to do that. Anyways I wanted to watch it in cinema, but m8s aint got money to go.

This looks like it's aiming for the teen demographic. Ironically, that turns me away immediately.
