You don't have to worry about me...

Another Bond trail.

Slick and tough, looks good. The new Bond film is reportedly going to pick up 5 minutes after Casino Royale. An interesting idea and a departure from the old school format of; opening with the end of a mission we only see the climax of and into a new mission. This will surely require audiences to have seen Royale, or at least know the story for the true Solace experience? Short sighted, elitist film making or a cleaver tie in? Bond is such a huge institution these days, I guess they don't have to worry too much about reaching everyone. It proably will anyway, and if you feel you would benifit from seeing Royale after watching Solace, it's avaliable on DVD. Win win.

It looks good and with Marc Forster at the helm it should have heart, let's hope he can deliver action. His first phyisical movie from a stunts point of view - quess you leave that stuff up to Gary Powell and his stunt team. His influences shine through, the Bourn feel to the stunts in the triailer, jumping from a roof to a bacony. Bad ass.

Plus it's due for release on my birthday...
