All I'll say about the next James Bond title

Quantum of Solace sounds like a location I'd expect to find in Diablo 2.

Then again, I snerked at the title of the ultimate Harry Potter book, and it's not like it took a hit, sales-wise.

It's one of the Bond short stories, like "Octopussy" or "A View to a Kill." And, like "A View," the movie will likely have nothing to do with the story, mainly because Bond isn't in the story - it's being told to him.

Tomorrow Never Dies sounds like one of those "grammatically correct but logically meaningless" sentences.

James Bond: Colorless Green Ideas Sleep Furiously!

Were the writers, producers, director drunk/high when they were thinking of the title?

That sounds like a bad LSD trip.

Oh, I know the source (and have read it), but it's a shitty title.

Man, you've just spoiled the title for the next film!

I'm guessing they used a focus group consisting entirely of fans of Fleming's writing (who were familiar with the title already) and winos pulled of the street (who were happy to take $75 to help pick a title).

Yeah, they could call it Ass of Anus and it'd still make $50 million its first weekend.

I believe that "Ass of Anus" is reserved for the fifth Indiana Jones movie.
