The five James Bond movies with Daniel Craig make an interconnected story: Casino Royale, Quantum of Solace, Skyfall, Spectre and No Time to Die.

@oliverconway6960 Год назад

That's never happened in any of the other Bond eras.

@turbolid Год назад

@@oliverconway6960 In some movies of the other Bond eras there was some references to older Bond movies like the fact that Bond was married and his wife died, that Spectre tried to kill Bond many times, that Jaws appeared in two movies as a villain, but there was never a central link betweeen those Bond movies and is more safe to assume that every actor played a different interation of James Bond with some things about the character history in common. If it was the same the same Bond since the 60's, he would be frozen in time because the world advanced until the 2020's but Bond remained young until now.

@@ComeOnIsSuchAJoy That's true, but they're not really as big as the story being told in the Craig era. Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace both serve as Parts 1 and 2 of a prologue.

RE: unpopular opinion - I agree with you, I thought this was an excellent follow-up to what was set-up in the first movie, despite that there was a writer's strike during production and they had to shoot with an early draft and imporv whatever wasn't working. In a "happy accident" sort of way, that may be the reason the pacing was better - there was nobody to write any new dialog, so they just cut to the chase a lot (or fight or shootout or aerial combat sequence or the other chase with the boats... yeah, a LOT happens and it's a *short* movie) Most people thought it was a step down from the first one and one of the weaker Daniel Craig movies, but it does have a vocal cult of supporters. I like how we picked *right* after the first movie, like *minutes* later, and continued the story as if no time had passed. The previous movies played it fast and loose with continuity so it didn't really matter which one you started with or what order you watched them in, but it did build this loosely connected world some actual history over time. This time, it's a really tight, connected series of stories that build and develop, and I thought this was an excellent second outing, because it was different enough to let us know that each new movie will not just be another mission and another girl, but will also be the next phase of his life.

@michaelbriefs9764 Год назад

Addie, no judgement here! I understand why you connected with this one more than Casino Royale, especially since you pointed out the pace of QOS was quicker/tighter. Casino Royale started with the origins of Bond's 00-status. He had just gotten hired as 007 so they spent more time setting the stage for his part of the franchise. Also, the main section of the film was a high-stakes poker game, so you had to expect some quiet and slow parts (even though they broke the "slow" game up with very tense/exciting parts). And, you're right, starting out with Casino Royale is ambitious. If they had started with something more concise like QOS it might have gone differently but they started with a story that was more "epic", longer, and with more nuance/depth. But, it's good that you had the patience to get through the first one with open-mindedness about what might come next. In this case, you were rewarded with something more your cup of tea! That's great! We are psyched for you to go to the next level with Skyfall, Spectre, and No Time to Die! All of these are great movies! After Sean Connery, Daniel Craig is the best Bond. You are going to fall in love with this franchise! Keep going!

@MattRowland Год назад

Agree. IMO, it is a misunderstood Bond film. People focused too much on the villain and that he wasn't that great, but that wasn't the point of this movie. This film was 100% about Bond dealing with his grief and his guilt.

@hadoken95 Год назад

@@hadoken95i tried to watch spectre, it was nearly unwatchable for me. bond fights this giant guy in the beginning in a very comedic manner, and it didn't fit with the serious tone of the craig bond films at all. i actually think i watched it all but it wasn't memorable and it's the only craig bond film i never had the desire to watch again and i never will. i've seen some people in the comments saying they think spectre is better than skyfall, which is just crazy to me. they must just be trying to be edgy by going against popular opinion. don't get me wrong, i pretty often disagree with the majority on things, but in this case the majority definitely has it right.

@sbk4me Год назад

Hi Addie! You're right girl! This was darker and deeper. Lots of death and lots of bad people. Bond and M are terrific and truly need each other. For the next one, remember the people behind this. The organization that trails all the way back from the older Bonds, and through Casino Royale, and to Skyfall and beyond. You will remember. Enjoy, Thanks again!!!

Her backstory is literally on her back --- burn scars from surviving her home being burned down by the general when she was a child.

@LokRevenant Год назад

The song played during the credits was written by Jack White and performed by him and Alicia Keys. The great irony of this is that Jack wrote the LEGENDARY riff to Seven Nation Army, but his roommate didn't think it was any good. So, Jack tucked the riff away in case he ever got to do a Bond theme one day. Then The White Stripes released Seven Nation Army as a single from their fourth album, Elephant, and that album and that song launched them into superstardom. Five years later, Jack is asked to collaborate on an original Bond theme with Alicia Keys.

@smavtmb2196 Год назад

Every James bond is different. Some bonds are serious. Others played the role more humorously. Each has its good points. Daniel's bond has humor but is more serious. Addie It's too bad you didn't start at the beginning. Especially since you haven't been introduced to the longest running bond character Q. Q and his technology team create gadgets, weapons and trick cars for agents like Bond. The orginal Q actor Desmond Llewelyn became iconic and beloved in the role and was in 17 Bond movies between 1963-1999. He was tragically killed in a car accident. Q did not appear in Casino Royale or Quantum of Solace. Daniel Craig expressed concern over the character's absence, and expressed his hope that Q would return in Skyfall. Sure enough a new actor inherent the iconic role starting in Skyfall, but for the first time ever Q was now younger than Bond.

@donaldfleming5049 Год назад

@greencello599 Год назад

The Daniel Craig era of James Bond was a connected story where everything is tied together in one way or another. For a full understanding of the franchise as a whole, this is the pattern of James Bond: Connery, Lazenby, Connery, Moore, Dalton, Brosnan, and Craig. Dalton and Craig are considered to be the actors to be the closest to the literary Bond, despite the time periods they were set in. Brosnan portrayed a post-Cold War James Bond. Made a quick quip, but was cold and calculating against his enemies. Craig, as you saw in this and Casino Royale, is the post-9/11 James Bond. The rules of the spy game changed after the end of the Cold War. To face off against a ruthless foe, one needs to be more ruthless in fighting for the safety of all. Judi Dench played M for 7 movies, beginning with Goldeneye, which I hope you make time to see along with more classic entries of this franchise.

@tduffy5 Год назад

Royale was foundational. They had to flesh out characters and organizations.

@Findo_Gask Год назад

If you want to understand the character of Bond you need to watch the movies from the 60s in order. Sean Connery is the reason these movies became popular and are still being made.

@dan_hitchman007 Год назад

Hey Addie, if you are enjoying these James Bond films, I would suggest that you go back to the beginning after the Daniel Craig series and then watch the classic Bonds in release order starting with Doctor No. You get a much better idea of the time periods and sensibilities of the eras in which they were produced (and it is very important that you set aside any modern points of view in order to enjoy them more - they definitely were a product of their time). There are also a few small story elements that are referenced throughout that only make sense if you watch them in order, even though they are mostly stand alone adventures. Sean Connery's "Never Say Never Again" is the only outlier in the franchise as it is not an "officially sanctioned" 007 film.

@Gort-Marvin0Martian Год назад

I was about to write the same. I will say, having read some of Ian Flemings Bond novels, Daniel Craig is more tike the Bond in the books. But can you imagine being in a theater watching Doctor No??? That would have been a very big WOW!! As we say here in Texas; Y'all be safe.

@dan_hitchman007 Год назад

@@Gort-Marvin0Martian Sure, but even Daniel Craig was becoming unhappy with how much of a sour puss his Bond was becoming. He wanted a bit of levity added to the role. He was getting burnt out on the character.

@vetarlittorf1807 Год назад

@@Gort-Marvin0Martian No. I think Timothy Dalton is closer to Fleming's Bond. Craig is too blond and too bulky. He's also too impulsive. Bond in the books had more of a film noir feel to him. Which is why Dr. No is the closest to the books in terms of tone and atmosphere. Sean Connery fit that very well, although he was more sexually active than Bond was in the books. If I were to rank the Bonds based on accuracy, it would be: 1. Timothy Dalton. 2. Sean Connery. 3. Daniel Craig. 4. Pierce Brosnan. 5. George Lazenby. 6. Roger Moore.

@pistonburner6448 Год назад

Never Say Never Again is in no way really "unsanctioned", it just wasn't made by Broccoli and his production company. The producer of that film had rights to the Ian Fleming book, so he was allowed to make that Bond film just as much as Broccoli was allowed to make his. They're all based on Ian Fleming's material, they're all equally "genuine" and "official" Bond-movies. And Never Say Never Again is in no way inferior to the other Bond films, in fact it's one of the top Bond movies IMO.

@dan_hitchman007 Год назад

@@pistonburner6448 Do you realize that NSNA is "Thunderball" with only minor changes? They couldn't even get the rights to the Bond theme. Officially, only movies sanctioned by the Fleming estate were "true" Bond films. Those were EON's Bond films. There was even a lawsuit to try and stop NSNA from being produced. It was a legal technicality that "Thunderball's" media rights were not shorn up and that allowed the film to move forward.

Hey Addie. Long time sub. First time commenter. I like this movie more than Casino too. For all the reasons you stated. They are all connected and the next three are the bomb. James meets the true love of his life and eventually makes the ultimate sacrifice. Very emotional, very well told. If it doesn't bring you to tears in the finale, there's something wrong. And remember, it's okay to cry in these reactions. It's what we WANT to see. At least I do. The emotional reactions are the best. Keep doin' whatcha do!!! Regards from Illinois. ✌&❤

@maximillianosaben Год назад

I think this movie is underrated, but it is very flawed. It suffered from, I believe, a writer's strike effecting the story/script, as well as being handed off to a different editor part way through post-production. The editing, especially in the early half of the movie, is far too fast and just unnecessarily choppy. Very disorienting to piece together simple actions that just took place. Still think it's a solid Bond film though.

No need to apologize for your opinion Addie. You feel how you feel. However, I would say that I agree with your own assessment that perhaps it was a matter of you settling into the franchise in a second film that made you like Bond more. I would wager, that if you were to watch these films again somewhere down the road, you would probably prefer Casino Royal over Quantum of Solace. It is more of a cerebral and romantic thriller in the grand tradition of the Bond books and more familiarity with the tropes of the franchise will likely help you appreciation of it.

I'd suggest you read "Casino Royale" (1953) at some point. It's short, practically a novella. Ian Fleming also wrote the children's book: "Chitty-Chitty-Bang-Bang" (1964). The title "Quantum of Solace" comes from Fleming's eighth book "For Your Eyes Only" which contains five short Bond stories.

@ComeOnIsSuchAJoy Год назад

When Craig took over, I thought maybe they were finally going to knock out the rest of the Fleming-derived titles, since they started right off the bat with "Casino Royale" and "Quantum of Solace"... but nothing since then; still no "Risico," "The Hildebrand Rarity," or "The Property of a Lady." I'm perfectly OK with them never using the pedestrian "007 in New York," though.

Casino Royale was a new recruit, struggling to become Bond. QoS was a dead-hearted operative who could be anything but Bond. That`s why the pacing was different.

@simondover569 10 месяцев назад

QoS was my favourite too.

@sachaallari592 Год назад

Skyfall is the best of the Daniel Craig Bond films in my opinion as it felt like an old-school Bond movie, Casino Royal I agree it does have pacing issues as it stayed true to its source material.

@luxurybuzz3681 Год назад

Casino Royale is the best

@SachMan4 Год назад

@@luxurybuzz3681 that's why I said in my opinion, my problem with Royal is it's pacing is all over the place for the first hour it's action scene after action scene with very little in terms of plot then when we get to the Casino it's the book adapted to perfection but the pace is slowed right down before it becomes a huge action spectical again. But that's just me, I wish I felt it was the best out of the Craig films but I'm afraid I'm team Skyfall.

You're watching the complicated bond meant for millennial video game culture. You love the more gentrified characters of early movies. My fave however is die another day.

@douglaslafreniere5707 Год назад

Skyfall is my favorite , fantastic cast it also shows a little different side to Bond . Nominated for 5 academy awards winning 2 and grossed over 1 Billion dollars

@ComeOnIsSuchAJoy Год назад

As much as I enjoy "Skyfall," I can't ignore the fact that it has the same basic premise as "GoldenEye," even if both movies have very different approaches. I know it's not the first Bond movie to reuse a basic premise from one of the previous movies, but it's pretty much the most highly acclaimed one to do so.

@luxurybuzz3681 Год назад

@ComeOnIsSuchAJoy Skyfall Act 1 - Retires and comes back later like in The Dark Knight Rises Act 2 - Villain is caught and it was his plan all along like in The Dark Knight. Act 3 - Home Alone rip off

@ComeOnIsSuchAJoy Год назад

@@luxurybuzz3681 In the sense that both "GoldenEye" and "Skyfall" center around an MI6 agent who was left for dead on a past mission - and long presumed dead as a result - finally comes out of hiding for some 'payback' is what I meant.

@jimspetdragons3737 Год назад

Many people have trouble connecting w/ this Bond. He's too serious compared to the other Bonds. It took me 3 movies to get to like him even a little. He's not a "fun" Bond. I never connected w/ George Lazenby either. The "fun" Bonds, in order, are Roger Moore, Sean Connery, Pierce Brosnan, Timothy Dalton, Daniel Craig, & George L (can't remember too much about him, so he may be higher on the list). The "best" Bond is very subjective, but the consensus will probably show that Connery is the best. I think Brosnan is the "ideal" Bond. Moore is the most fun w/ a quite campy take w/ the humor. Dalton is a sleeper much like Brosnan, but many like others better. My fav are the Moore & Brosnan bonds as they are fun and likeable. They are the kings of cool vs the others. Do check out other Bonds Craig is very popular, but not the best Bond for everyone. That's likely Brosnan, the medium (in the middle) between fun & serious of the Bonds.

I really like the Craig bond series, they feel more faithful to the books (Bond was a pretty horrible person in the books, that's what makes him a great agent) but I miss the older comedy focus Bonds, especially Moore.

Finally one of my personal favourite bond movie. Definitely not a best one in the entire series but this one holds a special place in my heart. The only James Bond DVD that i could avail as Casino Royale was out of stock (people were always buying that😅). I watched the heck out of this movie. Numerous rewinds and forwards that the poor DVD scatched and worn out so much😅. My DVD Player too. Nostalgic memories. That DVD still today works after all those tortures. BTW, this one has the best opening for a bond movie. A deadly car chase.😁 So Gritty. Fun Fact : This movie is not liked so much because of it's choppy 🪓 editing and not so good script. But, for a movie made at the time of a WRITER'S STRIKE this movie still holds and sticks together. So, Daniels and the director has to take matter into their hands i.e., becoming a writer himself to write a movie during production and acting in it😅😅. Also, Daniel Craig has stated in numerous interviews that how the much WRITER'S STRIKE impacted this movie and how much WRITER's are important to a movie. Also, YAY !! Congratulations 👏🎉 History is Repeating Itself. Now We're at a WRITER'S Strike and hollywood studios are freaking. Let's hope we've learned our lessons from the past and hollywood studios would tame their head weighted minds so hereafter that the upcoming movies won't suffer from bad writings😅😅 Mathis Dead Scene, Camille's revenge and overcoming Childhood trauma, Bond letting go of Vesper. This movie is all about forgiveness and finding peace. Hence, the name quantum of solace. Google, 'Quantum of Solace' meaning, you'll find it. It's always a pleasure to watch this movie. ❤❤

@alextan1478 Год назад

Addie, Quantum of Solace (2008) looks like an awesome sequel to Casino Royale (2006). I'm looking forward to watching this movie, tonight. I'm also looking forward to seeing you watch Skyfall (2012), soon.

@alextan1478 Год назад

@drewskull5181 Год назад

This movie gets a bad rap. There was a writer's strike that didn't help. However, this is the first Bond movie I took my oldest son to in the theaters so it holds a special place in my heart. Some of the action sequences are fantastic IMO.

Definitely think that Quantum of Solace gets more hate than it deserves. I didn't really like it that much at first but having re-watched it a few times I've come to enjoy it. That being said, Casino Royale and Skyfall are both miles better to me. I do think that Quantum of Solace suffers from coming directly after Casino Royale which was a masterpiece imo.

@JulianP311 Год назад

Ironic that this reaction is out now. This movie suffered because it was made just as writers were striking. Some changes they wanted to make couldn’t be made ‘correctly’ without writers. And, today, writers are on strike again!

This movie definitely doesn't get a ton of love, but I think it's better than many people remember. Plus it has one of my favorite scenes of the Daniel Craig movies -- the Opera scene. *That* is classic Bond in my opinion. He gets all of that intel on everyone by playing it smart and it's just such a terrific scene as well as the music/opera piece going at the same time. And I cannot wait for the next one. A lot of people have 'Casino Royale' as their favorite, but for me it's 'Skyfall' and it's not even close. I absolutely love that movie and it is hands down the best of the Daniel Craig movies.

@TheNotoriousCheeto Год назад

There is a chance that Adie is doing herself a disservice by starting with the Craig films. She misses a lot of the callbacks, such as the iconic pose of Agent Fields' death. Also, regarding the pacing, Quantum of Solace is actually one of my least favorite Bond films for that very reason. It is much more of a generic action flick. Bond films are a lot more about espionage. There are meant to be those slower moments where the activity is more cerebral than physical. Because of this, there is a chance that Adie will be disappointed if/when she moves to the Connery or Moore films.

@seannovack3834 Год назад

As a reader of the novels, Craig is my favorite Bond next to Timothy Dalton. That said, I'm not a fan of what the films wrap him up in. To be more precise: With the exception of Skyfall and Casino Royale, the scripts the writers handed in sucked. I get that this is supposed to be a reboot, but it's so obvious that the Bourne and Mission Impossible franchises are leeching in that it's becoming hard for Bond to be Bond. I don't come to Bond to see Jason Bourne.
