Olga Kurylenko - Enough said for me..... mmmmmm..... Watch the movie Hitman for no reason other than her.

Oh, and Quantum as a movie was so-so.

Despite the negative press, I really enjoyed this. I think the action sequences would have
benefited from less editing, but the characters, plotting and humour carried me through.
Definitely a decent sequel.

No rough versions of scenes - would have been nice, given what the BBFC said here in the
UK:

"This film was originally seen by the BBFC in an unfinished version, for advice as to the film's
suitability at '12A'. The BBFC advised the company that the film would most likely receive a
'12A' as it was, but that care should be taken when finishing the film not to increase the
intensity of certain scenes. When the completed version of the film was submitted for
classification, reductions to one of those scenes had been made and the film was passed '12A'
without cuts."

A scene whose initial cut was then changed? Could they not put that on the release? Oh well.

Not to thrilled that Fox/MGM is handling the distribution. I was hoping that Sony had the rights for distribution. Just happy that it's coming to BD

Day 1 for me. For those wanting more extras I'm sure they'll be doing a supa-dupa double-disc version within a year As someone has already said having Olga Kurylenko in it makes it worth a purchase Made Hitman and Max Payne better films (though she doesn't last long in Max Payne, mores the pity)

Looks to be quite light on extras - presumably they are saving those for the inevitable SE/CE that will be released in time for Bond 23. Still, I loved Solace and this is a day one purchase for me.

Hopefully I can tell what's happening during the action scenes on the small screen.

Olga Kurylenko and the Boat Chase - may watch that before even watching the movie

@KretzJ - I bought the movie Hitman pretty much just to see her :P It was only $9.99 though, so it was pretty hard to pass up

Still hoping to see some official word showing those Norwegian rumours being false

Why Fox? I thought Sony handled new MGM movies and it's coproduced by Columbia Pictures.

SPOILER ALERT!!!!









Easily one of the worst James Bond movies ever. The Bolivian water supply? Come on. I'm going
to pass on this title.
