    Elvis is enjoying the music.

    The opera ? Elvis cracks me up in that scene ,and the look the other henchman gives him.

    It's pretty funny.

    Bond and Greene make eye contact in the corridor. Amalric has a great facial expression there.

    One of my favourite villains.....the whole facade hiding a complete nutter.

    Well cast, too. I think Amalric is underrated.

    Yeah, I like this character. I actually prefer him to Silva and Waltz Blofeld.

    Fields. Gemma is great.
    Good rapport here.

    Bond takes one look at the hotel and leaves.

    we have just won the lottery.

    That got a huge laugh in the cinema.

    I hope B25 has more Craig moments like this. He oozes charm in QOS.

    Great performance as Bond.

    Almaric is very good in QoS indeed. To a degree his bouts of unpredictability remind me of Klaus Maria Brandauer's Largo, and I like them both. They are both cogs in a larger enterprise, and similarly nurse inferiority complexes.

    That's a good comparison. They are quite similar.

    I love when Camille shows up and interrupts Greene's conversation.

    Greene's reaction is classic.

    Craig's rapport with Olga is spot on.


    Mathis dies in Bond's arms....................

    Her reactions are strong.

    Bond and Camille walk for miles in the desert. I love these shots.

    I also liked her backstory section. Reminds me a bit of Bond and Honey's conversation in DR NO.

    Bond and Felix have a drink at the bar.

    Another one of my favorite scenes.

    Although QOS is full of action scenes, I feel it plays more like a thriller.

    There is no question that Camille is my favorite Bond girl of the Craig era.
    She's great.

    Never noticed it before, but Greene just gave Elvis the remains of his apple.

    I agree, and that is one of its strongest elements. There is an almost 70's aspect to it (everyone has some baggage and nobody is perfect - it's difficult to separate the good from the bad). To a degree I think that may have hurt it at the box office. The relative simplicity of SF (revenge) in combination with its emotional heft perhaps is more in tune with what today's audience demands.

    QoS has a certain real world grit to it visually, and really benefits from the on-location shoots. This is something they'd better remember for B25. A far cry from the washed out (and somewhat cartoonesque) digitized fare they gave us in the last outing.
