on the weekend, I saw a preview for Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day [link]
I was all France McDormand! Ciaran Hinds! Shirley Henderson! Then Lee Pace came on screen and I think I broke something. I hope this is good.

Look, Angel, I know you've been out of the loop for a while, but I'm still evil. I don't do errands...unless they're evil errands.

Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
More on the Bond thing:
Several reporters at the press launch questioned whether the film makers should have opted for a snappier title. A blogger for the Guardian newspaper was already asking whether it was the "worst Bond title ever?"
Craig defended the name. "At the end of the last movie his heart's been broken and he doesn't have that quantum of solace, he doesn't have that ... closure on what happened in his life and he needs to find out," he told Reuters in an interview.
Of course! He doesn't have that quantum of solace!

Shit's all sorts of different now.
He doesn't have that quantum of solace!
He should talk to Supes. I hear he has one.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Do ya' suppose he doesn't know what quantum means and everyone's afraid to tell him that?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
He has so many quanta he built a fortress.

Outside of a physics context, quantum just means amount. "Quantum of Solace" is one of the short stories in For Your Eyes Only.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
Quantum of Solace is one of the Bond short story names, written back when the series began.

Ann, that's a ferret.
I still don't think it works as a Bond movie title. "Solace" isn't a word most people associate with James Bond.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020
nor "Quantum"
