I can’t believe this. Have any of you read Ian Fleming’s Bond novels, or in this case, Bond short stories? “Quantum Of Solace” was the title of a short story originally published in 1959. The title refers to “a mathematical measure of love”. Bond wasn’t the star of this story, only a bystander, as the old governor of the Caribbean island Bond has been sent to on assignment tells the story of a man named Masters, and his marital problems. When it was re-published in the late 60’s, most of us were disappointed, since it didn’t contain nearly the amount of “sex, sadism, and snobbery” we’d come to expect(whoopee, one mention per book of the point of a breast being “hard with desire”. Pretty torrid stuff, enough that a Bible thumper who visited my parents recommended that they confiscate my Bond collection.

I agree with Carol. People type before they think. However, my rendition of the title is that Bond’s solace this time comes from the lab of Q, short for Quentin or Quantum (what was his mother thinking?). This means that Q – and Q alone – will provide the machinery, ammo and turbocharged weaponry to save the sensitive and poetic Daniel Craig from villainous thugs and thuggish supercrooks, and the world for that matter. Also, somebody will put out to him. Q is the key. M stands for Mrs or Ms.

Don’t people actually think anymore before saying something? “Quantum of Solace” is not hard to decipher. “Quantum” is of miniscule quantity. “Solace” is comfort. Quantum of Solace simply means “a little bit of comfort”, which is what Bond would want after the death of Vesper.

It is cool that they are using a title from an Ian Fleming story, but it is a bit off putting. Quantum Of Solice sound like the title of a film about a lonely wizard that lives on a murky hill in a ramshackle tower.

I never realized how ignorant people have become over the years.

Blech! What a cheap ass title. Sounds like a new-age science book where some guy has read all the books on quantum physics and quantum mechanics and wants to write about a unified theory. Bond is not a scientist, nor does he need to be, and the title does not suggest anything “Bond-like”. There are no balls in the title.
