Quantum of Solace gunbarrel sequence behind the scenes
- Thread starter Samurai8472
- Start date
Alright! Happy to see that a classic gunbarrel sequence will indeed be returning.
Well, Casino Royale was a reboot of the franchise, and as such Bond hadn't *yet* been elevated to the status of a '00' agent until 12(?) minutes into the start of the movie. He also had to prove his mettle in the field to become the gritty, tough Bond that we know. It makes sense that the gun barrel sequence would now appear in Quantum of Solace.

^For the same reason, we only hear snippets of the "James Bond Theme" during the film, until the very end when we finally hear it in full.
I'm glad to see the traditional gunbarrel return. Hopefully they'll forgo the CGI bullet, which was incredibly silly.

Maybe they'll have him hold the gun gangsta' style.
Maybe they can give him two guns, and he can dive across the screen shooting them sideways, like in a John Woo movie.
"Have you ever fired a gun into the air and gone 'Aaaaaahhhhhhh!!!!!!'?"
BTW, brilliant "alternate" Quantum of Solace theme music @ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TMoJRLStD9c .
that was just for die another day
I didn't know if that was the case, or if they'd have kept it going if Bond 21 had been another Brosnan film rather than CR.
I doubt it. That bullet seemed 100% Tamahori.

I think they had the bullet in an ad for an earlier Broz, but not in the actual gunbarrel (GE or TND, maybe?)
Otherwise I'd agree, it fits with his zippyupfucked editing and other stuff that dates the show.
In the DAD commentary, Tamahori states that he wanted to so something special and unique for the 20th, which is why he added the bullet. He also suspected that it would probably not return after DAD.
It was in TND's video game on Playstation if I remember correctly.
