Just saw "Quantum of Solace".  Great movie.  Lots of fun.  Incredible action, nice non-action moments, some cool spy stuff, and hot girls.  All the right elements for a James Bond movie.
 
Daniel Craig makes a great James Bond.  He may be different from previous, but he's definitely filling the role.  The wardrobe they put him in for this movie reminds me of Sean Connery's wardrobe.  Or really, maybe it was just 1960's stylish wardrobe for guys.  Either way, he looked great.
 
I saw an interesting interview with someone from the London Imperial War Museum.  They are currently running an exhibit on Ian Fleming and James Bond.  This museum high-mucky-muck was stating that Daniel Craig's portrayal of Bond was the closest to the original Ian Fleming novels (even more so than Connery's).  I haven't read the novels myself, but I thought it was interesting to hear this man say that.
 
Here is a link regarding the exhibit:

I love Daniel Craig's Bond! He brings a gritty, dangerous element to
the character that wasn't there before, and that makes Bond sexy in a
completely different way. To be honest, I didn't really care about the
modern Bond films until Craig stepped into the role.

Taye Diggs is a total cutie, but I'm not seeing him as Bond for some
reason. Maybe if he were taller?
