I did feel sorry about "Fields" such a cutie, why is it that no one wants to bang that other girl? not even mark wahlberg wanted that poontang in max payne, does she stink? WTF?
I don't know. I do like watching Roger Moore Bond films, but I would never say those were good movies. They were too silly. Remember the Casio fax watch in Spy Who Loved Me? Or the submersible Lotus, for that matter?

I think it's time for Q to come back though. Q in Casino Royale or Quantum of Solace would've been a distraction. Especially since Bond wasn't even at MI6 at any point in those movies. But since the next movie will, presumably, have M and Bond flushing out rest of "Quantum", I can see Q outfitting Bond with crazy scifi, yet somehow plausible gadgets for his missions. I did hope though, during Quantum of Solace, that someone would break those crazy MI6 projection glass walls by accident, so that they'd have to call Q up to where M was.
