Is This The First Bond 22 Poster?

Is This The First Bond 22 Poster? I’m still trying to figure out the point of the title for the new James Bond flick, Quantum of Solace. Not only does it not flow very well, but it just doesn’t sound very Bondish. That’s not to say the franchise hasn’t had some silly titles in the past, but this one just doesn’t feel like those other strange titles.

Now Toxic Shock has gotten their hands on the first poster bearing the Quantum of Solace name and it fits the poster mold as well as the name fits, which is to say, not very well. In fact, I’m not confident this is a genuine poster. It looks a little fake to me (although I’ve thought that about real posters in the past as well).

Thematically the poster does follow up the images of Daniel Craig in the advertising for Casino Royale, but the layout of the poster and the text at the bottom feels like a throwback to an older time – something Casino Royale didn’t quite have. Why would the producers build on the last movie but in a retro way?

I’m hoping all the bitching about the movie title and this leaked poster is the extent of complaining I get to do about the next Bond picture. I saw a lot of potential in Daniel Craig and Casino Royale and I’m hoping they maintain that for another picture. Right now it looks like they’re just trying to hard. Hopefully that’s not a problem with the movie itself as well.

UPDATE! This is not a real poster, but the first REAL Bond 22 poster has just been released. You can see it HERE.
