"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
I'm going to save you some time: James Bond Movie

"She's Out of Your League"
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

I thought ... well it LOOKED like he was nailing Strawberry Fields. My bad.
I liked it a lot, I think this Bond is the best so far and while this isn't the best movie in the franchise at least he wasn't borderline homosexual like Roger Moore. This one had too much action though.

He did nail Strawberry Fields.
But, thinking back on previous Bond films, the situation with the Bond girls kind of reminds me of Licence To Kill. Where he teams up with a female agent and doesn't sleep with her, but sleeps with the secondary woman. If you haven't seen that one in a while go back and watch it, Benicio Del Torro is in it. Funny as hell.

It really felt to me more like a generic action film than a "Bond" film, although a large-scale sequence at the end reminded me of some of the "bad guy's lair" stuff we used to see in the later Connery and most of the Moore Bond films.
I like that the "rebooted" Bond has less gadgetry this time around, but "Quantum" took too much of that out. The newer films show more technology back at HQ... in the older ones (with the exception of Q's lab), it seems like most of the high-tech stuff was out in the field with Bond.
The world-wide "Quantum" plot is not entirely bad - it gives Bond a shadowy organization to find, root out, and eliminate, rather than resurrecting the Cold War or turning him loose against drug lords or terrorists. On the other hand, it seems as if these people are motivated by money, not ideology. Following the money flows, interrogating suspects and chasing the resulting leads seem like the way to dismantle this sort of worldwide enterprise - is Bond the right sort of person to do this work, rather than the FBI, CIA and Interpol?

Well, Bond is MI6 which is the British version of the CIA and he has his American counterpart Felix Leiter in the CIA.
"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

I looked at the movie and thought it was amazing. With all James Bond films, I think you have to view it a few times for it to click and make sence. I had to view Casino Royale about three times for that movie to click (plus numerous other re-plays on the DVD of it)
My thoughts about this is that Casino Royale laid the story-line and plot foundation for this movie. That is why I rented Casino Royal and viewed it like a few times from start to finish, before watching Quantum.
Quantum ties up the loose-ends and expands on the background of the Casino Royale movie into an intense action picture -- so I don't see Quantum as being a DIFFERENT movie from Casino Royale, but more like Part Two of Casino Royale.
