NO WALK ON THE BEACH: No sirree! Spy work is hard! That’s why Bond (Daniel Craig) and Camille (Olga Kurylenko) look so… so… so… sandy? Well, OK, they look great. That’s why they get paid the big bucks. They’re beautiful and know how to deliver fake kicks and punches and fire fake bullets better than most. You can catch the action – and the good looks – in the latest Jame Bond movie, Quantum of Solace.

SEBRING, November 18, 2008 – Bond is back, then he left for the bank!

Quantum of Solace finished the weekend of Nov. 14-16, 2008, as the box office champion for North America. The latest Bond inhaled $67.5 million and averaged a whopping $19,528 at each theater it played.

Surprisingly, Yahoo! users and critics have given it only above average marks. The trailers look good, so I plan to see it.

Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa dropped only 44.5 % in its second week, so it still grossed a hefty $35 million and has already grossed cumulatively $116.9 million in two weeks of release.

Rounding out the Top Three is Role Models with $11.2 million. No other film scored in double digits.
