BONDing moment

Just watched the new Bond movie “ Quantum of Solace”.

Well… what could I say… whew it went beyond my expectations.

It’s the most adrenalin-pumping movie in the series yet, a pure rush right from the car chase in the opening scene.

But I won’t spoil the you with the other details.

You just have to watch it to enjoy the ride.

As I’ve mentioned in a blog 2 years back, watching a Bond movie has always been an intimate experience for me.. a communion of sorts.

This time around I had the pleasure of watching it with my youngest bro and youngest sis.

It’s probably the Bond fan in me that makes me remember the folks I was with when I watched the movie for the first time.

My dad, my unc, bro # 2 for The Spy Who Loved Me

My mom, bro #1 for For Your Eyes Only ( I remember this vividly because we had to cut classes haha)

Jazz Ramiro for GoldenEye

Ms Doctolero for The World Is Not Enough

Pazette and Darwin for Die Another Day ( the only Bond movie I watched outside the Philippines)( thanks for the poster Pazette, I still have it with me)

Person X for Casino Royale ( I was under the specific instruction not to reveal the name until maybe after 5 years for some funny but very valid reason)

Bro # 3, sis # 3 for Quantum of Solace

Guess I owe sis #1 and sis #2 a date when the next Bond movie comes out.

It’ll be a 2-year wait but I think it’ll be worth it.. Yeba !
