As you (should) know, Bond 22, Quantum of Solace, is coming out this November 14th. In honor of this momentous occasion, I have decided to spend a little time each week digging into my Bond DVD collection and talking about the best and worst of the series up until now. I also like to compare the movies to the source material, when it exists. I find all of this very entertaining, but if you don’t, the scroll button is still right over there. >>>>>
Thunderball is one of the stranger James Bond books. Author Ian Fleming liked trying out new formulas, and in this one, he decided to throw Bond out of his element a little. In the beginning, he has Bond’s boss M taking a personal interest in the agent’s health. He then sends Bond off to Shrublands, a health clinic from the era when “free radicals” were considered to be the ultimate threat to one’s well-being.
