This may not be any new imagery, since we've seen it in the trailer before, but Sony has officially released a new teaser poster for Quantum of Solace that you'll find on the wall in your local theater this weekend when you go see The Dark Knight. I love the progression of these posters, from just the shadow, now to the full image of Daniel Craig standing with his gun, poised for battle. I'm not fully a fan of these grittier new Bonds with Craig, at least in comparison to the classic Bonds, but these poster

Gemma Arterton: Daniel Craig is best screen kisser
Actress Gemma Arterton has confessed she preferred her onscreen kiss with Daniel Craig than her clinch with Mackenzie Crook. The 22-year-old shared a screen kiss with Crook during their new movie Three and Out - but the star reluctantly admits Craig has a better technique. She says, "They can't be compared. They're very different scenes. One is tender and loving and the other is passionate. "Asking me to choose which one I'd date is so unfair, that's horrible. I'd rather go out with someone complet

Alicia Keys to Take On James Bond?
Alicia Keys as a Bond Girl? Not exactly. But I just got word that the songbird is the top contender to sing the title song for the next James Bond flick, Quantum of Solace. No official announcement has been made, but a source tells me, "I believe Alicia is the winner." There have been a lot of rumors surrounding the highly coveted spot to belt one out for 007. A gaggle of artists reportedly submitted songs for consideration to producers of the 22nd Bond film, including Beyoncé, Leona Lewis, Dur

Amy's Bond revenge
This should leave James Bond bosses shaken and stirred. Amy Winehouse, 24, plans to finish the tune she started writing with Mark Ronson, 32, for Quantum Of Solace and put it out at the same time as the new theme by Alicia Keys and Jack White. Amy told me she wants to “prove that they have made a big mistake”. She added, “I do think they could have waited a bit. If they want a worldwide hit, I have them all up here [pointing to her beehive]. "I guess they are going for clean-cut and boring

Fall Movie Preview
Buzz off if you think the big fall whoop is "High School Musical 3." Or Jennifer Aniston and Owen Wilson trying to steal scenes from a dog in Marley and Me. Or Robert De Niro and Al Pacino slumming in another paycheck movie in Righteous Kill. My admittedly selective guide to what's up in film for the rest of 2008 is all about punch and provocation. Sequels get the shaft, including Saw V (enough already), but Quantum of Solace (November 7th) earns a pass because Daniel Craig is so damn good at letting us wat
