Casino Royale / Quantum of Solace | |||||||||
Amazon | |||||||||
Comments | Blaine: Logical packaging to some degree. In my opinion, Quantum of Solace is the only Bond film that doesn’t stand alone, but instead needs to follow immediately after Casino Royale. Why they didn’t go for a three pack with Skyfall is something I don’t understand. Perhaps there was a rights issue following MGM’s financial troubles? | ||||||||

Finally, the picks of the week. Blaine says, “Skyfall and Matlock: Season Eight are my must-haves this week. Many of the single Bond releases would outweigh Matlock if I hadn’t picked up the 50th Anniversary Box Set last year.” Alex’s pick(s) will appear later in the comments.
While, as a wrestling fan, the Best of WCW Nitro, Vol. 2 tempts me, Skyfall outweighs it by leaps and bounds. Best of WCW will be going in the Netflix queue though, and I really need to get around to watching Fushigi Yugi, as that’s one of those shows that everyone was talking about when I was a younger, but I never got around to watching.
