The premise of this movie was absolutely retarded. Why would someone want to control all the water in some third world shithole like Bolivia? Even if you did, how would that make you rich? They even showed scenes of those poor indio villagers. What's his next step, extorting Amazonian villagers?

I think they wanted leverage over the government to do weird quantum/specter stuff unimpeded

Bump

The Bolovian government? Who gives a fuck? Even if you controlled Bolivia how would that make you powerful?

you control the third largest market in america if you control bolivia

taking the water is pointless because it'll just rain again. water is free.

I haven't seen this movie since it came out, is it as bad as they say? I barely remember it.

Bolivia's population is just 11 million clay skinned poor indios. You saw how they lived in the movie.

It was pretty stupid in my opinion other than the action scene at the beginning. Spectre is much better.

they were going to pee in lake titicaca

The movie clearly showed that Bolivia was just one of many projects Quantum was working on. They're a global network. The Bolivian scheme just happened to be the one that Bond uncovered.

Kek'd irl

>The premise of this movie was absolutely retarded. Why would someone want to control all the water in some third world shithole like Bolivia? Even if you did, how would that make you rich?

It lets you charge whatever you want for it since people literally can't live without water.
As far as supervillain plots go it's extremely underwhelming though, especially since it's based on a real thing that happened and it's not like the world ended or anything, it was just a local problem.

Holding a country hostage, even if it’s a poor country, would still be extremely lucrative. You could literally extort the government for all they’re worth and they would have to pay or all their citizens die.

Based Pooh.

It's actually my favorite Craig movie and I cringe everytime people bitch about the villain and his plot. The point of the Craig movies was to be realistic, not over the top. The villain is perfect if you know a single fucking thing about CIA involvement in South America. I'm not genius, and i'm not implying you need an outside knowledge to enjoy a movie, but if a person didn't "get" the villain in QoS, they are a fucking brainlet or have been living under a rock for 50 years.

Legit fell asleep during this in the theater. When I woke up it was the big climax and I had no idea what was happening.

the plot was based on a real world scenario that actually happened. You're exposing yourself as being retarded.

the country would just nationalize all the water if that happened you fucking retards. no private individual can control all the resources of a foreign country without the backing of some kind of military

By 2050, there will be a water shortage in most major countries. USA, the bread basket of the world, will be incredibly at risk. See SanFran already in terms of water usage. This means fresh water needs to come from somewhere to water the massive crop fields. So, where do you get this from?
>Aquifers, cries the retarded user
Yeah and who controls the water of an aquifer that crosses borders? There is already minor skirmishes over aquifer usage around the world. Imagine other nations. So, what does that mean? Either wars over water will happen or places like Canada or Russia will sell water. USA could invade Canada and annex all the great lakes and massive amounts of land and use their water/snow. But that'd have consequences. SO they might buy it. Places like Bolivia having natural water so issues occur. Places invaded for water, aquifers pilfered.

>foreign country without the backing of some kind of military
Did you ignore the bit where they assassinated the leader of Bolivia and installed the general as the new president and when he refused to pay the increased amount of water that he controlled, he threatened to have him replaced and find a more accepting president. He then signs. Since he was a general AND the president of Bolivia, that was the military backing. Did you even watch the film?

Not even all water. It was like 1/3 of water.

your mom will still be in supply though

>It lets you charge whatever you want for it since people literally can't live without water.

And how much do you think poor penniless shitskins that dont even have paved roads are able to pay? Let me put it this way, Bolivia makes Mexico look first world. Still think it's such a great idea?

Feels bad man.

This

What was the real world scenario?

How is his plot to control a poor shithole realistic? What's the benefit of controlling a poor shithole? "Oh no they're trying to take over Malawi!" Who gives fuck?

>I'm not a genius

You got that right

You didn't miss much

>how much do you think poor penniless shitskins that dont even have paved roads are able to pay?
Why would they pay at all? They could just take it, and either the government would show up with the military to kill civilians taking water, or spectre would have to sit there and kill civilians taking water.

I'm with you. It's a real life villain plot. Controlling water means controlling people.

And?

They should have done it somewhere like California where it actually mattered, who gives a fuck about Bolivia

Lmao based retard.

>And?
It's an utterly absurd premise. It would have made more sense if they'd planned to poison the water to kill everybody using it, then cleanse the source and pipe it off to a neighboring drought-stricken country for sale.

Only way someone could be this retarded about being so oblivious to many people informing them about history, dumb ass real life plots, and it relation to QoS, is if they were born in the 2000’s.

What history? When did this happen?

Read a book called "Confessions of an Economic Hitman"

Read a book, and pay attention in school you double nigger.

Staging a coup to artificially raise the price of a product that the buyers could barely afford to begin with in order to make tons of money is the least economically sound economic plot device I could conceive.

Have you never read Dune?

During the Cold War

Not familiar with amerilard history. What event are you babbling about?

You don't see the difference between using national debt as political leverage vs a criminal get-rich masterplan involving selling water to starving villagers?

They don't have to limit themselves to selling to dirt farmers.

No, one is a tool to gain political influence with the debtor state (at little effective cost to the creditor state) while the other is a harebrained scheme to get money. If spectre wanted political influence they could have stopped at installing a new government, which was apparently just an easily-achieved stepping stone to their actual goal of gaining control of the water in order to rake in those sweet Bolivian Pesos.

What's everyone's favorite Bond movie title? Do you prefer the sillier titles or the cool ones? Personally I find "No Time To Die" sounds way too generic.

I love how simple yet cool Skyfall sounds while being thematically relevant.

I also like The World Is Not Enough. It just sounds like a cool fucking thing to say to me.

No Time To Die sounds way too reminiscent of Die Another Die.

It's funny because I remember they had some hydrologists analyze that movie and in turns out the villain's evil plan would've actually charged LESS than what Bolivians were already paying for their water.

Do these writers even do any fucking research?

Look up Libya and what the U.S. did

That could work though, if lowering the price allows them to move significantly more product they could make a lot more money.

You Only Live Twice has always been my favorite Bond title.

That doesn't make sense.

What the fuck is a quantum of solace?

Its explained even more in the next movies you tard

I hope they're going to use Risico as a title someday.

the ball.....the thunderball in which illuminates the world from oppression

Skyfall and casino royal.
Ive seen most every bond film and those really fucking stood out.
Connery was great but dont hit me hard enough. I know they're older, and it wouldve been different had i seen them in their prime, but Daniel Craig being such a contrast from Brosnan is great.
I didnt like Brosnan and all the gadget shit is so fucking cringe I want to die
Brosnan did look good tho

It's a measurement of how much empathy a person has.

World is not enough i liked more than goldeneye, but that was most likely from the video games influence.
Goldeneye with that opening song tho. How the fuck do you ever beat that?

Dear Satan, please stop opining now and find and watch the excellent move Tambien La Lluvia (Even The Rain), which is about how this is literally happening.

I fully expected No Time To Die to be named Risico, as they seem to favor one-word titles for the latest Craig movies.

This but Casino Royale is legitimately good. Feels purely contrarian to say otherwise at this point.

The state of Bolivia encompasses thousands of square kilometres of virgin Amazon rainforest. A completely morally bankrupt, exploitative organisation which essentially controls the country could wring every possible natural resource from one of the richest ecosystems in the world

Ffs this is already fucking happening, it's staggering that one of the few Bond villain plots based in reality is the one which is getting picked on here

Hey Doctor, no time to die another day, because tomorrow never dies and you only live twice, you octopussy.

This happened for real in Bolivia. Google Cochabamba water war.

Hey Dr, no, the world is not enough. You only live twice on her majesteys secret service. For your eyes only a view to kill

Yeah and the Bolivians got it changed back after some protests. Hell of a master plan for an international villain society.

You forgot the part the villain installed a dictatorship in the country?

My only problem with Casino Royale is that they were playing fucking Texas Hold 'Em.

the bolivians are such miserable fucks, they claim your own land, then they say they´re the owners of that land and that you´ve stolen from them, fuck them, fuck bolovia, fuck evo morales, fuck native americans

it doesn´t help either that since they got their independence from spain, the government was always run by buffoon

see en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mariano_Melgarejo

>Why would someone want to control all the water in some third world shithole like Bolivia?
New age geo-politics, we see how private enterprise can subjugate an entire nation via resource exploitation, in stark contrast to the cold war era when governments were the top dogs and string pullers.

>Even if you did, how would that make you rich?
It's about power, not getting rich.

She was super tan from being in the desert every day, I suppose.

their second choice was a shitty Lana Del Rey song

Not the same movie ya fuckin shit
Or was it? Idr
Lanas song so much fucking better tho

nice, very brooding.. coulda worked..

They should use that song if they ever make a 24 movie where Jack Bauer deletes Russia.

Owning a country can have massive advantages

Just as one example, you can make tens of billions by taking a cut by allowing money laundering to take place. And then give yourself legal immunity.

Casino Royale is absolute shit with a 10/10 opening theme. Bond gets his balls whipped with a rope. WTF.

>absolute shit
I dont wanna take this bait but it hurts

Live and Let Die.

The movie should have been good.

1. Great Bond gals
2. Nice Gritty plot
3. Some Kino ideas (later on done to perfection in Mission Impossible movie (Opera house) and some other movies.

The big issue is that they didn't have a script for shooting, so they made it up on the way as the actors had to make there own lines and the director had to try to keep them on some sort of plot (even if the film was being shot out of order) so it ended up as a mess.

depends on lighting and how much sun she had.

Behind the sceens issues does not necesserily make a piece of work bad. If just becomes a meme where dicklets like to automatically assume something is bad to make themselves feel superior by calling it ahead of time. Or they are sheeple who follow the word of some faggot "insider" who is doimg exactly that.

It doesn't Necessarily make it bad, but QoS was not a good movie, and much of its failures can be explained by the lack of a script due to writers strike.

Congratulations on learning what tanning is.

Heavily considering investing in a mail order bride service at this point since I'm done dealing with Western women games.

Where did you meet your Ukrainian wife? They are absurdly hot and from what I've experienced talking to people on other forums about them, they are decently loyal as long as you aren't a total scumbag.

I remember spending endless nights playing the QoS multiplayer about ten years ago. Good times.

>PROXIMITY PLANTED

I had a business trip in Kiev, Spent a week getting to know her, (she worked in a restaurant), and we hit it off and she was really nice.

I then had to go to moscow for a week, I gave her a necklace, and I then explained my family situation (it complicated) and told her I was coming back to Kiev for a night on my return. I would understand if she didn't want to come to US with the issues, but if she did, I had her name in the hotel I was staying at so she could check herself in.

Arrive at the hotel, she hadn't checked in, I was like "damn, it was a fun week but I understand" and went to bed. Woke up, and she was waiting in the lobby, as she drove all night from Lviv to meet me, with her bags packed. I took her home, can called my lawyer while in London to get the paperwork started.

We just had our 2nd kid.

I'm gonna file a copyright for that story and turn it into a romcom.

This is literally happening all around the world. All they have to do in third world shitholes is install politicians in their corner or bribe the right people.

Kek. Don't forget the awkward attempts for me to speak Ukrainian, and her English.

Thank you.

This movie was written during the writers strike. So in another words, no.

its by far his worst. also its the shortest james bond movie since the writers strike happened while they were making it, which also explains why the plot sucks

The actual answer is they got fucked by the Writers Guild strike of 07/08. All they had was a bare bones script before the strike started, and then they couldn't hire any writers to flesh it out.

The studio told them to go forward anyway, so Craig and the director had to finish writing the script, and they both suck at writing.

Curious,

If they hired a member of the writers guild as a actor, could they had the actor write?

or would that violate union rules?

more like quantum of Im bored as shit

You're a chill dude. Good luck.

How long have you been married?
Can you elaborate on the family issues that made you think she wouldn't accept?
How hot is she?

I am happy for you user. She sounds loyal as hell just from your story.

I like every eastern euro girl Ive ever met

Cute and wholesomepilled.

How old were you both when you met?
Was the language barrier a problem?

>How long have you been married?
Just over a year. We have twins.

>Can you elaborate on the family issues that made you think she wouldn't accept?
I prefer not to derail the thread. I derailed enough Webm threads in the past few years on it not to derail this one.

>How hot is she?
Not olga kurylenko hot. I find her very attractive. I guess if I would have to describe her without a photo is that she built like Milla Jovovich (Tall thin but fit) but with a less oval face and more of a Roman nose. Also could say she looks like Katerina Shpitsa with a roman nose. Very slavic cute face.

She was 22, I was 38.

Language was a bit of a problem, not that she didn't understand English, but she didn't understand idioms and slang and so on. That and she sometimes had a hard time with words so it was a lot of pausing for words.

Sounds like you lucked out user and I respect you not wanting to derail the thread further.

I work for the airlines and want to travel more. I'm honestly looking into Kiev dating services for women who want to meet Western men for serious relationships. How did her parents take her leaving?

>third largest market in America
I know without checking US, canada, mexcio and brazil are bigger, if not others.
I think thier game was very long term global dominance of water, which Bolivia was just a part.
You dont corner the market in a few years, but a several decades. if you get in early, as the population grows faster than the supply your leverage over people grows

Her parents had passed on, her grandmother was happy that I was a religious man.

I avoid the dating services, and just spent time the old fashioned way. Many women there just want to talk to you since they want to practice English.

>22

Literally primetime breeding stock for a woman. I wish you many kids and a happy life user. Is she fulltime housewife or working in the States too?

I hope you're making an effort to learn Ukrainian if she's making an effort to learn English. Make sure your kids are bilingual, and start em early.

Farmers wife, which is both housewife and farm work. I am not great at Ukrainian (and cannot read it due to not using the same alphabet) but enough that we can converse.

A women at church is also Ukrainian, so they are two peas in a pod.

Cyrillic is pretty easy to learn. I take it you go to an Orthodox or Catholic church?

>I take it you go to an Orthodox or Catholic church?
No, I am a member of a small religious group. But that starts getting into the complicated stuff.

I am also not a Scientologist, moonie, or children of god.

>Many women there just want to talk to you since they want to practice English

Sorry to hear about her parents, but I guess that makes it easier to leave. Did you meet her babushka too? Is it easy to support her and your kids with just you working?

I know we're derailing the thread but it's dying anyway and I'm too interested in a qt Eastern European waifu to care.

did you groom her for anal and for enjoying degrantion? I know you did

It's based on a real thing that's STILL happening for that matter. Wall Street megabanks, W. Bush, and a handful of other global oligarchs have already bought up much of the land above the world's freshwater aquifers.

>Did you meet her babushka too? Is it easy to support her and your kids with just you working?
I did. She was surprisingly okay with it since I am religious, and even though I am not Eastern Orthodox, she knew I had standards and I kept myself to them.

Since I am a farmer it much easier to support a family and kids since it all part of the family.

We actually do send on Easter and Christmas a large present to the grandmother (cash gift) which is much appreciated by the grandmother.

Good watch and good shoes. Doesn't have to be expensive, but wear a watch (can be a Seiko or a Fossil watch) but have it with a metal band, be a man, and have her talk about herself (most eastern european women have real jobs, they are not annoying feminists, but in my case showing genuine intrest that she was going to school and the subject is what she said that made her change her first view of me (that I was a fat american)
