Daniel Craig insists he least wanted a grisly title for the new Bond movie with "death" in it. He reportedly rejected several potential names during a brainstorming session with producers, before it was decided that they use a title of a short story by Bond creator Ian Fleming. Thus was born the name 'Quantum of Solace'.
Critics and Bond fans, however, were not much impressed. But Daniel holds his ground. "I was involved in making the decision. Names were coming out, some ludicrous stuff was going back and forth -- I can't remember exactly, but you know the sort of thing: 'The Blood On Your Face'. I knew I didn't want 'death', 'die', 'bleed' or any of those things in the title."
He adds, "As soon as it came out, people were saying, 'Ooh, it sounds like Harry Potter'. No, it's Quantum of Solace. I was saying, 'It's a Bond title!' The name of a Bond film is not about anything. Live And Let Die? Octopussy? What do they mean? They means very little."
