* TroubledProduction: The film was stalled in pre-production by the [[http://www.swiftfilm.com/daniel-craig-says-writers-strike-ruined-quantum-of-solace/ 2007 Writers' Strike]]. Based on various accounts, screenwriter Paul Haggis was frantically finishing a first draft hours before the strike deadline and/or Creator/DanielCraig and director Creator/MarcForster [[WritingByTheSeatOfYourPants rewrote script pages themselves during production]]. In addition, the fragmented nature of the production (due to the strike) led to a rushed and nearly incoherent plot.

My best guess is that that title was for French (e.g. Quebec) Canada, as I checked on Amazon.ca and I see many disc media with the full Quantum of Solace title there.

* OnSetInjury: Creator/DanielCraig suffered an injury to his face, which required four stitches, another to his shoulder, which required six surgical screws to be inserted in an operation, and his arm in a sling, and then his hand was injured when one of his finger tips was sliced off. He laughed these off, noting they did not delay filming, and joked his finger wound would enable him to have a criminal career (though it had grown back when he made this comment). He also had minor plastic surgery on his face.

--->'''Arterton:''' I still get criticism for accepting ''Quantum of Solace'', but I was 21, [[IWasYoungAndNeededTheMoney I had a student loan]], and you know, it was a Bond film. But as I got older I realised there was so much wrong with Bond women. Strawberry should have just said no [to having sex with Bond], really, and worn flat shoes.
