the person responsible for putting together the trailers for the last couple of james bond films really should knock it off. they've been staggeringly uninspired. the second teaser trailer for die another day is the only one that approaches non-lameness from the current crop. (and the person who decided to butcher the theme for the first teaser trailer should be given a good bonk on the head, too.)

it's very odd that the james bond books are (at least mostly) out of print. there's another author writing more books in the series, though.
