  I think the article writer may have over-hyped Craig's input. It sounded like he gave his opinion based on a some options that were presented. I'm pretty confident that 'Quantum of Solace' was on the short list since the evil organization is called 'Quantum' in the script. No one was entirely convinced that it was strong title for an action film though, so other titles were considered. I think Craig was right to vote for an actual Fleming title, given that the timbre of his films are meant to invoke a more literal interpretation of the character. Like it or not, though, the title is not quite hitting the target and Craig seems to admit that. As Bond and Fleming fans, we accept it, but the title doesn't resonate to the same degree with casual film-goers.
