Absolute zero idea


The new James Bond film Quantum of Solace opens in cinemas later this year.

As with all recent Bond films there are dozens of brand and product tie-ins.

The weirdest one, in my eyes anyway, is Coke Zero.

Actually Coke Zero isn't the problem. It's their Bond related idea.

Some clever clogs has decided to rebrand Coke Zero as Coke Zero Zero Seven.

Have these people never seen a Bond film?

It's double O seven. Not zero zero seven.

End of story.

Quantum Solace belongs on a list of "Discarded Rush album names."

Excellent thought Mr Jetpacks.

Like many of those long dicarded seventies riff monsters, Rush has appeared in my sons iTunes courtesy of Guitar Hero.

Hey Stan - how do I get in touch with you? Am working on something that I would prefer to talk to you about offline - my email address is brad@howarth.name. Sorry to leave this in a comment box but I couldn't see any other way to track you down. Cheers, Brad Howarth.

Actually the "double O seven" was adopted as "zero zero seven" in romanian :P so... it makes sense to me :))
but now really... Coca-Cola Zero and James Bond... not a perfect fit in the first place.
