I imagine they'll be back in the next outing. My thought is that the 3 films Craig is to do (or at least the first 2) will slowly unfold the character, as well as his supporting cast, including Q and MP.

'Wacky' should never be allowed to describe anything put in Craig's way. Cleese's Q... No. I think the old Desmond Q of the 60's would work. Craig could play off that and still keep the edge he established in CR.

I agree. :)

Cleese was perfect casting as Q--it's just that the part was too broadly written. And Cleese is far more at home with sarcastic, witty verbal humor than the clowning he was put through in TWINE, so I don't see any reason why he shouldn't come back, as long as the part better fits his talents.
