I checked out some Quantum Of Solace videos on YouTube, and I came over this clip.

It would have been cool if they kept it. But on the second thought, we have seen Bond driving on two wheels many times before.

Nah; too derivative of the old, cliched Bond, although Roger Ebert might have liked it. :(

You sure it isn't in the film, and is lost among all the shaky cam and super-quick editing?


Just kidding...sort of.

We know there's a few things missing: production stills also showed the Aston colliding with the granite wall side-on in the quarry, and there was supposed to be an explosion that sent a lorry into the waters of the late to round out the chase.

It's likely that a whole lot of stuff was filmed, and then the footage that they felt was best was included in the chase: the Aston losing the door, the first Alfa having the head-on, the four-wheel driving rolling end over end across the road in front of the chase, and the second Alfa doing the pirouette over the edge of the roadway. Which, when you think about it, is quite a bit for a four-minute sequence.

I would have liked it too.
