That the film is intentionally patterned after the style is unquestionable, and John has already provided the definitive argument: they brought in the Bourne editor for crying out loud.
Good grief, some people will argue anything just for the sake of arguing.
And it looks like this Bond has just beaten Bourne Ultimatum's opening weekend by $1 M. Somewhere Eddie weeps.

Can't say I'm terribly sorry I'm not following the fanboy reaction on this one.

View profile »Hey Jason, glad to see you mention Stuart Baird (editor of "Casino Royale"). This guy has been one of the best film editors for many years. And he did a decent directing job on both "U.S. Marshals" and "Executive Decision". Similar to Bond editor-turned-director John Glen, who either edited or directed several of my favorite Bond films.
I haven't yet seen QofS, so don't have an opinion. Your mention of the plot revolving around water reminds of it's clever plot use in "Chinatown", where a murder is connected to an even more sinister plot of controlling California's water supply in the northern part of the state, as the expense of those in the lower half of the state. It's one of my favorite thrillers, and features a great musical score by the legendary Jerry Goldsmith.
