"So there is a writer strike. How do we top the previous movie's storytelling?" "I will be personally writing it. I've decided." "What are your credentials?" "I'm good at marketing." "Fair enough."
Quantum really only works if you watch it right after Casino Royale, it's the only Bond film that you need to watch the previous one to fully understand what's happening, as the other ones are more or less standalone with passing references here and there.
You can't watch Spectre too far after them either, since they don't really reintroduce Mr. White too clearly. Just kinda "Hey, it's Mr. White." "Oh, yeah."

Well letting companies compete with each other to see who can supply the most water for the cheapest price is actually the best way to make water more easily available for everyone in the long run. If you are suggesting that the government should pay for everyone's water, then that stifle innovation which could be disastrous for the future.
@Jack der Hauptsturmführer Every advanced country in the world has banned toxic food and water. And if lead was showing up in water, then people will stop buying from that company and switch to another. The free market is the best way to expand markets and foster innovation. If the government controlled the water supply, then there would be no financial incentive to innovate water distribution techniques. As soon as the government takes control of something, innovation slows to a crawl. Why do you think we still have to wait in line for 2 hours at the DMV just to replace a drivers license? Why do you think employee parking is often right next to government buildings but citizen parking is far away? If it was a private company, the customer parking would very close to the building, and you would be able to get your drivers license online with very little wait.
Let's get a pitch meeting for Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron! That way you can write a whole song about getting off of your back! Plus watching it with subtitles makes the movie so much better
I would like to ask why he was sweeping the air. That almost has to be completely intentional either by director or by the guy just wanting to do something funny
I was about to suggest he's another foreign agent and the broom has concealed scanning technology, or something. That doesn't even work, though. Not much of a cover if he can't or won't let his fake broom touch the ground.
Well FINALLY Will Ferrells character from "The Other Guys" who developed the app that did that spy tech (face from back of head) scores another one for Hollywood Writers.
My personal favorite Pitch Meeting you've done. It flowed really well and the whole little Frenchmen bit was hilarious. You really emphasized big old James Bond going against a small Frenchman. 🤣
My brother and I watched this in the theater when we where young and literally had no memory of what happened in it for years until we rewatched it recently for reasons I no longer recall.
Quantum of solace by itself is a clunky and a little awkward but as a sequel to Casino Royale it works great That’s really the way you have to watch it as because it’s essentially a continuation of Casino Royale’s third act
0.5 seconds into the video and I have the biggest smile i can muster up on my face, why? Super easy, barely an inconvenience, Ryan George makes my day with every new pitch meeting and videos he puts up.
For a Bond movie, this plot is weirdly parallel to Dune. I also appreciate the writers' dedication to accurately reporting the real placename of their very cinematic setting (the Bolivian desert) when it would have made far more sense to pretend it was Peru, which is several times more important than Bolivia and actually has a vulnerable water supply.
Ryan George can run to screen rant and say "so you have the most watched CW series for me" yes sir i do his name is barry allen and he is the fastest man alive the the producer will b like is that important and he will say well you dont after season 1 but he just keeps saying it throughout multiple seasons so on and so forth
Ryan: Kinda wish we'd get to see it Ryan: Yeah but we're not gonna Ryan: Why? Ryan: Cuz I don't know what's gonna happen in the sequel yet Ryan: *Most sincere "Oh Very Smart" of the entire series*
I was curious if the writer's strike would get mentioned in this one. I expected/hoped the writer character would just disappear/be replaced by someone else playing a director character who stumbled through explaining the plot but went into great detail about visually artistic choices. Would've been more true to the actual production
"That's not how _things_ work". Well, the bad guys have air-broom technology, so cameras which can capture a face from the other side of a head aren't that much of a leap.
Exec: All these writers on strike, it's gonna be hard to write a new James Bond film. Pitch guy: Actually it's gonna be super easy, barely an inconvenience. Exec: Oh really? Pitch guy: Yeah, hes gonna chase some guys, then meet a girl, then there's gonna be a bad guy and Bond's gonna kill him, and then the movies gonna be over. Exec: That sounds EXACTLY like a Bond film
Halfway through the pitch he should’ve said “sorry, I’m now on strike, you’ll have to write the rest of the movie yourself.” Which is more or less what happened.
I was 10 when I saw Die Another Day, 14 when I saw Casino Royale, and 16 when I saw Quantum of Solace. Even though I was a child, and Die Another Day was not a great James Bond film, I can remember more about that movie than Quantum of Solace. I saw it in theaters but this whole video I couldn't remember a single plot point to the whole film, it's just so hilariously unrememberable. I'm glad Skyfall was good enough to keep Daniel Craig in the James Bond role.
I heard due to the screenwriters strike Daniel Craig and Director Marc Forster made contributions to the writing. Quantum of Solace is not my favourite Bond film but it had a lot of gritty action and performances.
Part of this was filmed in Panama and it was so hyped up. Back then we had blockbuster still and you could not find a single copy of Casino Royale to rent. Every day the newspaper would show a pic of Daniel Craig like on a beach or something. I feel like I got swept up by the hype because I remember liking the movie at the time.
Bond: So you work for S.P.E.C.T.R.E.? Mr. White: I can't legally say yes, so let's just say I work for C.H.A.O.S. Bond: Guess that means I'll be teaming up with Maxwell Smart then.
“Would you believe we got Sean Connery back for this movie?” “I find that very hard to believe.” “Well, would you believe Don Adams, from Mel Brooks’ Get Smart?” “Not really, no.” “How about Sheriff Hopper, with a silly mustache?”
Not only was the Bolivia water story lame, but it was also lazy. This was actually done for real. In the late 1990s the World Bank forced Bolivia to privatize their water supply meaning a lot of the country's poor had no water. It eventually ended with a rebellion by the population.
I still don’t know what happened in this movie after watching it and then watching someone explain it and then watching the sequel to it. No idea. Not one clue.
I can't get enough of these. I have laughed out loud (a rarity) at least twice in every episode and have enjoyed every single one. I'm almost afraid to watch ones that are about movies I like despite their plot holes, because I know that once I've seen a pitch meeting, I won't be able to watch the movie seriously again.
You know, hoarding an entire country’s water supply is actually a pretty evil plan. A human being can survive up to a week without eating but not without water and the people of that country were already having a water crisis. A lot of people were for sure gonna die of thirst because of that dude’s plan and the entire place may have been driven into extreme poverty. That’s no joke.
But like, Bolivians are already established as being raked over the coals and treated like crap. So its not like they are going from a great life to a crappy one. Its just an even worse life. Which is low stakes, as said in this episode. In film terms, obviously, IRL thats messed up
I think it would be of higher stakes if it was being done in a developed country. In middle or low income countries, piped water isn't the only source of water. We get water from lakes, streams, rain, puddles etc. So though it may seem such an evil plan to an English scriptwriter, the stakes just aren't that high imv.
Which movie should Ryan George do a Pitch Meeting of next? Let us know
Blade pitch meeting please
(Bill & Ted’s excellent adventure) Pitch Meeting please
Free Guy
Jaws
It would be funny to see how he makes pitch meetings about movies based in real life events, like The wolf of Wall Street or the pursuit of happiness.

I’d like to go back to the guy sweeping air. He’s up to something or just an air bender
Auditioning for the quiet version of Stomp
I would like to ask why he was sweeping the air. That almost has to be completely intentional either by director or by the guy just wanting to do something funny
@@stelonous Probably something to do with ruining the sound recording
it would make total sense if it was a phony construction site
I was about to suggest he's another foreign agent and the broom has concealed scanning technology, or something. That doesn't even work, though. Not much of a cover if he can't or won't let his fake broom touch the ground.
I didn't realize how silly the plot to this movie was until Ryan and Ryan broke it down for me
Very very unfair prices!
Ryan Writerman (American) and Ryan Producerguy (Dutch-Canadian)
breaking down things for people is tight!
Silly? That's what oligarchs are doing RIGHT THIS MOMENT.
Unless you're actually a part off their PR team. ..
@@randomhuman97 the movie mank has some very interesting commentary.
Well FINALLY Will Ferrells character from "The Other Guys" who developed the app that did that spy tech (face from back of head) scores another one for Hollywood Writers.
Litteraly what popped into my head when he mentioned the app lol.
Maybe they were setting up a Bond Other Guys crossover event
FaceBack is making rounds!
I'd never considered that the writer of QoS started with a Manon des Sources sequel but walked into the wrong producer's office.
Bravo to you for watching that movie and getting all the way through. It was a confusing mess from start to finish, and you showcased that perfectly.
I own all the Daniel Craig Bond movies and this video is the closest I've ever come to seeing Quantum of Solace.
"So James shoot the guy and then he shoots and then he gets him and then he gets away"
My friend trying to explain a movie to me
I laughed my ass off when i saw the guy sweeping air when i watched the movie...had to rewind like 10 times 😂😂😂
"Has M not met james Bond?"
Perfect!😂😂
My personal favorite Pitch Meeting you've done. It flowed really well and the whole little Frenchmen bit was hilarious. You really emphasized big old James Bond going against a small Frenchman. 🤣
Please do a Pitch Meeting for Moonraker. It was the first Bond movie I ever saw, and was also the stupidest thing I'd ever seen.
The movie is so silly you can't really mock it.
It's self-mocking!
@@brucemarshall3446 I mean... They did do Sharknado...
What do you have against French Bond villains? 😜
Lol. Mine too. I was 7 at the time and I thought it was awesome. When I watch it now I’m like “WTF”
@@brianmcg321 That's because it's a comic book!
I will never stop asking for a Surf ninjas pitch meeting.
My brother and I watched this in the theater when we where young and literally had no memory of what happened in it for years until we rewatched it recently for reasons I no longer recall.
Quantum of solace by itself is a clunky and a little awkward but as a sequel to Casino Royale it works great
That’s really the way you have to watch it as because it’s essentially a continuation of Casino Royale’s third act
0.5 seconds into the video and I have the biggest smile i can muster up on my face, why? Super easy, barely an inconvenience, Ryan George makes my day with every new pitch meeting and videos he puts up.
For a Bond movie, this plot is weirdly parallel to Dune.
I also appreciate the writers' dedication to accurately reporting the real placename of their very cinematic setting (the Bolivian desert) when it would have made far more sense to pretend it was Peru, which is several times more important than Bolivia and actually has a vulnerable water supply.
Wait, Dune was about control of the spice. It gave you god like powers, allowed you to bend space, etc.
@@nosuchthing8 But it was also about water hoarding and about destroying the spice.
@@josephfisher426 yup. Of course.And many other things.
But if it was JUST about water it would never have been such an influential book.
Wow, I never knew that Nestlé was a James Bond villain.
do a CW FLASH pitch meeting in case you didnt know his name is barry allen and he is the fastest man alive...
There's nowhere to run!
Ryan George can run to screen rant and say "so you have the most watched CW series for me" yes sir i do his name is barry allen and he is the fastest man alive the the producer will b like is that important and he will say well you dont after season 1 but he just keeps saying it throughout multiple seasons so on and so forth
the cw flash would be the best pitch meeting ever
Wun Bawwy Wun
Ryan: Kinda wish we'd get to see it
Ryan: Yeah but we're not gonna
Ryan: Why?
Ryan: Cuz I don't know what's gonna happen in the sequel yet
Ryan: *Most sincere "Oh Very Smart" of the entire series*
I was curious if the writer's strike would get mentioned in this one. I expected/hoped the writer character would just disappear/be replaced by someone else playing a director character who stumbled through explaining the plot but went into great detail about visually artistic choices. Would've been more true to the actual production
"That's not how _things_ work". Well, the bad guys have air-broom technology, so cameras which can capture a face from the other side of a head aren't that much of a leap.
“But that would definitely still kill them.”
“But it’s not gonna.”
“Why?”
“Because”
“That works.”
Every Pitch Meeting in a nutshell.
it must have been hard for them to survive that one!
@@artman2oo3 ☝🏽 *Actually..........*
Amazingly, they had like 60 pages of an outline and Craig was tasked with coming up with scenes because he wasn't in the guild.
4:42 “Still though, that’s not how “things” work” lmao
The whole movie was a side quest
Exec: All these writers on strike, it's gonna be hard to write a new James Bond film.
Pitch guy: Actually it's gonna be super easy, barely an inconvenience.
Exec: Oh really?
Pitch guy: Yeah, hes gonna chase some guys, then meet a girl, then there's gonna be a bad guy and Bond's gonna kill him, and then the movies gonna be over.
Exec: That sounds EXACTLY like a Bond film
I don't know why the way Ryan said "Dominic Greeeen" and"tiiiiny Frenchman" is killing me so bad hahaha
Yeah that part got me love the way he Said Tiny french man
Halfway through the pitch he should’ve said “sorry, I’m now on strike, you’ll have to write the rest of the movie yourself.” Which is more or less what happened.
I was 10 when I saw Die Another Day, 14 when I saw Casino Royale, and 16 when I saw Quantum of Solace. Even though I was a child, and Die Another Day was not a great James Bond film, I can remember more about that movie than Quantum of Solace. I saw it in theaters but this whole video I couldn't remember a single plot point to the whole film, it's just so hilariously unrememberable. I'm glad Skyfall was good enough to keep Daniel Craig in the James Bond role.
i think ive seen all the pitch meetings 3-4 times, this content is addictive AF
“That’s not how thiiings work, though…” - so simple yet cracked me up.
Favorite line. 😂
"The fuel cells explode"
"You mentioned those!"
Lost it 🤣🤣🤣
I heard due to the screenwriters strike Daniel Craig and Director Marc Forster made contributions to the writing. Quantum of Solace is not my favourite Bond film but it had a lot of gritty action and performances.
Part of this was filmed in Panama and it was so hyped up. Back then we had blockbuster still and you could not find a single copy of Casino Royale to rent. Every day the newspaper would show a pic of Daniel Craig like on a beach or something. I feel like I got swept up by the hype because I remember liking the movie at the time.
“Wait...you can copy paste a fight scene now?”
“Yeah,Yeah,Yeah!”
“Well ok then”
Okay “so copy paste” had me pause to get through my tears hahaha
4:34 That technology exists! It's called "Faceback," developed in (a movie called) 'The Other Guys' by (the character played by) Will Farrell.
Colin Farrell's brother
Who identifies as an actor, but is really a naughty Irishman 😂 Keep it coming
Bond: So you work for S.P.E.C.T.R.E.?
Mr. White: I can't legally say yes, so let's just say I work for C.H.A.O.S.
Bond: Guess that means I'll be teaming up with Maxwell Smart then.
I asked you not to tell me that.
@@joanbennettnyc Would you believe ... it was spelled KAOS?
@@williamblakehall5566 Yes, well, he was just one letter off. Missed it by 🤏 that much. Ah, make that two letters off.
“Would you believe we got Sean Connery back for this movie?”
“I find that very hard to believe.”
“Well, would you believe Don Adams, from Mel Brooks’ Get Smart?”
“Not really, no.”
“How about Sheriff Hopper, with a silly mustache?”
@@williamblakehall5566 😂🤣 you're right! I totally forgot!
Funny, the confused Producer has the EXACT same points of confusion that I had watching Quantum of Solace.
Literally the add I got when I clicked on this video was a James Bond add.
“You bought an IP without buying the all of the IP so we can use certain words?”
“Buyers remorse for sure.”
“Yeah yeah yeah!”
“Can we use spectre yet? “ “ no we cannot” “then no it’s not spectre “ I’m weak
In the 2005 video game From Russia With Love they had to call them OCTOPUS lol.
Guess this organization was SMERSH lol
Not only was the Bolivia water story lame, but it was also lazy. This was actually done for real. In the late 1990s the World Bank forced Bolivia to privatize their water supply meaning a lot of the country's poor had no water. It eventually ended with a rebellion by the population.
Writer Guy passionately selling Dominic’s plan as exciting 😂 “lots of budgeting they’ll have to do”
Clicked to watch, got a smartwater ad up front. That. Is. Hilarious.
"and then....he's gonna overcharge for it" had me dying 😂😂
It's like the Pharma Bro...but with water 💦
I swear Ryan just keeps getting better and better in these
Might have to watch this movie, I've never heard a villain that perfectly encapsulates the banality of evil.
I still don’t know what happened in this movie after watching it and then watching someone explain it and then watching the sequel to it. No idea. Not one clue.
I can't get enough of these. I have laughed out loud (a rarity) at least twice in every episode and have enjoyed every single one. I'm almost afraid to watch ones that are about movies I like despite their plot holes, because I know that once I've seen a pitch meeting, I won't be able to watch the movie seriously again.
I'd love to see a pitch meeting of Justified by FX!
Awww damn it
I love that show. Also Brooklyn 99.
@@maxfieldjoyner5244 yeah, that's be great!
Screen writer guy and producer guy dug coal together
@@garymant4663 LOL Best comment ever!
I normally don't like frenetic dialogue but this guy kills it.
You know, hoarding an entire country’s water supply is actually a pretty evil plan. A human being can survive up to a week without eating but not without water and the people of that country were already having a water crisis. A lot of people were for sure gonna die of thirst because of that dude’s plan and the entire place may have been driven into extreme poverty.
That’s no joke.
It feels like the most realistic plot bond has had. I quite enjoy this film
Realistic yes, but its not Bond fun.
But like, Bolivians are already established as being raked over the coals and treated like crap. So its not like they are going from a great life to a crappy one. Its just an even worse life. Which is low stakes, as said in this episode. In film terms, obviously, IRL thats messed up
I think it would be of higher stakes if it was being done in a developed country. In middle or low income countries, piped water isn't the only source of water. We get water from lakes, streams, rain, puddles etc. So though it may seem such an evil plan to an English scriptwriter, the stakes just aren't that high imv.
Nestle go brrrr
Am I the only one who can’t hear the name “Camille” without thinking of Eddie Murphy’s impression of Bill Cosby saying “with my wife, Camille”?
6:24 YOU MENTIONED THOSE!
