in my top 3 of movies of the year so far maybe

Does the plot have much to do with the previous 2 movies? Was thinking about watching them before I go see Skyfall, but I might not have time.

no not at all its almost a reboot of sorts just sticking with Daniel Craig. it sort of exists on its own you just need to know a basic understanding of MI6 and that he has been 007 for a while and his boss is still M (judy dench)

honestly most of the bond movies are fun but not that good they are sort of campy the daniel craig ones have been better in tone but i didnt like the last movie all that much i mean it was ok it was very linked at the first to casino royale and i only saw that once so it was a bit hard to follow at the first.

this movie is almost in its own world and is a good movie in general not just a good bond movie

I have yet to see this one yet, probably next week.
They said early on they were going to do a different plot. The plan was if this one did well or DG stayed they would go back to Quantum in the next film and explore that plot more. Glad to hear this one was up to par, and with the money issues out of the way we are going to get 2 more Bond movies quickly now.
