Some of them, yes. They weren't in the film of Casino Royale because they weren't in the novel. I suspect the same is true of Quantum of Solace.

At the moment the producers are adapting some of Fleming's earliest Bond material, so it's hardly surprising that the series appears to be 'ditching' some of the icons we have come to associate with it. But they are not messing about with the formula, far from it. They're simply taking it back to basics. I think Bond is all the better for it.
