Movie - Casino Royale

[Supreme Cmdr]

Well, its out this weekend and I'm there day one.

However, the fans and anti-Christ activists are up in arms about Daniel Craig.

Bond is back for London world premiere

Best line of the article:

'When asked if he prefers his martini shaken or stirred, he replies, "Do I look like I give a damn?"'

I can't wait to see it!!

I can't even BEGIN to explain this movie. All I can say is that throw everything you knew about Bond, out the window and go see it.

It is a completely different take on Bond. More humanized, brutal etc.

This is not your mom's Bond, but damn he's good. Looking forward to the next one in 2008.

10/10

I agree, totally more real world and gritty. No one hit punches or knocket chops. Or missiles from cars.

excellent, Craig is great as Bond, makes Bond his own

I agree, definitely one of the best Bond movies in years. Craig is Connery on steroids minus the gadgets, but you won't miss them.

Bond is back!

One thing that did bother me was the opening credit theme song, that one plain sucked, what were they thinking? But then we got a great movie instead, so I guess that's the price to pay.

I hated Goldeneye so much I never bothered to see any of the other Brosnan movies (which I hear got worse with each outing). I was always a huge fan of classic Bond, though - and I can say with a completely clear conscience that Casino Royale is the best Bond movie since Diamonds Are Forever (the last canonical Connery Bond movie). This is much more down to earth and believable than any of that other crap we've been force fed over the last decade.

I'm always amazed when people _praise_ "Goldeneye" and I truely don't understand what people saw in that movie. Some even claim it was the best of the Brosnan Bond films, confirming what you said. I've seen them all and while they certainly didn't improve over time, I'm not sure the actor is to blame. I always thought of Brosnan as an obvious Bond, due to his similar role in the "Remington Steele" series.

Anyway, Bond is back and he's blond.
