Casino Royale

[Guest diamondback688]

i just got back from seeing the newest james bond flick, and i have to say, it was IMHO one of the best ones out there...i strongly recommend it...

Man, I drove 2 hrs today to the big city just to see this movie. Got to the theater and there was a screw up with the shipping company. No movie!!! I'm so pissed.

Hopefully it will still be in theaters when I head back down there in a couple of weeks.

I'm stumped. Why did they name a James Bond flick after a local welfare apartment ghetto?

I'm not really a big fan of James Bond. But from what I have heard about it, those people that didn't like Daniel Craig for Bond were wrong. And according to IMDb, the next Bond movie will be out in 2008.

[Guest diamondback688]

are you being sarcastic, Bobby?? if not, the reason they named the movie Casino Royale is because they were making the first James Bond book, Written by Ian Fleming, into a movie...the book came out in 1953 if i remember correctly...

Actually, I am quite serious. The county seat has an apartment complex which is subsidized housing; It's shabby and laden with crime. And it's called "The Casino Royale Apartments".

I am going to see the movie tonight. I know it's a little late, but our small town only has one theatre until they build a new one. I am a huge fan of all the James Bond movies! I recently had to buy a D.V.D. BOX set of 5 movies, but there are four sets so far. I've asked for a couple sets for Christmas and I'm pretty sure I'll get a set or two because I've been an angel all year! Anyway I hope everyone gets what they want for Christmas! I also asked for a scooter.

I'm going to see it on Saturday because it is my brothers birthday, and thats what he wanted to do.

I saw the movie a few weeks ago, I loved it. I was skeptical about it when I 1st heard about it, I was sooooooo wrong. It's awesome, I can't wait for the next one.

I don't know about everyone else, but I prefer my spy movies exactly the way that 'Casino Royale' turned out. I am a big fan of Bond movies, but I was getting tired of all the gagets and crap that took over from the story line.

I prefer my spys to use wit and muscle to defeat the baddies instead of some weird laser firing nuclear powered sattelite from orbit.

Yes, I saw that...great movie. I don't about Daniel Craig as Bond Though. Great actor but I don't know about him for this role. I can't really think of anyone who could do better so I should shut up I guess.

[Guest diamondback688]

i think Colin Farrel (sp?) would do a good job...

[drynot]

I like Craig as Bond. He fits the role well. I would love to see Sean Connery reprise the role as an older, wiser Bond but I don't think that would fly in theaters.

Maybe Ewan MacGregor in the future after Danny has had his run....

So what's the verdict then Sunshine?

There was a lot of action in it. And I think I would probably have enjoyed it more if I actually understood poker, since a lot of the film is about poker. All in all, it is a film that I wouldn't have normally gone to see, and I won't be making any special effort to see again. But I don't think it was the worst thing my brother could have made us all see.
