Bond, James Bond

Casino Royale is the best bond movie since the sean connery era. Period.

That movie fucking blew me away with bond awesomeness. People in my theater actually started applauding it at the end. And I cried inside when that Aston Martin got destroyed, shit.

Daniel Craig is the man. I cannot wait for another one.

    I really want to agree with this statement. history is trying to hold me back, but honestly. It is the best.

    It is the James bond version of Batman Begins. A new start, and a return to the originals. I want to be him.

    I am so psyched, I was hoping it would succeed. I've loved most of the Bond movies from all the previous Bonds (including Dalton and Lazonby), but that last Brosnan flick was rather limp.

    Amen. This may be the first movie Ive seen in years that I'm willing to see twice in the theaters. This Bond is the one that Ian Flemming always envisioned. Also, character development in a Bond movie is fucking awesome.

    Fuck, this was an awesome movie.

    Seriously, Bond was the most badass I've ever seen him. He was a spy the way I'm a spy when I play Splinter Cell.

    Not to derail, but when I saw The Departed this guy behind me said "Jack's got some boobs now, eh?" in an extremely dramatic scene with Jack Nicholson near the end of the movie. How can people be so fucking inconsiderate and stupid and loud at the same time?

    I have to say, whilst the first half of this film is mostly excellent, I thought the second half was very predictable and kinda sucky. Not to mention return of the dodgy special fx (house in venice)

    Daniel Craig is, and will be an excellent bond, I have no doubt. They just need to give him a script that isn't a cut up action movie with some terrible one liners and hacked on plot. (The script is buy the same people that did TWINE and DAD, so you should be expecting some truly terrible lines).

    In fact it's the same writers that always seem to want to introduce some sort of silly signature villain, e.g. The guy with diamonds in his face, or robert "bullet in his brain so he can't feel any pain although in realities has no effect whatsoever in the film" carlyle. Same thing here with Le Chiffre and his weeping blood.

    I did because I read the god damn book. Closest James Bond movie to it's respective book ever! Except they changed the card game from baccarat to poker because seriously, they explained what was going on in the book and I still have no idea how it's played.

    Its already been mentioned that certain people avoid trailers for that reason.

    Ok, in a theather of around 400 people, im pretty sure me and my friend were the ONLY people to laugh at this part:

    [spoiler:625b6ce1bc]There is a really short scene in the middle of the poker game when bleeding-eye-man touches his finger to his temple/eye area (telegraphing his bluff) then he realizes he is doing it and stops, accepting that he had basically just told Bond he was bluffing, foldds his cards[/spoiler:625b6ce1bc]

    BTW: I HATE most james bond movies (ive really only seen the newers onces) and this one kicked ass. That intro was hellacious and didnt have a campy-ass song either.
