Today (November, 16th) is film premiere of Casino Royale here. Can't wait see it... Anyone here Bond's movies fan? And what do you think about that last one?

EDIT - about 7hts later...:
Just got back from cinema and I would like to share with some fresh notes.
- It's not Bond movie at all (just main actor is called Bond)
- everything is true (Craig is good actor, no gadgets at all, whole movie is raw, etc.)
- be prepare for harder action and more "static" parts of the film (I mean, film is not balanced like other Bond's movies)
- I just don't believe many women should flirt with that man...

that's all for now...

EDIT II - after another 12hrs...:
Hmmm... maybe I got a point of makers... It's not like common bond movie because he just is not like Bond yet! That character is involving just now and 2nd Bond with Craig will look more like "real" bond movie than Casino Royale looks.

Just a few comments smile.gif

1. True, there is another one Casino Royale (IMDB), but this film is more parody of bond movies, not "normal" bond movie so Casino Royale (2006) is not remake... It's absolutely different movie, just with same title.

2. Never say never again is different story. It's not parody of Bond at all! It's "serious" movie (IMDB), so I couldn't compare it with Casino Royale (1967) movie case.

3. I don't care about age of Craig (remenber A View to a Kill, Moore was 58 old there!), I care about other things kindasad.gif

4. Since Bond 22 (IMDB) will not be remake (I read somewhere it should be remake of Goldfinger) but "continuing on from the events of Casino Royale" movie, I'm looking forward to see it. Cuz I believe more and more in my "second edit feeling" of my first post:

The non-EON version of Casino Royale maybe a parody but it is the Casino Royale story which the production company bought off of Ian Flemming for a couple hundred dollars. There is also a TV version in 54' I think which was also non-EON. The reason its thrown into the mix with Never Say Never Again is because they are both Non-EON nationwide film releases.

The Bond 22 film isnt confirmed to be a sequel just rumors.

IMO this film was pretty good. Action packed, kept you on the edge of your seat. It did feel less "Bond-ish" if you know what I'm saying. IE: no gadgets, no Q, no shaken, not stirred (I think he ordered a long island iced tea once?). Slightly confusing when realizing he's not on an official mission. The original Aston Martin is a nice touch, the DBS is simply insane.

All in all I was satisfied leaving the theater. I wasnt thinking this man doesnt fit Bond I think he did a good job. Not like George Lazenby or Timothy Dalton.

Edit: The guy he's chasing in the beginning of the film on the crane and all around was absolutely crazy. The athleticism of that guy was remarkable.
