Rensvert Posted November 17, 2006 Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 So the new Bond movie comes out today "Casino Royal" and I plan on going to see it but I was just wondering what peoples thoughts were about this movie? I mean I really like Bond however I dont know how well a Blonde Bond is going to look I mean I really like the trailer for it and hope this movie is a lot like last years Batman Begins but I just am not so sure about it.

Pali Posted November 17, 2006 Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 Batman Begins is better than Casino Royale has possibility to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goomf Posted November 17, 2006 Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 I heard some damn good reviews about Casino Royale. The blonde bond already signed a contract for two more bond movies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evangelion Posted November 18, 2006 Report Share Posted November 18, 2006 Damn that was a good movie. Some hot girls, some good action. It was, overall, one of the best James Bond movies I've seen in some time. While Pierce Brosnan, in my mind, was the spitting image of what James Bond should be, Daniel Craig is pretty much Sean Connery reincarnate, sans the Scottish accent. All in all, it was an excellent movie, although the intro lacked a little something special (see it to understand what I mean). A billion dollars (current standard cost of movie theater visit) well spent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pali Posted November 20, 2006 Report Share Posted November 20, 2006 Brosnan was the PERFECT Bond. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deykari Posted November 20, 2006 Report Share Posted November 20, 2006 He was. But I think it was still too cheesy for my liking. Is Casino Royale cheesey? Dey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pali Posted November 20, 2006 Report Share Posted November 20, 2006 Goldeneye was, in my opinion, the last really good Bond movie. Tomorrow Never Dies, The World is Not Enough, and Die Another Day were all just kinda lacking something. EDIT: And by lacking something, I mean in the writing. I still stand by Brosnan.

Deykari Posted November 20, 2006 Report Share Posted November 20, 2006 Again, I agree. I think the last three focused a bit too much on hollywood flashiness, they just felt too cheesy for my liking. Dey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarriorCleric Posted November 20, 2006 Report Share Posted November 20, 2006 He was. But I think it was still too cheesy for my liking. Is Casino Royale cheesey? Dey Not cheesy at all. It's really damn good. The action is fast, dark, and 'realistic' with just enough flash to make it how watching a movie should be. Oh and none of that high tech, ball point pen that turns to a felt tip pen at the push of a button gadgets that end up saving the day. And I may have to think very hard about if Tom Selleck is going to remain as my man crush now... One more good movie from Daniel Craig could change that.

Chief Posted November 20, 2006 Report Share Posted November 20, 2006 Anyone seen the original? Its a comedy for some reason and incredibley wierd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inscribed Posted November 20, 2006 Report Share Posted November 20, 2006 Anyone seen the original? Its a comedy for some reason and incredibley wierd. The 'original' wasn't an actual James Bond flick, but a spoof on the spy genre of film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorCleric Posted November 21, 2006 Report Share Posted November 21, 2006 Casino Royale was the first Bond Novel... The first movie was a spoof, but was still the story, the new one is a serious, modern take on it. There was also a TV show based on it.

Rensvert Posted November 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2006 Alright after watching this movie I have some things to say first off That movie was GREAT!! It was probably the best Bond movie since Goldeneye if not before that I might have to so far as to say it was one of the best Bond movies made in my lifetime. For starters the Bond girl was so unlike any other Bond girl that we've seen in such a long time it was great to finally see Bond go for a girl who is smart and intelligent and not just a girl who is easy on the eyes. Secondly this time around we see a much more human Bond he makes mistakes he uses his arms to fight instead of fancy futuristic gagets it was really great. Plus the ending of this movie was so different from previous ones it makds me wonder if the next Bond movie will pick up almost where this one left off it was a really wonderful movie and I even thought Mr. Crieg did a great job at being Bond he was serious yet clever and all around made a very impressive Bond, James Bond.
