blitzpackage Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 I'm not a huge Bond fan and I haven't seen ALL of the movies. But after having seen and enduring 2-3 Brosnan Bond movies, I'm glad to see the character is back. When I first saw a picture of Daniel Craig I said "This guy isn't Bond." Evidentally he is...... http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/casino_royale/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

@DCGoldPants Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 I'm going tonight. What would be cool, is if they showed this, then an old Connery bond film. Thunderball, Diamonds are Forever. Something like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaceman Spiff Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 I heard this things like 2.5 hours long. I also heard he's more of a cold blooded killer, like he is in the books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PleaseBlitz Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 I am a HUGE Bond fan. I thought Brosnan did an alright job, but having seen Daniel Craig in Layer Cake, I think he'll be an OUTSTANDING Bond. I cant wait to see this movie.

skin-em Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 This Bond looks like he could actually kick some @$$, not just sit there and strike a pose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blitzpackage Posted November 17, 2006 Author Share Posted November 17, 2006 They say in one of the reviews, speaking of kicking *****, that this is the first bond movie in decades where he actually throws fisticuffs. They say it shows for the first time in a while he can kill with his hands as well as his Walther. Pretty cool IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 The Jax paper did a front page (of the entertainment section) thing about Bond. Rates the best actors, best movies, best girls, gadgets, villians, so forth. The author rated Craig as best actor, above Connery. And rated this film as the best film. Now, granted, the bottom of the article also stated that the author wasn't their usual film critic, he actually writes for thier sports department, but he was the biggest Bond fan on staff. And I agreed with a lot of his opinions. I, too, rate Dalton as the best actor behind Connery, and I also thought Lazenby did a good job. (Although I did disagree with him a little. I would have rated David Niven above Roger Moore. But maybe that's only because I've never seen Niven.) And I, too, rate The Living Daylights as one of the best films. I'm going tonight.

Larry Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 Line I've heard is in the movie. (Possible spoiler. I'll try to post it in black text. Drag your mouse over it if you want to see it.) Bond: I'll have a vodka martini Waiter: Shaken, or striied, sir? Bond: Do I look like a man who cares? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember in Tomorrow Never Dies when he kicks the **** out of like 5 guys on a catwalk above the newspaper printing machines and throws a dude into one of them.

Larry Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 Sorry, but when I think of recent Bond fights, I imagine Roger Moore (wearing an RPG strapped to his wrist) walking up to Jaws and punching him in his steel teeth. :puke: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slackermike Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 That's surprising because in the movie trailer it looks like the movie absolutely blows. Besides, the only "007" to me will be Roger Moore. He was 007 in the first Bond movie that I saw, and nobody else seemed to stick for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hu-bison-skinsfan Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 No doubt I'll check it out but (not that any of ya'll care) Bond is always incredibly attractive and I find that this Craig guy is not. ...doesn't mean that the movie won't be good, though.

honeydont Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 Just go back from seeing it.........What I can tell you is that over 50% of the audience stood up and clapped at the end!!!!! I did too it was fantastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destino Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 I really liked this Bond movie.... because it wasn't a typical Bond movie. They replaced the stupid gadgets with more raw emotion and better writing. The new Bond is also an acting upgrade from the last. Good movie, not just good Bond movie.

RiggoReincarnated Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 Craig is a huge upgrade from Brosnan. Apparently this movie deals with a younger Bond who has just reached 00 status...and without giving the plot away, gives some insight into why he becomes the man he does in the other Bond movies.

mjah Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 Awesome movie. One of the very best Bond films. I'd be hard pressed to think of more than two in the entire series that are nearly as good, and those are from the 1960s. In my mind Roger Craig is easily the best bond since Sean Connery, and legitimately rivals him for essentially (re-)inventing the screen role. No invisible cars, no tsunami surfing, no dream machine, no funhouse of horrors, no redneck sheriffs, no space station battles or satellite chases, no ultra-cheesy lines. Just a really solid movie with three-dimensional characters, some humor, a good story, and a whole lot of @$$-kicking action. If you've ever enjoyed any of the Bond movies, or think you might, go see this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
