Bond, James Bond

[Rob]

I think Daniel Craig is great, but whether or not he'll make a decent James Bond... who knows?

[ruiner]

I'm not very familiar with this guy but from what I've seen, he doesn't LOOK like a Bond!

The franchise should just call it quits, Bronson was great but the last two films sucked ass.  So much that I can't differentiate between the two.

Well, he was the only decent thing (IMO) about "Layer Cake", and was in the first "Tomb Raider". He's going to need some mega supporting cast, because otherwise he's the 21st century George Lazenby. Some virtual unknown who did a Bond film then got ousted.

What you meant to say that he was great in Layer Cake, a movie which happened to be phenomenal all around.

He's going to need some mega supporting cast, because otherwise he's the 21st century George Lazenby. Some virtual unknown who did a Bond film then got ousted.

He's not an unknown overseas.

Daniel Craig.

[john todd]

he seemed like he might be able to pull off the expert at everything role in tomb raider.  the only real question is how good he looks in a tux and if we will believe he can get any girl with a single witty line.

Casino Royale

Sure don't look like no Bond! 



I must say the DB5 DBS looks interesting. 

[Chris]

I saw the trailer for this when I saw The Davinci Code on Saturday and I didn't think he was as bad as I thought he was going to be and I actually was a bit releaved, but I hear what you're saying Dale.

[Angry Ewok]

So they ran out of retarded storylines and their just going to rehash old ones?

Sony Pictures and Eon release official Casino Royale synopsis

Casino Royale is the 21st James Bond film adventure and stars Daniel Craig in his debut as "007." The film is based on creator Ian Fleming's first novel about the debonair and dangerous British secret agent.

Casino Royale introduces JAMES BOND before he holds his license to kill. But Bond is no less dangerous, and with two professional assassinations in quick succession, he is elevated to "00" status.

Bond's first 007 mission takes him to Madagascar, where he is to spy on a terrorist, MOLLAKA (Sebastien Foucan). Not everything goes to plan and Bond decides to investigate, independently of MI6, in order to track down
the rest of the terrorist cell. Following a lead to the Bahamas, he encounters DIMITRIOS (Simon Abkarian) and his girlfriend, SOLANGE (Caterina Murino). He learns that Dimitrios is involved with LE CHIFFRE (Mads Mikkelsen), banker to the world's terrorist organizations.

Some changes from the book, baccarat will not be the game but instead it will be Texas Hold 'Em poker. This movie is a prequel from the looks of it.

New Bond Trailer

Wow!  I still can't figure out why Judi Dench is "M" if this is a prequel, but whatever - it looks a bit cooler every time I see a new preview...
