Re: Casino Royale
Just saw this - solid film. The poker scenes were as well done as they could be. Craig's definitely a great choice for Bond - or at least for this character of Bond, who's still clever, but certainly a lot more edgy.
Sad to see 'Q' (or 'R') go, but I didn't miss him either - the Bond franchise was straddling the fence between goofy, cartoonish nonsense and serious action film - a few clunkers in a row made them have to decide one way or the other, and I feel like they picked the right one.
