Every one just wants to crap on what we hold dear - star trek, mission impossible, charlies angels, alien, predator and james friggin bond already. ( I suppose you could add star wars to the list but Boss Nass was a geezer for loaning out that gungan army and so he's done alright by me.). Anyway - casino Royale was fun if you're not a fan of the bond series and can't give an arse to the past traditions. I love the bond movies - miss moneypenny, the fights, the locations, the gadgets, the one-liners, john barry's scores, the opening tiles, the gun barrel at the start, M's office, the henchman popping up at the end for a final scrap - all of this was ditched by Casino Royale. Nice one Michael G Wilson - nice one Eon productions and thanks for nothin !
As for me original point LAZENBY WAS AND STILL IS THE BEST BOND EVER - I SAID. He was cool, caring, charismatic - his film had all of the elements of what made bond great - action, music, plot, characters, cinematograhy and you wanted more of Lazenby as BOND. Lazenby is a genuine bloke and I've always wished him well. I'll watch OHMSS more than CASINO anytime. Thanks George !
