Casino Royale

As I mentioned yesterday, I wasn't exactly sure if I would like Daniel Craig as the new James Bond. Well, after seeing Casino Royale yesterday, I can definitely say I don't. I don't think he looks like Bond, he doesn't have his sense of humour, and there wasn't a gadget in sight. Furthermore, of course it's totally illogical that M. is already a woman, while this film portrays Bond's first year as a secret agent. And why isn't this movie set in the Cold War? After all, that was the time when Bond first started as a double 0. There is even a brief mention by M. where she whispers 'I miss the Cold War'. Uhm, hello, if there was any sense of chronology, she would have been right in the middle of the Cold War, and perhaps not even been born yet...

You may have guessed it: I, as a profound Bond fan, hated this movie. Such a shame to bring such a great franchise to a waste. Hopefully they will come to theit senses in the next one. This has happened before. Live and let die, the first Roger More movie, sucked ass big time, while afte the that the series was right back on track. So I am in good hope that the same will happen this time, although I really doubt it, since the reviews are quite raving and also I've heard from many people that they loved this movie.

Good thing was the popcorn tasted as good as ever, so I didn't exactly got bored, but still, I would have expected better.
