'Trash'
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
Vulnera-Bond! And it's not the same trailer that ran during Nip/Tuck (it's much longer, and has more dialogue and less parkours).
You know, for a guy who was getting guff for his will-o-the-wispiness, he looks like rougher trade than Clive Owen has been.
Also, buff.
Lest I forget, Judi Dench is HOTT.

OMG YES!
Dude, I cannot get my boss to believe that. I am so glad that others see the HOTT that is Dame Judi.

Mrs. Henderson. Very HOTT.
I haven't watched the trailer yet but I'm taking the buffistas' word for it. I've been on Daniel Craig's side since I first heard because of my extreme love for Layer Cake. I think he'll make a wonderful Bond and I want to in-your-face to the people at craigsnotbond.com.
does anyone else do that? Put movies on instead of music?
Yes, though I normally only do it when I'm going to be spending a lot of time in my living room/kitchen area, like when I'm washing dishes. I'll also fire up stuff on the DVR that I can follow without having to keep a constant eye on the TV.
I was skeptical, you know, cause it's what I do, and I've seen most of the Bonds and all, but I'd probably see it based on the trailer I saw the other night.
I think he'll be a completely capable Bond (while still nursing a slight grudge over the way Brosnan was booted). The best thing is Casino Royale is an actual Ian Fleming story that's thankfully lacking satellite weapons systems or opportunities for Denise Richards to play a nuclear physicist.

Really, he was? I thought he looks pretty normal, as actors go. They were hoping for Lou Ferigno??
he looks like rougher trade than Clive Owen has been.
He was rough in Layer Cake (a smug little dislikeable movie, with a couple of good notes), and then I saw him as a South African Zionist agent (who wore tight pants and gold chains!!) in Munich. Nice to think that Bond might have range.
Still not convinced that there won't be some true idiocy in there somewhere, but likable idiocy beats unlikable hands down.
Possibly better than the actual movie: [link]
Count me in with Cash in liking Layer Cake.
Just got back from seeing Half Nelson. The movie is too long, but Ryan Gosling was AMAZING. A really impressive performance--you really see the way addiction inexorably progresses and how that erodes his personality. I was also thrilled to see classroom scenes where they got it right--the teacher sounded like a teacher and the kids behaved like actual kids. There was no comedic banter or character-defining lines.
