Casino Royale 10th Anniversary

[Alex Murphy]

Daniel Craig's debut as James Bond premiered at the Odeon Leicester Square in London on November 14, 2006.

My favourite Bond movie. Only one of the Craig era I consider worthwhile, too (haven't seen Spectre, though). Also a fantastic poster.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

My favorite Bond film as well. Craig, Green, Mads and Dench made it one hell of a ride.

 

[Smilodon]

Holy smokes, I can't believe it's been ten years since it premiered. It's a film that gets better as time goes by, especially as the Craig films become more classical Bond films.

Dryden: Made you feel it, didn't he?

BANG!

Craig: Yes...considerably.

 

[DaddlerTheDalek]

Still a fantastic Bond movie.

 

[Spider-Aziz]

You love to start happy threads, Alex. I salute you.
My favorite Craig Bond movie.

Skyfall is really fun too, it's great.
Spectre is a bit of a mess, and it kinda wasted what could have been my favorite James Bond villain in both the actor and the idea are great.

 

[Dave McFly]

still my fave bond opening sequence and song

 

[Broseph44]

Love this film. One of my favorite Bond films.

 

[Alex Murphy]

Gonna rewatch now to celebrate.

I feel like I'm one of few people who prefers Skyfall. Skyfall gets a lot of hate online but I think it's better paced and generally more exciting than Casino Royale.

Casino Royale is like 20 minutes too long for me. The first two acts are great though.

 

[Gold Samurai]

Best theater experience I've had so far. Everyone laughed in the right places

Big applause at the end

I agree that Casino Royale was a bit too long. They should have shaved off 15 minutes. However, Skyfall is good but it doesn't come close to Casino Royale. For starters it really dropped the ball with the visceral action and it's a bit pretentious. Furthermore, it's a rehashing of the world is not enough, which is a mistake to do in and of itself.

The Craig era, imo is ranked in order of each release. They progressively worsened. Quantum Of Solace is severely underrated and the less said about spectre the better.

 

[The Joker]

Wow 10 years. I remember seeing it in theaters like it was yesterday.

What?
Spectre is a nice addition with some glaring flaws, and a disappointing use of Christoph Waltz who was a great choice for the foil of that film.
Quantum of Solace is the weakest in the Craig series, it's not bad, but it's a heckuva mess.

 

[Kahran Ramsus]

Yeah, hard to believe this film is 10 years old.

It isn't my favorite Bond film, although it is in the top five and the best of Craig's.

I love Skyfall but as time goes on, I've come to appreciate the slower third act and and less bombastic climax to Casino Royale more and more.

 

[ehh]

This is probably my favorite Bond film and I'm sorry I missed it in theaters.

My first Bond film in theaters was Die Another Day, but I was pretty young and enjoyed it at the time, but it's really bad.

I missed QOS in theaters, too. But I've seen both Skyfall and Spectre and will probably see every Bond film in theaters from here on out.

Quantum of Solace is heavily flawed but I think it's better than both Skyfall and especially spectre. The latter isn't a terrible movie but it is overwhelmingly beyond dissapointing. The only good thing about spectre was Bond's meeting with Mr.White, the spectre meeting in Rome (ruined by that awful so called car chase) and the Bond vs Hinx fight on the train.

 

[Galactus123]

I wasn't sure about the decision to cast Craig but I liked him as soon as the movie started. The gun barrel part was awesome.

 

[Black Narcissus]

The best Bond film made so far.

Nostalgia toupee bastahs will say otherwise, but they know this is the goddamn truth.

 

[Loden Greatstorm]

10 years? Wow....
