Just watched the Casino Royale movie. Honestly, I did not understand most of the things they were saying. I mean this dolby surround kills. When they make a screener they place the camera in the back of the movie theater. Secondary sounds and bart of the music is translated through the rear speakers, and the voices are translated from the front speakers. So when u record the sounds from the back you basicly have the voices down and the music up. I could hear the music very well, but I couldn't hear a single word. As a result, I didn't get a full impression of the movie. Maybe piracy is bad, after all.


Anyway, the very character of James Bond is very appealing. My point is, Craig did his job. He brought Bond on a new surface. He finally started looking like an agent more than a sweetish aristocrat. I mean when I was looking at Sean Connery or at Pierce Brosnon I was never able to see a real person in either of their Bonds. They were just showing around and filling the screen with their sweetish faces. I was never interested in what was going to happen. But Craig I beleived entirely. I mean he does look real, taking his job seriously as an actor, not as a supermodel. You really start to sympathize, to feel a real life in James Bond. This kind of attitude destroyed the Bond stereotype by killing his artificiality and grotesqueness. The old Bond was killed once and for all, because a better alternative was provided. It brought the movie on the next stage.

I really liked this.
