Casino Royale
I saw Casino Royale last weekend, with Phil and Gillian.
For once there was an attempt to make Bond and his girl something more than very pretty cardboard. It still was cheesy, but not as much so.

What is it with Bond villains having a viscerally creepy physically characteristic? There was the guy with the bullet in his brain who put his hand through tables and walked on hot coals for kicks, and the guy with the steel jaw (ok, perhaps more campy than creepy), and now weeping-blood-guy. BTW, I foresee the creation of a thousand
