Four reasons you should go see "Casino Royale"
silkncense:
Saw Casino Royale yesterday.
1.) The Black stuntman in the opening sequence - Un-fricking-believable! Danile Craig - great but you couldn't take your eyes off this other guy (didn't catch his name).
2.) O M G !!!!! Just not fair!
3.) Hmmmmm - loved Bond. Did NOT buy the love relationship (don't want to provide any spoilers) - Not at all...sorry.
4.) Jake. Yes. But No. I didn't get the rush I got (get) from seeing him in Brokeback. He looks (don't hit) plain.
Kd5000:
Oh well, I will probably see it today. I always think Bond movies are incredibly formulistic, but there's not alot out there I wanta see today.
I saw Darren Aronofsky's THE FOUNTAIN on Wed. Visually interesting, but very disconnected. I still don't know what I saw and it seemed a missed opportunity on the subject of immortality. Hugh Jackman kept his clothes on :( . No trailer for ZODIAC in that film.
Lumière:
I am sold on BOND!
So much so I am going to see it again tomorrow! :P
And D. Craig definitely puts some lead in my pencil .. lol..(if I had a pencil ..)

Here is a quote from IMDB you might be interested in!
The style of free-running/movement Mollaka the Bomb-Maker uses in the Madagascar Chase near the beginning of the film is called Parkour. Sebastien Foucan, who plays Mollaka, is also one of the creators of Parkour.

I would never hit you. And believe it or not, I agree with all your sentiments. Especially #3 - I found the relationship tacked on and unnecessary, and though I understood the intention of including it, I thought it did nothing to move the narrative forward and it fact probably the only flaw in an otherwise perfect movie.
And yes, I still see Jack as existing separately from Jake. And as much as I adore the latter, I see little bits of him in all of his performances - more in some than in others - but I see only Jack in that one.
