    Here is a quick link to the trailer for the upcomming Bond movie Casino Royale.

    What do you guys think of Daniel Craigs preformance, from the trailers?

    I think his performance looks pretty impressive from that trailer. Obviously it's not enough for a proper judgement but I'm really looking forward to it and I'm also please that they've ditched the recent obsession with gadgets and explosions rather than plots and such. It's nice to have some cool gadgets and action sequences in there but it's also good to have some espionage, tension and things like that.

    So yeah, it's certainly one I'm looking forward to and Daniel Craig's performance looks pretty promising.

    I'm surprisingly impressed by that trailer. After all the whining from the hardcore Bond fans about how Craig was a crap actor and totally unsuited to the part, I have to say that this is probably the best Bond trailer I've seen in a recent years. Lets just hope the finished article is up to the standard of the trailer

    From the whole "second kill" part, he looks like a real Bond, closer to the Fleming ideal....and this looks totally awesome.

    Wow!

    That trailer looks a lot better than the other one I've seen. I looks like a darker James Bond. As for Craig, Mr. Craig as 007...I'll have to see the movie to find out if he can do it. There hasn't been a good Bond since Goldeneye. The World Is Not Enough was decent enough.

    Woh. Just woh. Easily one of the best looking Bond films in a long while. I know that's just the trailer, but damn, that's some good looking stuff, and Daniel Craig seems, now, the best option for being Bond. This may even surpass Goldeneye, anyone agree?

    This may surpass Goldfinger, which is the Bond I look for others to surpass... then again I also look to Connery as the ultimate Bond so far. Craig may take that title however.

    Hard to tell from the trailer, but there is only one James Bond anyway.
    Sean Connery ftw!
    I am definately going to watch it, maybe not so much because of the Bond, but more because of Mads Mikkelsen. *sighs*

    A popular danish actor, he also featured in King Arthur as Tristan. I think he is an awesome actor (from the danish movies/tv-series I've seen).

    Count me as unimpressed based just on the trailer...felt far too much action movie oriented without the Bond flair. Dunno couldnt shake the feeling that Vin Diesel or Jason Statham were going to pop out at any moment.

    Pretty cool, I think Craig will work out just fine judging by the trailer.

    I really hope they'll bring those movies back a bit. Cut all that stupid special effect action and let the agent do his job! Latest Bond-films were awful, nice to watch maybe once, but... Didn't like..

    Or jumping from that crane thing to the other crane.

    But this action does seem different, first we didn't see any lasers or some new gadget being used, and plus, we had a look at parts of the acting, which from the trailer, seems very good.

    We can hope Diesel and Stratham choked to death on the new gadgets, leaving the acting to those we can trust.

    That remains to be seen ie when the movie is released on whether he really deserves to be called 007!

    I'll be interested in seeing this I think- the last two films were shocking in my opinion- they just felt far fetched and way over the top. This one looks far grittier- more realistic.

    And hot damn! Chris Cornell's doing the the main song, finally they've picked someone with actual talent. A world away from the prancing posers who do it normally
