Bond

I saw Casino Royale over the weekend, and thought it was excellent. I'm a big Bond fan and thought Daniel Craig was a great choice as the new Bond (I loved his Layer Cake). Casino showed off a grittier, meaner Bond who was not afraid to kill someone with his bare hands. And there wasn't too much of the cheesy Bond lines or mannerisms (those that plagued Roger Moore and even Pierce Brosnan to some extent). Looking forward to the next couple of Bonds from Mr. Craig.

Also of note, the Chris Cornell theme song - "You Know My Name" - was quite poor. Makes you yearn for the days of Duran Duran's "A View To a Kill."
