In Reply to: I'll say that Casino Royale is the best Bond film... posted by RGA on November 26, 2006 at 04:15:16:
the ridiculous beginning scene where he chases a guy in an embassy all around and then, after ducking automatic weapons fire and using a handgun shoots the shit out of a small platoon, blows up the second and third platoons after they have him in their sights.
Surely, one of the silliest scenes in Bond, or any, film.
The foot chase, of course, was ludicrous also but I'll be kind and not elaborate upon it.
It must be that you and others here are so dying to have a series to love you overlook all the moronic faults. Hype? Yeah, it probably plays a part, too.
How many years did people feel America was winning in Iraq, after all?
The power of the media is a monster.
