11/25/2023 0 Comments Casino royale scenesPeople really didn’t know what to think of a blonde-haired, blue-eyed Bond taking the reigns of the then 45 year-old spy series. One thing I’ll always remember about the release of Casino Royale was the extreme build up of hype and even backlash at the casting of Daniel Craig as the next James Bond. While there were five total Bond films eligible for selection, including 2012’s excellent Skyfall, I’m confident the right Bond film was picked. The 21st(!) film in the Bond series was already on my short list, so I was quite pleased to see it chosen so early for the Ultimate Playbill. This week, I tackle holybeeofephesus’s #2 pick, Casino Royale (2006).īy the time Holy Bee selected Casino Royale with the thirteenth overall pick, I had only made one pick myself and was already digging in to my backpocket for another favorite film. As part of our Ultimate Playbill project, each week a faculty member will take the time to extol the virtues of one of the beloved films on this list.
