Action scenes looked awesome, I can't wait.
EDIT: I've always assumed that the titles are just that - when a 00 retires or dies (same for M, Q, etc) they simply get a new one to fill the position. It's especially clear for M say, it's just the title they use for whoeever is running the show. Whether that means the James Bond name is part of the persona the agent accepts when he becomes 007 I'm not sure, I always imagine it is but no answer really makes that much logical sense. I prefer to see a new Bond as meaning the old one left (probably died) and they brought some other secret agent in who was willing to take over the identity. As for why they almost never mention the previous Bonds I guess you could accept that as part of the deal, there's no real reason for the new Bond's to talk about the old ones because they are Bond now. But like I said I doubt any explanation could really make sense, which I'm sure is why they just kinda leave it vague like Superman's ridiculous secret identity.

Looking great.
This is my most anticipated movie of the year.
:lol @ Connery pic.
I loved Connery, the man was truly Bond. Only Bond who could tie up a girl with her own bikini within a second.

The pouty lips are what bother me.Docpan said:
Is it just me, or does he look like a fucking drug addict in this pic? Dark, sunken in eyes, fucked up hair.... What the hell?
Is that a black eye? Did he get the shit knocked out of him by his dealer for not paying on time?

He looks fucking oldschool, like an actor you'd see around the Connery era.
I would like to thank the Bourne Identity and Batman Begins for collaberating their efforts into making this film a reality.

I am soooo not a fan of that "I'm doing the homage to Ursula Andress stepping out of the water" Speedo shot...

GOOD. I'm glad to see them re-envisioning Bond as someone who's not a complete wuss. Connery was excellent as Bond but I guess I'm happy to see them trying to make this iteration of him grittier and less debonair. Frankly, I welcome the switch and I have no doubt that Craig will do a great job at it.
The appeal of James bond is he can just as easily sex up the ladies while blowing shit up, all the while by not breaking a sweat and not taking anything seriously. This guy doesnt do it for me. He does not look suave enough, looks too tough, and while that is not a bad thing in and of itself, its not my image of a James Bond.

Yeah and what about "please, I'm only a professional doing my job"
Bond - (shoots guy) "So am I"
...Unless that was from some other movie...

Ok Daniel Craig is pretty ugly, but he's going to bring the badass back to Bond finally. I can get over the looks.
Now that is a teaser! This will be much better than Superman Returns 
. Now that I got that obligatory jab in there, I dont have much to say, since I said it all in the French teaser thread, and this is identical. As I said in that thread, I have been very skeptical about this, but the teaser has made the majority of my fear disappate. However, where is my baccarat game?
Oh, and to the poster who said that scene was too much of an Ursula Andress nod, hello, did you not see Die Another Day? This scene in Casino Royale is much less blatant.

ive never played baccarat and heck I dont really understand it, but they should have left it in. Whats the point of watching Bond go to some exotic foreign casino if he is just going to play the same games we have here in the states?

Actually....
Bond was never really envisioned as a man with "Model" good looks....
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Bond
Craig will own you all....
and IMO he is a "good looking" d00d. Unique features and such.....

Good. That Bond was getting boring as fuck.
Craig has the perfect look. Bond is a ruthless, flawed (read the f'in' books!) hard-ass. Not a fucking Calvin Klein model. Craig has that rugged look, and genuinely looks like he could fuck you up. Brosnan was a non-threatening pretty boy. Craig is from the Connery and Dalton mould, which is the best mould a Bond could come from.

The style, mannerisms, and swagger of Bond is supposed to be that of Dr. No's director Terance Young.
I don't trust Martin Campbell. Goldeneye was good, Beyond Borders was good, Zorro was great, but No Escape, Legend of Zorro, and Vertical Limit were all awful.

He was very suave, sophisticated, had a love of drink and culture. And Young was the one that groomed the rough-around-the-edges Connery into Bond.Apharmd Battler
