  Casino Royale (1967) vs. Casino Royale (2006)
  
  Casino Royale (1967)One possible explanation for the disjointed nature of the movie is that Peter Sellers walked off the movie before he had finished all of his scenes. Of course, there is that whole "five directors" thing.David Niven was Ian Fleming's original choice for James Bond.Casino Royale (2006)For the first time, the gun barrel opening sequence has been integrated into the narrative of the film. Being as such, it is inderted in the heat of the action, and without the usual slow walk b...

Oh, and Aston Martins, Jaguars, Land Rovers, and Volvos; all of which are owned by Ford.The book that Bond picks up in Cuba is "A Field Guide to Birds of the West Indies," written by James Bond. This is the book whence Ian Fleming originally got the name for 007.

  Tomorrow Never Dies (1997)
  
  Factoid-a-mundos:Admiral Roebuck is Geoffrey Palmer, Judy Dench (M)'s co-star on the British citcom As Time Goes By.Starting with the previous film, Damiel Kleinman has taken over the title sequence duties from Maurice Binder.Keep an eye out for the moment where Carver mock's Wai Lin with his ridiculous parody of Kung Fu. Heh. I'm just amused by Jonathan Pryce acting goofy.

  Licence to Kill (1989)
  
  Yes, it's a British movie, and the title is spelled "Licence". So what if they changed it for the American release? That Doesn't make Lola Rennt's original title Run Lola Run.Fun facts:The film can't decide what sort of tone it wants to take.Even the pre-title sequence flip-flops between lighthearted and almost jokey, and a dark, brutal murder/torture scene. Even though Felix Leiter's just-married bride was killed at the beginning of the film, by the end, he's recovering in hospital and seems ...

  The Living Daylights (1987)
  
  So, okay, the main villian in this Bond adventure (#15) may be pretty goofy, but Timothy Dalton's lean and mean bond lent it a serious edge the series needed to kick it back into gear.

  A View to a Kill (1985)
  
  Fun facts for Bond 14:There's a real Zoran Corporation who makes microchips, and who thretened to sue the producers for defamation of character. Thus, this is the only James Bond film to feature a legal disclaimer a the start of the film.If Zorin makes chips that are impervious to EMP, why the hell isn't everyone using them in military applications later, thus foiling the EMP plot in GoldenEye? Alison Doody, better known as Dr. Elsa Schneider from *Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade,* is seen ...
