BOND’S boss M was nearly outed as a LESBIAN in the new 007 film.
Director Martin Campbell wanted to shake up the series and suggested a scene with Dame Judi Dench — spy chief M — in bed with a woman. Another plan included a toy boy.
Campbell said before last night’s world premiere: “We came up with all kinds of ideas for M.”
But star Daniel Craig felt that M bedding a woman — or Bond himself — was a change too far.
He told The Sun: “At the beginning M is the only person he cares about and she cares about him. He’s slightly flirtatious with her. I don’t want to go there, with it going any further.
“M bedding a woman, that’s Martin’s idea. What’s great is that she’s in bed with somebody, because it shows she has a life.”

A great night, the odeon did a great job, redocrating the screen that they showed bond. They had bond cars outside, bond music playing inside, glamarous girls selling programmes and offering you glasses of champagne, it was a brilliant night. And as for the film - stunning, brilliant, amazing.
My review:
Going back to it’s roots, this movie wouldn’t seem out of place in the Connery Era when placed against classics such as From Russia With Love and On Her Majesty’s Secret Service. This is a reboot, and is clearly a new direction for Bond. We are now in the 21st century where the villains are terrorists as oppose to power mad megalomaniacs, it’s got a much darker and serious tone to the film, reflecting the times we are living in. It’s a far more realistic and down to earth movie, straying away from the invisible cars, face changing villains and larger than life characters as seen in Die Another Day.
Craig’s performance is of top standard, being up there at the top equally, maybe even beating Sean Connery’s performance as Bond. He combines the ruthless nature of Dalton’s bond with the charisma of Connery.
This is not the conventional Bond, he’s rough and makes mistakes, he bruises and bleeds, and most importantly – he falls in love. This is a reboot and this is his first mission, we see Bond develop as a character, as he turns into the suave secret agent that we all know and love.
Craig and his co-stars give convincing and memorable performances, complex three-dimensional characters who we actually care for. Our emotions are played with as we see Bond on his first mission, playing a high stakes poker game with the villain Le Chiffre, banker to the world’s terrorists. Along the way we are given many thrilling actions sequences, building up to the film’s dramatic climax.
This has to be one of the best written movies in the franchise, Paul Haggis (Crash) has done wonders as he’s took Purvis and Wade’s script and added his talent to it of brilliant characterisation. This is a deep and meaningful story, playing on a 44 year old franchise and giving a modern and exciting twist.
The press have been raving for this movie, and for once they are right. Casino Royale has to be one of the strongest and most entertaining Bond movie in the franchise’s history. Bond has been reinvented for a 21st century world, and despite the original criticisms Craig and this movie are of top standards. Bond is very much back.
A brilliant review there Bry! The film sounds great, must try and get an opportunity to see it! If not, i will probably buy it on dvd. :D
Well Done Daniel Craig he was great as James Bond this was a top bond movie all the cast was ace especially the baddie. One of the movies of the year.
Apparently Bond was beaten in box office in uS by the movie Happy Feet about the dancing penguins.. Bond pulled $31.7m but Happy Feet got $33.. quiet surprised
and we all know why that is, becuase the idiotic producers of competing film companies put the Harry Potter trailer with this film, so all the Harry Potter geeks and little kids ran to see that trailer as oppose to the film.Quote:
