When Bond logs into MI6’s secure site using M’s profile in Casino Royale (2006), he looks into Alex Dimitrios (who he is tracking in the Bahamas) as we well as his known associates. The computer scene is pretty quick, but it’s neat to see Dimitrios’ bad (and mostly dead) friends.

James Bond (Daniel Craig) drives a Ford Mondeo in Casino Royale (2006)
It was the worst case of forcing product placement…they even left a ton of room for the Ford logo!

*THIS* is how you end a James Bond movie!
The ending of Casino Royale (2006) is nearly flawless. It’s a perfect finale to a new actor’s first James Bond movie – it’s in a beautiful setting (Lake Como in Italy – ooooh!), has the element of surprise, Bond has a badass, big machine gun (umm silencer anyone??), the traditional “Bond. James Bond.” intro (finally!) And then the piece de resistance: the blaring James Bond theme, which I will happily listen to throughout mindless scrolling end credits in a heartbeat.
It felt like an absolute triumph in the theater and I left with a pep in my step. So awesome!
James Bond (Daniel Craig) introduces himself at the end of Casino Royale (2006)
Although short, this little scene from Casino Royale (2006) was a missed opportunity, in my opinion. Any changes wouldn’t be super significant, but it puzzled me as to why the writers didn’t inject a little more humor or sex appeal for Daniel Craig’s Bond in this interaction.

I’ve always enjoyed this two scene sequence from Casino Royale (2006), a few issues notwithstanding.
Starting off at a celebratory meal between James Bond (Daniel Craig) and Vesper Lynd (Eva Green), they continue from previous scenes in flirtatiously building a friendly rapport. Bond is so satisfied with his poker win that he can hardly stop smiling. His tried-and-true shaken, not stirred vodka martini tastes so good he also decides to call it a Vesper in honor of his company.
