Poker Driven Bond Movie Tops in Argentina

The latest installment in the internationally acclaimed Bond movie series, Casino Royale, continues to bring up records across the globe, recently coming in at number one in Argentina, setting records by taking in $314,002 at the box office. The movie, which has a very strong poker themed plot, is swiftly approaching the $390 million mark worldwide, which has fans imagining it will pass Die Another Day as the best performing Bond film of all time - quite a feat, considering that many threatened to pan the movie thanks to the first blonde Bond, Daniel Craig.
