Best Bond Movie a Poker Flick
It is hard not to classify Casino Royale as a poker flick when so much of the outcome of the movie is hinged on a pivotal Texas Holdem tournament, and it seems like the decision to make this movie was a good bet by the Bond franchise as the movie becomes the highest-grossing James Bond film ever. World wide cinemas report in that the movie has now taken $454 million, overstepping Die Another Day which took $431 million world wide. Great news, considering many panned the decision to cast a blond actor (Daniel Craig) as the latest Bond incarnation.
