Royale with cheese
Awards Casino Royale will win:
Most cringeworthy product placement without seeing the product, for Omega watches.
Best use of Richard Branson in a bit-part, for his non-speaking role standing at an airport scanner with his arms spread like Christ.
Best use of parkour in a film.
Best fight scene, every 12 minutes.
Best self-administered defibrillator.
Most picturesque locations rarely used in a film. Montenegro, anyone?
Best beefcake scene, Daniel Craig emerging from the surf.
Really quite good spy thriller.

Great headline.
ah. but, best product placement?
bond and chickie standing at counter in hotel lobby, concierge says, "a package for you mr. bond".
hands brown paper package to bond.
in that instant two fedex packages perfectly framed in shot, directly behind the concierge's outstretched hand.
genius.
Yes, I saw the fedex packages too -are we so alert to product placement that we actively look for it? sad. MB
i suspect it's becoming an artform.
oh, that an homoeroticism. "whip my balls harder?", pillll-ease. lol.
While I have not seen the Bond film yet, I have seen Crank, which also has a defibrillator scene (although, not self-administered). Must be the Hollywood trend du jour. I did like Crank a lot, although I really am quite undiscerning when it comes to movies; I cried at the ending of Paulie, a film about a talking parrot.
Actually, the headline should be Royale without cheese. It's the least fromagic of the Bond films. My apologies.
