Outside of the lame love interest, Casino Royale was the best Bond movie. This also looks very good. For some reason I really want a computer wallpaper of Daniel Craig walking over the rocks with the logo next to him.
1:13, 1:25 and all the desert scenes were filmed where my wife does research (in Paranal) at the world`s largest telescope array. Really beautiful place.
I read up on it and was amazed. In this film I heard they wanted at least a few sets that were very Ken Adam-ish (the guy who did set design for most of the Bonds up until, like, 12) and the interior of one of those buildings practically was BORN to be in a Bond film.
