That's why Henry Cavill will be a good 007

I just recently finished reading the 1953 novel. And actually, the torture from the novel was VERY different from the movie (besides the "wooden carpet beater" part). In the movie we see Bond being humorous about the whole situation and he is only hit like 5 times (in the balls). In the novel it is VERY dark, VERY serious, and VERY intense. Bond was in so much pain and so weak that he couldn't even gather enough saliva to talk. I think he was only able to say just 1 or 2 words to Le Chiffre throughout the whole ordeal. Bond wasn't humorous AT ALL! In fact he was so busy trying to remember the tactics of staying alive through the torture. Le Chiffre hit Bond's body ALL OVER and for OVER 10 FREAKING MINUTES too nonstop! Bond had a large ring of sweat under his chair AND he lost a sh*t load of blood too! He even fainted from the torture! The aftermath in the movie when Bond is recovering in the nursery home he doesn't seem too bad. However, in the novel Bond is freaking TRAUMATIZED by the torture he just went through! When he tells Mathis everything that happened to him, he starts to FREAK OUT and SWEAT WITH FEAR when he thinks about the torture Le Chiffre put him through! I'm not certain but I think the novel even said Bond had freaking NIGHTMARES about the torture! I kind of wish they had went with the dark tone of the torture from the novel into the movie because it is a LOT more interesting than what was in the movie (in my opinion).

From what I remember of the book, the movie follows the basic story very well. The major difference is the inclusion of the two action sequences at the beginning and the one at the ending because nobody is going to watch a Bond movie that doesn't have any action in it.

I love how Casino Royale still capture the vibes of a classic espionage/spy thriller movie that you can easily imagine be made back in the 50s or 60s in terms of storyline and character archetypes, but it also has all the goodness of over 50 years progress, such as the characterization of Vesper. Seriously, Eva Green is a goddess!! That much amount of girl power is just not possible in a Bond movie. She and M are the utmost badass females in all Bond movies

Actually Bond is described as having cold light Gray/ Blue eyes

I think it's important to note that the attempt to kill Bond in the book was tried AT the card table, with a one-shot silenced .45 hidden inside a cane. Dude straight up just tells Bond to give up or he'll be quietly shot and collapse without anyone realizing what happened until the assassin is long gone. Definitely not as cool as the movie's poisoning scene but still pretty cool.

This was great, Casino Royal was the first book of it's type that I read in one sitting, I spent six hour on the edge of my seat reading the book, not even getting up to use the bathroom, it is that intense of a novel. The film restored my faith in the Bond film franchise and this episode did a great job of going over the differences between the two. Thanks for making it.

Casino Royale with Daniel Craig was terrific! It's a pity they couldn't repeat that success with the other films. Great opening foot chase with Craig.

While “The bitch is dead” line from the movie reflected his own hurt feelings, in the book he was thinking of all of the other agents who were tortured because of her.

It's been almost two decades since I've read the book but the scene where Le Chiffre's henchman threatens Bond with a gun is very suspenseful and well done. And it wasn't just a gun with a silencer. It was also disguised as a cane. Do you guys actually read the books before you do these?

Worthy of note, Craig is not the cinema's first blue-eyed Bond. That would be Timothy Dalton. I was shocked by Casino Royale. By how good it was, and even more so, by how faithful it was. Not since On Her Majesty's Secret Service has a Bond film even *attempted* to remain so true to a Fleming narrative, and Craig, to me, embodies what many of the other Bonds have lacked. As Roger Moore famously mused, "To me, he looks like a killer. He looks as though he knows what he's doing. I look as though I might cheat at backgammon." Craig is also marvelous at taking a beating.

They didn't use a simple gun to try and assassinate bond at the casino. It was a gun disguised as a can which they aimed at his spine- the silencer and perfect close range would kill him and make it look like he had fainted. Movie scene is better though.

I would imagine they meant the original 1931 James Whale adaptation. The most significant difference is that in the original novel, the monster wasn't a dumb brute that goes on a rampage. He was instead an intelligent sociopath that serves as a more developed antagonist to Frankenstein. Also, the whole narrative is framed as a secondhand anecdote a failed writer and explorer received from the doctor himself as he lay dying in the north pole. Yeah, the film was nowhere near as ambitious in scale or philosophy.

You got stuff wrong: - He's not to take down LeChiffre, just prevent him from getting the russians' money back. - He doesn't sprout one-liners after killing. In fact, canon Bond hates killing, even in self defense, and even tho he's authorized and can kill in cold blood, he always tries not to. -Because Vesper is a russian double agent, everything she does is on purpose to sabotage Bond. All her damsel-y qualities are an act. - If you actually read the whole scene, Bond is not actually angry at her. He just knows HE gets distracted around women and is angry at himself. He tends to internally rant about shit before coming around to "actually I'm just cranky" A LOT in the books . - The married women bit IS actually from the books! He's the boy-toy sidepiece of a few. - Bond *loves* M (like a father). He actually uses the word in the books. And M is a grumpy, closed off fellow but the feeling is mutual. - Book Bond is actually NOT shitty to women. - Book Bond's car is not a fancy toy, it's an old-as-balls monstrosity he keeps going out of sheer love. It gets trashed permanently either in this book or the next because fans brote to Fleming that the car was shitty. - The main difference in the torture scene is that in the book Bond reacts LIKE AN ACTUAL HUMAN, not a one-liner-sprouting machine. He knows he will break, he barely holds on even tho the time the torture took was short (and everybody is amazed he held on so long), and the event shakes him so much he seriously considers quitting. - If you think Bond/Vesper was unclear I don't know what to tell you other than go back and reread. They have the most delightful 50s romantic comedy dynamic, and Bond falls in love with women really easily. Book Bond is NOT a sleazy fellow at all. The one time he acts as such is incredibly OOC and clearly Fleming trying to copy Connery's Bond. - Bond is not actually callous or cold. He actually visits Vesper's grave every year - that's how he meets his eventual wife. Fun fact: he falls in love with her because she drives BETTER than him. What's the difference: The book is better.

If you guys havent already, can you do on for Scott Pilgrim Vs The World. Pleaseee :D

The book and movie are so good. Felix is such a fun character and a great friend

On Her Majestys Secret Service is definitely the most faithful adaptation of a Bond novel.

so basically..the movie is the upgraded version of the book:) btw the greatest bond movie of them all

I wouldn't say upgraded. Movies tend to have more action but books focus more on the details. Also, much more information can be stored in a book than in a 90〜120min movie.

All the Bond films have been “ adapted” with a modern twist. Guy Hamilton described that the dragons have changed... apart from only the Russians that Fleming described. The main problem I had with this film was the so called Reintroduction of Bond, even though he’s been around since 1962. Plus for me their was too many gadgets. Sorry I dislike the Craig movies. No one will beat Connery.

I recall Pierce Brosnan being quite popular in the 1990s, but it seems people have retroactively turned on him. Yes, the scripts were weak, but he was a great 007. He saved the franchise after the lackluster Timothy Dalton films. The producers are the ones who turned the quality of the films into shit (Die Another Day).

Y'all forgot to note that between the film and novel, the goals for what MI6 wanted regarding Le Chifre were to make him desperate to defect vs just plain eliminated due to being difficult enemy agent. You also forgot to note that Mathis' nationality and familiarity to Bond were changed. The two were acquaintances prior to the book's events.

Yeah. American pronounciation. If the can say 'CRAY' then they can pronounce Craig correctly.

I wasn't aware how much the film followed the novel until I listened to the audiobook of Casino Royale. I previously thought the film beyond Bond's recovery was the screenwriter's invention. Upon experiencing the book and movie, I think the movie definitely improved on the material. Your comparison videos are great and truly appreciated.

Very good. “Casino Royale” is the only one of the books I have read. It is also my favorite film in the series. I like the ruthless, brutal Bond. Much better than the comedic figure he was forced into by many of the movies.

Casino Royale is absolutely the best James Bond movie ever! Daniel Craig is the best James Bond!

Nice :D Could you also do On Her Majesty's Secret Service?

The American Bond, Jimmy, had some serious 50's swagger. I loved the performance.

Hey! what about the game? In the novel, Bond was a genius baccarat player while Craig's Bond relies on mere luck

I once won a poker hand with the exact same straight flush that Bond does.

Hey Casey and Michael, first off I just want to say you guys are great, the whole Cinefix channel is and I really appreciate how you guys take the time to break down major difference between films and the books or comics they are based off of. I learn a lot and feel better informed. One property I would very much love to see you guys explore is "A Clockwork Orange," there is a history with that adaptation and I am confident many of your fans would be interested in a "What's the Difference" video on that. In any case, I certainly look forward to your future videos and give my support all the way!

Does anyone know which event inspired Fleming to wrote "Casino Royal"? And on which man and real WWII spy Bond's character is based upon?

8:44: "In the movie it is a Aston Martin DB5." No wrong, it's a Aston Martin DBS. But apart from that a very good video.

I read the Fleming novels when I was 12ish.the MOST memorable scene was the carving of the letter into his hand. That really freaked me out.

this is my favorite bond film. i know a lot of people say that goldfinger was the best but i prefer this movie since goldfinger was just about a heist. this was about a genuinely sadistic villain who's motivation was more than just to get rich. and the parkour scene is just perfect.

you do know smerch was a real organisation right? and not just a precursor to the fictional spectre

There is a mistake here, in the book he was not described as having dark hair and eyes but as having dark hair and blue eyes

+Coolguy i agree..when i remember right, it is in FRWL (and/or in Casino Royale) where Fleming wrote "blue-grey eyes"

James Bond books are way better than the movies. Much more logical, VERY few "magic" devices to help him out (flat dagger in the side of a suitcase, smaller and more flat pistol, etc. No laser watch, no wierd gizmo)

Finally I've been waiting for this forever

Actually, the assassin at Bond's back during the card game was pretty interesting. His "gun" was disguised as an ornate cane, with the stock of the cane serving as a silencer.

Hey, not all the Pierce Brosnan movies were bad. Golden Eye still remains one of my all time favorite Bond movies for a reason. Also the game was a ton of fun back in the day.

I really want to see one of these for The Perfume.

you guys really should redo the beginning of this video. Pierce Brosnan films where are mega hits. the producers wanted to bring Pierce back for Casino Royale but felt that his Bond movies were a little too light to do the novel justice. we also thought the audience would have a hard time seeing a darker James Bond being played by Pierce Brosnan. fact Pierce Brosnan's bond was the first Bond to break a billion dollars in every movie. it was over top silliness of Die Another Day which made them want to switch direction. the legal battles or all over Casino Royale and Thunderball. it had nothing to do whether or not Pierce Brosnan's films we're good or bad.

Interesting to know that thanks to Spectre this movie is technically more accurate as Quantum has essentially become the movie counterpart to SMERSH

I had not realized La Chiffre was portrayed by Mads Mikkelsen. Casino Royale was one helluva movie and I'm glad the changes were all to the benefit of the new Bond films.

It's not a "W" but the Cyrillic for "sh", the first letter in the Russian word for spy.

You guys should seriously do forrest gump.

Bit of a glaring error - In the movie Bond gives pursuit in an Aston Martin DBS V12, not a DB5. The DB5 is the classic, the DBS is built on a DB9 type chassis. 50years of difference...

Actually in the novels Bond was described as having blue eyes not dark eyes which is ironic as people complained that Craig had blue eyes. Connery and Lazenby of course had brown eyes.

Ian Fleming wrote the James Bind character with David Niven in mind

5:11 actually it was in a cane. This was one of the many ways that Fleming would introduce clever gadgets in his books. Though Q Branch supplied equipment to the agents, they weren't commonly gadgets like a cane gun or a gun hidden in a copy of War & Peace, or a knife in Urma Bunt's shoe.

any chance for a "what's the difference - death wish" I heard the book the film was based on is WAY different especially on its position toard vigilantism
