billybob is correct. thread over.
Except, the novels have always been far cooler than the movies. They're grittier, and almost always end with Bond in the hospital. Casino Royale (book form) has Le Chiffre hitting Bond's balls with a piece of cane to get information out of him, followed by another SMERSH agent killing Le Chiffre and carving the "company logo" into Bond's hand with a knife. I somehow suspect that won't make it onto celluloid. However, if Craig can bring some of the magic of the novels onto the screen, I'll gladly put him on a Connery-like pedestal.
