The Finch Formerly Known As Gold

005, maybe

Dame Judi Dench assures us that Daniel Craig, the new James Bond, is ... oh, hell, just read it:

The British actress caught a glimpse of the hunky actor's impressive appendage as he was getting dressed in his trailer which was situated opposite her own.

Dench, who plays secret service boss M in the new movie [Casino Royale], told Britain's Daily Star newspaper: "It's an absolute monster! Maybe I shouldn't have said that. How uncouth of me!"

This seems rather unlike Dench, whose couth is unquestioned; according to Defamer, it's also rather unlike Craig.

For my part, I remain neither shaken nor stirred.

I guess I just don't have a dirty enough mind, because all I can think of, Isn't that the third Casino Royale movie? What's the deal with that?

Casino Royale is one of two Ian Fleming titles for which Eon Productions (the Broccoli family) didn't originally have the rights. (The other is Thunderball, which Eon licensed from the original rights holder; when the license expired, the film was remade outside Eon as Never Say Never Again.)
