Yes, but is he a cunning linguist?

trailer = meh.
I like the Bond series. But we already have the Borne series to take itself too seriously. I like Craig's tougher version of Bond, but where's the camp? From the trailer, it looks like there is too much "intrigue" and not enough fun. But, then again, when was the last time a trailer actually told the truth about a movie. |

The original books, and Sean Connery's version of Bond were not that much about camp.
FWIW did you guys know that Mr. Flemming has commisioned someone to write another Gond book. Its some sort of one time commemorative deal.

Is that his distant cousin--Jimmy Gond, Agent Double-O-Not-Quite-Good-Enough?
It might be a short book.

That would be an entirely different kind of movie then.
Might still have explosions, though.
