I'm considering a move to the Casino capital of the world,Las Vegas.I wanna be closer to my family in SD...and I love Poker/Black Jack .:) It might happen in March...Anyway, I can't think of a better place to see Casino Royale except Monte Carlo, which may not have superior theaters and be a little pricey...So, anyone made plans for the special premiere?


I'll have to pick up Bacarat soon. :)

You do know there is an actual casino on the strip called Casino Royale?

Awesome. Is it a dive?

The move: I intend to do alot of weekends in San Diego where I have family and friends...and I miss it but San Diego is too expensive now and too crowded for me(it used to be a sleepy little lagoon in the 70s/80s now the traffic is WORSE than L.A. imho) and I hate California's money grubbing taxes/cost of living BS.It's a rip off. :) . I like camping/mountain biking;The grand canyon and Sedona are nearby, as is Colorado and Moab(utah),Lake Tahoe. Yes, I can imagine Vegas being tacky and depressing...I see the pros and cons Bon-son and I appreciate your input very much. :)


back to topic: a Casino Royale party in Vegas would be fun! :)

I've seen pictures of it on the internet. The AAA Hotel Guide didn't give it a very good rating. Perhaps it's a sign of things to come? :)

Looks like it might be a neat place. Go inside?

Indeed. Nothing special on the inside and the "logo wear" that so many other LV hotels offer is non-existent. CR seems to be a throw back to the "old days" before the Strip was converted into mega-themed hotel resorts and would seem more at home on Fremont St.

Still, if you ask nicely at the desk, you might score a deck of Casino Royale cards. Or, play some table games and keep a few chips as as a souvenier.
