I hope we hear Bond's introduction... I would love to hear Craig's "Bond... James Bond" before watching the film... Remember, The Dr. No trailer showed Sean introducing himself, as the LALD trailer, and the TLD and Goldeneye trailers too.

Your not going to. This film is different. When he says it, it's meant to have an impact, not just for the sake of saying it like Broz or Moore or Laz. When he says it, it will probably end up being the coolest moment in the film, I wouldn't want that spoiled.

I don't recall it being used in TLD. Might have been in the teaser or something, but it wasn't in the trailer. The trailer has his big line as "Whoever she was I must have scared the living daylights out of her". The voice over guy says "Bond James Bond," though.

Personally, I hope they don't as it would 1) undermine the film and 2) possibly put too much focus on one line. It's a very notable line, but Dalton did it right. His was more of a throw away while most of the others were big show stoppers, especially Brosnan who pulled a 5 second pause between the "Bond" and the "James Bond" The impact of Craig's line would be lost too. It would just be a mistake to have it in the trailer.

I'd rather they show the clip of Bond ordering the Vesper, a couple Fleming lines would be fantastic, and I'd also like more into the casino aspect of the film rather than just random blowing up. That was the problem with the teaser. Great teaser, but then you get to the end and it says "Casino Royale" - that's when you say... Casino? Then they throw in (and it seriously looked thrown in) a promotional shot of Craig chilling out at the poker table just for confirmation. Good stuff.
