The main reason for my recent absence is up and available for your reading pleasure: A gigantic review of the 1967 version of Casino Royale that I contributed a section to. Hope you enjoy, and make a snack before reading it, it's pretty lengthy.

Great Job! Finally someone else notices the endless rehash of the main theme. And the fact that its "parody" really is not parody and further more not funny.

I still find the Casino Royale '67 an entertaining piece of '60s weirdness that's much more fun than the '54 version.

And I love the score. The theme beats many of the Eon themes IMO.
