Yeah, it was entirely absent. Perhaps it was cut to more easily attain PG-13, or just to streamline that final third of the film. Either way, I want to see this scene.

It'll probably be on the DVD. The hospital sex scene probably took it's place.

[Qwerty]

I would have liked to seen it as well.

[Harmsway]

The hospital sex scene probably took it's place.

It didn't. They were *both* in the screenplay. In the screenplay, there were three separate sex scenes for Bond and Vesper.

So perhaps they left it out because the hospital scene killed two birds with one stone?

[MR. BOND 93]

Yeah I noticed the ocean scene in all of the trailers wasn't in the movie also.

Hope it makes it to the DVD though.

[Qwerty]

Would love to see an extended DVD release.

Topics merged.

There's a shot in the trailer of a seaplane moving along the water with a speedboat following/next to it. Any ideas where that fits in?

[DamnCoffee]

Theres a shot in the promo trailer of a guy sitting at a desk using a telephone which i dont think made the final cut.

That was in the film, at least the US cut. It's Mendel on the phone with Bond right after M calls and tells Bond the funds haven't been deposited yet.

[DamnCoffee]

Wasn't there a scene what was cut at miami airport, in the script it said:

M: Bond, put the phone to your ear and tell me what the hell is going on.
Bond: Sprinklers are going off, peoples running i think somethings going on here M.

and

Bond: I cant see a target
M: Its an airport, thats a target!

It takes place just before Bond gets off his place to the Bahamas.

[Matt_13]

Not much of a deleted scene, but during Bonds first conversation with M, I'd love to see the fashion buyer quip that was in the script.

[DamnCoffee]

almost forgot about that one, i thought something was missing

[stromberg]

We also didn't see anything of the station arrival in Montenegro.
There were scenes shot on a station platform (in Prague, I think) and we saw those pictures of them arrivig (Vesper in black coat and hat).

All we get is a scan of the Mill Collonade, and the next scenes is the briefing in the car...

[ckoch]

On that train trip to Montenegro when they are sizing each other up, Bond says he made a comment about Vesper's parents earlier which leads to his claim that she is an orphan. Was that line about Vesper's parents that he refers to another line or scene cut from the script?

[Matt_13]

When he says: "Vesper. I do hope you gave your parents hell for that."

[ckoch]

Thanks : )

Oooh yes! I was looking forward to that one.

Ah yes quite a few cuts in that portion of the film - we also didn't get the scene of Bond spotting Vesper waiting at a station in The Alps before boarding the train, in addition to the Bliss scene cut. Shame for the actor Con O'Neil who lost his role in the movie due to cuts.

A small geeky note of trivia which demonstrates the editing that took place in that section of the movie is that the location name "Montenegro" is flashed up as the train passes through a tree-lined valley, and then we see the train pass through the station "Chur Ost" which in fact would be in Switzerland.

They could probably release the DVD version as "uncut" adding some minor extra bits of material in, but I somehow doubt it. As with all Bonds, the final theater cut will remains the definitive cut I think, however, the cut scenes or extended scene will probably end up as extras on the special edition.

[zencat]

After seeing the movie I did notice a lot of stuff which we've seen filming but didn't make it to the final cut. Can anyone add to this list?

Bond and Vesper driving the Aston through the countryside and their conversation (as seen filming on Fifth Gear)
Bond and Vesper's naked swim
The torn ace (I may have missed this one- was it there?)
Bond falling down the steps of the casino after being drugged
The tanker driving through a plane's fuselage
The exterior of the cricket club in Pakistan
Bond's arrival on a stretcher at the hospital.

Any more?

Wow. Nice list there MarkT. Maybe we'll see these on the DVD. Hope so. I'd even like to see them back in the movie. An extended version on DVD? Yes! More, more, more! This movie was by no means too long...for me.

I especially want to see that Bond & Vesper in the Aston Martin scene.

The exterior of the cricket club in Pakistan

What exactly is this scene all about?

The good news is that Sony are big on 'extended cuts', they have done an Underworld 2 disc extended cut DVD and an XXX 'uncensored unrated director's cut'.

The bad news it that these were both 'double dip' releases - they were released right before the sequels to those movies were out in theatres. A regular DVD version with the basic special features was the first version. So it is possible that we will get a longer cut of CR...but maybe not until November 2008 right before Bond 22 is released

[spynovelfan]

I would welcome a three-hour-plus version of the film, because I think the main flaw is that a lot doesn't have time to develop: the pre-credits makes very little sense and is never explained - just a few more seconds would make it gel - and of course Vesper and Bond's love for each other happens very fast. If they added some of this stuff back in to a longer cut, we could be looking at the best Bond film ever made.

[Binyamin]

In the trailer we see Bond smacking two guards at once. Didn't see it in the film.

During the chase? That was there.

Yeah that's there. In the middle of the scene in the Nambutu Embassy in Madagascar.

The exterior of the cricket club in Pakistan

What exactly is this scene all about?

When Bond kills Fisher in the bathroom, he is actually in the changing rooms at a cricket match in Pakistan. He tracks Fisher to the match and follows him inside. The exteriors were shot at the Eton College cricket ground. As a cricket fan, I really wanted to see this scene. Hopefully it will appear on DVD.

[krypt]

I would certainly love to see an unrated extended director's cut DVD edition of Casino Royale. I hope the powers that be plan to release one.

[Skudor]

I wonder if they will give us an extended fanwanking edition of this one. I woudn't die without one but if it added a bit more to the Bond/Vesper relationship I guess it would be worth it.

I expected more from the PTS - but I think it worked pretty well as it was.

[DLibrasnow]

Extended DVD cut, please!!

I agree...I hope we get an extended cut DVD and that they don't just list the deleted scenes seperately as a special feature.
