so, after around a two-week delay, i finally got my hands on the much-awaited dvd release of Casino Royale. and i have to say, the packaging is excellent. i would've been happy with a 2-disc edition with a slipcase, but to have the slipcase embossed with a metallic sheen to it really adds some extra value to the dvd. not to mention the awesome design work on the discs. they're actually relatively simple, but it's pulled off with a lot of style and class.

so, yeah, i watched it again. by accident. sort of. i didn't plan on finishing the whole movie. i just wanted to check out the opening gambit and the title sequence. but once you start with the parkour chase, it's hard to stop. it's practically impossible by the time you reach the airport scene.

and lots of eva green. lots of eva green helps a lot.

sometimes you stumble into little joys. mind-blowing spoilers for your comics. a bit of great pasta at dinner. and a movie you really like before bedtime. small they may be, joys are joys. they glow softly, but they linger. like embers in the night. and even after they've faded out into the cold, you can still see their after-images.

it's a romantic thought, really. and no one's ever accused me of being that.

but maybe i've just never been brought up on charges.
