RESEARCH #9- Casino Royale- 2005 by Martin Campbell

Updated: Sep 22, 2020


- 29 Titles are displayed throughout the title sequence


- The images of playing cards and James Bond are prioritised in the title sequence. The connotations of the cards, along with the title, show that this film will deal with gambling. The fighting, both fist and gunfights show that this is an action film, our protagonist is this man in a suit. The image of '007 Status Confirmed' shows that this 007, James Bond, has just become a spy.


- The use of fight scenes shows that this is an action film. The images of the protagonist fighting to protect Vesper Lynd shows us that this is a revenge story.


- The fast-paced action, rock music and images of death show that this is an action film, probably male-directed but not restrictive of females. Unlike title sequences in James Bond's past films that show naked women, this does not which shows a new direction for Bond.


- The 3D CGI characters effectively show this film is in the 21st Century. The lyrics 'You know my name' tell us that this Bond is different, straying from his past and reinforces the heritage that comes before him.
