Films today are ' crap ', Dustin Hoffman complains... from his press junket for Meet the Fockers.

Hollywood Reporter reports on the new James Bond film:

The 21st James Bond film has a title: Casino Royale , which also was the title of Ian Fleming 's first
James Bond novel, published in 1953. The novel was adapted into a 1954 television show and Columbia Pictures' 1967 spy spoof Casino Royale , which starred Peter Sellers ,Woody Allen and David Niven . But because it was the only Bond novel not sold to Cubby Broccoli's Eon Productions., it never became the basis for one of Eon's long-running Bond adventures. In 1999, MGM acquired the title and rights in a settlement with Sony. Martin Campbell , who directed the Bond film GoldenEye , is on board to direct. No decision has been made yet regarding casting for the role of James Bond.
