Originally uploaded on my former account EditingJediKnight. PLEASE READ DESCRIPTION: I got the idea to do this trailer because in the James Bond Encyclopedia, when the book talks about "The Living Daylights" it says: "Once the decision came from producer Albert R. 'Cubby' Broccoli to recast the role of James Bond, Michael G. Wilson and Richard Maibaum began hammering out story ideas. The pair initially looked at exploring 007's roots and developed a story involving Bond as a rebellious young Naval officer, who lives his life according to his family motto "The World Is Not Enough." Broccoli rejected the concept, feeling audiences wanted to see Bond as a professional, not an amateur. He also felt it was too soon to re-launch the Bond storyline." But what if they had decided to go in that direction and also got the rights to Casino Royale? This what the film might have looked like, had it been made in 1987, I have Timothy Dalton as Bond, Alan Rickman as Le Chiffre, Carey Lowell as Vesper (I know that's not a very good choice but maybe they wouldn't have followed the book very closely), Robert Davi as Sanchez (an ally of Le Chiffre), Robert Brown as "M", and Judi Dench as the Minister of Defense (I kept her in because I needed her lines for the trailer). I hope you all enjoy the concept, I used clips from The Living Daylights (1987), Licence to Kill (1989), Casino Royale (2006), and Die Hard (1988). Thanks to SFisher1993 for the music.
