The latter was Daniel Craig’s debut as the new blonde, muscular and rugged Bond. It was classy. It was sexy. It was just the film to bring Bond into the 2000s. But this trailer remake—with its cheesy music, antiquated graphics and gimmicky sound effects—catapults you back into 007’s past. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3979860/casino-royale-james-bond-007/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3979860/casino-royale-james-bond-007/"},"headline":"If the Modern Casino Royale Was Made in the 1960s, This Is What Its Trailer Would Look Like","datePublished":"2015-07-31T08:42:33.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:22:50.699Z","description":"Bond goes camp","url":"https://time.com/3979860/casino-royale-james-bond-007/","keywords":["Newsfeed","movies","viral","James Bond","Daniel Craig","Spectre"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltef85792071ee603a/69885d530b72e363596e52d5/screen-shot-2015-07-31-at-4-39-21-pm.png?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Joanna Plucinska","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/joanna-plucinska/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltef85792071ee603a/69885d530b72e363596e52d5/screen-shot-2015-07-31-at-4-39-21-pm.png?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Screen Shot 2015-07-31 at 4.39.21 PM","caption":"","creditText":"","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/3979860/casino-royale-james-bond-007/","name":"If the Modern Casino Royale Was Made in the 1960s, This Is What Its Trailer Would Look Like"}}]}] ```
