We were so busy this week posting about Daniel Craig's possible shortcomings as the new James Bond that we almost forgot to mention another reason why the upcoming "Casino Royale" has already piqued our interest: new Bond Girl Eva Green doesn't only bring a resume to her role as Vesper Lynd that includes a modeling campaign for Emporio Armani, she also comes equipped with a talent for onscreen nudity shown to best advantage in her role in Bernardo Bertolucci's "The Dreamers" a couple of years ago. As Tabloid Baby puts it, "(T)he new Bond girl is an arthouse DP porn queen, showing more snatch than Guy Ritchie, making Sharon Stone look like Mary Poppins and Maud Adams like Katie Holmes." That's a lot of hype to live up to, but judging from the accompanying screencaps we think she won't have a difficult time fulfilling anyone's expectations.
