The fellows who produce the movies in the Bond series acquired rights to
all the original Bond books except for Casino Royale, which had previously
been acquired by someone else.  That's why Casino Royale is not a "regular"
Bond flick.  It was done as a put-on, but it is certainly no further removed
from the Fleming original than many of the later Bond flicks (which doesn't
say much).
