About
Casino Royale Poker Game Parodies refers to photoshops and jokes imagining James Bond villain Le Chiffre playing Bond in games other than poker in the film Casino Royale. The jokes spread primarily on 4chan's /tv/ board and are usually accompanied with a caption of a fake quote where Le Chiffre explains how he has triumphed over Bond depending on the game's rules.
Origin
On April 22nd, 2018, an anonymous 4chan user posted a still image from Casino Royale of the character Le Chiffre, played by Mads Mikkelsen, appearing triumphant in his poker game with James Bond.[1] However, the user captioned the image to reference the board game Monopoly (shown below).
Spread
In the ensuing thread, users began writing jokes imagining various children's games played by Bond and Le Chiffre, each with a caption of Le Chiffre condescendingly explaining how Bond had violated the rules of that game. Examples of different games spoofed include Jenga and Ping Pong (shown below).
Over the following days, more jokes began appearing on 4chan, this time with photoshops. Examples include a Hungry Hungy Hippos edit[2] (shown below, left) and a Sorry edit[3] (shown below, right).
The joke grew increasingly popular in late August and early September of 2018. Popular threads featuring the joke referenced the games Uno (shown below, left) and Dungeons and Dragons (shown below, right).
The popularity of the jokes on 4chan caught the attention of Twitter user @ldrinkh20, who tweeted several examples and gained over 8,900 retweets and 26,000 likes[4] (shown below).
