Daniel Graig is a good actor, and besides what makes you guys think a James Bond should look like?

But personally...I would have had Connery back as an old senile viagra-popping Bond. It could have been called...

...007 in...*cue music*...HEMMORHOIDS

The Bond films have been getting sillier and sillier. I felt like I was being treated like an idiot at the last one I was dragged to. Stupid plots, gadgets which are simply impossible and a ludicrous number of bullets just happening to miss our hero.

Anyone who gets shot at that often is really a crap spy. It just doesn't come across as exciting to me.

Buy now Pierce Brosnan should have been shot in the head at least 5 times confused

I like Craig as an actor and think he'll do a better job than Brosnan, hopefully not so sacharine. Proof, as always, will be in the pudding.

I totally agree. The original Connery movies weren't exactly the most believable either - as we all cue up a 6'2" Scotsman passing as Japanese in You Only Live Twice - but at least it somehow seemed tongue-in-cheek or just better than the last couple Bond movies where they seemed more intent on turning it into a live-action cartoon. They could make up for that by having Brosnan be 007 in the next movie, but kill him off and have Craig be the replacement for the number (but then that might be an issue with the name, since he'd have to just happen to have the same name, or change his to James Bond).

In order to prevent the next Bond movie from being total shit like the last 3, they need to definately go in a different direction, and I think Craig will help that. I think they should make it a lot grittier and realistic, in that they should take a cue from The Italian Job remake and don't use any CG effects, or at least not unless absolutely necessary.

eeek

I never thought I'd see the remake of The Italian Job being used as an example of what to do rather than what not to do.

What the fuck is the London Daily Sun? Never heard of it.



It's the Sun. It's known as that internationally, just as the Times is The London Times so as not to be confused with the New York Times etc.

Oh and here's my James Bond rant, cross posted from SGUK:

Do NOT get me started on this utter, utter bastard. If James Bond were real I would kick him in his sagging, greying ballsack. He is a womanizing alcoholic whose only function is to fuck his way through an array of dizzy twats with unlikely nudge-nudge wink-wink names with tiresome predictability.
Not only that, but the cunt is a fucking rape artist. Seen Goldfinger? Ever noticed that he tries to rape Pussy Galore in that shed? Although he addled, raddled bastard probably thought she was gagging for it because her name is Gaelic for "loads of gash".
If James Bond were real, he'd have cirhossis of the liver and the Clap. Not one woman on God's earth would sleep with the tuxedo'd tosspiece if he paid them. If only Goldfinger had succeeded in lasering off his tadger! Half the sexually transmitted diseases of Eastern Europe could have been avoided.

All I want is for one, JUST ONE of those vapid chihauhau Bond Girls to turn around after the 120 minutes of regurgitated car chases and explosions are over, and when Bond tries to Mack onto her, just turn around and go "Sorry James, I just don't fancy you." That would make the movie worth seeing.

Fuck Bond. Jack Bauer would kick the living shit out of him.

I think it's cool he looks like average joe (no not the tv show)... Like he was just a PI or something and he kinda got thrust into this job... What kind of guy wants to be an assassin? He wouldn't if he were sane.. I think it's much better this way.
