Bond should be posh well mannered handsome with a lot of charme and be a icecold spy/killer at the same time. Craig somehow has this down quite well.

Nevertheless Connery was just class

In other news, FINALLY SPECTRE IS BACK. Finally they use world events in Bond movies again. Or so i've heard.


And Craig nails everything you listed perfectly, except perhaps the charm part.

Craig kills it as Bond honestly, he has to evolve with the times can't have the same type of Bond through every generation just doesn't make sense. If you don't like that maybe you shouldn't be 55 years old complaining about a movie that isn't targeted for your demographic anyway. Don't see me complaining about the 50 shades of grey movie on here.

Craig is in good shape making the stunts and activity seem (somewhat) more believable, more silent killer type makes it seem like he's had more training and more thoughtful in his approach, if he was laughing and smiling like it's a normal day while killing people that would really just point him out as a psychopath. Older bonds they close there eyes shoot the guns use the ricochet to bounce off the window and kill the guy around the corner. I'm not really that sorry about the change of direction.

We dont need a black guy playing James Bond. He's white in the books , keep it that way.

Start another series where the main guy is black.

I hate when they cast people who aren't the same race as the character they are supposed to play.

How's Craig too old??

He was 38 years old in his first Bond (Casino Royale, 2006)
He was 44 years old in his lastest Bond (Skyfall 2012)
so he'll be 47 in Spectre which is most likely his last.

Now let's compare to previous Bonds:


Pierce Brosnan was 42 in Goldeneye (1995)
and in Die Another Day he was fucking 49 years old (!)

Sean Connery was 32 in his first Bond, 41 in his last


Roger Moore:

46 fucking years old in his FIRST Bond movie Live and Let Die 1973

And his last Bond in 1985 he was 58 years old, I don't remember anyone bitching about his age.



Daniel Craig's still young enough for another 2 if not 3 Bond movies and I really hope he does another 2-3. Might not be a classical Bond, but he's a way better character than the rest imo.

So many childish remarks about Craig as Bond..

"His ears are too pointy"
"He's too old" ( <--- still much younger than other Bonds)
"he's a midget"  (<-- 178cm, average height)
"he's blonde"

I guess I value style and bad-assness over almost any other feauture and imo Craig's Bond is only rivaled by Suits' Harvey Specter.


Can't disagree with Craig being my favorite bond.

Never really was interested in Bond movies until Craig came along and gave it a different flare.

Old movies really weren't interesting to me. Casino Royale however, I must've watched like 10 times.
