Daniel Craig confirmed as new James Bond

[Hunter Rider]

You know I'm not going to jump on the band wagon and condemn this guy.I'm going to give him a chance.

I admit he wouldn't be my first choice to replace Brosnan.But I'll wait til I see some footage of him as Bond.

I guess we were clutching at straws in hoping Brosnan would return.It's just sad that his last movie was Die another day.Similar to Connery and Moore,their last Bond movies were weak too.

Btw I just heard on the news that Angelina Jolie is up for the role of the next Bond girl.Some russian agent or something.

Vesper Lynd ? What news was this on Doc ?

Vesper Lynd ? What news was this on Doc ?

It was on an irish news channel.

cheers Doc,i'd like this casting

I'd like to inhale Angelina Jolie. I think she may have healing properties.

 

[Everyman]

Look, it really doesn't matter wether you think my statement about whatever is cringeworthy. Read regwec's last post and weep.

Someone who has watched every Bond film 30 times over, apart from needing to find something better to do, is still not even a real Bond fan. He's just a fan of a watered down piece of pop culture. Now i still really love the Bond films, they're great, but i also realise that it's not the true vision of the man who created it.

Yeah, right, and the pope isn't even a real catholic, I heard that one before too...

Another reason to worry. Do we really need American stars to play Bond girls? The last two didn't work so well. I miss the unknown actresses, when you cans ee the character instead of the star.

 

[regwec]

Angelina Jolie rather outclasses Halle Berry and Denise Richards. They were both unacceptably bland; Angelina certainly isn't, and is quite capable of convincingly playing a Russian.

I imagine that this rumour is b.s., anyway.

 

[Everyman]

No, he doesn't. You can say whatever you like about Craig, but his features are most certainly not feminine.

I liked the previous picture with a gun, and yes, he looks masculine in most of his pics, but in that particular one I found him feminine, IMO...

 

[Kevin Roegele]

You can't seriously believe that Orlando Bloom would have been better.

Dude, come on, of course I don't. I'm looking at it from EON's point-of-view.

 

[the gael]

cool, a tomb raider 3 ( and you know the level of quality of the two tomb raider movies... )

 

[Kevin Roegele]

Angelina Jolie as a Bond girl is so, so obvious and unoriginal.....plus she'd overshadow Craig.

 

[Two-Face]

Jolie said she wants to be in a Bond film but I think she wanted to play as Bond if Bond was a woman, I agree Jolie would over shadow Craig as well. I would love to see Kelly Broiok as Bond girl.

 

[Timstuff]

Yah but the way he uses it is very reserved, if ya know what i mean. Can you imagine Bond doing a flying kick?

I don't want to see Bond doing bycicle kicks. But I do want to see him doing some really powerful, fast, and brutal up-close martial arts, like the stuff from The Transporter. It's been a while since I saw that movie, but I recall that Statham didn't do anything overly acrobatic, but what I do remember is that he was fast and brutal. And that's how I think Bond should be.

Brosnan seems to have had quite a bit of botox/surgery over the years, but he really doesn't look that young anymore. If he wasn't wearing hair dye here, he would probably look even older than his 52 years.

Craig probably looks older than he is, but he looked about the same as he does now ten years ago. He has one of those heavy-set faces that is pretty much ageless. Sean Connery is similar in that respect: he first played Bond in his thirties, but looked older, and didn't look drastically different when he last played Bond in his fifties.

Ouch for Brosnan.

Kelly Brook's acting is worse than Denise Richard's.

Agreed. I prefer unknown actresses for Bond girls anyway... You can see the character, and not the star.

Exactly. Teri Hatcher, Denise Richards and Halle Berry were just Teri Hatcher, Denise Richards and Halle Berry in a Bond movie.

 

[patrickbateman]

Portman for bond girl although i doubt she do it though, man i seriusly am s fixated with her for the last few days

 

[StrainedEyes]

I hope they let him keep his natural accent. He will be the first Bond with a cockney accent, instead of a prim and proper accent, or even just an american one.

Actually he's a Scouser and his natural accent is quite upper class when you hear him interviewed

But I would love to see her in a bikini without saying anything....

I hope to God that the news I'm reading around the net isn't true about 'Moneypenny' and 'Q' getting axed. That would majorly pi$$ me off.
