All I can really add is that I saw Casino Royale on Saturday and I was greatly entertained and impressed with Daniel's performance, and the entire movie itself. I want to see it again, and I will buy the DVD!

I did venture over to that silly Craigisnotbond site and those kids are really happy that due to their 'boycott' :) that is the reason why Happy Feet narrowly beat CR by less than a million dollars at the box office. I hope they are so elated by this pitiful acknowledgement. But they will feel stupid once the worldwide BO goes over $300 million.

:P


Yes, and the fact that Happy Feet could run more viewings since it's running time is an hour LESS than CR. More shows = more $. And Yes, the total and long-term gross form CR will definately shut the nay-sayers up.

I agree with you regarding Craig doing a great job with Casino Royale. An outstanding performance (easily the best debut by a Bond actor in the series) that will go down as one of the all-time great Bond performances.

Also, welcome to the forums. :)

I still remember Craig turning up for the press conference in London with all the world press there weraing that life jacket. :P





lol, I dont understand how a guy can get totally blasted for using safety procautions :) and i bet if he wasn't wearing the life jacket the headlines would have read: "Big head Bond doesn't use safety rules" :P

I have to agree about Fleming's Bond. He's not some working class brute. There's also, in the movie, Bond enjoying killing. Go find the novel GOLDFINGER. On the first page Bond is staring into his drink contemplating the men he's killed. "he doesn't enjoy killing. it's his job and he does it prefessionally."

what ha sth enovel goldfinger got to do with the novel CR

the CR novel is the one you should focus on since it's the one the film is based on


this is a description of bond from the book Cr

'with the warmth and humour of his eyes extinguished, his features relapsed into a taciturn mask, ironical,brutal and cold'.

Daniel craig nailed it

Agreed! I think Mister Craig became quite the Fleming student during his preparation.

So that scene in CR of him looking at the mirror and drinking scotish tea like it

I though he did an amazing job, i got sucked into the whole Bond franchise and this movie by him somehow and im slowly catching up with the whole movies etc!

But yeah he was amazing and there is just something about him he played his bad assness and his vunerability so well as well as his other emotions. He was GREAT!

And all those SAS/SBS guys had one on, also. Craig's just stood out because he was wearing a suit.

I enjoyed DC as Bond myself. He displayed loads of emotional depth and was good at all the stunt work as well. I don't think him unattractive, in fact I think he's rather handsome. I just found my new favorite actor.

Daniel Craig reminds me of Timothy Dalton, and not in a good way!Remember when Dalton did The Living Daylights? Most liked the film,but what happened when LTK came out!Craig's next one is crucial, if it's a bomb I don't think he'll be back!

Ah I'm afraid that Craig doomsday predictions expired in 2006. You may be interested to know that TLD barely beat out A View to a Kill at the box office, and the reaction was nowhere near "most liked the film". Craig on the other hand just starred in the franchise's fifth most successful movie of all time, it was the critical smash hit of the year, and scored numerous awards and nominations. $600 million worth of people are foaming at the mouth to see the next one, the chances of it being a bomb are about as likely as George Lazenby making a comeback.
