Yeah he said he had read the book and seen all the films - as he should. Arrogant? Not really. Uninterested? Oh yes!

Thanks for the welcome, Qwerty.

I have been "popping in" to this site, every now and then for almost 3 years, but never had the time to register and post messages, so I finally did it. It's great to be here, among all the different Bond fans.

I think Daniel Craig will be a good Bond, but he won't like all the hype surrounding it. Connery and Brosnan eventually got sick of the hype by the time they made their 4th movie. Roger Moore loved it the entire time, and because we get to see Moore so much on British TV, we see that he still loves his association with the role.

Craig looked like he was sick of being Bond already. I know from past interviews, that Craig believes he is a good actor. He likes to discuss acting - the craft, the motivation. He will certainly not appreciate questions about Bond, when he is discussing other movies he is involved in. But that is part of being Bond, you are always going to be asked about it, even after your career is over! He won't like that one bit and that is why I am concerned that he may only do 1 movie.

I don't think he (Daniel Craig) came over as arrogant. It thought he was very charming and funny.

I also think the press asked him to many questions about the movie and how he's going to portray Bond which he couldn't yet answer and therefore it maybe looked like he wasn't interested.

Also the fat chick from the daily mail with the constant questions about his personal life were getting a bit old after a while.
