But what about Felix? Maybe he has a slight crush on our man?


Honestly, I wouldn't blame him.

Fleming actually throws in an interesting bit towards the end of one of the novels - TMWTGG I think - where Bond reflects that he and Felix have never shaken hands. Interesting.

Have your last word if you wish.

The Aston will have to come equipped with Gaydar next time :)

But then again, would you really be all THAT surprised if they do?


Oh, come off it. To change Bond's sexual orientation would be marketing suicide. They're not going to do it.

They are going to change his sexuality because Craig is already kissing another man in another film. If only he didnt kiss another man in another film I wouldnt believe this article.

I thought my Gaydar line was pretty funny, but no, you win, secret_007, you are the funniest poster in this thread :)

So then does the fact that he kisses a woman in Casino Royale mean that his character in that other film is hetrosexual? I’m confused.

Craig's character was hetrosexual in Enduring Love! His character kissed the man to save his girlfriend's life and his own.

I think it's the Infamous kiss with Capote that's setting secret_007 off, and making him imagine that that article said anything about a kiss with Leiter.

Fleming didnt describe bond as gay, he describe bond as straight.

Never read the end of The Man With The Golden Gun, then, have you?

Anyway, this thread is depressing in the most apallingly obvious sense. I feel soiled having typed this.

Oh, okay. Well, that's called acting which is something Craig is very good at. James Bond is one of the most most famous hetrosexuals in the world so why would he kiss Felix Leiter in Casino Royale? secret_007, Pierce Brosnan isn't coming back. Get over it.

I've become one of secret_007's biggest fans over the past few weeks. His posts always bring a smile to my face.

But over time it slowly dawned on me that he isn't for real. He can't be.

I am for real. I actually did believe that Craig is going to kiss Felix the next bond film but now I just dont know anymore because my friend was giving me alot of reasons why maybe its a lie. I dont know what to believe anymore. Im confused now. Can anyone please take their time and explain to me why it might be a lie.

One point: Do we even know for certain that Felix Leiter will even be in the next film?? NO! We don't know what the story is going to be and it may not even involve Leiter. So far the only confirmed cast for Bond 22 is Daniel Craig and Judy Dench :)

On occasion unvalidated rumours get used by less scrupulous journalists in order to create a story. In this case a reporter is quoting an anonymous "insider" who claims that a homo erotic subtext will be added to Bond and Felix's relationship, apparently, in order to attract Craig's "gay fan base."

This is no different from the sort of trashy glossy women's magazines that claim female celebrities are pregnant or that famous couple's marriages are on the rocks.

In short the reporter is trying to create a story out of nothing in order to sell copies of their particular newspaper, magazine what have you.

Thanks thats actually a good point. So that author made that rumor because Craig kissed another man in another movie so he can make people hate Craig more. Thats actually pathetic. I hate Craig alot but why doesnt that author just say he not going to be a good bond with his reason instead of spreading rumors? I cant believe i fell for this rumor.

Hard as it is to believe, I felt fairly sure he was for real, now I'm starting to wonder too. He would be one of my favourites too if it weren't for the rank homophobia, real or wind-up. I still think it's possible he could be for real, just very young or a bit retarded. Secret_007, what did you think of the post KBZ wrote in your style in the Vesper picture thread?

Seems to have worked.

Yep.

I hate Craig alot



I'm sure he speaks highly of you, too.
Can you think of a plausible reason why you "hate" him?

but why doesnt that author just say he not going to be a good bond with his reason instead of spreading rumors?



Because he knows he will be believed by folks like your good self and that's so much easier. You have been exploited. Perhaps there is no actual reason.

I cant believe i fell for this rumor.


I can.

Be careful of believing everything you read. Father Christmas is made of hubcaps.

You can believe this though: this really is going nowhere. Closed.
