Yeah, I quite like Craig's military style haircut in Skyfall. It reminds me of the sketch of Bond Fleming had commissioned. I just thought the Arnold pic might make some people here laugh, considering the "Tintin" complaints there have been regarding Craig's hair.

[QOS4EVER]

I am shocked to hear that someone would actually like such a haircut .

[TheManwiththeWaltherPPK]

Well, it's short and tough looking but in a very British way I guess, especially when it's gelled and parted like in the Macau scenes. It's also something about how it accentuates Craig's receding hairline at the temples (like the Fleming sketch). This is going to sound ridiculous, but, to me, there is some thing badass and British about a receding hairline like that. See Ralph Fiennes and late 90s/early 2000s Timothy Dalton for other examples.

I can't stand Craig's QoS haircut. The way it is combed flat makes Craig's face look short and squat and very un-Bondian. I had the same problem with Connery's Thurderball cut/hairpiece.

well to be fair we all have our own opinions, but to say I dont agree with you is an understatement.

Whenever I watch the skyfall trailers I always imagine how some scenes would look if Bond had a cut like how he did in CR or QOS



This look which has not been used by craig in any of the films in my opinion could have been the best. To me it just screams out everything that is modern Bond

[TheManwiththeWaltherPPK]

Eek, that looks like a bad mullet. Especially with the horrible sideburns. Doesn't get more un-Bondian in my opinion.

I've always interested to see Craig with that look. He didn't suit it at the press conference, because he wasn't in shape, since it was before he started training. Maybe if he had it now then it would a lot more cooler.

Casino haircut for me all the way. Skyfall haircut in second place. Absolutely hated the Quantum one, didn't suit DC at all, and as for the slicked back look he wore at the premiere: eeesh! It made his head look huge and aged him a lot.

On second thought, I do love the combo of shorter hair and stubble he wears at the beginning of Skyfall...

Oh My God!
Its like you just read my mind

[DamnCoffee]

Deepest apologies. I didn't mean the 'premiere' I meant the 'press conference'. As far as his look goes though, I much prefer his Quantum of Solace hair.

The way he is groomed in that picture reminds me somewhat of Pierce Brosnan





In all honesty ,Anyone with even a half-a-sense of style would see how great this looks




as compared to







The premier photo makes him look suave,classy and sexy perfectly blending it with the hardness of an assasin and a spy,that too managing to incorporate a modern vibe all at the same time

while the skyfall photos makes him look like a regular from a military boot camp which is so not Bond

Oops your right, It was the press conference

QOS4EVER, watch it. You are in no position to evaluate the sense of style of others. Keep the personal insults out of your opinions.

As a literary Bond fan first and foremost, I have good reason for disliking Brosnan's overly affected hairstyle. Bond, the literary character, is not a dandy. He doesn't oil his hair and he combs his hair in a careless manner, hence the comma of black hair that falls over his right eye. As a former Navy man, Bond seems just the type to cut his hair in a simple, military manner. In my opinion, Brosnan's perfectly quaffed hair is way out of character.

......That tux looks like Kevlar.

......That tux looks like Kevlar.

I thought something similar. It looks like the material they use for Spider-Man and Batman in their costumes.

[TheManwiththeWaltherPPK]

Well, at least it's not as ridiculous as some other dinner jackets in the current Tom Ford collection.

Yeah, I never cared much for shiny suits.

[x007AceOfSpades]

One of the better Tom Ford Dinner Jackets.

It does remind me of Kevlar. I like it, it's not great, but it's nice.

[Chief of SIS]

I was merely referring to the premiere pic. I agree. That one is lovely.

For our friends in the United States:

[JimmyBond]

Do you have all of those leading to number one? If you do I'd love to get them, I could do a proper countdown for the Americans on the front page then.

[JimmyBond]

Had difficulty figuring out how to make the picture larger, but still, any countdown is going to get fans on this side of the pond excited.

They'll be released by the official 007 Facebook/Twitter feeds on a day-by-day basis leading up to SKYFALL in the United States, so I'll aim to post them daily in this thread so you can update the main page.

[JimmyBond]

Awesome, much appreciated.

Oh dear god, I think i'll have a breakdown soon. The anticipation for this film is KILLING ME!

[JimmyBond]

I nabbed the one with Judi Dench, but tomorrow I'll go for the stylish one (really, these new ones are much more stlylish).
