He looks more like a football hooligan than Bond. A sad day for the
franchise.
RIP ELEGANT JAMES BOND.

Eon has pandered to the 'dumbed down' charmless 21st generation. "Let's
cast a guy that looks nothing like Bond, has none of his natural charm,
and hope the saps lap it up."
For the sake of James Bond and the memory of Ian Fleming, let's hope
not.

Kinda' cool. Looks like he'll be the only Bond other than Dalton to
finish an action scene without his hair being perfectly combed.
One more, similar to the first:

Sorry to sound like you-know-who but that guy has a great physique. Possibly
best since Connery. His hair looks darker too.

I didn't think there was any question whether they would darken his hair. I
was laughing about all the people up-in-arms about Craig being blonde. Wet
his hair, throw some gel in it and it's dark blonde. End of controversy, lol

Anyway, Craig looks great. And his hair is fine. Bring on "Casino Royale."

You're the one that turned it into a homoerotic statement, and that
Craig wasn't good-looking enough, and that Barbara Broccoli and the
head of Sony made the choice for Bond with...what was the freakish term
about thinking with their vaginas? I can't even remember now. You make
Mr. Blackwell appear hetero.

LOL. Here it is:
"Second of all, Pascal has a very singular notion of what makes Craig
sexually or intensely magnetic. There's really more punkish brute to
his look than charm and he also looks more scrappy than intense, and
while that in itself may appeal to some women, most women - if anyone
around here really knows anything about women - prefer the charm and
intense combo. So I'm not denying that Craig may have some appeal to
some women [there will always be a minority for anything], but his
appeal is far from universal or even far from anywhere near universal,
and clearly, Pascal was looking at Craig only from her own disturbed
genital perspective and not in saner universal terms."
Mr. Blackwell called. He wants his personality back.

looks of Bond's bloodied condition, it appears the production is still
shooting what French news agency AFP called a 'tough fight inside an
embassy' (possibly the Liberian Embassy in Madagascar)."

You may well have seen this before so apologies if this is repetition
but:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/film/4335052.stm
"So what kind of Bond will Craig make?
The Washington Post film critic described Craig as "the next Steve
McQueen".
"He has McQueen's way of dominating without bullying. He's also
handsome in a rugged way, thin and strong," wrote journalist Stephen
Hunter.
Steve McQueen as James Bond? Now that's casting."

http://the.honoluluadvertiser.com/dailypix/2005/Aug/08/M1200 510508080312AR.jpg
I thought Bond looked like the second photo, not some charmless rough
fairly unattractive guy like Craig. How very sad that we have to have
'anti-Bond' in the 21st century.

Great quote. I was just watching Brosnan's remake of "The Thomas Crown
Affair" a couple of weeks ago, ironically, and thought, "This is pretty
good -- but Brosnan isn't as cool as Steve McQueen in the original."
Which is of course the idiotic thing about all of these Craig bashers
here (all two of them). They don't think he looks polished enough to
play James Bond. I have two quotes:
"A Glaswegian lorry driver who mangles my character."
- Ian Fleming
"Well, we're not going to make any money out of this. How can we show a
picture which has a limey truck driver playing the lead?"
- U.A. executive
Those quotes were about Sean Connery.
