Bigger mistake than Dalton was.
This new Bond prospect, Daniel Craig, looks more like a Bond enemy, some cold German corporate militaristic fiend.
Here's the new Bond:

I'd heard Christian Bale was considered. Originally thought it might work, but I just haven't seen a single photo of him where he looked suitably menacing. |

Put a tuxedo on him...
Not the best candidate either, but better than whatizname. |

Bale could do it. Didn't you see Batman Begins?
I've been rooting for Clive Owen ever since Croupier came out. Craig will be as big of a mistake as Dalton. I only hope they make him dye his hair.
And have you had a look at the plot outline? The big threat is a no-limit game of Texas Hold em?
There just isn't enough time to right all the wrongs in the world, is there. |

That Craig bloke was the yaarpie villain in Power of One (1996?) - you'll recall the scene:
"Hey, kafir-lover! You know what 'PK' stands for? Piss-kopf... piss-head."
He's popped up on a few British productions in recent years, nothing memorable.
Ewan McGregor, anybody?

I could imagine that guy that was in "Closer" and "King Arthur" as Bond. |

At least Bale looks like a good guy.
The others look more like villains.
Dalton was the only Bond who seemed to have a dark, nasty edge, IMO. And he was the worst Bond. |

Clive Owen was the only suitable choice; anyone see him in "Gosford Park"? He had a lot of Roger Moore and just enough Connery to fit the bill.
I will reserve judgement on the latest bond, but none of the Bond films since '77 have been impressive. |

Bond is back . . . and he's blonde!?
I will wait till the movie comes out to see how well he does. No point in bashing him now. |

sounds like they're taking it back to the original novels- sounds good to me. Casino Royal is a real eye-opener for anyone used to the Bond films- it's very dark and sadistic. Bond in the books is not a particularly nice guy. |

There is no way in hell that Dalton was as bad as George Lazenby. No. Way.
#1)Sean Connery
#2)Pierce Brosnan
#3)Roger Moore
#3)Timothy Dalton
#5)George Lazenby
I figure that I have to at least make it a draw between Moore and Dalton, since Moore had so many tries at the role. I've just always hated him. But Lazenby was definitely the worst ever. |
