Re: The new James Bond

The Sun is adamant that the next Bond will be Daniel Craig. They have a piece in today's Sun that even quotes his response which is something like "I'm honoured.....etc"

I hope they are wrong as Pierce has carved the role well for himself and I would welcome his return rather than the perceived pressure to "modernise and produce a young fresh Bond fit for the new millennium" which seems to afflict so many media organisation at the moment.

Changing a winning formula is dangerous and ought to be left alone sometimes. James Bond is an institution and he is known for being suave and classy etc and slightly sexist which goes against the grain in todayââ‚ÆšÂ¬ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â‚¬Å¾Ã‚¢s plastic world of political correctness. Everyone is afraid to go against the grain!

I just hope that they don't go for the "I'm Bond, Jimmy Bond.....darlinâââ₠¬Å¡Ã‚¬Ã¢â€žÂ¢. Fancy a spin in me mowtarââ‚Ãâ €šÂ¬Ãƒâ€šÃ‚¦.?" caricature. Daniel Craig looks more like the Baddy than Bond, in my mindââ‚ ¬Ã¢â€žÂ¢s eye.
