Well the new Bond is more of a typical action fag these days, but at least he's not a complete faggot like the old Bonds. The days of the ridiculous womanizing, shitty gadgets, and smug arrogance of the past Bonds is very anachronistic and cringeworthy. Old Bonds are still good for a laugh, but that shit is just fucking old. Craig is a bit too generic though, Brosnan despite being a fag was about the best compromise between old and new.

Oh and for those that talk out of their arses about how great Connery was as Bond, well just watch that faggotry in action and realise how shit it actually looks these days.

Well the good news is MGM is bankrupt and Bond 23 is on "indefinite hold".

Also the Hooligan that Mr. Felix so much like is now 42, even if Bond 23 restarts he will be on its mid-late 40's and its now "Too Old" to be James Bond so its unlikely he will reprise the role.

PS: Dalton was my first Bond so ...

Moore was 45 when he started playing Bond and 57 in View to a Kill, so there's plenty of life for the Hooligan yet! ;)

And Brosnan was 49 when he left.

Dalton did started at 41, was approach at 21 as Moore was one of the initial choices for the role, as was Christopher Lee (well that was Fleming choice) but let me put this way, Sean left when he was 41, Dalton when he was 43 and Brosman 49

Sean did "Never Say Never Again" at 53 and it shows

So of all you have Moore that stands out as the exception and not the rule so the question is if you think Daniel Craig still look the age as Moore did if Bond 23 starts shooting in 2012 and will be 44 at that time, even if he does one more Bond Movie you think he will do a 4th? And that is with a 2012 date.

Edit:
Considering that Burt Reynolds, Adam West and Clint Eastwood were offered the role and they declined it just shows the Craig was just waiting to happen in some form or another.

Daniel craig was never a good fit for bond. James bond is supposed to be sophisticated and refined. Craig looks like a monkey, he looks like a random thug bond would fight.

Exactly, he's such a boring "hard" character. Like in Casino Royale, that first scene where he's climbing some crane to go after some criminal. Come on, Bond would just get a drink and wait for the idiot to notice he has nowhere to go. Not fly up the ladder and go Jackie Chan on him.

So the older Bonds in movies are all idiots then, good thing they changed, I didn't care about Bond films until CR.
Yeah, but Vietnamese cannot into Western culture. So, moot point and all that. :M :M :M :M

Bwahahaha...you're having a fucking laugh! Connery? I'd rather watch the camp of Moonraker 100 times than that ridiculous clown with that bullshit accent. Bond movies pre-maybe Dalton are true kiddie fagflicks. Only good for ridiculing when pissed.


@ Trash

Game is better than Splinter Cell Conviction as a popamole cover shooter. It's better than the last Bond game as well.

You do know that "bullshit accent" is proper English?
Scottish actually. Which is as proper English as me speaking Russian.

So, is it better or worse than that last shitty Bond game?

Quantum of Solace was disgustingly terrible... all it wanted was to be an FPS and it sucked badly at it. This game actually does what it wants to do rather well, it's much, much better.

Read the rockpapershotgun review, it's pretty accurate.

Scottish pronounciation > English pronounciation
I wasn't denigrating in any way the Scottish accent (which is too awesome for Britain) but just pointing out that it is most certainly not an English accent. Just like George Lazenby has certainly not got a Scottish accent.

They can't understand us because we pronounce all our letters!
Yeah, but only when you don't skip the entire word ;)

Lot of butthurt without understanding here. Connery with a mouth full of marbles trying to sound English IS a bullshit accent. Get over it. Listen to him trying to seduce bitches, it's fucking painful.

It was better than Black Turd at any rate. No worse than any other cover shooter and a little more interesting with the pacing being more serene. The end of Siberia is a pretty cool level.
