I am getting more and more seriously impressed the way the whole James Bond -franchise is taking. This new rugged, cool, in your face ass kicking Bond of Daniel Craig is reeeeeeally growing on me.
When I first saw Casino Royale, I quite liked it.....as a movie in general. As a James Bond film....not so sure. At first seeing it was too surreal for me.....a blond haired, blue eyed Bond who is rude, arrogant and looks like a has been professional boxer. Couple to that the fact that Daniel Craig is a pussy: hates guns, didn't know how to drive stick and got himself sunburned during the filming. Yes, there I said it. Daniel Craig is a pussy. The Bond he acts, now HE is cool. Now I know, and knew already then, that was and is the point, it just was a bit too much for me at the beginning. Now though....I like it. I like it alot.
This new one looks veeeery good. Exactly as someone already mentioned. What could be better than an arrogant, bullying Bond ? Well....a pissed off one. I just hope this will be as realistic as Casino Royale in terms of the action bits. Yes it isn't exactly everyday stuff to go Parkour on tall cranes, but it COULD happen. Now the Aston rolling over was just silly and pathetic, but I'll let that one go. I'm still holding my judgement and not praising this as "OMGZ TEH BESTEST FILM EVAH!!????=""?#". Still.....gonna be good.
Oh and about Pierce Brosnan. I think he is the best Bond there was, almost on par with him Sean Connery. And before you all go mental, think about this: Yes, the Bond films Brosnan did, were rubbish. Except for Golden Eye. But that wasn't Brosnan's fault. He was just so cool.....I would give anything, and I do mean ANYTHING to have his charm and charisma. Just his presence on the screen is mindblowing. Daniel Craig is putting on quite a show, but he just has to do a few more films before I can totally appreciate him as a cool Bond.
