Fans are already boycotting Daniel Craig as the new bond before the movie even comes out, I mean the guys is short, blond, and I hear he smells like cheese, so who would be a good new Bond?

Brosnan had one more in him before he would start to look too old.

Owen would have been a much better replacement.

Daniel Craig is a good choice. I don't really give a crap if bond fanboys protest, because the bond franchise has been getting worse over time and needs to be revitalized... which will turn off all the fanboys anyway.

That said, I think christian bale and ralph fiennes would both be great.

How about we wait until he's been in a film before judging how good he is as Bond?

i don't think its his acting they are mad about. its the way he looks. he doesn't look like James Bond at all. all the bond guys previously have had a similar look.

Jude Law would have been good, had he bulked up a bit. He is very chrismatic, and a deep character on screen. Great screen presence.

Roger Moore was quasi-blondish brownish.


Jason Stratham (the Transporter guy) hasn't really played any characters with class, like a Bond. Too much of a tough-guy I think.

On the flip side, Ewan Mcgregor woulda been too much of a pvssy, i think.

Oh well, I guess we'll have to wait for this new movie to bomb before making any absolute judgements. We can forget about another new-Bond-introduction smash hit like Goldeneye though.

I'm with Clive Owen.. that guy's got it all for a perfect Bond. I don't even know that other guy...so I'll reserve final judgment for the release of his first movie..
