I don't know about Craig as Bond. Don't get me wrong I like the guy as an actor.(i.e. Layer Cake/Munich) He (Bond) is so moody and seems to hate what he does as the character, and I just don't think that is what James Bond is about. In the older films the character loved his work and the perks that went along with it(Cool Guns, Gadgets, and Beautiful Women of course), and that is what made me want to be him growing up. Craig some how makes me not want to be James Bond, he gets beaten up a lot, every chick he sleeps with dies and he has no gadgets(not to mention that scene in the Casino Royale with the rope and the chair…just disturbing! I just don't like the darker tone I guess because the plots are still so ridiculous, it just doesn't seem to fit. Glodeneye was the last Bond film that hollywood got right, in my opinion. It feels like "The New Bond" franchise is just ripping off Jason Bourne.
Is it me or James Bond just not fun anymore?

I'm really excited by this. Is anyone else thinking this could be the first Bond film nominated for a Best Original Screenplay Oscar?
