Debates over the next Bond being black, bi, or female will have to wait another film. It looks like Daniel Craig isn't giving up the tux quite yet.

Good god he is a horrible Bond. The worst one. He was only good in Casino Royale because he was different, but it never went anywhere after that.

It's too bad. Worst bond by far, doesn't want the role and is totally willing to half ass it for another pay day.

I like Craig, but I wish they'd get rid of this new continuity and go back to the loose old one. I hated Spectre. Worst Bond movie ever all because of that stupid and cliche twist.

I'm all for Adele doing another song. Skyfall is one of the best Bond themes. She has that old school classy feel reminiscent of older Bond theme singers.

nah you're not.

of course, it helps when you know that the actor is only performing a role through a script and has no say in how the actual movie turns out.

Not really...as others have pointed out Craig and the on set drama that happened with Spectre is well known. He out right hates the character and you could tell the whole movie. It was Blade 3 levels of sand-bagging.

Hasn't he pretty much said from day one that he's not a fan of the classic Bond? Or is that the screenwriter? (I forget the name, but it's been the same dude since The World is Not Enough.)

would change even if he considered bond his life's role and could die a happy man if he never played another character again aside from "maybe" smiling a bit more throughout the movie(if the director allowed him to).

He did however give a subpar performance as the Bond character in the film. Easily his weakest performance of the four films.

That wasn't really what I was saying though, just thought I'd make a point of it.

Why do people say this. It doesn't mean his movies are good. His movies are basically Jason Bourne movies. Which doesn't mean they are bad, but I and many others want James Bond movies.

Craig's movies got worse as time went on with only one film in the top half of bond films.

Also Dalton was much closer both in looks and personality. People that parrot this Craig is the most faithful haven't read the books.

He did go on record saying he didn't want to play bond again and then come back and half ass a performance for a paycheck resulting if not the weakest bond movie ever, certainly close.

I agree that "I am your long lost brother who hates you and orchestrated all your pain because my dad loved you and that's ok because you're some new cringey unbond that's won't kill me because you know longer care about queen and country, booze or womanizing and run off with whatever piece of ass youre able to get at the end of the movie" is much worse than his acting.

Day of the dead scene was pretty cool though. Too bad it was all downhill from there.

Even the books weren't as dark and gritty as the Craig films. They're more realistic, but they still have over the top moments or characters. In Dr. No Bond battles a giant octopus.

Even Dalton's movies, which were also darker and more serious felt like Bond movies. Even License To Kill where he goes rogue and is just a revenge movie still had the Bond charm. Craig's Bond films aren't a whole lot different than any generic action movie of today. The only one that felt really Bondish was Skyfall.

One of the few things I liked about Spectre. He was a nice callback to old school henchmen. Too bad he's wasted like everyone else in that movie.

Sure. But movie Bond also always reflects what is popular in modern cinema for action movies. For Craig it has been gritty espionage films for the most part.

I think Spectre was their attempt to try and make something more like an MCU movie with everything being connected and personal along with a bunch of nostalgia bait but it didn't work.

Mr. Hinx was the best part of Spectre by far. As ridiculous as his survival would be, I don't think I'd mind seeing him return in another Bond film. Hell, if they rebooted the series, I'd be all about letting Batista return in a new continuity as the same character.

I liked Quantum being SPECTRE. I didn't care for the retcon of Silva working for Blofeld or Blofeld being Bond's brother. The Silva retcon makes no sense as Silva was a suicidal ex-MI6 agent who only wanted to kill M. Bond could live or die as far as he was concerned.
