His character in the new Bond Franchise is how Bond should be played, read the books, Timothy Dalton also played a lot harsher version, just like the original novels

i have no way of describing if that looks good or painfully bad.

I've seen the trailer.

It's definitely an after pub film.
Trailer here



Go back to page 505 if you want to know my thoughts on it.

just because he is acting like in the books doesnt mean he is acting it well. Daniel Craig is an aweful actor and he shows how aweful in both Casino Royale and Quantum. i really hope the next film is hsi last as their are so many better actors who could act the role much better, Benedict Cumberbatch comes to mind.

Finally got around to watching The Princess Bride today.
I'd been putting it off for a while, as it's got a somewhat.. girly title. But I really enjoyed it. Sure it was cheesy, but it was a lot of fun and really well written. May have to buy the dvd now..

this months issue of Empire has an interview with the people currently running the x-Men movies. Ryan Reynolds is still going to play Deadpool (ill believe that depending on how popular Green Lantern is and how busy he is now with RIPD and GL2), The Wolverine will not be shit (although its now in development hell while they look for a new director), and they have a planned X-men 4 plotline which fox has approved which will mean an X-men 5 has to be made.

Agreed^1000000. Daniel Craig is awful. There is nothing harsh about the way he plays Bond.

Timothy Dalton was by far the best Bond, the only one that's been true to the books. Though Pierce Brosnan was pretty good because...well, its Pierce Brosnan.

Pierce Brosnan looked more like a Kays Catalogue model than Bond.

really surprised they didnt continue from the first film with how it ended, but this doesnt really show a lot. *EDIT* just checked the cast listing and it does continue from the first film with Sean Bean and Radha Mitchell reaturning. i am happy again


It is a fake trailer but the film is real, trailer uses clips from They. Hope the sequel's as good as the original by far the best movie of a game (if very bloated.)

i did get a funny feeling from it but im just happy they are making it with Sean. His story needs to be finished and im curious if he will 'go' to Silent Hill or if his wife and daughter will 'return' to him.

Sorry but Daniel Craig is a great Bond and I personally hope he does plenty more

As for Sucker Punch, i'm gutted they have cut the shit out of it, i've been reading about this film for nearly a year, every interview is this film is dark, gritty, pulls no punches and has a R rating, it gets released, it's a bloody 12a :|

Yer Daniel Craig is rubbish. I also think Casino and Solace are rubbish films and that this new approach to Bond films to update it and try and make it cooler has destroyed what made James Bond films so good.
