Re: Bond! Bond?

Agree. I'm sure the guy's a solid actor, pretty sure I laughed out loud when he did SNL but he doesn't grab me as 007.

Like Dalton, he seems too rugged. Any manner of Nerd should be able to look at Bond and think "I don't need bulgy muscles, just smarts and a few good tricks".

I look at Dalton and Craig and think "they don't need Q, they can just punch their way out".

Connery makes horses look small, but these guys don't have his finesse or fun. Maybe it's the writing. I'm a 70's kid, so my Bond was Moore. Brosnan I loved 'cause he struck me like a more competent Moore, but all the fun.

It's okay. I finally saw all the Matt Helm flicks. Kingsman's top shelf too.
