I would expect nothing less, Paco.... :wink:

Likewise, expect plenty of gloating from me if Bond 22 is an even bigger hit than CR.

Do you think Bond 22 will be bigger than CR?

Craig was listed among the sexiest men alive on People Magazine in 2006 , a paper that had Connery and Brosnan on the cover(George Clooney took the cover for 06). Craig got close, perhaps as time passes by and he's a much bigger actor, he could get stamped on the cover. It's not hard to comprehend. :wink:

A lot of people all over the world doesn't still consider Daniel Craig as James Bond...
BOND sells, NOT CRAIG
The reboot is a risky area, did Eon need to do it? NO. Did this confuse alot of people? YES.
The Bond character will always be anchored in the values of the 60s

...and that picture from People Magazine just reinforces that view for me. What a strange world we live in.

Oh, yeah. From a magazine who wasn't even read by a lot of people from other countries beside USA and UK.
Of course, the world has gone delusional.
Now when the world doesn't agree you call them delusional. Just great.
