Imagine a lesser actor *cough* Craig *cough* in this role placidly blinking one moment and over acting in the next, what a bore it would be.
Craig can be the token old white guy. Really old white guy

Imagine a movie like this where Craig has to carry the bulk of the film, no massive explosions, action and chases kept to a minimum, just Craig trying to be charming. Ugh, I shudder to imagine it!

I think it'll be worse the toke white dude who gets "it", checks all the pc boxes is a "good person" who's eyes are opened by the events.

Alternatively he'll be a racist who's eyes are opened by events and heart grows two sizes.

Those are the established movie tropes for this kind of movie.

Ironically, Craig's tenure as Bond has resulted in many people wanting a black actor to be James Bond. Craig is trying to be PC with Kings , but cannot escape the fact that he looks like a thug from the far right. His recent photos underline the point and Skyfall in terms of his image is the pits.

It is Craig's tenure as Bond that has caused a lot of people making the comment how Bond is a whilte character. The past Bonds translated very well to non-white audiences. They saw Bond as British and never mentioned him being white.

And Craig called Bond "White man porn." What an F'ing
idiot.

And my wife thinks Craig looks like a white supremacist. Yet they love Connery, Moore, Dalton and Brosnan in Colombia . Craig trying to be PC is going to blow up in his face. He is the least liked Bond in Colombia. They see him for the fraud he is.

Sounds like the campus police and city police chickened out. Probably thought they were doing the anti trump movement a favor.
Or they could be agents provocateurs trying to discredit the protestors. I don't know about the US, but here in the UK, people who are politically active say that you can always tell the MI5 or Special Branch infiltrators in a movement because thay're the ones that, as soon as they join up, immediately start trying to push it in a more radical/violent direction. That way, they get to paint the movement as a threat, and justify their jobs and funding.

There is truth to this, in this case I don't believe it is anyone in trumps government cause he'd save it for "sweeps week", cause he's a tv star.
I've heard some democrats say they think it's right wings groups doing this, I'm willing to be convinced but last time I looked the republicans can't plan there way out of a paper bag, they went all out no limits to stop trump and nothing matching this came out of it.
The only thing close is the last few years with BLM, where these same kind of goons show up. It looks like someone supporting the ideas of the left trying to bring back the 60s riots to help make a point. Reports of fairly peaceful protesting until the goon squad shows up, by all accounts busses of these people come in to key areas of tension.

delegitimization could be the point don't think obama or trumps government is involved. The billionaires like Koch and George soros? Maybe, the Kochs wouldn't do trump the favor, and I doubt they have their act together enough but who knows maybe they are funding Someone who is capable of it.
Soros I wouldn't think Is this dumb, but again maybe he is unwittingly funding this.
The answer is arrest these guys and prosecute them, find out who they are and where they come from and were the money comes from, most reports say they are not local people.
this countries government federal to local has recent tradition of looking the other way when this sort of thing happens because of the violent crack downs in the past.

I'm willing to be convinced arrest them and follow the money then prosecute whoever is behind this.

It's the fact that so few arrests were made that makes me suspect that they might be law enforcement.

maybe. I assumed it was because they chickened out, or didn't want to "escalate the situation".

Supposedly some people dressed the same were arrested in D.C. are facing prosecution, if true it could help show who is behind it.
If they are cops or Feds I'd love nothing more than to seem the arrested and exposed.

If anything,SP with wannabe Bond moments showed just how out of place would Craig be in a proper Bond movie.

Halle Berry and Craig? That pairing will generate sparks. _./// even though the only thing she managed to pull off in DAD is sex scene with Brosnan,I really can't imagine her and Craig as a couple.

I'm streaming it on Rolu. Actually flipping around watching other things too, ads are boring so far and the games not grabbing us yet.

Game looks over big O :!: You are correct. Too many boring ads and at least no politics from Gag-Gag. The NFL probably told her to lay low or else. I left my SB party at half-time. Most of us thought it was a total snooze fest.
