Craig posing as McQueen

Post by The Sweeney »

Looks like the producers are still cashing in on their main star's resemblance to McQueen.....

back in second

sorry posted a link I wanted someplace else.

Don't feel like my usual smart ass answer this morning I feel sick over the Batman shootings

Um same thing always comes to me comparing Craig and McQueen McQueen has a smile a genuine smile. McQueen has an easy coolness although to my generation he is not all that well known since he died long before most of us were born so its reruns most of us might remember him from.

Not familiar with the bike at first glance it looks a little big on Craig maybe its all the crap bolted to it.

When I look at a picture of McQueen I like the guy i get the idea he was sense of humor he doesn't take himself too seriously.

I see where everyone make the comparison Craig or whoever copied a lot from McQueen I guess Craig is the equivalent of a tribute band we get here playing casinos and state fairs

Here is cool link for one of the pics http://theselvedgeyard.wordpress.com/20 ... zaar-1965/
Someone said the cover is like mad magazine I get it didn't see it at first but see it now.

Daniel Craig looks a bit like Steve McQueen because they are both craggy and fair haired. But Craig has more of a unique face and Steve McQueen was a million times more charismatic. I find Craig a bit boring compared to McQueen but it is probably because McQueen had more memorable roles in the 60s and 70s whereas Craig has appeared in some awful bland modern films.
Bring back Bond!

Just saw the Skyfall trailer, and it's really sad to see Craig being 'Bond' (one sees the Obituary "Commander James Bond .... and then there's Craig's uncool face peeking behind the folder, which of course ruins the moment). He doesn't look very much like McQueen; McQueen had a pleasant face; he didn't look like a thug or a sourpuss.
You move very well for a dead man, Mister Bond

I'm not a fan of McQueen, so Craig and him have something in common. :wink:

I don't know, but Craig kind of reminds me of Mr. Roper from the TV series Three's Company.
