Roger Moore and Timothy Dalton played homosexual characters in films, does that ruin their credibility as Bond actors too? :roll:

I understand you not liking Craig because you think he looks unsuitable for the role, but to judge him on other roles he is taking is, quite frankly, pathetic bj.

The guy is an actor, and actors are supposed to be versatile and play different kinds of roles you know.

How do you know she'll ruin it? It hasn't been released yet. She can't be any worse than Mad Donna, can she?

Possibly. I didn't see that movie (something I share in common with 99% of the moviegoing population, IIRC).

He seems hell bent on that storyline and while trying to promote James Bond it not a wise choice. His other choices are ALL flops Sweeney! Name ONE success story......the silence is quite deafening. Bond actors do not generally do films where they have sex with teenage boys, PERIOD. All hail Hadrian?

I don't think it matters at all what role he plays outside of James Bond. The guy is an actor first and foremost. Not James Bond, and not a movie star (yet). Therefore it is irrelevant how successful his other films have been. It is no secret that Craig has not been picking star vehicle roles, similar to the way Bale has been playing off-beat roles too outside of Batman.

Bj, you come across more than anyone else on the interent, as though you have a personal vendetta, a personal grudge against this guy. You don't just criticize his looks for the part of Bond, you criticize his every movement outside of Bond too, which has got nothing to do with Bond. Actors can do what the hell they want outside of Bond. Christ, Connery played a potential child molester in The Offence straight on the back of DAF. I bet you had no issues with that, but if Craig was in that role, you would have been the first one to condemn him.

Madonna and Keyes could not touch Duffy's voice for a current 'Winehouse-like' sound, IMO.

TBM may go a long way to speed up that process, especially if the film disillusions you, of all people. :lol:

I never saw The Lion in Winter, so I guess that makes it twice for Dalton since he also played a homosexual in the film Permission to Kill.

Well BJ you might wanna have a little patience because the only thing stopping Craig from making a third film is getting killed... Hopefully not by your hand. :lol: :P
