My favorite Bonds are Sean Connery and Daniel Craig. I think they are similar in how they played the character and in pesonality. I would love to see Daniel back. However, I think it depends on Daniel Craig. Wheather he wants to or not. We all know it's difficult for actors and actresses to keep playing the same character over and over. They want to move on and I wouldn't blame him. If a new Bond is named, I will be optimistic and wait to see how it goes.

Craig IS Bond. Connery may have been first, but he’s only number two in my books. Fleming wrote Bond as a conflicted, struggling, tough guy and that is Craig’s interpretation. Killing Craig’s Bond killed the franchise. Either Live and Let Die or, release the ending where he doesn’t die and carry on with another actor.

No, no, no, no and no. A James Bond "multiverse", even a light one, would be a mess. In my humble opinion, it's two ways to continue the Bond movies. 1: Bond somehow survives "No Time To Die", and we get another Craig movie. It can be done. 2: James Bond is a code name, and another 00-agent, gets the Bond name.
@There_Will_Be_BondАй бұрын
I don't think having Bond between movies makes its a multi-verse, its still within his timeline, for me it's its just painting in the gaps. James Bond has never been a code name before. And I'm 100% sure he's blown to bits in No Time To Die. Opinions vary, I welcome yours and thanks for watching

Thanks PB for opening a real pandoras box, that we need to inspect. I agree with you the NTTD failed as a true Bond. The Woke writers really emasculated Bond....carrying around a kids doll ! Really ? Flemmings books that made Bond the cult hero HE....is .....never had such a soft character. Unfortunately Craig, as good as he was, sided with woke writers to polute a classic screen character with silly nonsense to please who? Bond was accepted and grew on everyone precisely because he was this suave , masculine character with a ruthless streak and womanizing nature. As for bringing Bond back as woman, person of colour,etc.What a stupid joke. If that's acceptable can we next have a male Wonder Woman, a white Shaft (that great 70s Dark Hero ,excuse the pun). Or what about Snow White and the 7 Giants, Godzilla the Canary, King Kong the wild squirrel? Seriously what about the adventures of Felix Leighter, or diaries of Camile (QoS Bond Girl who lived on), secrets of Moneypenny for practical spinoffs that could be believable and in the correct genre?

And now u making a video for Barbara so she can get her wish again, return of craig a 3rd time.

All good ideas, Daniel Craig narrating Bond novels? Genius! I would love him narrate all the Fleming audio books. The last idea would be great as a comedy, a sort of British film industry satire. I know it's very fashionable to hate on Craig these days but I loved him as Bond. I thought all his films were great, yes, some better than others but I loved that he humanized Bond (something that Fleming did in the novels, although some don't want to admit that) some hated the fact that he made Bond a real person, with real flaws but I thought it was brilliant! However, I feel it is time to move on and have a Bond who is a little more playful. We need a fun Bond now for these times.

I like the idea of playing with Bond's emotional side. I didn't care much for him having a child and I wonder if there could be something as an AUDIENCE CUT, where we cut that whole child subplot out of the film. Sounds mean, but I'd be interested in seeing it. Thanks Alex have a good weekend. I think we'll miss Craig more so in years to come. Maybe we didn't know we had it so good.

Sorry Daniel Craig should never have been cast as James Bond. He does not fit Ian’s Fleming description as his super spy in his books. James Bond is NOT blonde hair but black and Daniel was way too short with the wrong measurements. Unfortunately he was not bond enough . But he’s more suited to other types of films . He should not return.

Thanks Kay, as Daniel himself said, Roger was also quite blonde as well. It does depend on whether you want the Fleming's Bond to be a literal interpretation. If so, you'll only get a ream of Hoagy Carmichaels from now on.

Wrong. He IS Bond as Fleming wrote him. You are clearly not reading the same Fleming I am. The character is far more than tall with dark hair. CRaig captured the essence of cold, sarcastic, a hint of narcissist, and as Bond said in the book Casino Royale, "But, he was honest enough to admit he had never yet been made to suffer by cards or by women. One day, and he accepted the fact, he would be brought to his knees by love or by luck. When that happened he knew that he too would be branded with the deadly questionmark he recognised so often in otehrs, the promise to pay before you have lost: the acceptance of fallibility." Criag played this aspect of Bond to a "T". I don't think any of the others could have done it. Falling head of heels for Vesper.
