Are we just going to ignore the fact that Daniel Craig said "Oh, fuck me." so quietly and smoothly that it didn't get bleeped on national television?

[@JSephH76]

Came to say the same thing

Reminds me of a movie about a Dragon dying and going up to become a star. It was with Dennis Quaid and Sean Connery as the Dragon. It was "Dragonheart".

I love how Daniel actually gave some thought to answering every question. He feels so genuine and down to earth, with no 'I am a big star who you should worship" attitude. ❤️👏🏼

[@d.263]

He's a Pisces. We're (usually?) considered genuine, sensitive, and thoughtful. We should all aspire to Daniel's level of lovely 🥰

[@jamiejones7325]

As woman, let alone scientist, evolutionary biologist/anthropologist it saddens me to no end having witness how emasculated you men boys have become, zero self respect pride dignity ‘fanatic’ over mangina woke like this. I hope none of you supporting them and their misandrist FemiNazism have sons, or we daughters for that matter. Where have all the real men gone. Fact is there hasn’t been positive masculine role models for generations now and this site and emasculated commentary exact proof I could reference in my university classes. Sad though.

"Joan Armatrading - Love and Affection" Excellent answer.

[@wrenlinwhitelight3007]

I love how at 3:00 he starts by saying "nothing" which is most likely reality - but follows it with "we become stars!" and everyone's like yea cool okay!

[@marigoldruff]

Love and Affection by Joan Armatrading is truly one of the most beautiful songs ever written. So impressed he picked that song.

[@Thats_so_maha]

It’s insane how I don’t know him personally but you can FEEL how genuine and kind he is! Mr Graig much love from Morocco!

[@d.263]

I can't believe he named Love and Affection by Joan Armatrading!!! I was just listening to that song (for the millionth time) yesterday. Obscure and lovely choice. 💜

[@DorothyPotterSnyder]

Can I just say that Daniel Craig's pocket square is a master touch.

[@batgurrl]

I adore this segment. Would love to see more of them. Daniel Graig seems to prove they are NOT given the questions ahead of time😂

[@isaiahayers1550]

True, and yet, they're the same questions to everybody who gets this Questionert. Perhaps he just doesn't watch the show, or they don't know that they'll be asked ahead of time.

[@ross-carlson]

@@isaiahayers1550 Of COURSE he doesn't watch the show/segment - this would be worse if he did.

Mentioned Joan Armatrading! Anyone remember her? One of the greats rarely heard about these days! Good to hear her name, Daniel!

[@betterdays105]

One of the best. Seen her at least once a decade beginning in the 1970's. Last time City Winery NYC in 2018.

I love that he said stars. I've always told my kids when we die we 5hen go into the stars. Their granddad died and I wanted them to know they could still see him.

[@Spectre124]

ok... He's so freaking funny and I had no idea. I knew he was charming, but some of his answers had me rolling! That last answer was comedic gold. LOL😂

[@marydonohoe8200]

This guy is heavy duty. The most amazing thing for me about this interview was the fact that when Stephen asked him about the most dangerous animal, my immediate reaction was the black mamba. Then about five seconds later he says it. But there were more-BLT, Indiana Jones #1-weird. Maybe it’s generational. 😉🙏🏼💥

[@isaiahayers1550]

Do you feel like Raiders holds up? I watched it for the first time a few months ago and thought it was kind of awful. There's some good comedy here and there and some decent action sequences, and a wonderful score, but there's also some bad acting, bad dialogue, cheesy moments, bad dubbing, etc.

[@jlt131]

@@isaiahayers1550 the bad acting and cheesy moments are just par for the course in 80s action flicks, no?

[@dee_dee_place]

Of all the people who have been asked these questions, I answered the most in line with Mr. Craig. My favorite action film is "The French Connection" with Gene Hackman, hands down.

Daniel Craig is probably THE personification of an actor, because on screen he is the "loudest" and most present and confident person in the whole movie when irl he's the exact opposite... Well done for staying humble and not being a di*k! Keep it up and thank you so much for all your movies!

[@ninajohnson6578]

[@chrisl418]

There IS something after life...I know because when my Dad died end of 2020, I could feel him approach from the other room, pause in front of me then move on through the wall at the end of the livingroom. My sister came out from the other room then, and said I should probably come to the other room. I knew Dad was gone, of course, but my sister told me she thought I should come in to say goodbye. Later she told me, "He was still alive when you came in." I didn't refute it at the time. The night after his memorial service we were staying out in Wisconsin at an Airbandb (spelling?) as Dad had wanted to be buried in his distant home town. I told my sister that I'd known Dad was gone because he'd come to say goodbye to me before he left. I told her in more detail than I wrote the above. It was probably the greatest gift Dad could ever give me as I'd lost most of my faith after some rough life experiences. How Dad knew I would sense him there...maybe he didn't know. But I did and just as my sis knew when he was gone, I also knew when he was moving through the livingroom toward where I sat, paused then went on his way. He wasn't just my Dad. He was my friend. I miss him so much. I hope to see him again when it's my time. Since I had a heart attack a month ago, maybe it won't be so long. I'm not afraid anymore.
