Just... too weedy. I would have much preferred Clive Owen, despite the occasional puppy eyes, because the man can at least look smooth if he puts his back into it.
Uhm...weedy definately isn't an adjective I'd use to describe Daniel Craig. ¬_¬
Anyway, I couldn't care less about the James Bond series but I'm pleased he's been cast, if only because it might get him more attention because he's a fantastic actor. He deserves to be more well-known than he is.
Meh, I only saw him in Tomb Raider. I mostly meant his face - he doesn't have much authority, nor does he look like someone living the James Bond luxury-and-danger lifestyle.
I haven't seen Tomb Raider but I don't imagine it's the sort of film that's the best show-case for his acting abilities. I've seen him in quite a few things, I've been keeping an eye on him ever since Our Friends In The North. I honestly think he could pull it off.
But whatever happens, at least we know he couldn't be worse than Lazenby. ;)
I don't know about acting skills (he was pretty decent in Tomb Raider, actually - I remember that he imbued his character with a rogue charm that was quite endearing). I'm just objecting to looks here - he looks nothing like my vision of Bond - dark-haired, and handsome in that special way.
Boss-lady asked me to print out an image of the new Bond, and when I did, started bitching out loud. I was inclined to agree ;)
