Daniel Craig laughed off a question asking him who he would love to see play James Bond next.

    I just want James Bond to be fun again. Casino Royale and Skyfall are absolutely amazing, but the other three are HUGE stinkers. Even when past James Bond movies sucked they usually were super fun to watch, like A View to a Kill or Die Another Day. Quantum of Solace, Spectre and No Time to Die are easily the worst James Bond movies because they suck and have NO fun in them.

    I’d like to see period adaptations of the original books. Do it as a streaming show, 6 episodes per book or something like that.

    Some of the movies have been pretty close. Dr. No, Goldfinger, From Russia With Love, Casino Royale…

    Others were LAUGHABLY off the mark (cough) Moonraker (cough).

    Can he put in a good word for me? The world needs a Bond that’s an overweight but otherwise average-looking guy with an American accent, right?

    It will end up being someone lousy. The Bond franchise is like Star Trek films. You get good bond/lousy bond/good bond cycles over and over. They’ll go for someone pretty, it will flop after one or two movies, and then they’ll hire a good actor again.

      Dalton Good
      Moore Bad
      Lazenby Good
      Niven Bad
      Connery Good

      Does not compute.

        • Connery good
        • Lazenby awful
        • Moore good
        • Dalton bad
        • Brosnan good
        • ???
        • Craig good

        I don’t really count Niven and I can’t explain the gap between Brosnan and Craig. Maybe it has something to do with switching on the superconducting supercollider. I’m also still disappointed Halle Berry as Jinx didn’t get a spin off movie.

    Probably some female bond, fighting male privilege. Just looking at our current trends, it seems likely. :)

    If it’s not Lashana Lynch, then it kinda undermines half of the story of the final movie.

    Not to say studios don’t love ruining their own stories…
