Bond, James Bond
Not such a bad week for Daniel Craig. It started badly, with the outing of his affair with Sienna Miller. Daniel keeps quiet, Sienna flounces off to Morocco and then pops up in Paris where she meets Jude for lunch and goes crazy about his 'closeness' to unibrowed, buxom Salma Hayek. She's definitely barking up the wrong tree there. Hayek is literally and figuratively a beard for those of the Scientology persuasion.
Meanwhile, Daniel lands the role of Bond, James Bond, serial cad and adventurer. The press might love this fact but think about who actually likes 007. Geeks, kids and old men. You know exactly what's going to happen in each film. James flirts with secretary, James gets a new brief from his crusty boss involving an evil plan to blow up/take over the world, James travels to exotic locations to hunt down evil mastermind and has a couple of detours with scantily clad women, chase scenes involving skis, planes, boats and cars, James saves the world and enjoys a Martini, shaken and not stirred. Blah blah blah. Suddenly Jude Law looks interesting.

I agree with you about Bond films. What kinds of losers have a smug British man-slut for a hero?
Nerds and geeks? They have to be almost as nerdy as people who are obsessed with talking about celebrities all the time and who actually care about actor’s private lives.
I, too, am a huge fan of Pierce. Daniel Craig is no substitute Senior Bond ... And, now, for more celebrity gossip ...
Okay, so I was telling my friend Bro that I'd recently heard that Sienna and Jude got back to together. Not news, right?
BUT, then I heard that Sienna cheated on Jude with Senior Bond. Jude got pissed and called Senior Bond on the set of his film (with Nicole Kidman) and cussed Senior Bond out.
THEN, Jude flew to LA to get a revenge booty call from Salma Hayek. Salma enjoyed little Jude so much that she flew to gay Pari' to meet him for lunch, *BUT* Jude ditched Salma to reunite with Sienna. So, Ms. Buxom went to the hotel and cussed Jude out in front of everyone in the lobby.
Juicy, juicy ... :)

Yeah bring back Shon Konery. Call th nex film "Never Play Bond Again."
Blonde........James Blonde
nice blog!! Just bookmarked! T1 Line
Personally, I was looking forward to seeing Gerard Butler (Phantom of the Opera, Dear Frankie) take on the Bond role...
I think Blonde Bond will need a magic wand
My poodle needs a clipping.
Brosnan did a good job, but having decided to replace him I'm kinda pleased they've chosen Daniel Craig... he's a good actor, might bring something a bit different to the role.
Congrats on getting on the 'Blogs of Note' list, Lucky!
I love Pierce and really thought he made a good Bond. Daniel is not James. He's more Pee Wee.. I think they made a very big mistake choosing him and I believe he'll only make one movie and they will choose a new guy. Hopefully someone better and if all else fails they can use Tom Cruise, he has a great English accent and would do wonders for the part especially if they aged him like they did for his last movie.
You know, I'm rather a fan of James Bond. Yes, I know what the plot line could possibly be but ... whatever! It's a British favourite and has been for years. You telling me that your regular cinema audience can't 'read' what happens next in a Hollywood movie?
It's just a bit of fun.
Sadly, 'anonymous' (who's too afraid to face up to reality) says "What kinds of losers have a smug British man-slut for a hero?"
Err, ever since 1953 and 21 films later ... well, we Brits do.
Can't see over-weight Arnie in the role, nor pasty-faced Bruce W. Come to think of it, even youthful Cruise is past it.
As for Craig, what an excellent choice. As Casino Royale is going to be set in a time when Bond has only JUST won his 007 status, can't really have a wrinkly playing the part, can we? Craig is perfect, now leave to poor sod alone to get to grips with his new role.
pretty intreseting take on the new bond, me being a Pierce and Gerard Butler fan.. was hoping for something better...
*off to watch Golden Eye again!*
cool blog by the way
