Craig looks like Andrey Lugovoy who was accused of poisoning Litvinineko in London last year!

Did Daniel Craig's suit shrink in the washing machine or something?

Sir Roger Moore weighs in on `Quantum of Solace`

Former James Bond star Sir Roger Moore said he doesn't rate the last 007 film Quantum of Solace as highly as Daniel Craig's debut outing.

The 82-year-old told Absolute Radio's Who's Calling Christian competition: 'I enjoy Daniel Craig, I think he's a d**n good Bond but the film as a whole, there was a bit too much flash cutting for me.'

'I thought Casino Royale was better. It was just like a commercial of the action. There didn't seem to be any geography and you were wondering what the hell was going on but there you are, call me old fashioned and an old fuddy duddy!'

That is why him voted the best dressed or one of the sexiest men alive was a joke! Eon paid off the poll to get this crumb's name out there. Imagine, wearing a suit that does not fit, looking like hell with that haircut, and representing a billion dollar franchise! What the hell is EON now thinking? QOS, aka, TBM, was a massive Bond flop and this film will go down as one of the most forgettable, if not THE, most forgettable of the 22. :shock:

Those awards were waiting for whoever they cast as Bond - in this case Hobo Craig. You can't take them seriously. Even DC made a wry comment about finding it amusing that he got a best dressed man award if I recall.

By the looks of it whoever chooses his clothes for him doesn't know what he's doing(I doubt that Craig chooses his own clothes.) Both that person and Craig are a bit fashion challenged.

His 'Bond character' has his clothes chosen by him too if CR is anything to go by.

Interestingly, a few people have gotten their hands on copies of QOS. One person claimed that the store that they bought it at put the DVD's out early.Can't they get in trouble for that? I call B.S. :?

They can get into trouble. But its not really enforced unless it much earlier. Amazon ships out earlier and they was another place that shipped out nearly 3 weeks early. All of the retailers should have their supplies in stock so it is possible to get an early copy of Quark. But who want to brag about that :twisted:

Surprisingly(or maybe not...)at least one person :twisted:

These kind of things do get handed out early, wouldn't be surprised if they were handed out to, well, people of a more friendly persuasion. :lol:

Apparently the person in question has watched it already and loved it...which doesn't surprise me :wink:

I'm all for people downloading QOS.Why pay $30 for a lack of cool extras?

The sales would probably be affected by the economic crisis. Who would pay £30 for a movie, when the main character has all the warmth and depth of a brick.

Again, surprisingly, Bond fans seem to have deep pockets, as I've heard of fans buying several copies of CD's and even ones from different countries. So I think QOS will sell well among the completist/nerdfanboy segment of the Bond fandom.
