For the first time since the movie opened, I have found the time today to go on MI6 and read what the BOND fans think of it.... DELIGHTED to read that they absolutely LOVE IT! There is a thread about the '3 favourite scenes' and generally those scenes are - Day of The Dead, Rome, Hinx Fight / Torture scene. Those scenes are my faves too... Some also 'wax lyrical' about the L'Americain scene which I have previously NOT liked. Next time I see it, I will try and pay more attention to that scene. At all the screenings I have been to, I detect a certain restlessness in the audience during that scene... maybe that's why. Maybe I feel different when I see it at home on blu ray. That day can't come soon enough either. I am already wishing I did not have to watch the movie amongst 'strangers'.

MI6 are pretty unequivocal about Daniel returning to do another Bond too...
After reading the comments, I would say that it is 80% for and 20% against. He seems to have proved himself with Spectre.

Craig to stay for me. Definitely the best Bond. My prediction when he started was that he would do 5 Bond films.

DEFINITELY at least one more. Craig is on absolutely top form.
One of them is even talking about Daniel doing EIGHT to rival Roger. Now, I LOVE Daniel as Bond but even I think that's too much!!!
Why do they all call him "Craig" though???? His name is Daniel. Is it because they are mostly boys and we are mostly girls?

They often say Dan.
Yes, he pretty much climbed some stairs up in the repsect for some, who weren't convinced. Some really came to "love" him now only after Spectre.

The top notch acting in the Weisz/Craig/Spall 'Betrayal' is emotionally true, often v funny and its beautifully staged with filmic qualities..

This pretty much nails, what I think, too.
From MI6
I agree with all of you. This is my favourite (maybe second to Thunderball) performance ever from any Bond (or non Bond film for that matter) ever. Every little subtle thing is perfect. Every line delivered flawlessly. Every movement cool as hell. Even watching him walk in the tracking shot for like three minutes was entertaining, any other actor, other than Connery maybe, would have been a disaster. His performance is inspiration, and now I'm trying to copy it as I always have.

I am bringing over Pierce's comments on Daniel --
Here’s what former 007 Pierce Brosnan thought of ‘Spectre’
“But Daniel, in the fourth go-round, has ownership of it. He had a nice looseness to him.â€
Daniel Craig’s predecessor continued with his praise for the current Bond actor: “He’s a mighty warrior, and I think he found a great sense of himself in this one with the one-liners and a nice playfulness there. Just get a tighter story, and he’ll have another classic.â€
As for Craig’s much-circulated comment that he’d rather “slash my wrists†than do another Bond movie, Brosnan said, “I think the guy was just fairly banjaxed by playing it. By the time you finish making a Bond movie, you don't want to hear the name, see the name or have anything to do with it because you just want to go to ground.â€
Craig did make that comment when speaking to TimeOut London just four days after finishing the eight month-long shoot for “Spectre,†and he’s since clarified: “Maybe I’ll make another one. I don’t know.â€
Brosnan has hope we’ll see Craig play the MI6 agent once more: “Give him another year off here, and he'll be ready to rock and roll for sure.â€

Daniel for People's Sexiest Man Alive? Lainey thinks he's in with a chance when they announce it tonight!
She loves him right now!
"So we’re used to seeing him wear the sh-t out of a suit. But Daniel Craig in a brown leather jacket arriving at the show? Over jeans? Goddamn goddamn. Goddamn enough to be PEOPLE’s Sexiest Man Alive?"
He's so funny here!

Sad thing is, a better received film would have easily surpassed the billion. As it is, the struggle will start now. As with QOS, its frontloaded with good will and expectation. We need 300 more to rightly call it a success. That will be very tough. I have seen it 5 times now and its full of potential not used. For whatever reason. I believe, they get so caught upon their own little web, that they cant see clear anymore. I feel sorry for them. The low ratings cant be fun to see.
