    Well, that's no surprise, I think. QoS left me with something of a vacuum: I simply don't know what to expect or what not to expect. So I just hope that since Mendes is nothing like Forster, Bond23 will be sufficiently different. I'm at least as excited as Dan. ;-)

    DC needs to get that line on Twitter ala faux-Connery style

    Well, Craig has every reason to be excited, the Bond series never had a director as good as Mendes. I am certain he'll deliver an amazing movie.

    No need to include quasi-swearing in the thread title, @Risico007 - thanks for posting the thread, but please don't title one as such again, cheers... :)

    At last someone speaks! It feels like we're finally getting closer now which is great, here's hoping for more over the coming month.

    Craig should be pleased with Mendes, he should do a great job and guide a great film to fruition. Looking forward to it and all Craig's (four) films due out this year.

    I have never seen Craig swear that much in a short interview. He should be excited though. He and Mendes teamed up when Mendes helmed Road to Perdition, so Mendes knows how Craig works as an actor. This makes a film all the more different when the lead star and the director are close, because it makes the grueling process of filmmaking easier and less stressful. Hopefully Bond 23 takes a break from Quantum for a while. I hated Quantum of Solace for its utter confusion and @$%# camera angles(am i right?). Bond 23 needs to be new, fresh, yet as exciting and brilliant as Casino Royale.

    Wow, what a badly over-written interview. Someone should tell the writer that if you have to work that hard to sound cool, tough, and interesting then you're trying way too hard.

    Funny the way Craig comes off in that interview - I've often heard about how gregarious and charming he is, with a "giggly" sense of humour (which seems to send female interviewers into fits of happiness). I'm thinking the interviewer tried to paint a picture of what he *thought* people wanted to hear about Craig.

    It seems the interviewer panned 80 camera angles around Craig, appearing to be OVERLY interested in him. Thank God the interviewer told us when Craig saw a cat. I wouldn't have been able to sleep through the night without knowing that.
