Most professional.

He was a big Bond

He was different, like any other Bond actor.

casino royal was literally his best
everything else was shit

He was shit

Only better than Lazenby

>>72020990
I liked his Bond tbhwyf
>>
I liked him in Casino Royale.

In the rest of them he seemed bored, washed up, and generally unemotive.
>>
>>72021791
>>72023418
I liked him a lot. He seemed smooth enough, but rough enough to carry himself in a confrontation.
>>
>>72020990
He might have been good but the whole franchise went to shit after Brosnan.
>>
I liked him a lot, Casino Royale was his best for sure, none of his other movies quite captured the greatness that CR did but they were all still decent

Casino Royale 9/10
Quantum of Solace 7/10
Skyfall 5/10
Spectre 2/10

More like:

CR: 8.5/10.
QoS: 3.5/10.
Skyfall: 7.5/10.
Spectre: 1/10.
>>
>>72023716
I'd like to know this too. From what I've read (haven't seen it yet), Man from Uncle was recived fairly well over here, without being AS good as CR. But there must be more than one movie; it's been 10 years after all.

CR was excellent but the rest was shit

He is good, but being forced to play a role he fucking hates and doesn't want to play anymore is making his acting shittier.

High school ratings.

They got a great actor like Waltz to play easily the most beloved Bond villain and somehow they managed to completely ruin it.
Fuck that movie.

My friend

>>72020990
He was the Bond franchise's reaction to Bourne and Hunt, both of whom made the old character look pretty stale.
He did a great job revitalizing the whole series and making it seems less crusty.
>>
>>72024742
The only good thing I can say about Spectre is that Waltz's Blofeld has the coolest appearance of all Blofelds, specially one he gets his trademark scar.

QoS is a decent movie tbqh some really good action scenes it had the potential to be great if not for the headache inducing editing

Aged like milk.

nah, he suffered the brosnan curse
start off with a god tier movie and then progressively get worse

>not liking fun cheesy bond movies

>>72026462
the scene at the opera in qos is hilarious, the editing is a clusterfuck of steven seagal cuts and some pretentious 17 year old trying his hardest to make something look like deep film-making
>>
>>72020990
No.
>>
>>72026657
yeah that is probably the best example of the bad editing, i used to have a webm that i lost and people were shocked at how horrible it was.

seriously you couldn't even tell what the fuck was happening

>During shoots, Craig would go out on little shopping trips. On one of these trips he found some gloves, brought them to director Sam Mendes, and said he would like to wear them in a scene.

"And Sam Mendes at this point was beyond caring and was like, 'Whatever yes, Daniel, anything you want,'" Lyne said.

>But the big problem came during the editing process. Craig had worn the gloves during a scene in a casino, but later in the scene, an enemy tries to shoot Bond's gun, but can't because it's only activated with his fingerprints. In the editing room, someone spoke up according to Lyne, and said that this didn't make sense. If he's wearing gloves, how did the gun recognize his fingerprints?

"Sam Mendes is sitting there going, 'Oh shit,'" Lyne said. "And then producers start working out what it's going to cost to reshoot the entire scene because he let Craig wear these special gloves he bought ... this figure just balloons to millions and millions for this single scene. And they figure out they can't afford it."

So, they had to digitally remove the gloves from Craig's hands. That's why they look so weird if you watch the scene.

Best one since Connery. Anyone disagreeing is likely either a nostalgia Brosnanfag or a contrarian.

this, though I still prefer Lazenby because at least he looks the part

Instead Bond runs away with some useless Frenchie, fuck this.

>>72029191
Ehh she pretty much friendzoned Bond (a first for the series, she seemed traumatized by her near rape that Bond was like OK and finally Bond was trying to come to his feels about Vesper. That was one time deal and honestly she was one of the worst Bond girls not counting Haile, Denise, Kim Basinger or Morgan Fairchild combined.
>>
>>72030760

Funny how the traumatic experience was exactly the reason why he didn't fuck her, but in the next movie he sneaks up to a rape victim and a prostitute in a shower.
>>
>>72020990
Bland, dead eyes of a shark. Boring monotone delivery.


I'd say he played a cold-blooded killer perfectly
>>
>>72031203
Which is what Fleming was going for.
>>
>>72031230
Yeah. I mean, I loved him as Bond, don't get me wrong. He played the character perfectly, so he was great.
