- Stuntmen (stuntpersons?) are tough guys. That''s why they get the big bucks. It ain''t like working in a bank or a library.
Wasn''t too keen on Daniel Craig when I first heard he was taking over the Bond role. But I have changed my mind. I like him. He''s so much better than an actor like Roger Moore who I think was the WORST Bond ever. Awful. Moore never looked like he could break up a teddy bear picnic let alone kick butt like the greatest Bond of all time Sean Connery.
"Quantum of Solace"? Where did they dig that up?
You have got to be kidding. Change that immediately. Sounds like the title of a TV program about the solar system or some *** thing. Awful. - Reply to this comment
