“Daniel Craig is perfect. I really think he’s as good as Connery.”

I agree. Craig has brought a brutal streak to Bond that makes him a bit closer to the character in the books. Connery had some of that, but I think Craig is better at portraying blatantly brutal.

Now, if they could just remake the movies to match the books... (The books are nothing like the movies. “From Russia With Love” is the closest, and even then it is not very close...)

Craig actually does look sort of tough but I bet in his younger days Connery would have beat the crap out of him.

I thought Craig is a homo.

Right. After Goldfinger UA decided the franchise was all about flash-bang gee whiz effects. Worked for Moore, who is a poor Bond, but destroyed Connery’s character. I love the scene where Craig has the guy in the office and the guy says, “You’re not a double O, a double O needs two kills and you” BOOM.
