James Bond actor reportedly warned by Sony executives to stop being critical of SPECTRE after he said he would rather 'slash his wrists' than do another Bond film

Daniel Craig has been warned by Sony executives to "shut up" and "stop bashing" James Bond, according to reports, after the star said he would rather "slash his wrists" than do another film.

The actor, who will reprise his role as the British spy for the fourth time in the forthcoming film, told Time Out magazine he wanted to "move on" from the franchise.

It’s all good.

People just have differing perspectives on the films. Apparently a lot of people enjoyed Moore. He starred in more Bond films than any other actor, including Connery.

I can’t speak for everyone else, but I can honestly say Mr. Dalton is the worst bond ever. Even Mr. Lazenby was a better fit and wasn’t bland as stale crackers.

RE Craig:

I don’t understand why he’s biting the hand that’s feeding him, so to speak. I mean, he’s a good actor, he’s working, getting a paycheck, with a known, popular franchise and familiar character.

What’s his gripe? He signed a contract, fulfill it, and move on.

Pretty simple to me.

I think Linc would be good in that role.

Season 6 opener of Walking Dead was interesting. The quarry scene was extraordinarily cool.

Jason Isaacs may be getting a little long in the tooth for the part, but he definitely had the Bond look...

He could be, yes.

I stopped watching “TWD”; the acting is good, but ultimately, the zombies win/will win out.

The thing about TWD is.. the OLDEST zoms are decomposing as they trot about. They will fall apart. BuT... there are always new ones.

Ammo.... that’s the key. Lots of it. And swords are back in fashion too.

Right. But everyone, regardless of how they die, will become a zombie. Unless you have someone waiting to shoot you in the head or decide to toss yourself into a volcano, that is.

Ammo or not, swords or not, the zombies win out. Unless there’s a cure, which I don’t believe there is/will be.

I strongly believe the zombie plague is caused by an airborne pathogen.

Nope.

Got it all figured out.

It was Spam. Bad canned Spam. Was past it’s expiration date; Ma Modiglio served it up at the diner, and well... things didn’t turn out so well.

This is true. Lemme tellya.
