Bond hates guns?

New Bond: I hate guns By This is London 25 October 2005 Daniel Craig will have a problem playing the new James Bond - because he hates guns.

The actor will wield 007's famous Walther PPK in the movie Casino Royale.

But he revealed in OK! magazine: "I hate handguns. Handguns are used to shoot people and as long as they are around, people will shoot each other.

"That's a simple fact. I've seen a bullet wound and it was a mess. It was on a shoot and it scared me. Bullets have a nasty habit of finding their target and that's what's scary about them."

Nor does the 37-year-old share Bond's love of Martinis shaken and stirred.

"I love a Martini straight up. I don't think anybody makes a Martini stirred any more," he said.

Craig was unveiled earlier this month as the successor to Pierce Brosnan. He will play a tougher, grittier 007 in Casino Royale, which is based on Ian Fleming's first Bond book.

Indeed. Edged weapons are often messier and more painful than bullets.

I see he didn't decide to turn down the role on principle. License to kill. "Maybe that's a bad thing".

Okay. Let's let the terrorists win. We'll hit them over the head with a nightstick.

The previous Bond, Pierce Brosnan, couldn't drive a car equipped with a stick shift. Now we get this weenie. Sheesh!

"I hate handguns. Handguns are used to shoot people and as long as they are around, people will shoot each other."

Do you think he has personal security people around him? What would he do if looters showed up at his house? What if nobody answered his 911 call?

It's too bad clueless people think they can just eliminate handguns by passing a law. Of course he didn't say that so I guess he's counting on magic pixie dust and Bond's magic wand to eliminate handguns. After that he can fix world hunger and deal with that nasty AIDS problem.

Sometimes the broad side of the barn is safe!

You gotta do the "Texas sharpshooter" trick. Shoot the barn four or five times, THEN draw the bullseye. ;)

""I hate handguns. Handguns are used to shoot people and as long as they are around, people will shoot each other. "

I guess you can shoot people with shotguns or rifles if you prefer those, but they are cumbersome to carry all the time, and tough to conceal.

"That's a simple fact. I've seen a bullet wound and it was a mess. IT WAS ON A SHOOT and it scared me.

REAL guns using REAL bullets?

What kinda film was he doing? SNUFF movies?

Professionals in the film industry use BLANKS and have special effects crews to simulate action scenes.


Methinks this actor is improvising his lines, to put it kindly.

I can't wait for the 3rd season of Entourage. Ari is the man, but Drama kills me.

As for our new Bond, shut up and ACT!

I think it's time for Sean Connery to remake thunderball again. Never Say never again was a little too long but Connery was great as was Bassinger.
