I agree. Hopefully MGM sells and ends up in good hands.
Not bad! Looking sharp Dan!

Yes! Now we’re talking, Mr. Craig. Looking good!
He was never actually a proper Navy commander though was he?
"By now it was 1941 and, by claiming an age of nineteen and with the help of an old Vickers colleague of his father, he entered a branch of what was subsequently to become the Ministry of Defence. To serve the confidential nature of his duties, he was accorded the rank of lieutenant in the Special Branch of the R.N.V.R., and it is a measure of the satisfaction his services gave to his superiors that he ended the war with the rank of Commander."
This and his "chocolate sailor" comments in TB always gave me the impression that it was more of a cover than anything else and what he actually did in the war was more in line with the "commando types" Fleming knew and worked with.
Seems a pretty minor thing imo and it's just hard to justify in a modern context. A Navy officer serving on subs/ships long enough to be a commander and then getting recruited to be a secret agent/assassin just doesn't make much sense to me. I know obviously MI6/spying in Bond's world is nothing like in ours anyway but still, I think even in that fantasy world it's hard to justify because the Navy (and an officer as well) is just a whole different skillset to what he seems to have in the movies.
I guess he could have joined the Navy, become a commander fairly young but was bored so went for SBS selection and was recruited from there. It'd be very unusual, most of them are Royal Marines, but Bond does the impossible all the time and I think given what his job entails, him being special forces makes the most sense if we're thinking about how/why he was recruited.

It must have been the lighting on the stage at the baftas
I am too tired of analyzing craig's looks but his appearance at the baftas was pretty bizarre
He looks damn good. Dapper as hell and back to his old self! I like the haircut as well.
You're god damn right about that, BOY............:)
Personally I find it quite interesting what kind of extreme treatments a man is willing to undergo ( and obviously you on a regular basis ) of whom so many on this forum claim that he gives a shit about what people think of him or doesn't submit to the usual Hollywood procedures.
What? Are you saying you think he has cosmetic surgery, or the exact opposite?
Regarding the photos with Rachel, he looks much better than he did at the BAFTAs imho, and more on par with how he appeared when he was at the charity event last year and when he was with the footballers. The bags have disappeared for the most part and they were the noticeable negative before. He seems a bit trimmer too, so he's obviously been working out, perhaps in anticipation of some announcements on Bond and for forthcoming promotion on Kings.
His face looks like a wax work to me, the bottom half, if thats because of surgery, too much make up or whatever, I don't know.
If that's your idea of 'confirming' I would really like to know what you define as evasive/vague.
Right, he looks very happy about it rather than ambiguous. As if he knows it's gonna happen but doesn't want to publicaly confirm yet.
The journalist asks "what's next for you? Bond?" he answers "yeah" than the journalist asks "a Boyle's Bond" and there he says "we'll see"
Seems quite a confirmation to me
Irrespective, I don't see why we needed confirmation. Didn't he confirm in July of last year?
I was just paraphrasing Associated Press's title of the video. ;)
Don't think so @ggl007, she was just confirming the 007th Aston Martin out of 100.
