This but with Datlon
I'd agree but from what I've read on here previously there's a lot of love for the SF PTS - which for me is one of the worst most plodding action sequences in recent Bond history- and there's a lot of competition.
Very well said, remember goldfinger opening bond changing from casual to white Tux.
Maybe Craig is not best suited to a suit? He often looks like a bodyguard/bouncer esp with his overly cropped hair and pumped physique. I'm sure it could have been managed so he looked more suave and Bondian but they have often got it wrong unfortunately. I know it's supposedly 'correct' but the short trouser legs that reveal too much ankle and sock just look wrong to me. Also the fabrics seem a bit too rigid. You don't get the sense the clothes have been made for actions sequences - they look more off the peg.
I guess his height probably doesnt help. A taller actor would probably look better in a tailored suit -
Simple matter of proportions. He carries the suits well in stills but less so on screen. He's better suited to casual wear. Or Maybe he just needs to go to Savile Row.
And maybe Tom Ford should stick to directing movies?! ;)
Whereas compare his suits in QoS to that of the later ones, you'll find that the 2008 equivalent of his tailoring is terrific. Hell, when Bond arrived in La Paz, it screamed cool right to my face. They should retain the measurements taken during QoS, because the SF and SP suits look laughably abysmal.
Agreed in the cheap motel scene with fields with sunglasses one of the best fitted suits of Craig era.
Filming finishes mid-December. Half of Hollywood is in that film, surely he's not in nearly as many scenes as a Bond film.
Considering these are photos of him literally filming for that role I'd imagine that's the case.
(Apologies, I don't mean to direct the tone of that response entirely at you. But, I'm just rather sick of this every time there's a new photo of the man.)
I don't look like my 9am office-dressed self when it's 6am and I'm headed to the gym or when it's 11pm and I'm getting off an airplane from another continent, either.
And in this case, it's just extra comical. He's supposed to be playing some jaded, hard-boiled detective who's probably just this side of depression and drinks like a fool. These photos are Daniel Craig actually, literally, in costume for that role.
It's like if they were making a Tintin sequel right now and released this as a teaser image...
...half the internet would say "Oh heavens, he looks awful! Is James Bond going to be a CGI character in the next film?" and the other half would say, "No. Wrong. A bearded and long-haired Bond? What does Craig think he is, Lazenby at the OHMSS premiere?"
I kid, I kid.
But seriously. We know what he's going to look like.
He's going to look like James Bond.
Have to agree here. Bond for the most part should always be looking on point in a suave suit. Just not in really tight suits. Class and panache. That's how James Bond should be presented.
Here here. Having seen QoS for the umpteenth time recently I've come to realise that it's not even the shakey can that's even an issue. It's the editing that's horrendous but still, the action is far and away superior to the action in SF and SP. Even Bond's fight with Greene is underrated imo.
THE best.
PTS in Skyfall is still one of my favorites; lovely, so well done.
I am all for a great PTS or other sequence) in Canada. Let's hope that comes about.
There. Fixed it for ya. :) Eh?
Do the filmmakers of KNIVES OUT want DC to look like 007 in their film? or a hard boiled private dic?
DC will have 10 weeks to lean out for Bond.
If we all knew about super-compensation training we would know that any one person could drop about 15 lbs of targeted fat in that time.
And DC will have the best trainers and best nutrition.
I think he looks great for a murder/mystery. But-
He will be expected to look like James Bond in March.
And he will.
Spot on.
Trust me, you have nothing to worry about; in my daily life, as a personal trainer and as a competitor and model I’ve been involved in the field of health and fitness for over 30 years. By nature, Daniel Craig is a very lean individual; like many of us his weight may fluctuate for any number of reasons, including a role. Over the years it’s become very clear that he knows how to get in shape when needed. He puts in the time in the gym , trains with stunt coordinators, and dials in his diet to shed any excess body fat and create an athletic, fit physique.
He’s got the genetics, the work ethic, and as Peter said, the resources to do it.
The last thing anyone needs to worry obout is Daniel Craig not showing up in shape .
Not really. That’s just over three months away. It’ll be here before we know it.
But I don't think that time has come.
