Daniel Craig is back as James Bond film
in it dude in it know it it's back for
the last time as James Bond well I mean
never say never again you know that's
exactly right you know and I think he
definitely saying never again yeah great
that's what the last one should have a
call definitely never again I won't do
it
don't make me do another one no he's of
course back in there's not enough time
to die that's right right I simply can't
find the time to die that's right this
will mark 14 years of him in the role
that's incredible it is isn't it it
doesn't feel that long
like Connery was borned forever yep
Roger Moore was on forever and a day
he's still bond Lazenby was born for too
long yeah but I think though I'd like to
talk about the legacy of the Daniel
Craig James Bond how its kind of changed
the narrative of James Bond okay for
good or ill yeah forgot how he suits the
role of the character maybe what might
be coming next little suits talk about
the little suits anyways you could leave
a like in this year that would be great
but I will say this about Daniel Craig I
don't love all the movies they love him
as a man yes you sent love letters to
him I know walks he sent him to his own
house I was gonna say he is consistently
good in these mixed bag movies I think
so how do you I mean I don't think it
gets better than concealer Royale I'll
quite like Skyfall I know you don't as
much its rewatched it since we saw it at
the movies yeah it's got a breakneck
pace where you can kind of hand wave a
bunch of the weed elements of it away
I guess that story it I feel like to me
Skyfall is the great a great example of
what people call fridge logic where you
watch the movie you don't think about it
then you're going to your fridge later
any like hey wait a minutes a minute I
didn't thank you so why don't we keep it
in a fridge I'm a monster
that's right out of the gate though I
feel like he was criticized for a number
of things being blonde being blonde
being short you see that short I mean I
think he's under six foot which is I
guess short I mean that being said like
Roger Moore is probably quite tall but
he also moves like a rubber band yeah
well they don't think because this
version of Bond is the first version
where I feel like he can actually fight
yes like this bulldozer of a man
we I mean we have discussed pitting the
various James Bond actors together sure
the result is always the same do Craig's
bond would crush all of them to death
without question do you feel though he's
to brutish to be bond or do you think
they kind of tone that down over the
years I think they have refined him as a
character since then like I feel like
that character is always he's always
ready to do some violence I couldn't
even think of a specific example he's
always ready to do a little bit of
violence he's run it through a wall yeah
he's beating up a parkour guy you know
what he's up to is right I guess one of
the things that this means stand out in
this series for me is the action is
incredible for the most part absolute
Dyson really standout stunts set pieces
and things like that and bond is kind of
known for that yeah I mean you know for
a lot of people it isn't about whether
the plot necessarily makes any sense
it's more about cool locations cool
explosions yes spectacular stunt
sequences helicopter corkscrew
yes Spectre the movie that's right not a
good movie dangerous stunts though
dangerous stunts though one of the
things though I don't really love about
these movies is that it follows one
narrative arc I don't care for that at
all you know I feel like you know I
think it's like I'd add things that tie
back it's but it's become so much of
like oh my god this is your past and
everything was organized movies in the
main like the the vast majority of them
are James Bond he's a super suave super
sexy spy yes and he's going on a mission
and then he meets a beautiful woman yes
and a beautiful villain yes and he
romances one and kills the other correct
which is which is largely irrelevant now
that you know that and then he finishes
a submission with a quip and that's the
end I guess they just the producers
decided that audience is one more these
days because bond I guess is ultimately
the Bond movies are kind of a mishmash
of whatever whatever else has been
popular yes in recent years so I guess
with the advent of the Bourne movies
they went what bond needs is he needs a
tortured past yeah and he needs a long
narrative where he who is less
windsurfing on sheet of ice I based on
what you've just said I completely
understand that totally yeah the Bond
movies were in a death spiral yeah right
a Daniel Craig in my humble opinion but
I don't feel like we've ever really
gotten the
James Bond just does a mission movie
yeah I mean and the ones where he's kind
of done that like Skyfall where there's
like a villain and he has to stop him
it's a mission it's since been retro
actively made that it was his brother
whatever his brothers Blofeld and solace
but that's a direct sequel to it is a
direct sale and also it's got a very
uninspiring villain yes which is a man
shorter than Daniel Craig if you can't
even imagine
where do they even find someone like
that I think it was under Daniel Craig's
shoe I think they dug a little trench
for the man to stay right yes that make
sense see I think though Quantum of
Solace gets a bad rap it's not great
especially after Casino Royale but that
was written by Daniel Craig and like the
director on set while they were making
that during the writers strike yeah it's
not a writer but if you watch those
movies kind of back-to-back yeah it's a
pretty good continuation but it's
obviously not a patch on Casino Royale
and obviously you were immediately
thrown out because at the end of Casino
Royale bond is wearing a vest yes the
start of Quantum of Solace he's not
wearing a vest well let me take his
jacket off then take the vest off and
put the jacket back on why would you
sounds like something he did well he
must have you take the jacket off and
he'd place it carefully on the back seat
of your car one of the things that I
don't like about this bond is he's
blonde that he's short yes I'm actually
fine yeah I think he's my little even
that blonde it's not like he's not even
blonde no he's really not yeah but I
feel like regular person here yes but I
feel like he retires too much oh my god
he's retiring every movie he retires you
know what also he went from guy just
getting his double-o status in Casino
Royale to being like mi6 as Ultimates
spy legend buy this new one yeah like oh
my god he's remember him yeah that was
like a couple of years ago come on he's
done four missions
well that's the thing though because I
presume he does other stuff even mines
right I'd like to see one of those quite
frankly there's a few video games and
and whatnot that do touch on some of his
adventures but he retires in Casino
Royale and then comes out of retirement
I don't think he ties in Quantum of
Solace
but then if he's thinking about it yeah
but there's like damn what did i do at a
time that's right at the start of
Skyfall he's retired because he
shot yes then he comes back and by that
point even though it's six years in or a
few missions for him they're like you're
a relic of the past bond what are you
even doing here you know we don't need
you anymore like you just started we
just started doing that I feel like if
they got to this movie now and did that
it would make more sense
and then inspector he retires at the end
yes so presumably in this new movie he's
retired at the start then comes out over
time that's a seven but will you be
retiring so much Davis I mean I know
it's a hard life or whatever but I think
that's kind of a card that you can only
pull once maybe twice we have to though
talk about the tiny little suits are you
of course yeah this is your thing this
is your area look yeah I feel like
costume wise Casino Royale got it all
right guys he's looking he's casual what
he needs to be casual yep he's like in a
suit or a tuxedo when he needs to be
he's gonna stand out a little cuz he's
Daniel Craig obviously the shortest man
in the world but otherwise he's gonna
blend in to his environment whether
there is it the casino or is it the
airport or ever he's gonna blend right
in where is it a weird snake Mongoose
fight exactly yeah every other movie
after that he's wearing these tiny
little suits yeah no matter where he is
the casino whether is it an airport
you'd be like that guy yeah he doing
here
why's he wearing a tiny little suit did
he suit shrink in the wash he has no
other suit but with that though there's
the problem of the onset stunts right
Yeah right cuz they're otherwise because
if you move too fast yeah in those
little suits you're gonna rip the
sleeves up yeah so for him and his any
stunt doubles they've got a slightly
bigger suit right so you can actually
swing your gorilla arms in it he's got
it he's got a hero wardrobe yes which is
the tiny suit he's just standing in my
doing a pose yeah not too not too
broadly otherwise he'll rip him yeah and
then he has a set of identical clothes
slightly bigger yes he needs to do
literally anything like walk jump squat
squat but I think though that's a result
of the size of Daniel Craig because he
is by far the fittest of the James Bond
yes for sure a long way I mean that shot
of him coming out of the water in Casino
Royale it's because remember it's become
so iconic they say that it was an
accident that on the day he just went up
on a sandbank and they filmed it I do
not believe that for a second and that's
I think that's also the smallest he's a
bit he's been
he's gotten bit I think he got bacon
that's the biggest I reckon he's gonna
slim down a bit okay go on yeah agree to
disagree agree to disagree but if you
are a man that size that is an option
enormous your enormous that is an odd
size for a suit yes way too much about
suits but I guess they'd still be able
to tailor them to fit him properly oh
yes and he should wear more undercover
stuff like they do in Marvel t-shirt
leather jacket sunglasses has ball cap
yes exactly
the hats his sports team on the earth
right British sports to eSports to the
London crumpets yeah look regardless of
how there's barely enough time to die
how well it does yeah I definitely think
you will go down as one of the better
bonds if not the best because people
have short memories people have short
memories yes I mean people default to
Connery obviously but everybody has they
find the second most dangerous bond
that's right and probably the most
dangerous actor yes yes but I think
there is an appeal to all of them and
everybody's got their favorites like I
love the Roger Moore version because
he's just so silly you know it's I just
think of him as the human raised eyebrow
yes and Pierce Brosnan is good in that
one movie that's good of his all tonight
yes I mean he's great for product
placement you know he is if you like
damn I wish there was a movie with
constant product placement Eddie if the
frozen in movies any and all man in a
frilly shirt Lazenby's you man oh you
know it is anyway what do you think of
the James Bond kind of legacy that he's
kind of left and what do you think's
coming next you think I'm gonna go with
a female James Bond a female James a
blonde but all this do they're gonna
change the race do you think they don't
know any and all of that do you think
James Bond is gonna get in an empty
cello case and like ski down a mountain
with it like Dalton already do I think
the public are ready for a big change up
I mean I know they didn't take blond
well and whenever somebody suggests
Idris Elba there's you know people
obviously flip out and things like that
but I think the next movie is going to
be a big shift we're gonna say a blonde
Idris Elba oh my goodness can you
imagine such a world yeah but I feel
like even if they continue this universe
where where they continue the new
double-oh-seven
as not James Bond but it's just the 94
July 17 it wouldn't surprise me if they
even took it in that direction and that
also leaves the door open for Daniel
Craig to have to return at some point
anyways look if you are interested in
