Much of the success....or failure....of a movie has to do with the writing, the script and the plot. Given how good Craig can be, I'd say it's not Craig that made those two unbearable for you but the writing. I have to agree with you on Spectre. Sort of convoluted to me. I liked the other three. But you have to admit the car chase scene with the Aston Martin vs. the Jaguar was pretty cool. If I had any complaint it would be that they don't show much driving of the Aston. They usually have one scene where he is given the car and in the next scene he totals it. Give us some longer driving scenes and I'd be happy.Craig has a 50% success rate for me, loved Casino Royale and Skyfall, but Quantum of Solace and Spectre were very disappointing.
That would be great. Finaly a lady as 007.Also great that the black British actress Lashana Lynch has been cast as 007
I think QoS can be largely blamed on the screenwriters' strike that was going on at the time, but TBH I wasn't even convinced by his performance in Spectre. The car chase was good though.Much of the success....or failure....of a movie has to do with the writing, the script and the plot.

...yes, hopefully Phoebe Waller will deliver a script that enables the characters to play-off each other and create some chemistry...That would be great. Finaly a lady as 007.
Think of al the fast cars, the collisions, the explosions. The cars she totals. And that all only when she is trying to park her car.
It's now got a name and release date. No Time To Die is due out in early April 2020. Can't wait. I really like the Craig version of Bond. If this is his last, it will be interesting to see who will fill those shoes. More to come.
I heard that too after I posted this. I'm all for women's equality and all but Ian Fleming wrote the character as a man. A female Bond wouldn't be Bond. It would be an entirely different character. There were also rumors that Idris Alba might be the new Bond. I guess we'll have to wait until the new Bond has been picked.there where rumours floating around that he would be followed up by the first female bond....
I loved him in "The Saint" and "The Persuaders".My favourite Bond, and in fact the only one I liked at all, was Roger Moore
