The Blond Bond

There's more to James Bond than haircolor and height.

Attila the Hub and I finally got around to seeing Casino Royale tonight, and it was wonderful: they are transforming the character of Bond back into a human being rather than a cartoon superhero.

"Craig's got an odd build," A the H points out.

"He's got an unfashionable build," I respond. "He's stockier than the previous Bonds have been, and he's got a tremendously muscular midsection."

"And a longer torso. He's not fat, though."

"No," I reply. "No fat at all. I checked."

It's not just the stunning body, though: Craig's acting is tremendous. As is the fact that he was asked to do it. I happen to be a fan of Timothy Dalton's and Pierce Brosnan's, but it's been a while since the Broccoli franchise has make that sort of demand on the Bond of the day. It was refreshing, and a treat.
