Re: Daniel Craig
In Response To: Daniel Craig ()

: Daniel Craig along with all his predecessors
: all hate guns. Roger Moore would prctically
: close his eyes when forced to use one.
: Apparently their hatred of guns only goes so
: far, as they are all perfectly willing to
: take them up in their films. I would just
: love once to see one of these actors be true
: to his espoused beliefs and refuse to be in
: a movie containing guns and gun violence.
: The paycheck I am sure assuages their
: damaged psyches. If the shrinks are right
: about violence on the screen causing violent
: behavior in our children, then perhaps
: Daniel, Sean, Roger, Timothy, George and
: Pierce should make love not war. The box
: office won't be as good, but they are in for
: the art anyway.

Funny, I got the exact same impression after reading that article. It sounds like Craig is saying, "I don't like handguns" (but I don't mind using them as a means to a multi-million dollar paycheck).

I wonder if he's really a quartz guy, too, and Omega is twisting his arm to wear that "bloody inaccurate" mechanical timepiece in the film.
