With the latest newsbit that James Bond 23 will arrive in theaters November 9, 2012, we have some Maniacs saying that Daniel Craig is too old to play the part or he wasn't a good fit to begin with...

Soooo.....Let you Bond fans sound off with your thoughts. Do you think another actor could fit the part better or should Daniel Craig continue with the role?

Flame War!!!

lol Unc...I was expecting a flame war as well. Nada? Oh well...I guess Craig is getting too old for the part (according to some users) and the Bond fans can't be bothered to post otherwise.

I'm up for Craig getting at least 1 more film if shooting starts soon.

I don't think he's too old but he looks too old. The guy appears to have spent a good amount of time under the sun to have developed that leathery skin of his

I'm not big on Bond anymore anyway. Too many similar characters outthere now that Bond is a gritty no bullshit spy with no sci/fi gadgets

Daniel Craig is NOT too old for the role. It would be nice, however, if the studios didn't have legal entanglements forcing years between the films. To think, in the early heyday of Bondmania, they were being released at one a year. And those early ones remain some of the best in the fifty year history of the franchise.

I'm now at the point, I really just want another Bond movie because the wait is too long. Daniel Craig, "too old" , not really an issue. He may not aged as well as Brosnan or Dalton however with the special effects technology these days anything is possible.
