James Bond got absolutely spoiled, because every time Daniel Craig opened his mouth, it was always about how he hates being Bond and wants to move on from the franchise.
Is there actual proof, and I mean legit proof, to this? I remember him being on a talk show shortly before Spectre released, and he basically said, “look, people keep saying I hate the idea of playing Bond again, and it’s bullshit. But think for a second, Spectre was a four month shoot. That’s four months where I got to spend far less time with my family and friends and had to do what is sometimes a physically and mentally taxing job. And I love the role, but after four months to be immediately bombarded with people asking, ‘are you doing another one?’ is just a bit much, you know? Like, let people take a breather, pursue other projects, etc.”
So I never felt Craig hated being Bond, rather he didn’t care for fans who, SHOCKER, don’t understand how reality works and think Craig has to be gung-ho about immediately hopping back into the role after already doing a prior one. Let people breathe, you know?
Besides, what do Bond fans have to bitch about? You got five films with him. Meanwhile, I’m just staring at my Blu-Ray of Girl with the Dragon Tattoo and thinking about the two sequels we didn’t get and being all:
