Nov 7 2008Daniel Craig has lost his mind

1107_daniel_craig_premiere.jpg

Daniel Craig, an outspoken Barack Obama supporter despite not being a U.S. citizen, thinks it might be time for a black James Bond. According to The Scoop:

Craig, the first blond Bond, told the British press, "After Barack Obama's victory, I think we might have reached the moment for a coloured 007.

"I think the role could easily be played by a black actor, because the character created by Ian Fleming in the '50s has undergone a great deal of evolution and continues to be updated," he said. "I've always been a fan of Obama. The political ideas that have emerged from his speeches seem to me to be genuine."

Look, I'm as open minded as the next guy, but what the hell is Daniel Craig talking about? James Bond isn't black. It's about as simple as that. You can't just go around replacing characters to be progressive. It'd be like having Shaft played by an overweight Mexican woman. What's that? Making a movie about He-Man? Well let's go ahead and cast an Asian guy. Or better yet, how about this watermelon?

Don Cheadle will probably get that role too.

FIRST!!!!! GAHAHAHAH!

BLAAHBHAHBHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!

yeah and it is also time for a white Shaft, seriiously piss off.

I, for one, would love to see a black Bond.

DAMN YOU p911gt10c!!!!!

#2, you're a loser.

Great idea.
Too bad people are still closet racists!

#6

sounds like he was just really excited for obama, which i can relate to! cause i got a crush on OBAMA Bama bama...

saying "coloured" instead of "colored" doesn't make it right!

personally i'd like to see a latina woman playing the hulk. that shit would be realistic.

I think it is time for a black bond. I would see the movie besides I don't think the Bond character can be compared to Shaft? who wears an afro? Bond is beyond being "white" he is international so why typecast him as only a white man? I guess the Bond ladies were supposed to always be white also? times have changed my friends maybe in time your ignorance will too.

I can see a black james bond, as long as he doesnt have Q put some "rims" on the new Aston Martin...ill be fine!

don't go black
i am sick of this shit blacks
jumping around the streets like the zoo open it's doors

So what if James Bond isn't black... neither is Barack Obama.

Lemme guess, Will Smith as the new Bond?

This is the same idiot that said James Bond was/is ready for a gay scene. Douche

Fuck off Fish...a nigger 007 is a cool idea

Kinda wierd to start naming your Bond successor when you've only done two bond films.
Bond is of course, a former royal navy tough guy...
On a similar note, 10 years ago I hoped that they would cast Batman with Wesley Snipes. After the previous batman movies, I thought he had the necessary gravitas.

Well let's hope Obama is genuine Danny.
Or else USA is still Double-O screwed.

(Like -does he know Africa is a continent ? Could you maybe get '60 Minutes' working on that one America ? Could be a scoop there Mike Wallace....
Some of us foreigners are beginning to wonder what goes on down there)

Just because Obama's mom had a severe case of jungle fever doesn't make her or her son black. What if he had come out looking like Matt Damon? Would he still represent "change?" His cabinet is full of the same Zionist-communists as Bush's cabinet.

Douchie, the only "rims" you are familiar with are the ones your trace with your tounge around random male anus.

mmmmm Daniel Craig! and hes for Obama? double mmmmmmmm!

haha hollywood_hillbilly :P

hahaha sure cross dresser!!!

youre like a broken record backwood boy! same intelligible crap different day...

So you can change hair color, nationality (Scots vs. English), height, age...but not skin color? WTF?

I think there should be a white Weezie Jefferson.

Pierce Brosnan was the hottest 007. Who is think ugly big eared monkey??

Pierce Brosnan was the hottest 007. Who is thisugly big eared monkey??

SuperFish Writer, you racist faguette! Asian's can MOST certainly be He-Man!!! By the Power of Gray Skull!!!! Asians HAVE THE POWERRRRRRR! (But I agree with you on Daniel Craig's comments. Black's cannot be James Bond, just ain't right).

The Superficial writer is not funny, and often unnecessarily offensive.

That's very racist and sexist of Daniel Craig. I think the next James Bond should be an Eskimo woman. How about a midget Congolese transvestite?

I Agree Completely with Fish on this....

You don't go changing things like that just for the hell of it!
What next an Asian Blade? Mexican Wolverine?
The ethnicity is a part of the character

The best James Bond ever was George Lazendy "on her majesty's secret service"

#10.'saying "coloured" instead of "colored" doesn't make it right'
Although, it does make it proper English spelling.
Do you know what I'm saying? (American translation "y'all no wat I say'in?)

At first, years back, the idea of Daniel Craig playing Bond was strange and out of 'Bond' stereotype. His opinion seems fair. I wouldn't mind a black Bond at all.

Tracy Morgan called this a long time ago: http://www.hulu.com/watch/18874/saturday-night-live-bond-lamont-bond

Bond...Lamont Bond

Man is it refreshing to hear the admittedly liberal Superficial Writer make some racial sense!

Replacing whoever is in the majority is the exact opposite of equality . When are the lefties going to understand that white people count, too? Like he said, we don't hear about replacing black roles with white people, do we? Of course not, because the current 'accepted' mindset is the enemy of equality and diversity.

This is the part where you call me racist.

1st WTF: black james bond
2nd WTF: somebody who claims to be enlightened still calling someone "colored"
3rd WTF: sissy unnecessary U's

God knows they wouldn't turn Nick Fury from white to black...

Oh wait...

Yeah, the fact that he said "colored" just killed me. Hello!

#28, Jenna, you hit the nail on the head. I always thought Craig looks like a blond chimpanzee. Check out that receding forehead. What a fucking retard. Actors should never open their mouths outside of a script. 99 times out of 100 they just let out crap. Sure, a black James Bond. Why not a midget? Or a faggot? Sorry, homosexual. No, wait. A transgendered woman. This is the douchebaggery that gives political correctness a bad name. Why can't these assholes make up a new cool black character instead of trying to rewrite old white ones.

I don't think there should be a black bond...

There should be a black and white bond!!! hehehehe one black and one white...

I'd expect Richard Simons to be the next Bond.

Yeah, definitely not trying to be racist here, but the only way that movie would sell is if the movie premiered exclusively in London, where African Americans with an English accent is just like anything else...

all B.S. ... im no racist but just stick to the plan.. all james bond white.. all shafts black.. simple.. james bond been white since i was born..jeez..

I think it would be cool to have a Black Bond. I think Will Smith could pull it off.

Vote no to a black 007! =)

It could be done...in the books they make it fairly clear that there have been a succession of Bonds. James Bond is the name always assigned to Agent 007, no matter who he is. So, we could very well see a brutha Bond.

Craig sounds ungrateful. Fuck, I'll be James Bond. How's that? Why has everyone become so fucking retarded? Obama is not coming to your house to play XBox. He's not going to babysit your kids. Obama doesn't give a fuck about you. He's one man already being tested by Russia and being reprimanded by Israel. If half the fucking country blows up, don't be surprised.

Liberals and Hollywood elites have made the black man their pets. Nothing but a novelty. If you could miniaturize a black man, Paris Hilton would be carrying one around wherever she goes but good lord knows how many times she's locked her door on a street corner.

I don't see a problem with James Bond being black, the character doesn't seem to be written with a particular race in mind to me. But to cast a black actor just in an attempt to be progressive, & 'break through barriers', that's just retarded to me. It's not like the film industry doesn't have stars of ethnic origins. And every character can't be played by a black person, just 'cause.

And to address one other comment, if by 'Will Smith could pull off James Bond', you mean Will Smith would totally screw up the role, I agree.

A rare moment of sense from superficial's writer. Well done.

fuck you with something hard and acidic


Despite not being a US citizen? Do you honestly think your President doesn't affect our country? Why do so many Americans believe that America is in some kind of bubble that is sealed off from the rest of the world?

Also a black James Bond is a ridiculous idea. Hes ment to be half swiss half British. I'm sorry but you can't just suddenly make him black.

@34: George Lazenby was the worst Bond of all the men to play him and On Her Majesty's Secret Service is one of the worst Bond films ever made - I can only think of Never Say Never Again as being worse.

Learn2nothavecrappytasteinJamesBondActors

The only taste Douchie has is the dried semen on the back of his throat.

Er, this is what is called in the UK "havin a larf" and you all fell fer it

One last thing; while I don't want to seem racially insensitive, this post reminds me of my four favorite 'off-coloured" jokes -

Q: What do you call a black man on a bicycle?
A: Thief!

Q: Two black men are driving a car. one is tall, the other is short. Who's driving?
A: The police

Q: How do you keep a black man out of your back yard?
A: Hang one out front

And my last favorite black joke:

President Obama!

I'd love to see if this was in response to a questions about it or what context.
Craig has said in the past he thinks they should do a gay bond scene and you don't know if he's serious or not. Luckily he doesn't right the films.

It's a character with a history well displayed in books and referenced in the films. There is no real smudging of, well he could have been black. The character just frankly isn't and so why deviate from that backstory. Sure the films are set in the present and there's inconsistencies, but it's important to keep the characters story and background solid. Scottish Father, Swiss Mother and the ancestory with the family motto "the world is not enough" as established in On her Majesties Secret Service.

Why not just make a new 00 agent that's black if you want to do a bond film with a black lead.
There is no need for bond to be black, and it completely would mean a chance in the backstory.

Daniel Craig has now entered the retard zone. When he said "I've always been a fan of Obama" , does he really mean "always", as in... "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth and Obama."
Please! I am happy that a black person has been elected. hopefully this will help put an end to racism. but other than being elected (and the symbology of that is huge) he really hasn't done that much. And much of what he says scares the hell out of me. That bit about the Civilian National Security Force... WOW!
but there is a great name he could use for it... the Gestapo! Don't believe me? check out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZEnNYN8sKbQ
yes, they do have a little fun with it, but they are Obama's words.
Anyway, daniel craig may be a good Bond, but he is batshit crazy.

When Obama was a young boy in school, there was Daniel Craig

[I need a proofreader!]

i cant believe how racist everyone is here. I've seen tons of racism towards black people and even one about jewish people. It's pathetic and makes me think I'm living in a society 100 years in the past.

A fat James Bond. Jack Black IS James Bond. oooh oooh ooohh and he would be 'black' too! get it? Jack Black? Yay I'm a genius.

*Someones* never seen the movie 'Undercover Brother'..

@41 I think a fat gay black transgendered jewish woman midget with attitude would be hilarious as bond.

And after the movie tanks, they can re-cast Bond as he SHOULD be.

So... what about Wild, Wild West? Jim West was white.

That look contains FAGGOT-PUPILS, bet?

gay bond? jesus easter bunny christ. sean connery needs to beat the ever living shit out of this panty-waist. a black bond? that's like having a black jesus or a black santa claus. there is no magic there.

Did you have to say watermelon?

Hate to break the news, Michael, but the real James Bond - that is, the James Bond in the Ian Fleming books - wasn't even particularly good looking. He was described as an exceptionally ordinary-looking man, the kind of person you wouldn't notice in a public place. That excludes every actor who has played Bond to date; especially Daniel Craig. Yum.

Daniel Craig isn't the first Bond to say this. Pierce Brosnan said the same thing. I've always thought of "James Bond" being a code name for whatever agent has been made 007, seeing as the character has lived at his peak through so many generations...it only makes sense.

Black007: "Licensed to WHoooP Yo ASS!" (Trademark Patent Pending)

Bond girl w/BOOTY:"Ohhhhhh James...is that your 12" PPK?"

I'm a bit surprised by your reaction. The only real requirements for 007 are to be male and english. Skin color has nothing to do with it.

i agree, the offensiveness in this post didnt come with the funny. you should have underlined what a black 007 would do? undercover in africa? who will be the most noticeable in a crowd of rolls royce driving bourgeois?

on the other hand, a chinese 007 would be more believable since 007 is the combination of smart, atlhetic and like to take risk. (well who you are known gamblers, who won the most olympic gold medals and i don't even need to convince you that chinese are smart). undercovering in the next first superpower country

Well, Bond _does_ kill a lot of people. Think about it...

Why not have an asian man as he-man, you cocksucker!

Now that's retarded. You don't have a black bond, you create a new character for a super slick, cheesy, spy character and make him black. Not take something that is basically carved in stone as is and change it.

Reminds me of Maddox's site about Tom Cruise being the Last Samurai. He jested that we should have Julia Roberts cast as the Last Inuit.

Next thing you know they're gonna want a black Jesus... Oh wait....

Jesus was a zombie. He was like pale green and shit.

Halle Berry played Catwoman. Btw, her biological mom is white.

I have always kinda respected the superficial writer for his somewhat crazy but funny liberal comments. This post kinda changed everything.

Just as I thought that America is so different and revolutionary from rest of the world. This sort thing and the comments here dampened this image.

Ru Paul in a wheelchair should be the next james bond, and should be used to digitally replace all previous bonds as the one true bond.

He/she/it could have cool gadgets in the wheelchair, like a spring loaded stair lift and an automatic nappy changing device.

Four more years! Of destruction and insanity!

Yes Yes....... Will Smith for next 007

Hey jacquesquenouilles, a Chinese Bond WOULDN'T be believable because Bond would have to be of DRIVING AGE...and who would believe a 13yr old Bond??

"saying "coloured" instead of "colored" doesn't make it right! "
Who said it did?

Deliberately taking a word that was spelled correctly then spelling it incorrectly and trying to imply that the person who said it originally was only using correct grammar so everyone would agree with his point is as retarded as you.

They should use an eskimo to play Michael Jordan when they make a movie about his life.

Actually, this is a pretty racist article. The color of someone's skin makes no difference. Got it? Kudos to Craig.

The colour of someone's skin makes no difference?

What a dumb comment. Black is black and white is white - two completely different things. Of course it makes a difference. White people and black people are not the same.

James Bond is white. The day they are filming a Bond film with a black Bond we are all doomed as this racial hypocrisy has then gone way too far. There are things quintessentially white and there are things quintessentially black. It's quite simple.

@43: Wow, you'd have sounded pretty stupid using the term 'African American' to describe black people in America, but you used it to describe black people living in BRITAIN. You've transcended the human concept of stupidity and crossed over into a completely different realm. Congratulations.

@84: The word is spelled 'coloured' in Britain. Daniel Craig is British, and was talking to the British press. The word wasn't spelled incorrectly.

To my surprise, I've seen his profile on the millionaire & celebrity dating club^^^^^^MillionaireLoving. C O M^^ ^^^^ for hot singles to hook up for Hot Love and Sexy Dating.

Saying 'coloured' isn't PC.

Have to agree with 75.

Bruce Lee would have kicked James Bonds' ass, his gadgets' ass, and fucked Miss MoneyPenny.

A black bond? No fucking way.

First of all theres not too many great african american actors around (im not being racist im just stating the facts) and those who are great, Denzel, Samuel L. Jackson, Don Cheadle, Forest Whitaker simply cannot pull this off.

So forget about that stupid ass idea.

People made a big deal because Daniel Craig was blond, what do you think would happen if he was dark as Wesley Snipes.

Regardless,

Craig is THE WORST BOND EVER!

Mbuahahahahha....

This is the funnies idea about James Bond!

People should know when to divide politic to an entertainment..... *sigh*

DUMB idea.

What's the point?

"Colored" "Coloured"

Same fucking thing.

Any fucking retard who gets all bent out of shape with the term "colored" being used should hang themselves in the noose of their hypocrisy.

NAACP = National Association for the Advancement of Colored People

Epic fail...

And you retards getting bent outta of shape claiming that it's racist to say bond should stay white are fucking stupid. There are things that are synonymous with being white and black alike. Stop bitching and crying for "special" (racist) treatment cuz then you're just riding the short bus.

i always thought bond was a code name, therefore anyone could play him

Daniel Craig is a LOUSY bond. The fucker hates guns, can't drive the bond car because he's never used a stick, and says shit like this that makes him look like a liberal weenie.

Fuck all celebrities who think they matter.

Why not? Halle played cat woman didn't she despite the fact that it didn't go over too well. That was due to her age anyway. On another note Im so glad to know that Daniel Craig isn't a racist, because DAMN!!! baby got eyes on him. He can knock me out with those eyes any day. Yes this black woman.

Unfortunately this site is the only thing that lost something - me! I know you mean well, but when I read (on another site) Craigs quote - I thought hooray! The Obama win will change everything and color will no longer matter. Not sure what makes me more sad - the fact that you have no idea what you posted was indeed racist, or that I won't be coming back to this site...because you DID have a funny/mean balance going on for a while. BTW, I am a 32 yo white professional woman who buys lots of stuff...so keep my advertising demographic in mind next time you decide to smack down someone who makes a positive "who cares what color someone is" kind of statement. Seriously...very sad.

#89

I know who he was talking to. I wasn't referring to the article but comment #10. Like I said.

I'm English so I spell it the correct way. coloured.

Is it too late to make Pierce Brosnan Bond again? Though I'd be all for a black Bond if it's the only alternative to "time for a gay scene" Daniel Craig.

:The Obama win will change everything and color will no longer matter:

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAAH

I see nothing wrong with a black James Bond; I nomitate Chiwetel Ejiofor.

James Bond is whatever we want him to be, anything creative can be reinterpreted, there are no rules when it comes to artistic creations and why the fuck should there be, who does that benefit? I'd like to see santa as a black man or another race more often. As a white person I'd love to see a black James Bond. Why shouldn't young black kids have a debonaire black bond to admire and emulate, it's all in good fun and Craig is right. I just don't see why it can finally happen NOW, this should have started happening a long time ago. If people start finally representing other races more fairly in media just because Obama (who I 100% supported) was elected it just shows how pathetic they are that they had to wait for a big cue like that, life isn't always going to give you opening to make choices for equality you have to accomplish things yourself like a grownup and not always wait for giant signs to give you all the answers. So that's the onlyt thing that pisses me off, but if good things hapen then good things hapen, better late than never.

You know, it's really easy to not get it when you never feel under represented, but if you turned on the television and rarely saw people like you and when you did they were almost alwys represented as criminals and hero's were always white you'd want to see changes to. Some of the worlds great hero's are black people like the subway superhero and the men who saved reginald Denny, Nelson Mandella, Martin Luther King so why doesn't fantasy fucking represent that? Media is an amazing tool to reach people and yet it is mainly used for commercial bullshit, comsumer greed and pure evil. It could be so much better, for many sheltered people media is the only window to the world that exists outside their little backyards. Prejudice is often based on the fear of the unknown, but when people realize "hey they are just like me" they get their panties unbunched and let go of the hate and judgement. Media has made great strides for equality, but it has also worked against it by creating ridiculous stereotypes and for all the good that has been done certainly more could be done.

It's time to try on some other shoes and walk a mile buddy.

#106 Nice speech. If that's your take, then you should support a female 007. Or can 007s only be limited to violent back-stabbing misogynists of varying colors?

Jesus, some of the people on this site need to pick up a book. The character is white. It's not to say you can't have a black 007. He's just not going to be James Bond. He's a going to be a different guy, a black dude, who is a new 007.

Desperately trying to recast white characters with minorities instead is not progress. It just reinforces the notion that white culture is somehow better and deserving of emulation.

Oh shut the fuck up. I am so tired of this politically correct, racially sensitive bullshit. Personally, I don't care who plays him and what race they are, but the fact that you think there HAS to be one in order for the world to be a better place is just fucking retarded. Oops, did I say RETARDED? I meant conceptually challenged! Na, fuck it, it's retarded.

1) Get off the crack. Preferably sometime before you plan to type again.
2) As long as people of different races exist, there will always be racism and animosity. Get over it. Humans are not a friendly species. That doesn't make it right, but that's how it is. Just like some men will always hate women, and vice versa. There will ALWAYS be hatred. It is HUMAN NATURE.

James Bond is an iconic, established character. He is a white British guy (I think his dad was Scottish and his mom Swiss?). He needs to stay that way. Enough with revisionist visions of every damn thing ever written/filmed.

Blacks do not need white people's cultural leftovers. Why not just invent an iconic black character, with a black back story? That's what people want to see.

Fuck. Why cant some things be the way they are. We are all black, white, brown, yellow and purple for a reason and James Bond is a character that has its roots in a predominantly white England, so hence BOND IS WHITE.

I voted for Obama, but lets not start acting like nutcases and turn everything that is white into black just for the sake of political correctness! STAY REALISTIC.

@101. jenna
Fuck jenna. WHy are you such a crybaby? Get up Get loose, stop calling everyone a racist immediately. The racist-calling argument has become such a weak one, as you extreme leftist cowards yell it at everyone who only tries to disagree. It's making me so tired. if this bullshit racism calling won't stop I will vote next time only for a chinese lesbian anorexic patient as the next POTUS.

nope. no racism here.
just lovely
it's not like the same guy's been james bond all these years. so what if the next james bond is black? if he delivers a good movie that's all that should matter. we have white actors playing black characters. how's this different?
btw.....did he really say colored?

oh and.. if the argument is that white bond is all there's ever been or all you've ever known. you've probably never seen a black president of the united states either, have u? open ur minds people. forget racist, or not racist. just be a better person..

James Bond is not an actual name. It's a role. A title placed to the agents. That's why it's able to change from one person to the other. Obviously a woman becoming James Bond would pose some problems and really just too much of an overhaul.
But a black man becoming James Bond...I don't think it would deviate that much from the whole concept.
Why does James Bond NEED to be white? I just find little support for a claim like this.

But I agree with Craig using the word "colored". What's up with that?

i'm never coming back to this site. that watermelon crack was the last straw. fuck you Superficial.

Seriously, what does a watermelon have to do with shit you were talking about, you racist idiot! James Bond can be who ever the fuck they want him to be. This was a waist of a post by the Superficial.

Holy fuck...what will be next? They'll start wanting Jesus Christ to by portrayed by a fucking darkie soon!

Yesterday I was white, tomorrow I'll be black, and next week I'll be Asian, because I was already Hispanic last month. I can't wait until scientists come up with a way for me to change into different animals, yay!

I can picture a black Bond,Biritsh people of African descent can pull this role off, why not? not all black men wear big baggy trousers and hoodies and slur and hit their baby mommas you know...I'm not saying they should cast specifically a black man for the next Bond, but if there is a guy who can play Bond very well and he is black, why not?

That's a terrible idea. I'm all for racial diversity, give him a black friend or something but that's a stupid idea making bond black, while we're at it let's also make Bond american, gay and a woman. Yay racial diversity.

Craig is a douche, Brosnan, Connery, Moore even Lazenby and Dalton were better than this guy.

Having a black actor play the role, to me, isn't much different than seeing a non-white Santa Claus in a shopping mall. It's role, that's all. After all, didn't Marvel tap Samuel Jackson for the role of Nick Fury?

Judging by the martial art skills of Bond, I'm surprised we dont get an asian James Bond soon.

But seriously I agree. Bond is british culture. And he is classically british and white. Not black.

No offence to black people, but you have your black roles like shaft, or bad boys, we have ours. It's like replacing Will Smith and Martin Lawrence with Chevy Chase and Jamie Kennedy.

asian bond? no way. i'd be laughing throughout the movie...asian dudes are TINY where it matters. those chicks would be lol in the bedroom. asian dudes SUCK at seduction. how about an arab bond? they're sex fiends and drive expensive cars.

OMG no, that's like having a white person playing shaft! or whatever that funky dude's name is. i knew eveyone would go crazy once obama was in office. sheesh...

Yo some of yall non-blacks on here have lost your minds, because it's apparent you guys have the belief that everything including the world revolves around you. That's what's wrong with Americans today...we have all gotten so use to white faces in major movie rolls and in television period. Let everyone else shine for a while (Latino people, Asian, Native American, all Hispanic, etc). DAMN!!!!! On another note Damn this man has some gorgeous eyes, and that's one reason Im glad he's not a racist. If I were to ever meet him I'd want him to look at me just so I could see those pretty blue eyes, and yes Im black and nappy, but I still look good.

#118 if you really believe in Jesus, and in the bible, then you should know that Jesus has already been for centuries misrepresented. In the bible it describes him having skin of brass, and hair of wool texture. Besides, wasn't Jesus born in a brownish nation? Jesus should've always been represented as so.

That's okay. At one point everyone shit their pants over the thought of a black President of the United States. FYI, this guy was suppose to be the new Bond before Daniel Craig got the part: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Harris_(actor)

I'm ashamed of a lot of you. And Superficial...this was a sick article. It doesn't make any difference what color a person's skin is. Please stop this racial nonsense...it's just stupid, and the most anti-Christian thing you can do.

I'm white, and don't give a damn about color, except that I'm glad to see things beginning to change in that people from all races are started to be represented more. I voted for Obama; it was one of the proudest votes I have ever cast. White, black, pink or polka-dot, he will be my president, the same as everyone else. When I look at Obama, I don't see a black man, I see the man; that's the way it should be with everyone. Daniel Craig was right.

thatone (and anyone else who wanted to know):

The term 'colored/coloured' in England is still socially acceptable there - it does not have the negative connotations that it has here in America. I have had to explain to friends that visit from England to NEVER EVER use that term while here, and to do so would be nearly the equivalent of the dreaded n-word. Every single visitor was quite apologetic. However, when 'coloured' is the same as 'black', as it is in England, people get used to using both words interchangibly. Here, we've got the history of segregation, which England never had, and 'colored' has a terrible history as a word and a label from the 'separate and not equal' days.

So, please use Mr. Craig's comment (by a British person, to the British press) as not being racist - he's actually not, and was making a progressive comment. Don't you love that we live in a world where the little differences in languages between countries can cause massive confusion - in an instant?

Thanks,

Hey Fish, good to see you slap the PC idiots across the face! They need it! They really really need it!

It ups the post count and generates lots and lots of views.

@131, Gin: you're a sap, a stupid mindless ovine sap. You really believe what your idiot box tells you. There isn't any difference in Obama and McCain. Neither one of them gives a rat's ass about you or your problems. Why don't you go eat a gun, humanity will be better off if it eliminates the 'tards from the gene pool.

What's wrong with the superficial writer...he's/she's a total idiot, why can't James Bond be black? He's been, so many other things and people of different physical attributes why must color be a barrier. Geez. Grow up.

a watermelon? seriously? how passively aggressively racist do you get?

Harvey Dent was Black in the first Batman film...

How typical that 9 out of 10 crybabies about 'don't be racist - black bond all the way' are women. Fuck. You think you are being super liberal and rational, but if you would for a chance read a book or two on ethnical diversity and human evolution you would simply see that mankind is NOT equal. Now I don't give a rats ass if my president is white, purple, yellow or black, but please give it a break and let coloured people create their own 007, it is RACIST to give them white men's spillovers - which looks like: 'oh poor black men, you are so left behind, here you go you can have our cultural heritage, because your own sucks too much'. Now that is racist to the max, but what could I expect from bigoted leftist feminists.

Hmm...the pussy who runs this site sticks his foot in his mouth regarding race yet again. James Bond can't be black? It seems the same thing was said about the most powerful man in the world less than 2 weeks ago...

he jes tryin' to get da coloreds to come sees his movie and shit

The country with more mixture of races, is racist!
Shame on you!


don't worry. all characters in all movies will be black now.

I can't wait till we only have one channel

W.E.T.

A nigger bond would be da bomb.

Bond shorties, drive by's .

For real

The prez could do a cam-e-oh.

A black man couldn't me 007; he'd be more like 012. TADOW!. I said it. Schlong; James Schlong. Shake it righ' thurr.

"coloured"??!?!?!

not PC, with or without the "U"

Will Smith is doing it for his son in Karate Kid. I'm not saying it's right. In fact, I'm saying it's quite wrong. But I'm just saying.

they should make a Sanford and Son with white people.
or better Good Times or even Car Wash or Watermellon man. That would be so KOOL.

Remember "Wild Wild West">>>>Yikes ! That might have been one of the worst movirs ever,,,and it had s agood cast......just think? Blacks can do what they want but they just can't be or play any White Role....> . like a Cowboys - James Bond - a red neck- Henry The 8th- Shoud a white guy play Shaft ?
That would be so cool.....................doh

most of you sound like a bunch of racist twats

What's the deal with all the posts claiming it would be insulting to black people to allow one of them to play Bond? That is completely absurd.

I'm not suggesting that when they are casting the next Bond they should set out to find a black man, but deny someone the role because of the colour of his skin if he is otherwise qualified is clearly racist.

I love how people are so much more open to bi-racial ideas. However personally I feel that since the James Bond characters have always been classicly known as caucasian men they should keep the pattern. Mind you this has nothing to do with me being prejudice.

i agree i think that will smith would be good bond
