    So it was just Zach and me Friday night. We were going to go catfishing but decided to go see his first "Bond... James Bond" movie. Admittedly it has been a while since I have seen one myself and I was a little apprehensive. While there were a couple scenes I could have done without... we loved it. The best James Bond moview I have ever seen and Daniel Craig may be the best Bond... or at least a close second to Connery.

    I was never a big Bond fan until Daniel Craig took over the role. I've enjoyed all of his Bond flicks.

    How can any red blooded male not be a Bond fan. I loved them all... it should be required viewing for high school seniors. LOL And the Bond women... Hubba hubba.... they've all been ...well do I dare say... bathroom material. LOL

    I saw it last weekend and was a little disappointed. I would agree that Daniel Craig is a great Bond. Maybe it is just me wishing to be young again, but I thought some of the earlier movies were better. I would not discourage anyone from seeing it, afterall, it is a Bond movie. It just didnt quite get to the expectations that I have for a Bond flick.

    I've heard it was the best yet from several friends.

    Casino Royale would be tough to beat in my eyes.
