Blob. . .James Blob?

OK, I don't know if someone is joking--either Daniel Craig or Contact Music, where I got the story--but here's one of the weirdest bits of news to come out of the QoS filming:

Daniel Craig--Craig to Play Fat Bond

Action hero Daniel Craig hates being lauded as the fittest James Bond - so he plans to gain weight for the final scene in new 007 movie QUANTUM OF SOLACE. Despite being branded by the media as the most "physical" superspy to date, the actor doesn't just want to be remembered for his six-pack. So Craig has vowed to revert back to the previous incarnations of Bond, when the agent's training regime wasn't as physically demanding. He says, "Bond used to do 10 press ups and smoke 50 cigarettes and drink a bottle of something and pop a pill. "At the end of the movie we film a scene where I'm fat - because I don't want to be remembered as the physical Bond."

Let the jokes begin. . .the film should be renamed Run, Fat Bond, Run, or For Your Thighs Flabby, or maybe even Thunderbutt!

    I think it was a misquote. I believe Craig actually said 'we film a scene where I'm phat"

    Come on Hardyboy, don't you even read your own website? This quote is on M5's post from The Sun's interview, where Craig's comment is described as a 'quip'.

    Classic headline---a fine addition for Craigger's ever-expanding s****y press scrapbook...it'll be the size of Encyclopedia Britannica by the time he's finished his run.

    OK, OK, I did miss the quip. . .but what does it say when an offhand joke causes Contact Music to write an entire story? And how much you wanna bet the anti-Craig crowd will pick it up? Craig wants to be the gay Bond, the fat Bond, soon enough the transsexual Bond. . .it never ends.

    Oh, and to add to the fun:

    Oh, yeah...this is 'bread and butter' for craigspicturenexttoamonkey.com... :))

    I wouldn't be surprised if Craig drops these little asides as a way of having fun with his more mentally diminutive protesters :(|) It's rather like chumming for sharks :D

    ha ha barbel...!

    To be honest, I don't think there is an anti-Craig team any more. They've gone to ground (except on this forum, mind. But Tee Hee, DS* and me are about the only ones).

    That Contact Music is as serious about journalism as Fox News?

    Daniel Craig must be having a right laugh if certain sections of the 'media' are picking up stories like this.
