NEW BOND: I HATE GUNS!!! By This is London
Daniel Craig will have a problem playing the new James Bond - because he hates guns.
The actor will wield 007's famous Walther PPK in the movie Casino Royale.
But he revealed in OK! magazine: "I hate handguns. Handguns are used to shoot people and as long as they are around, people will shoot each other.
"That's a simple fact. I've seen a bullet wound and it was a mess. It was on a shoot and it scared me. Bullets have a nasty habit of finding their target and that's what's scary about them."
Nor does the 37-year-old share Bond's love of Martinis shaken and stirred.
"I love a Martini straight up. I don't think anybody makes a Martini stirred any more," he said.
Craig was unveiled earlier this month as the successor to Pierce Brosnan. He will play a tougher, grittier 007 in Casino Royale, which is based on Ian Fleming's first Bond book.
The movie is due for release in November next year.

This is the BRAINFART du jour hands down. Perhaps for the month. Please o please don't tell me we are going to have a Politically Correct 007. Lord help us all. I want my BOND killing people to save the world with his Walther PPK. I want him throwing caution to the wind with the ladies and not wearing a condom. I want my Bond passing sexual innuendos with Ms. Moneypenny and being snide with Q and M. Above all I want my BOND to be a MANS MAN. Not some panty waste liberal pinko who doesn't have the SPINE and Testicular fortitude to stand up to a personal attack. I am afraid from the looks of this the new 007 isn't going to pass the "Bond, James Bond" sniff test.

Please prove me wrong but this is not a good first step to proclaim your disdain for the very thing 007 is known for and then take a fat paycheck to portray the very character and actions you don't like. HYPOCRITE or the word Money WHORE come to mind anyone? Going once...Twice... Three times??????????
