Sexy/ pretty are two different things Mr. Craig is SEXY not pretty. ---

> [@Asimovian](#): > > Straight male here. > > I thought his face looked really weird when I first saw a picture of him before Casino Royale came out. Having seem him on screen in two movies now (and a preview of a third to come out soon), I have difficulty imagining what straight woman wouldn’t want him. I think that you can critique a person’s physical characteristics to death, but the way a person carries his- or herself can make a world of difference, and I can definitely see the appeal with him in that regard. For some reason, he reminds me of Viggo Mortensen in that same aspect. This. In still photos, he’s not at his best. But in motion, he is stunningly hot and sexy. ---

He’s what’s referred to as a shrimp. Great body, bad face. But also the fact is while the Bond’s before him were classicly handsome, he comes off as the “pretty boy” type due to his excellent physique ---

Did someone say we did? I didn’t in the OP, I was just curious about ANYONE’S reactions. I do agree that he has a smoking body and that he is more attractive in motion than in still photos. ---

Does the Pope shit in the woods? Hell yes he’s attractive! Some people say the face isn’t so great but I love rugged looking men and his eyes are to die for. Any time my husband is contemplating some style change I always refer him to whatever Daniel Craig is doing (since he’s a pale skinned, sharply blue eyed buff guy too…uh…I’ll be in mah bunk.) ---

Add me to the list of women who think he’s not handsome but is just drop dead gorgeous and sex on legs. Well, as James Bond, he is. In real life, he’s a bit on the short side for my personal tastes Just as well, really, seeing as it’s highly unlikely he’ll ever meet me and fall madly in lust with me. I’d have to turn him down; you know, for being a shorty. 😃 ---

As an aside, I see on some fan site that Daniel Craig’s step father is a man called Max Blond That name’s got Bond Villain ™ all over it. ---

Gay female, and he can spin me around the bedroom like a rag doll Any Time He Likes. When his Bondship was announced before Casino Royale, I can remember being just about the only person who thought he was perfect - there was literally outrage that such a pug (a blond one at that) could get the role. Let’s just say I feel very smugly vindicated. Sex. On. Legs. Some people just have ‘it’. ---

Another straight male here. Having seen him in the Bond movies and the Golden Compass I can definitely understand that women find him attractive. ---

The Wife was as eager to see the new Bond film as I this past weekend, and She has never been a fan of action or spy movies. That tells me something. (She can think of whomever She wants as long as Her paunchy, middle-aged husband is the one at hand…) ---

Holy crap- I saw the nekkid pics. God DAMN… In the accompanying article, even Judi Dench said it was “an absolute monster.” It’s not exactly a monster in the pics, but maybe she saw it in a… _better_… moment! :eek: 😃 ---

Good-looking? Nah, not particularly (except for the eyes, of course, which are striking), but hot? DAMN! The man _radiates_ sexuality, sensuality, hotness, oh my goodness it’s warm in here! I’ve never been a fan of the Bond-type action flicks, but I enjoyed Casino Royale immensely due to Mr. Craig’s insane yumminess, and will be seeing (and enjoying) the new Bond film for the same reason. Mercy, mercy me. Oh, btw, I looked at the nekkid picks, and believe there should be an addendum to his contract that requires him to be naked in at least 25% of all his screen-time in future films! 🆒 ---

I am a straight male, with no homosexual tendencies. On those tests you find on the net, the ones that determine how far you swing one way or the other, I always end up on the extreme hetero side of the scale. That being said, if Daniel Craig walked up to me and wanted to make out, I’d pretty much have to say, “Okay.” I honestly can’t say this about any other male. ---

Straight female, and Daniel Crag is pure sex on legs (and comes across as really nice and down-to-earth in interviews, too). ---

> [@Hazle\_Weatherfield](#): > > Did someone say we did? I didn’t in the OP, I was just curious about ANYONE’S reactions. Exactly my point, you didn’t ask for clarification, but often it’s given and I’m just curious as to why? Does it make a man more attractive if a straight guy or lesbian finds him hot? Does it make a guy less attractive if only gay guys and straight women find him attractive? If not, then why is it done? Do we even realize we are doing it? Shouldn’t the question of whether someone is attractive be a simple answer regardless of what side of the orientation/gender fence we are coming from? Again I’m just asking out of curiosity and I don’t think it’s a negative to do it or a positive just interesting is all. Also I’ve noticed this a lot here, not just on this thread and have often wondered why. So I asked… ---

For some reason, he reminds me of Viggo Mortensen in that same aspect. It’s interesting that you make that comparison. Viggo Mortensen and Daniel Craig are the only two current movie stars that I find incredibly attractive. In both cases, it’s their eyes and the way they move more than anything else.
