Newspaper suggests Daniel Craig calls time on 007 while he is ahead

Journalists just can't seem to accept Daniel Craig's tenure as James Bond. First they bitterly complained about his casting. They then contracted amnesia and celebrated his debut as 007 in Casino Royale as a smash hit. Now, tabloid hacks are suggesting he should quit while he's ahead.

Yesterday, Alice Fisher in the Gaurdian scribbled:

"Craig's debut was triumphant. He won over Bond purists with his tough interpretation of Ian Fleming's spy. Yet his thesp pedigree meant that flustered intellectuals could still opine about his trajectory as an actor... Craig shook up Bond's familiar character, reinvented him as an action man. If the spy is now allowed to just putter along through four more similar adventures that invigoration will have been worthless. James Bond has been well and truly shaken but if this is where the risk-taking stops, will we still find him stirring in four films' time?"

It must be a quiet news day over at the Guardian.
