  also as a fashion icon. Those Bond omega watches still sell well.
  To me he was the least cartoonish of any Bonds. Good WASP's entertainment which is obviously deemed reactionary and racist now.

    ROTFLOL... SO true!!!! THAT is the funniest thing I've read in a long time!!!! As for Daniel Craig, I heard ALOT of women in the audience audibly gasp when he rose out of the water in Casino Royale... I believe it was Dame Judi Dench that commented after seeing Craig dress in his trailer that "it's an absolute monster" but quickly added "maybe I should not have said that".... Too late Judi, now everyone knows....

      Judi Densch is a fine actress, but another example of the long deep demise. M was a male and a very important and central figure in the series. He was a former admiral in the British Navy during WWII, and his name wasn't even revealed until late in the series. He was deeply revered by Bond.
      
      What the point was of changing M's character to a female is totally beyond me.

        I guess to add Ms. Dench who has considerable acting chops to the mix... I actually liked Judi Dench as M both with Brosnan and Craig.... I thought they made a good pair in both cases.... Dench made M a more integral character in the series IMO..... Before M was not as important of a character to the plots.....

          So, there were no male actors who could have done that?
