The picture of him is undeniably unflattering. Because I'm sure the producers think it's a good idea to leave a gruff, untrimmed beard and mustache on a suave secret agent. If they could make Brosnan look like a hobo, they can make Craig look like a million bucks.
As far as the current trend of the series... there've been some good moments and plot twists during the past few years. Bringing back Valentino in The World is Not Enough was pretty cool, and the car scenes from Tomorrow Never Die and Die Another Day were pimp as hell. The plots, on the other hand, just suck. TMD felt far too campy, TWINE was flat out boring, and DID felt forced, not to mention that casting job of blackie couldn't have produced less chemistry. Let's face it: Goldeneye was the last certifiable A+ Bond film. Another rebirth is probably for the better.
