Daniel Craig is a Broken Bond

SEXIEST MAN IN A SLING

Daniel Craig, who reprises his role as James Bond this Fall in Quantum of Solace, is seen with his right arm in a sling while out in London on Tuesday.

The 40-year-old British actor was accompanied by longtime girlfriend Satsuki Mitchell.

Back in June, Daniel also was injured on the set of Quantum. He was rushed to hospital after hurting himself.

Quantum of Solance opens in theaters everywhere on Friday, November 14.

I think we have already been over this in the last post.

JJ you’re getting slow!

# 3

is that man not capable of going anywhere without her though?

# 4

If you’re going to pay writers, HIRE WRITERS!

“after hurting himself”. Craig didn’t “hurt himself”. He was injured.

English, it’s not JUST a second language!

# 5

He still looks good. Wonder how he get that black eye this time though?

He looks old. Look at Matthew Fox, he´s 42 & he´s hot!!

# 9

Yes, he looks very older and very thin.

he looks so old an tired!!!! and I even say that he seems sick…… what is going on with him??? he is not the same daniel that we know from times ago……. maybe he is with a depression….. it’s normal, seing that he has such a busy life, and all the fame, paparazzi and all that things….. I feel sorry for him, he doesn’t look ok….

Geez, could the gf be uglier?? Yeah, he does look old and ill. Find a new companion, this gf looks like a pickup from a bar after a long nite.

BETSY SMITH @ 09/18/2008 at 2:23 pm

What happened to to that chisled man..Now he looks so thin.. It is great that she is there to support him..They have been dating for a
long time.. PR what do you mean that we have already been through
this already..

TO THE RING:

The faux “journalist” in question didn’t state that fact.

Hope his arm gets better.Can’t wait to see his new movie!

He must be into Fugly asian women with the hair glued to the head. I’m shocked. What happened to good taste???

to Betsy;

These pictures were posted in the the link under the Pineapple Express on the last two pages.

I posted the link to them:
http://justjared.buzznet.com/2008/08/01/daniel-craig-pineapple-express/comment-page-23/#comments

I was stating that JJ was very slow on printing them considering they were all over the press and internet for more than 24 hours.

LOL, this comment was made on the P Express last page:

“The gf looks like she has been rode hard and hung out to dry. Can’t she do something with her face. H e looks old as if he has aged 10 years.”

I agree and he looks totally sick and unhappy. This couple look like they are totally done with each other.

you say she looks hung out to dry; well you spend hours waiting in er and see how you look. we dont know how they waited for daniel to get looked at. in er they follow the triage protocol. the most serioulsy ill get seen first. as for daniel looking sick and unhappy; well his arm may hurt, he may be on pain killers and to top it off he has to deal with some eager over achiever of a photographer. being tired and cranky does not mean that these two are totally done with each other.

to 19:

I didn’t say it if you read correctly….I quoted someone from a previous thread..and agreed.

You know for certain he went to a regular ER? Come on. people like that DONT wait in ER rooms, they have PRIVATE doctors for pete’s sake. lol.

they seem to be “tired and cranky” a lot of the time then..even when they know the paps aren’t there they look fed up.

What’s the excuse then?

lou lover @ 09/18/2008 at 3:49 pm

I have something to say but no doubt will have Tiger and Kitty flexing their claws at me :)

He does look near exhaustion point. I guess the glamorous life he leads has it’s downsides like the constant public and press intrusion. That has to be a pain in the neck on a day to day basis. Yes I know he “signed” up for that but it’s hard to tell how a person will cope with it and he looks as he is isn’t.

I would ask him one thing “Was taking Bond on worth it mate?”.

That’s my prate. ;)

until now, she has the only one looking bad and ugly, now are the both of them looking awful…….

THEY REALLY DON’T APPEAR TO BE ENJOYING EACH OTHER’S COMPANY VERY MUCH. THE GF LOOKS AS IF SHE PUTS JUST ENOUGH TIME IN SO SHE CAN STILL HAVE ACCESS TO HIS WALLET. I DON’T SEE ANY PASSION WHAT SO EVER OR CONCERN FOR THAT MATTER. HE LOOKS ILL AND GAUNT. HE HAS REALLY AGED SINCE CASINO ROYALE.

ok so he has a private doctor, that still doesn’t take away the pain. as for looking cranky, yeah if i had a group of photographers taking pictures of me and/or strangers bothering me i’d downright irriated.
nowhere in the contract he signed with the bond franchise does it say daniel craig has to smile and be happy to his life invaded by strangers all the time. as for satsuki; i think i know exactly what her attitude is towards the press and/or fans who keep bothering them. her whole expression is saying “go away and stop bothering us”.

to get real @ 09/18/2008 at 5:17 pm

you’re pointing of that daniel and satsuki look tired and cranky all the time. they don’t react well to photographers taking pictures of them during their private time. just be grateful that looking unhappy and fed up is all daniel does. my cousin works for a major public relations firm here in los angeles. they have one celebrity as a client who is to put it bluntly a nightmare for the press to deal with.
this celebritiy; who is more than very well known, is photographed from the time he leaves his home until the time he goes home. he has a group of body guards like everyone else. but here’s the deal; one of those body guards job is not to protect the celebrity from the press but to protect the press from this celebrity. physically knocking an offending photographer to the ground is not unknown for this person. he has done it several times. start worrying when daniel become physical towards the press and/or fans who annoy him.

poor baby, he looks like sh#’t
i think he’s paranoid about his fame, the attention around him and the type of reception the Bond film going to receive
all that pressure is getting to him

I still think he looks gorgeous. I would lick him up in a minute! YUM

if Daniel starts becoming physical with the press or the public then that’s time for him to get help, if not before.

If he sustained these injuries in a fight then maybe he’s beginning to lose it? Who knows. I hope he isn’t.

The irritation of fans and press shouldn’t justify violence and vice versa.

I knew one person who was told to ‘get lost” when he asked for an autograph by someone who shall remain nameless.

These famous people should realize who put them there in the first place. And no, my friend was not “irritating” this person. In fact this famous person laughed after saying it and walked off.

As for the gf, I don’t feel that sorry for her. She isn’t stupid, she knows the score of his life.

when she wins the most elegant woman of the year by hello magazine, she’ll like the attention then.

please don´t say that 31! she can´t win that! if that happens anyone can with her, she is gonna to be with that look that im the greatest and the hottest girl in the world…..wich it’s not true at all….. maybe that clothes that she is wearing on this pictures make her more feminin, but still not that special….

cold shoulder @ 09/18/2008 at 6:10 pm

It was sarcasm I think No 32.

Shouldn’t she be helping him in the street or something rather than walking ahead of him..when my ex had his arm broken, I walked with him to make sure he didn’t trip up.

cold shoulder @ 09/18/2008 at 6:19 pm

I meant holding his other arm by the elbow, making sure. Just a nice thing to do really. Not walking in front of him. Don’t understand her actions here sorry to say.

http://justjared.buzznet.com/gallery/photos.php?yr=2008&mon=09&evt=craig-sling&pic=daniel-craig-sling-01.jpg

He looks really sorry for himself and sad. Bad arm or not.

I’ve always thought that she was there for her own benefir and all she can get. I can’t imagine what on earth he supposedly sees in her. In these pictures , I see no evidence of caring really between the two. I agree that he looks ill in some regard. Certainly not content and robust.

I don’t care whether there was one or a thousand photographers around me, I wouldnt walk ahead of someone who is in a sling. Your balance is off when you are like that and sick…no person would want someone they love not to help them. no wonder he looks sad. she looks like she couldnt care less.

I agree with Oreo: no caring between the two is evident.

she cares about wearing her 3 carat diamond though.

she cares about wearing her 3 carat diamond though.

she cares about wearing her 3 carat diamond though.

Daniel lover @ 09/18/2008 at 6:43 pm

To Oreo, I agree with you. He looks ill and not happy. Understandably so. But she does not look like she is supportive of him at all. Show a little love and affection for goodness sake. There are lots of gals out there who would love to nurse him well. Poor baby. By the way my cat is called Oreo.

to Daniel lover @ 09/18/2008 at 6:50 pm

maybe she isn’t being supportive because of the way he got the injuries? If he got into a fight then maybe she is pissed at him..i remember reading that she told him to calm down on a few occasions when he’s been bothered by reporters and a fan who took a picture of him shopping.

She looks like as if she is thinking “well thats your own fault you got hurt” maybe?? I don’t know.

You’re right about there being many people who would love to take care of him.
I’d spoon feed him some home made chicken soup, that would put the color back in his cheeks.lol. Oh yeah!

SKOKIE MOON FLY @ 09/18/2008 at 9:22 pm

Daniel is always rugid and hot! His girlfriend has to be the moist unattractive woman with a rich man.

She has aged horrible and she insist on not wearing make up which makes her look worst. She has an Adam’s apple and is terribly thin.

I am sorry but she is borderling FUG!!

Broken Bond @ 09/18/2008 at 10:22 pm

Broken Bond is a good headline..he looks totally washed out.

He looks like he could do with a good nights sleep and and a nice hot meal.

Oooh, what a sexy beast…even with a baseball cap and arm sling…I LOVE THIS MAN!!! I can’t wait to see Quantum of Solace either!!! The previews are OUTSTANDING!!!!

#44
Go back to 2nd grade and learn how to spell.

please….

To me, Sats looks like a man. No makeup and flatchested. She doesn’t seem to be nurturing at all.

I agree and her hair is unbecoming and unkempt. YUCK

tigerlily @ 09/19/2008 at 3:23 am

Lou lover if i am flexing my claws at you it’s only because i’m in a playful mood….grrrrr!!! lol
Actually i agreed with every word you said. : )

tigerlily @ 09/19/2008 at 7:52 am

Maybe it’s not his arm he’s hurt, maybe it’s his ribs. I know people sometimes wear a sling to protect their ribs if they have injured them. Just a thought.

lou lover @ 09/19/2008 at 9:26 am

Yes, he might have hurt his ribs when he hurt his arm, it’s the usual thing if a fall is involved. If he walloped someone then maybe the other person gut punched him. If it’s an old injury he sustained during filming but couldn’t get a procedure done on it until now then he might be recouperating from that.
If he tripped taking out the rubbish he should either create less empty bottles , lol, or have the gf take it out instead. :)

The possibilities are endless here but we will probably never get to know.

Tiger: Ever thought of getting those claws clipped a little? ;)

That’s my prate of the day.

tigerlily @ 09/19/2008 at 9:35 am

Oh don’t worry Lou lover i’ll be gentle with you, don’t be scared!!! LOL!!

I don’t think we’ll get to know what really happened either.

I see the thread is turning into a let’s all have a go at Satsuki thread. Didn’t take long did it.

lou lover @ 09/19/2008 at 9:49 am

You realize by saying that you are just attracting more comments right?

Naughty Tiger.

;)

Daniel lover @ 09/19/2008 at 11:28 am

To Tiger and Lou, never mind about Sats, it’s all about Daniel. He is the only one that matters. The fans that love him wish him a speedy recovery, no matter how he got his injuries. He should take a few weeks off and rest before his two new movies come out. Take care Daniel!

To Daniel lover: I agree but she’s damned if she does and damned if she doesn’t here.

When I hurt my left arm, my gf walked with me linking my right arm everywhere I went, sweet as that was, it made me feel like an 80 year old..lol.

So maybe the gf wanted to help him but he thought otherwise..imagine the headlines then…”Geriatric Bond can’t walk on his own, needs help”..

On the other side of the coin, walking ahead of him looking a mite uninterested seems, to me, a little “cold”. Pardon me for that.

As I said, damned either way.

My prate is done on this…:)

Sats defence @ 09/19/2008 at 12:39 pm

I think it’s all getting to her, the pressures.

It can’t be easy no matter how we think she has it made.

tigerlily @ 09/19/2008 at 1:01 pm

Yes i know i am Lou lover but let’s face it all the Satsuki haters love lynching me!! But i guess you’re right i’m a very naughty Tiger!!!

I think Satsuki looks nice on those pics and yes i actually like her hair, i like the fact that she’s confident enough to go out without any make up on, and yes i think she is very attractive. Let’s face it she’s the one who gets to go to bed with Daniel every night, so you go Sats!!
Go on lynch me!!!!! ; )

lou lover @ 09/19/2008 at 1:06 pm

You sure she isnt wearing a bit of slap there? She looks as if she is if you look closer..mascara and eyeshadow.

My gf pointed that out.. :)

Her hair looks fine to me.

tigerlily @ 09/19/2008 at 1:10 pm

I was talking about on other pics as well Lou lover. : )

Me and my husband have been together for 13 years and we don’t walk around holding hands. He’s usually a few steps in front of me because he walks so damn fast. It doesn’t mean we don’t love each other. Not everyone is lovey dovey in public, it means nothing!!

lou lover @ 09/19/2008 at 1:24 pm

Isn’t is a shame though that a bunch of photographers might influence their behaviour when they go out when they do errands?

Not that I’m saying it does.

;)

tigerlily @ 09/19/2008 at 1:30 pm

I think you’re right Lou lover and it is a shame. But they both seem like very private people so their not going to be all over each other as soon as they leave the front door, mind you i wouldn’t mind being all over Daniel!! (note to self - must behave) ; )

lou lover @ 09/19/2008 at 1:39 pm

LOL….yes well….my gf says the same thing about Craig. I would suspect that you wouldn’t make it out past the milkbottles!

My gf actually walks ahead of me (unless I’m in a sling)…but I think that’s more because she might be ashamed to be seen with me.

:(

tigerlily @ 09/19/2008 at 1:45 pm

Awww now i don’t believe that Lou lover, not for one minute!!

lou lover @ 09/19/2008 at 1:54 pm

Well as my gf said to a friend of hers when she met me.. “I’d share a packet of biscuits with him, yeah, no problem”.

I went to the top of line then. LOL

tigerlily @ 09/19/2008 at 2:03 pm

She’d share a packet of biscuits with you??? Must be love then!! ; )

I know in the morning i’m gonna come on here and i wil be the most hated woman in the world, well maybe the second. I think i will be very close behind Satsuki. I wonder if i will be close enough to touch Daniel though!!!

lou lover @ 09/19/2008 at 2:09 pm

LOL…Tiger, get a grip lass!

tigerlily @ 09/19/2008 at 2:17 pm

I am, i am. I’m going out, i’m gonna enjoy myself and deal with the fallout tomorrow!!! : )

Daniel lover @ 09/19/2008 at 2:43 pm

To tigerlily, I respect your comments and that you are sticking up for Sats. She certainly is not as bad as some make her out to be. My husband walks way ahead of me because he walks faster than me and when he injured his leg, he would not let me help him - he drove anyway. And I would hate it if a photographer was outside my door waiting to get a picture. If Sats is the gal Daniel wants - then we have to accept it. Good luck to both of them. I am going on vacation tomorrow and will miss this website.

lou lover @ 09/19/2008 at 3:05 pm

Daniel Lover: Have a nice time.

I’m surfing the website to try to find the gf’s handbag for MY gf.

Sure it’s Chanel?

stupid persons………….

maybe satsuki is getting her own back when she hurt her knee and daniel was walking way in front of her. there is a picture of that somewhere..he had a funny hat on..

maybe they just are cold, and stupid…………..and ugly!

to coop: why stupid?

because they are a stupid couple, one of the most hideous that I know……

Daniel lover @ 09/19/2008 at 9:12 pm

To coop. Disagree with your comments. Daniel is not stupid nor hideous. He is a wonderful guy. They are just going through a bad spell, that’s all.

to daniel lover @ 09/19/2008 at 9:35 pm

you’re right daniel is not stupid nor hideous. actually he’s very smart. he has managed to make a lot of money at what he loves doing. it’s not his fault that his satsuki has made enemies. i’m not talking about the people who write because they don’t like what they see. i’m talking about the people who’ve actually met her and, unfortunately, have hade to deal with her on more than one occasion. let’s just say, that she’s not the nicest person on the block. she reserves all her charm for those people who can do something for her personally and is less than polite towards those she feels are beneath her.

to daniel lover: are they going through a bad spell? how “nasty” is satsuki?

to daniel lover: are they going through a bad spell? how “nasty” is satsuki?

is she then making him look bad by being “nasty” to people who are lower down than her? is he fed up with that?

they dont look happy in those pics..did he lose his temper?

Glum couple @ 09/19/2008 at 10:50 pm

Something must of changed since they came back from Oregon then. They don’t look like a newly married couple.

Somehting is going on there.

What gives her the idea that she can be nasty to people ? Considering how unattractive she actually is and stupidly she dresses. She looks like a misfit. If that is the case, why would anyone want to be around her? The money that she spends isn’t hers but his. What an ugly sickening person.

I don’t understand the reason for getting into a relationship with someone unpleasant. Life is much too short. That is really tragic.

tigerlily @ 09/20/2008 at 3:41 am

Yeeaaahh you didn’t lynch me!!! lol : )

Maybe Satsuki doesn’t suffer fools gladly (as the saying goes). Maybe she doesn’t go to work to make freinds, she goes to get the job done. I’ve not heard one report or one story about Satsuki being ‘nasty’ to any of Daniel’s fans. Maybe she’s weary of people, thinking that they are only being nice/friendly to her to get to Daniel.

tigerlily @ 09/20/2008 at 3:53 am

Lou lover if you haven’t found the bag yet try Dior, i’ve got a feeling it’s Dior!! : )

KittyDuran @ 09/20/2008 at 8:16 am

To Tiger and Lou…

I think we need to get a better photo of the bag… Dior, Chanel… doesn’t look like a Coach (but could be).

BTW… below is the only comment on the Mr. Paparazzi’s site about the photos. Another “cat” (we’re everywhere!) seems to be disappointed with Sats overall attitude. IMHO, both her and Daniel are probably just stressed out with being celebs. I’m sort of torn by how much sympathy I want to give to either of them. On one hand, I don’t think I could EVER live like that - but then if you want the money, fame, fans, etc. this is the toxic by-product. Or to run out an old cliche.. “You sometimes have to take the s**t with the sugar”. Hopefully, the couple will be all smiles come the premieres…looking fab! :)
http://www.mrpaparazzi.com/index.aspx?postID=4046

“I must comment, I do not think I have ever seen anyone so sad as this woman. She looks like she is going to cry. I really do feel so sorry for her. THis is not the first photo I have seen her looking so miserable and unhappy. It seems that almost EVERY candid photo of her is a sad one- and I am NOT talking about the red carpet pics. And I do NOT believe that the reason she is always so sad is bec the paps are there. I mean SHE ALWAYS, ALWAYS looks miserable whenever you see a photo of her… whether it is at an airport, walking in London, or somewhere in L.A…She is Never Happy, ALWAYS in a lousy mood with a sour face! She is always walking either behind Daniel, far apart from him or way out in front of him (like in this photo). No matter what,if someone is injured or has their arm in a sling, you help them along, or walk alongside them, or CARRY THEIR BAG!! Obviously he looks like he is not only sad and angry, but in some pain. You would think that a girlfriend would CARE enough to help him along, at least walk alongside him! For a woman who has travelled the globe at least a few times (travelling on Daniels’ 2 bond films, plus other films), stayed at 4 and/or 5 star hotels most of the time-(depending on the film locations), attended lots of red carpet events, parties, designer gowns and wears a gorgeous diamond ring…it just does NOT ever seem to elicit a smile from her. I guess the saying is so true, that happiness DOES come from within first, and NO MATTER what Daniel does or does not do, it will never be right for her. Very sad.

Posted by: cat on 19/09/2008 03:54:52″

tigerlily @ 09/20/2008 at 8:52 am

Kitty i think that Satsuki will turn up at the QOS premiere styled to an inch of her life. Dress, hair and make-up will all be perfect!! There will be big smiles all round and Daniel will be clutching her hand behind his back as he always does.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-1058670/Arts-golden-couple-Sam-Taylor-Wood-Jay-Jopling-split-11-years-marriage.html

Daniel’s good friend Sam Taylor Wood and her husband have just split up..maybe that affected them as having friends who split makes you think that marriage might not be a great idea?? It does affect you.

To Tiger:

The nearest I’ve found is the Dior Plisee Tote Bag?? It’s smaller though but looks the same style..gathered leather pleats but not as big as hers.

Its very expensive though so she must have paid a pretty penny for that one. My guess is well over 1500 quid.

:( But my gf wants it. I told her I cant find it yet.

To Theory:

That’s sad news. Never good to hear friends split. That happened to me recently and I agree, it makes you think twice about marriage especially when I thought the couple were rock solid.

Just shows you.

Still doesn’t answer the injury question though. Maybe he lost it when he heard? No, that’s just plain silly.

That’s my prate. :)

Lou lover i’m not really sure where you are in the world but i normally get my bags from Harrods or Selfridges in London. Both have excellent bag departments. Yes i’m affraid handbags cost the earth these days, i won’t shock you by telling you how much some of mine have cost!!!

To Kitty: (I felt bad that I hadn’t posted to you):

Maybe the gf is unhappy because she feels her career has been put on the back burner. I’ve no doubt she went to university or whatever they do in the States and went to some sort of film school for what she did.
She might be a little frustrated it’s all about him and the novelty of it all is wearing off?
She does look very career orientated (which is not a bad thing) and strong minded so it could be that or it could be she just is tired.
Do you think she likes living in London, misses L.A? Misses her family? Maybe Craig didn’t follow through on marriage, changed his mind. Maybe the marriage rumours are getting to them.

There are all sorts of tangents here really.

According to one site she is still working but from home.

Well then…computers are a great invention!

I can’t quite put my finger on it (be nice Tiger) but something is amiss with them.
My gf says Craig looks like a “little boy who has forgotten where he left his pedal bike”.

Tiger, can you keep a lookout for that bag? I’m not in the UK at the moment but will look around. Cheers lassie.

Of course i can and i’m always nice!! ; )

Maybe people are just reading too much into this, if you get what i mean. Maybe they are just as in love and happy as the day they met, only they know!!

Of course they are. The radiate happiness.

at premeries.

to tigerlily @ 09/20/2008 at 2:59 pm

i’m not talking about her being nasty and less than polite to daniel’s fans. it goes deeper than that. in this industry; daniel has to meet with a lot of people not just BR. i’m talking people in public relations, lawyers etc. and unfortunately, more often than not, he brings satsuki to these business meetings. you notice i say the word business, not social. trust me when i tell you that those of us who are present when the meetings are taking place are not interested in getting to daniel. BUT WE DO HAVE THE RIGHT TO EXPECT SATSUKI TO BE POLITE.

i will give you a case in point; daniel was in los angeles recently to go to a meeting. he didn’t meet with BR. one of the people who was present at the meeting after seeing satsuki come in the building with daniel turned to an associate and said “oh god, why do we have to deal with that woman?”. for the record i wasn’t there that day but i heard about what he said from several people. now, tigerlily, do you understand.

It sounds as if she tries to throw her weight around inappropriately. Why is that allowed as the gf?? Ultimately, couldn’t this damage his career? What a complete ass she must be and a turnoff. Doesn’t he have enough confidence in himself to realize he doesn’t need her interference. I look at her past work such as Black Christmas and don’t find her talented. This seems wierd and foolhardy.

Now I think I understand why this butt-ugly woman is with him. She has him believing that he really needs her business sense so to speak. She demands the perks of his lifestyle in return.

to 98:

That’s interesting. What exactly does Satsuki do then? Whjy is she there? Does she help him make business choices or what?

Isn’t that what his manager is for? She sounds like an agent. Is she getting paid for this? She must be one hell of negotiator..does she discuss his salary too?

Her “role” is confusing.

Daniel needs to realize then that he might not need her after all. Is he that co-dependent?

I agree, she has the perks and a good salary. There might be “love” involved but it sounds like more business.

I read one post from someone saying that they are both concentrating on his career.

What does she bring to his career that he can’t get from a great agent/manager? She can’t be that much of a powerhouse in the business.

While she is “helping” him with the business side, she is carving out her own career as being a “top” force to be dealt with within the film business.
She is being exposed to top notch people and making sure her name is getting known aside from being his gf.
Daniel is helping her by having her help him. Simple. I think he wants her respected as a business woman not just as his gf. That’s his aim here.

If things between them go belly up, she will have then have her options.

The if he brings her to PR meetings and has her fingers in all of his pies, she should be well in touch with how she is perceived by some of his fans then.

Does she care? Most likely not, does he? Most likely not.

She won’t disappear behind a pillar anytime soon, in fact, I suspect we will see more of her.

I wonder how many PR meetings have been held to discuss her?

to 105:

Ever figured how much she was intrumental in the Hello Magazine campaign? Makes you think.

I’m sure many of those PR meetings was to discuss that! Seems to be working.
Having friends in high places really help I guess.

Why would people in the business go to her if they can’t stand her and find her intrusive??? Getting along with people is also part of human relations. I think he needs to analyze the benefits of her misguided harsh rudeness and his career. I can see this backfiring.

He sounds kind of weak minded to allow her to have this type of influence. Who needs her with that type of personality?? Yeah he sure could be co-dependent. Also, she sounds like a user

to ok:

Backfiring how? On his career? His decision making with scripts has not been brilliant so far apart from Bond and Defiance…if he is listening to her advice then maybe he needs to be a little more assertive. He survived without her advice for many years before.

You make a good point OK.

personally I think both of their “goals” is to have him win an Oscar. He’s hungry for one and she will revel in it.

when pierce brosnan shows up for a meeting he will sometimes bring his wife keeley. guess what, this lady is a joy to have around. she is polite, respectful and considerate of all who are present. she doesn’t talk down to us as though we are less than her equal. we are more than happy to see her come. same cannot be said for satsuki.

to 105:

describe in detail what Satsuki does then

I don’t understand having a relationship with someone who has an unpleasant personality. Wouldn’t that be humiliating while she is rude and talking down to people? If he likes that behavior then what does it say about him? On some level it seems rather pathetic and sad. I honestly never liked her, now I know why.

tigerlily @ 09/21/2008 at 4:28 am

To #98 i understand what you are saying, but what i’m trying to say is it doesn’t matter what Satsuki looks like, what clothes she wears or how rude she is to people, Daniel still loves her.
She’s still by his side 24/7. She’s wearing a huge chunk of ice on her ring finger from him. He’s let her become involved in the business side of his career, so he must trust and value her input/opinion.
Let’s face it if she is as rude as you say she is, Daniel must know about it/seen it. He obviously knows whats she’s like and it doesn’t bother him as she’s still there because thats what he wants.

tigerlily @ 09/21/2008 at 4:42 am

Forgot to add the down fall to Satsuki being so involved in the ‘business’ of his career is that the relationship can soon develop into a business relationship rather than a loving one. I’ve seen it happen to people i know. It’s very sad to see.

KittyDuran @ 09/21/2008 at 6:35 am

To Tiger… re: #115:

You got me thinking on that post!

Going out on a limb here…maybe that was the intention all along - a business agreement covered up by a “romance”, a ring, hints at marriage, affection, etc. Of course, the opposite could be happening as well - business (still) but blossoming into romance. Either way that would explain Sats being there 24/7 and at business meetings.

Once again who knows? But it should be interesting to see how this plays out IMO next month when QOS comes out with all the premieres. I hope for the best for both of them. IF she is still by his side then I would expect an announcement - official engagement, marriage, pregnancy, etc. at that time - or at least in the coming months.

But I will be pretty disppointed if that was the “ruse”. Then the laugh is on us nosey and gullible fans who took it hook, line and sinker.. ;)

does anyone have the link to the video of dan and satsuki coming out of the gym in london,
i’ve heard of it but never seen it, i really want to see it

to kitty duran:
we are hardly nosey fans - their relationship has been shoved down over necks
publicity pics together on red carpet, encouraging speculation by wearing a ring on the red carpet, she is mentioned in every article about him, the whole thing looks is a choregraphed PR exercise, i suspect its because dan doesn’t want a repeat of the sienna miller episode, he must of been emotionally hurt by the made up stories saying he slept with his friends gf.

KittyDuran @ 09/21/2008 at 6:55 am

clara - are you sure it was a video or was it just pics?

tigerlily @ 09/21/2008 at 7:03 am

Clara - i’ve seen pics of him leaving a gym with Satsuki, but have not seen a video. I have to say Daniel looked if you excuse the expression as fit as f**k in the pics!!! ; )

KittyDuran @ 09/21/2008 at 7:14 am

BTW the pics by the captions were taken around the filming of “The Golden Compass”… so about a year an a half or 2 years ago???

i’ve seen the pics, dan looks all sexy and scruffy in his workout gear, i could of sworn there was a video though, nevermind

forgot to say - thanks kitty

to tigerlily @ 09/21/2008 at 9:44 am

yeah, we got that daniel loves her and wants her around. but that still doesn’t take away the bad feelings some people have concerning her. you know what; pierece brosnan values his wife’s opinion as well. but guess what keeley shaye smith is kind, respectful of all; even to the young intern whoses job it is to provide the beverages etc for the meeting. she leaves everyone wanting to see her again. satsuki does the opposite. that doesn’t say much for daniel’s girlfriend now does it?

to #125 - no your right it doesn’t, but he doesn’t seem to mind how she behaves. And at the end of the day she’s his girlfriend and he obviously doesn’t give a damn what people think and say about her. He loves her all the same.

Just to add to what i’ve just said, there are alot of people out there who are rude and not very nice to deal with, they are only interested in what you can do for them or if you can benefit them some how. That’s life i’m affraid and that’s how it goes.

So the masses of people out here who assumed she must have a helluva good personality, because she sure doesn’t have the looks….were dead wrong! :) She doesn’t have the personality either!

I wouldnt expect an announcement of anything from him. The only way we will know is when shes seen with a wedding ring on and/or getting bigger with a pregnancy belly.

I dont think we’ll see either for a long time.

I’ve no doubt she’ll be there for the QoS thing, why shouldnt she be? it doesn’t signal anything really. They could be still having “problems” but remain a couple for that. I know a few couples who just carry on hoping things will change.

No-one knows what goes on behind closed doors. Maybe they fight like mad but choose to put on a brave front? Anybody’s guess.

Maybe they are in denial that their relationship is in trouble and are clinging on. If she has input into his career then she has a foot hold there making it harder to leave.
On the other hand, maybe they are crazy in love as Tiger said.

Again, guesswork and variables.

That’s my useless prate. :)

To Kitty:

Those links didnt work in case you’re wondering.

Arent you supposed to be on holiday?

;)

to tigerlily @ 09/21/2008 at 12:26 pm

well, actually you’re wrong about having to deal with people like that. oh we can’t take people like satsuki to task for her behavior but we can simply ignore her; as if she doesn’t exist.. from what other people tell me, satsuki gets a lot of joy being thought of as extremely important to daniel’s career. if we start to ignore her she wil be very unhappy trust me. that’s what happens; we just simply ignore those who are rude, unkind, etc

to 132:

Ignoring her isn’t working is it? She’s all over the place with him. If she thinks she’s important to his career, then he needs to wake up and realize she is getting a kick from that.
Maybe he doesn’t care but then again, maybe someone should tell him?
He had a career without her, I doubt she plays a significant part in it.
He strikes me as being oblivious to certain things right under his nose.

Most men in love are oblivious to the bad things right under their noses - back to the saying “love is blind”.

if she was not in the film industry before she would not care but as she was just an assistant she is most likely getting a huge kick from this and really rubbing it in to her former co workers and people who ordered her around before
does she think she is his career guru now?
when he wins an oscar she will there taking most of the credit for steering him there
i think she is playing a strategic game coupled with some love

does she get upset when she’s not included in some business meetings then? i can’t see barbara broccoli having her sit there and be a part of major bond stuff.
ever thought that dan just has her be a part of his career to a point to make her feel that she is doing something relating to film as her career is a dead duck
i agree with earlier posts, the hello magazine thing is a definate pr move and fans who love dan will vote as they feel they are supporting him by doing so and by making her feel better about her public acceptance
it is very contrived

KittyDuran @ 09/21/2008 at 3:15 pm

to look at the gym pics… just google:

Daniel Craig Satsuki Mitchell gym

The two pics are on page 2

:)

and Lou… I’m not on holiday (wish I were!) :)

those ones. yes saw them. she is very fit looking.

nice legs to her credit.

he looks awesome. taken during compass time

they looked happier then

no more holding hands at all in pics apart from official ones?

KittyDuran @ 09/21/2008 at 4:52 pm

To 139:

Even the most romantic of couples don’t hold hands all the time… but the only other casual pic (not official) on Jared recently of the pair is the Daniel Craig is Saks Sexy where they (Dan and Sats) are coming out of Saks and looking for money to tip the valet. Walking together and smiling but not holding hands. That was before the Pinapple Express premiere - quite possibly the same day.

I think she thinks she is quite important in her mind. What an ass. I wouldn’t put up with her crap. Actors are easy to replace in that industry. I hate people who enjoy being horrible to others or watching it being done. I have little respect for either one of them. Perhaps they deserve one another. I’d take Mrs. Brosnan anyday!!

DC looks as if he is holding hands with some bloke in dark shorts. Tranny by any chance?? Too fugly to be female. I don’t think there is enough make-up in the world to help either.

tigerlily @ 09/22/2008 at 2:39 am

Daniel’s arm is in a sling because he’s recently had surgery on an injury that happened while performing his own stunts. So now we know!!

KittyDuran @ 09/22/2008 at 5:39 am

I wonder if it might have been a hairline fracture of some sort. He would be in some pain - but could probably act through it until the wrapup of the film. :(

I heard it was an old injury that flared up. Aggravated.

http://www.comingsoon.net/news/movienews.php?id=48630

It’s all here, he said it was a long term thing that needed fixing. Its an old injury.
He answered these questions in a Soho hotel, I think when the pictures were taken they were on their way there as the sling pics are them arriving in Soho.

Which doesn’t explain the bruising on his face or the bloodshot eyes though.

tigerlily @ 09/22/2008 at 2:36 pm

I don’t think there is a problem in their relationship. I think they are still in love and still very much a couple, don’t know why, just a feeling i have!! As i said before she’ll be at the QOS premiere, styled and looking beautiful, big smiles all round and he’ll be clutching her hand behind his back. I really think too much is being read into these pics. But that’s just my opinion.

KittyDuran @ 09/22/2008 at 2:53 pm

Tiger… you need to hire yourself out as Dan and Sats PR person!!! ;)

to tigerlily @ 09/22/2008 at 2:56 pm

you’re right these two are still very much in love and she can be very charming when she wants to. but don’t think for one moment that daniel has not been told how some people he’s dealing with feel about his girlfriend. don’t be surprised if barbara broccoli or someone else pulls that girl aside and tells her to knock it off. because i’m here to tell to you that it’s getting to that point. we are starting to complain, and as i said before we have the right to expect satsuki to be polite.

KittyDuran @ 09/22/2008 at 3:08 pm

To 150:

Well, if QOS is a blockbuster… you and others complaining might be moot. Because it will only make her, Daniel and his entourage probably more difficult to deal with. The star power will be in full force unless something brings it down. I have my thoughts on what might in regards to Dan and Sats which I mentioned on the Pineapple Express thread plus others I’ve been thinking about.

If what you say is probably true about someone (Babs?) taking her aside and the other things you mentioned - there might be forces at work behind the scenes to limit her influence. IF what she desires is that influence (and you eluded to it) and she doesn’t get it - I wonder if we see her fade away - or will she be vindictive on her way “out the door”?

KittyDuran @ 09/22/2008 at 3:11 pm

To pr: I only saw one pic (and not on this site or Mr. P’s) that had the bruising and bloodshot eyes. Most of the other pics were more fuzzy and in the shadows.

tigerlily @ 09/22/2008 at 3:23 pm

Kitty i don’t think Daniel would be allowed to hire a sexy blonde to be is PR person, Shame really!! ; )

tigerlily @ 09/22/2008 at 3:29 pm

To #150 - will complaining change anything, surely Daniel would defend Satsuki. When you love someone you tend not to want/believe any bad words said about them.

KittyDuran @ 09/22/2008 at 4:58 pm

Tiger… it all depends on what the complaining is about. It seems that she is now on the business side of his life (and she might have been all along - well at least since 2005-2006). If its complaining about her personally (her personality) then he might get defensive - but if it interfers with the business side he might take it to heart.

Once again, I bring up the power of fame and money - the more DC obtains and everything is pretty OK with him and Sats, expect her to be around… and the complaining to continue to no avail. But the moment his career hits the skids or Eon Productions decide they want another Bond after a few more movies then we’ll see.

KittyDuran @ 09/22/2008 at 5:00 pm

Bond is right now his (and Sats) ticket to the (really) good life. I hope he has invested this money properly and spends it wisely.

He can’t be that oblivious that he wouldn’t notice her stupid behavior?? He must be a **** if he gets off watching her treat people badly and just lets it happen. She sounds like a poisonous person and is really out of her realm as the gf. I’ve never bought the bs that she is a producer , with merit.

KittyDuran @ 09/22/2008 at 6:06 pm

jj: I have to least give the woman some credit for rolling the dice and coming up the jackpot. She met him before Bond (what was the status of the relationship I don’t know) and was hovering by waiting to catch him. If he was looked over for the Bond role she would have been “stuck” with a high b-list actor - still better than being an assistant or whatever - and much better than waiting tables in LA. Either way from a business standpoint and if she wants to further her career in the entertainment business it was a stroke of genius.

Maybe Daniel is obvious to it all (if what they say is true) and truly in love. In that case, like I said before, it will take a major bad event to bring this to a relationship to a grinding halt. But this is taking into consideration that she’s furthering her career also. If that’s not the case, she will be with him through the bad times as well.

Anyhoo, I preparing myself for The Good, The Bad and The Ugly of Satsuki coming to JustJared - staring next month… :(

Back to the surgery he had..what’s with the spilt lip then?

Doesn’t compute.

As for the Satsuki backlash, it’ll happen but there you have it. I’m sure they ignore it.

She sounds like a user of others. I thought Bond was already determined about the time she showed up, but I could be wrong. I’m not of the mindset that admires watching people abuse others and that should be a red flag to him.. He must be into butt-ugly women anyhow. I just can”t relate to these people ( D. and Sats)

KittyDuran @ 09/22/2008 at 8:48 pm

Hey… Tiger…

I wonder if Sats handbag is a Mulberry? I tried their website but it only has the newer models. I’m looking at the brand plate and trying to read it. What do you think?

Dan met Sats on the set of “The Jacket” filmed in 2004.

Way before Bond was on the horizon. What that means I don’t know.

KittyDuran @ 09/22/2008 at 9:21 pm

To; 162…

It means she can pick ‘em! ;)

to kitty Duran @ 09/22/2008 at 9:41 pm

to 163:

Well he was a B list actor then, so yes, she can…so according to other reports she wanted to land an actor that is why she got into the business.
Boy she must have done cartwheels when he was offered Bond…if she is the way some people are saying.

tigerlily @ 09/23/2008 at 3:27 am

Ok i’m gonna stick my neck out again by sticking up for Satsuki even though i know alot of you will come down on me like a ton of bricks!!
Alot of you (not all) are making out Satsuki is a over ambitious, cold hearted, goldigger. I honestly believe that’s not the truth, ok she maybe rude to some people, because those who have dealt with her have told us so.
Maybe it was Daniel’s idea for Satsuki to become involved in his career. He loves Satsuki, she’s the one he wants to spend the rest of his life with, so if he can help her career then why wouldn’t he?? And maybe she has a genuine intrest in the man she loves career. She wants him to be successful and make the right choices because she loves him. Do you understand what i’m trying to get at??
We all tend to think the worse of most things instead of the good. Daniel and Satsuki are together, in the love and probably going to spend the rest of their lives together. If they are both happy and their relationship works, why can’t we then accept it and be happy for them?? Why do we have to doubt and put down all the time?? We have no idea about their relationship and what goes on behind closed doors.

If he is aware of her being this way and loves her then fool on him, if he doesn’t then he is in for a rude awakening at some point when he wakes up and smells the coffee.

(Maybe he is turned on by that “career **********” thing but I can’t see it somehow).

the word was career d o m i n a t r i x …

http://img2.timeinc.net/people/i/2008/specials/emmys/beauty/sandra_oh.jpg

is this the style that Satsuki aims for? that side soft curled thing?

she should wear her hair down more, she had some nice styles for the CR circuit, im sure we’ll see more.

Somehow it looks like utter **** on sats, but part of that is her monkey man face

Hairstyle @ 09/23/2008 at 1:53 pm

and Sandra Oh is pretty?

KittyDuran @ 09/23/2008 at 2:34 pm

IMHO - the problem with Sats doing her hair in Sandra’s style is that she has too much hair.

hairstyle @ 09/23/2008 at 2:57 pm

too much hair? u need finer hair for that wavy thing to work.
Sats looks better with it flat ironed and loose.

KittyDuran @ 09/23/2008 at 3:42 pm

pr… Tiger fingers must be exhausted! ;)

Actually, its pretty unfair because IMHO the Princess would’ve beaten Sats like a rented mule if her pic was more formal (re “elegant”) - instead her pic very nice but also very casual. Too bad… :(

KittyDuran @ 09/23/2008 at 3:51 pm

MAJOR MISTAKE to my post 174! - that’s what I get for sneaking on the internet and posting at work… ;)

That should be the Queen! [Sorry Your Highness... ]

Yes it’s all in the pic they choose, Noor is super elegant and Sats pic is from 06. People dont take into account all the other pics.

Not fair at all

The Hello Magazine poll is a good example how they live their lives — full of lies, smoke and mirrors.

The gf is not elegant but is UGLY. There is no way that contest is honest. Most of the time I have a hard time looking at her pictures. Why DC isn’t with an attractivw woman is beyond me. Whatever floats his boat

to pm;

it takes all sorts, that contest is RIGGED, his other gf’s have been pretty, Sats offers him someting I guess that the others didnt, although he was with Heike for 7 years.

who knows where this is going? I think Sats was in the right place thats all, maybe at 40 he thinks he’s ready for commitment?

Queen Noor is the most beautiful woman on this planet.

I saw a pic of Satsuki on holiday in Panama, she looked rough and he was walking very far apart from her.
Now they did not know they were being photographed then like the sling pics…and they still weren’t happy. How many excuses can there be?
In one pic, he goes off and plays handball with someone and she just walks on.
It was on his 40th birthday I think, she had on a creased shirt and a short skirt.

KittyDuran @ 09/23/2008 at 7:16 pm

Well, IMHO being on location for QOS with Daniel seems to have taken its toll on her - when I go on vacation/holiday it’s always tough to look your best. She needs to rest. The pic taken at Siena is not too good.

http://commanderbond.net/resources/sections/news/images/palio/dan_point.JPG

she looks rough there but she prob doesnt give a crap…why should she?

not a fan of make up really..she keeps him interested though..what a life she leads

needs to rest? she leads a luxurious life, yes travelling may take it out on you but they travel in style, massages, sauna’s, teams of people helping. its not as if she has to lug her luggage around herself or sit in cramped economy class, sorry no excuse and knowing the cameras will be on her..her choice.

KittyDuran @ 09/23/2008 at 7:53 pm

I guess that’s what I don’t understand about the make-up. Like I’ve said before the style now seems to be a no-make-up look - which is fine IF you can pull it off (I can’t and I’ve seen many women who cannot as well - but like Sats they do not care). But the times that she wears appropriate make-up she looks IMHO pretty good. Her best features on her face are her eyes and she needs to play them up.

Friggin awesome @ 09/23/2008 at 10:38 pm

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BXbjhAkOCW0

this film looks awesome, he’s so sexy

The woman is so friggin ugly, and I don’t get why he isn’t embarrassed to death to be seen with her. The majority of men wouldn’t even look twice at her. There are just so many pretty women in the world that it is hard to understand a man choosing her. Especially if the personality is awful, so I don’t understand.

KittyDuran @ 09/24/2008 at 5:24 am

To pw… FWIW - there has only been at least one person commenting about her “awful” personality on the threads - and that has mainly been in business meetings dealings. I’m sure her personality is acceptable at other times to DC otherwise she would’ve been long gone.

tigerlily @ 09/24/2008 at 8:10 am

Oh come on people there have been times when Satsuki has looked absolutely stunning. Take the Casino Royale premiere in Paris, she looks gorgeous. Hair, make-up and dress where perfect. And Daniel is holding her tightly around the waist making them look like a couple who are head over heels in love.
She also looked gorgeous at the 2007 Oscars, the Infamous uk premiere and at the Flashbacks Of A Fool premiere.
Not everyone dresses up all the time, we all have our day’s when we just throw on any old thing so to speak. We can’t be beautiful all the time!! ; )

KittyDuran @ 09/24/2008 at 9:26 am

Tiger you said…”Not everyone dresses up all the time, we all have our day’s when we just throw on any old thing so to speak. We can’t be beautiful all the time!! ;)”

IMHO and I’ve mentioned this before, but the difference is striking -it’s like looking at two different women. One stunning and the other looking very bad. There aren’t too many instances of a middle ground.

And it’s very unfair to compare her looks to an ordinary woman’s looks - who in most cases don’t have the resources that pr mentioned in #183:
” She leads a luxurious life, yes travelling may take it out on you but they travel in style, massages, sauna’s, teams of people helping. its not as if she has to lug her luggage around herself or sit in cramped economy class, sorry no excuse and knowing the cameras will be on her..her choice.”

The fact that we can all agree on is that she’s the gf, wife, companion, or whatever to a major movie star. Does she have to be a plastic barbie wannabe? Eye candy? A trophy to haul out to parade down a red carpet? NO! But I would like to see some styling and on a constant basis. She and Dan have the money - USE IT! PLEASE!!!

Oh! There’s also the point that Daniel now has access (via being Bond) to Ford suits and looks dapper at most times - so when Sats looks bad the difference is hard on the eyes.

tigerlily @ 09/24/2008 at 9:41 am

Kitty maybe she’s happy with the way she looks/dresses. So if she’s happy and i’m sure Daniel doesn’t have a problem with her there either, then why change to please the public/fans. Maybe she’s only interested in pleasing herself and Daniel!! Oh that’s sounds soooo rude but you know what i mean!! lol!!

KittyDuran @ 09/24/2008 at 10:06 am

Tiger… I see what you’re saying. But they are in the public light and will be (whether they or others like it or not) be judged. Not fair, but what is? If they (her and Dan) or she has a problem with it… and let’s face it… we don’t really know except for a few quotes from Dan about the pains of stardom whether it really bothers either… that’s just the part of fame. Do they owe it to us fans? Well, if they want to be stars then it comes with the territory.

I just would like her to be more consistent with the looks and to look good at Dan’s side. It doesn’t mean I hate her but I think she can do better (and at times she’s done so).

In my eye’s she’s not a star/celebrity the gorgeous guy who is stood next to her is. We only know who she is and see pics of her is because she’s Daniel’s girlfriend. I don’t mean that in a nasty way i’m just being honest.

Kitties and Tigers:

Found that bag yet? My gf is driving me nuts.

;)

KittyDuran @ 09/24/2008 at 10:34 am

I told Tiger that I think it might be a version (not the latest) of a Mulberry tote or satchel. But I can’t find anything on the net.

No sorry Lou lover haven’t yet, i still think it might be Dior though. Maybe a limited edition or one of a kind who knows?!?!!

KittyDuran @ 09/24/2008 at 10:38 am

Tiger to #192… Will have to agree to disagree…She’s a celebrity (not a star). She’s w/him and gets the perks of being with him, and part of that is being in the public eye.

to kitty Duran @ 09/24/2008 at 7:33 pm

I don’t think she is even that, she is known because she is attached to someone famous, that’s all. That doesn’t make her a celebrity. It’s being recognizable “by proxy”.

But however you classify her, yes, she has the perks of that lifestyle he can afford.
But I keep working from 9-5 in my cubicle, 5 days a week with one holiday a year of 1 week….lol.

to kitty Duran @ 09/24/2008 at 8:05 pm

I think also she is oblivious to the comments made about her and has confidence in herself and the way she looks. Why should she? She lives in a world that most of us will never taste.

She does not strike me as being “shy” nor “under-confident”, in fact, she does strike me as being very determined and driven.

kittyDuran @ 09/24/2008 at 8:12 pm

To 197:

You said…”But I keep working from 9-5 in my cubicle, 5 days a week with one holiday a year of 1 week….lol.”

Let’s see I work 8-5 (no cubicle-but no private office either), 5 days a week with 3 holidays a year of 1 week…:) [Unfortunately, I can't take 3 weeks all at once. :(]

What would the world do without us “working stiffs”? ;)

kittyDuran @ 09/24/2008 at 8:14 pm

To #198…

I agree, 100%!

I hear he may go to the Chicago Film Festival on Oct 16th but I see QoS isn’t showing in the line up yet.

Probably PR at work to get the crowds going.

kittyDuran @ 09/24/2008 at 9:29 pm

pr that’s pretty close to the premiere of QOS - I doubt he would have the time to attend that festival.

QoS isnt showing there as of yet anyway…QoS isn’t showing in the UK until later..he has time to fly in the Sony private jet. ;)

At the end of the day all this bitching and moaning about Satsuki is gonna come to nothing, it’s a waste of time and energy really!!
I don’t see what’s so wrong with her, so she’s beautiful, confident, determined and driven, is there anything really wrong with that???
Alot of people who have seen Daniel and Satsuki together say he absoulutely adores her, and is head over heels in love with her, all i can say to that is lucky cow!!! lol!
None of what we say is going to change anything, not going to change them, her style, the way she is etc…..

to stonefox @ 09/25/2008 at 9:28 am

Interesting comment there…..

These people who have seen them are they fans or non interested third parties? For example, would someone not liking Satsuki see the same thing?

We can be influenced by what we want to see (especially when we don’t know the person) and do we ever know what really goes on with anyone?

All I can say is that is she is the way some people are saying, he either sees it and ignores it or likes her that way.

tigerlily @ 09/25/2008 at 9:54 am

They were not fans, people who had seen them at events/parties where no fans would be allowed, if you get what i mean.

He has to be super desperate to stay with that fug *****

anyone has already the dvd of flashbacks of a fool?? it’s on the site that was released 22 september….just anxious to see all the movie…. I don’t see the movie on the cinema….

IIRC, it will be released here in the states in theaters later in the year. But I didn’t know it was out on DVD… is that worldwide availability?

KittyDuran @ 09/25/2008 at 7:56 pm

OK… I just got onto Amazon.com and they state that Flashbacks of a Fool…

“This title will be released on November 4, 2008.

They held it back to make money out of QoS..don’t see it being released as a film in the US. They need to recoup their losses.

When buying a DVD make sure it’s the right region for your country unless you have a DVD converter ortherwise it won’t work.

In my opinion Satsuki does all the thinkinlg for both of them. It seems that she leads Daniel around, tells him what to do but not what to wear becasue she is not good at dressing herself. It appears that she handles all the day to day stuff like paying the valet and making appts etc. Nothing wrong with that - all he has to do is study his scripts and act which is what we care about not all the other stuff.

No comparison …the gf maybe could compete with the woman on the end. then again maybe not

I knew someone would mention that. Too funny.

I mean too W in 215

why would he allow her to think for both of them when he is more intelligent than her?

how do you know that she isnt intelligent?

i think “opportunistic” is the word..lucky being in the right place and using that to her advantage.

Maybe he is someone who likes to be pulled along, has he ever been alone and not in a relationship?

tigerlily @ 09/26/2008 at 1:36 pm

Of course Daniel’s got a mind of his own, you make him sound like a pathetic man who can’t think or do anything for himself. She may well be involved in the business side of his career but that doesn’t mean she spoon feeds him and wipes his **** for him!! I think Daniel would have final say on any business dealings to do with his career.

KittyDuran @ 09/26/2008 at 1:53 pm

Tiger meant to say “lips” instead of **** in #220!
;)

to tigerlily @ 09/26/2008 at 2:49 pm

No you meant a r s e …

:)

to tigerlily @ 09/26/2008 at 2:52 pm

As for for having a final say on his career, I would hope he does, but for whatever reason, his choices have been a little “off course”..apart from Bond and Infamous/Defiance of late.

He might want to focus a little harder.

awwww,poor baby! I hope he’ll get better soon. He looks HOT as usual,but he should dump that terrible ”Satsuki” person!

there are some new (week old) pics of dan and gf walking in NY, holding hands crossing the road near central park, on dedicated to daniel

thats when he was in NY a few weeks ago, when he met with Babs.

the pics Clara mentioned are dated 23Sep08.
underline:
JAMES BOND star DANIEL CRAIG shows off his latest injury on the streets of New York. The actor is currently nursing a bruised eye and fractured arm, suffered while shooting the latest superspy movie Quantum of Solace. And we caught him with dark glasses and a sling, strolling with girlfriend Satsuki Mitchell in Manhattan on Tuesday…

they are back in the UK I believe now

Yes, I was told they are back this week but that they were in NY a few weeks ago too, they were spotted there…
It must have been a quick trip back again.

KittyDuran @ 09/27/2008 at 3:23 pm

Well, I would love to register with the Dedicated to Daniel site but I’ve tried different user names and it always says, Sorry that user name is disallowed… ;(

And I don’t know who to contact…

Once again the tabloids are off, his black eye wasnt prevelant in the sling pics so when he was walking in NY apparently after that, how come the eye was black? They took it from the other stories, and his arm isn’t fractured. How can he suffer a fracture and continue filming?
It was an old injury.

They need to do their research a bit better.

These tabloids are useless and the timeline is off.

I heard they only made one trip to NY. Could be wrong but that is what I heard.

tigerlily @ 09/27/2008 at 4:01 pm

Any chance someone can get a link to the pics in New York so we could take a look, i wanna see what you are all talking about!! Yes i know i’m a nosey cow!!

There are many more but they are just walking and crossing the road.

KittyDuran @ 09/27/2008 at 6:19 pm

Not good pics - not too clear, also it doesn’t look like Sats is wearing the diamond on the ring finger - I can’t see it - did she forget to wear it?

I’ll look again - the pic might be a mirror image.

KittyDuran @ 09/27/2008 at 6:21 pm

OK - I took a better look at the last pic - it looks like the ring is still there but the diamond is on the inside of her palm (just turned around).

yes, its turned around.

KittyDuran @ 09/27/2008 at 6:27 pm

Sorry to get everyone excited!!! ;)

shes wearing the same shirt in the sling pics on this thread too, she really thin

KittyDuran @ 09/27/2008 at 6:32 pm

I hope that style of wearing big scarves around the neck isn’t coming back ;(

I HATED that look in the late 70s-early 80s…blah!

KittyDuran @ 09/27/2008 at 6:35 pm

To sats:

It does look the same but since the pics on this site show her wearing a jacket over the shirt - it’s hard to tell. The sleeves look to long in the luna pics.

She wears the big scarves to cover up her adams apple. He must be really blind.

lol yes she wears that scarf often..why wear a skimpy top and leggings and a scarf?

strange dress sense even if she wanted to be comfortable she looks sourpussed all the time

if she wasn’t wearing the scarf she would just look like she was going to the gym - odd choice to go with her outfit - the girl has no fashion sense at all.

she really doesnt does she? she looks sloppy, he looks cool but he’s worn those shorts for years now

KittyDuran @ 09/27/2008 at 8:43 pm

To clara… well they were just out for a walk incognito - but someone recognized them and instant photo-op!

KittyDuran @ 09/27/2008 at 9:30 pm

It almost looks as though they were in NYC in the above links then got on a plane went to London but just put on jeans/jackets and different shoes. DC’s jacket and hat look the same in all the pics.

They were in NY during fashion week most likely looking for her gowns for the QOS circut.

to and... @ 09/27/2008 at 9:37 pm

im sure those have been bought ahead of time rather than this late stage

KittyDuran @ 09/27/2008 at 9:52 pm

To 253: Maybe they were looking for her gowns for the award shows next year… Golden Globes and Oscars…

Wasn’t the NYC Fashion Week for Spring 2009?

u sure they’re going to those? cant see him going to either unless hes nominated.

I believe he was there on business for Bond/another project.

KittyDuran @ 09/27/2008 at 10:02 pm

to pr…

I googled NYC Fashion Week Daniel Craig and it came up to this:

http://www.berlinista.com/en/article/duckie-brown-at-mbfw-nyc/6516/

Supposedly he was invited to the Duckie Brown show. The article, if I read it correctly, stated that the show was 9/5/08.

KittyDuran @ 09/27/2008 at 10:05 pm

To: 255… you might be right. He was there as a presenter in 2006 or 2007? w/Nicole Kidman. That’s where the famous/infamous “elegant” pic of Sats was taken.

to 257:

I dont think he did attend. Esp if Moss was in the vicinity.
i have a friend who works during all of that and he did not hear of Daniel Craig appearing any show.

She is so friggin ugly and looks so stupid with that scarf. He apparently is just as blind. I don’t see anything feminine about her, more like a tranny.

Who is the asian guy holding hands with daniel craig? I didn’t realize that he swung both ways. He should stick with women.

to KittyDuran @ 09/28/2008 at 2:37 am

The register feature for the forum is disabled. You have to write a mail, look here:
http://www.dedicatedtodaniel.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2

Do you all really think she is a man? Seriously? How is it possible to hide that fact if it were true? She just looks masculin and some men like that and he is one of them, he is not one for curves from what I hear all his girlfriends have been super skinny.

I think Satsycho has to get over her jealousy about Kate, Sienna, Nicole and whoever else she gets crazy about. Daniel stayed with her so doesn’t that prove to her that she is the one he wants? Atleast he is now holding her hand off the red carpet - and she is wearing a diamond engagement ring what other proof does she need!!!!!!

. I don’t know any men that like women who look like that Really hard to look at

You may not know one but you now know of one - Daniel. He likes skinny manly looking women that his choice and it seems to be working for him. I myself prefer women that look like women and have some curves and substance but he doesn’t so be it.

Why would any man choose to be with an ugly manly woman?? I don’t understand. According to some of the posts I’ve read, her personality isn’t even pleasant.

If what is being said about her personality is true then one would question Daniel’s character as well. Why would he choose to be with someone who has a horrible personality and also unattractive? I am not an expert in this area so I have no clue what his reasons are other than he really does love her and none of the other stuff matters, She is probably horrible to many people but good to him and that all that matters to him.

tigerlily @ 09/28/2008 at 4:44 am

A big thank you to whoever posted the links to the pics!!

Kitty - i love big scarves!! : )

I really wish Satsuki would smile more, her whole face lights up when she smiles. She has soooo much to smile about, like that drop dead gorgeous guy holding her hand, who is head over heels in love with her. You think she would be smiling from ear to ear all the time.

As you stated , it makes me wonder about his character.

KittyDuran @ 09/28/2008 at 5:56 am

Thanks… #262 for the info!!! :)

KittyDuran @ 09/28/2008 at 6:09 am

To 268 and 270…

IIRC I stated in some Daniel/Sats thread that maybe she is the only one that puts up with him and his character/personality. Good relationships benefit both parties. She obviously has what he wants in a woman… and most of that IMHO is something we can’t see.

In interviews that Dan has given - especially when he mentions relationships - he comes across as sort of insecure at times and in need of reassurance.

Taking on the James Bond role which even before the success of Casino Royale was a monumental leap in fame for him - must have been daunting to someone of his character (if I’m reading his personality right). He went from being basically a “character” actor to a A-lister.

So in summary, what we have is a relationship that goes deeper than “skin deep” and is more complex than most - especially in the entertainment industry where looks are a priority.

Just my 2 cents… :)

you forgot the names of two other women in your post; eva and olga. there’re rumors flying around that he got involved with eva on the set of casino royale. and now some are suggesting that he also got more than friendly with olga on the set of qos. there’s not question daniel likes women.

tigerlily @ 09/28/2008 at 9:49 am

I think alot of people are too harsh and judgemental when it comes to Satsuki and her relationship with Daniel. No one truly knows what she is like as a person, business is business and i know alot of people who have their business heads so to speak.
They are obviously in love and happy other wise they wouldn’t be together.
Why do people dislike her so much? I ask this question alot but no one seems to answer it. If you don’t find her attractive why should that make you dislike her? And not everyone is always stylish and well dressed, and that includes Daniel!!! And if she is not very nice when it comes to business, what does that matter to you if you don’t have to deal with her.
Just my 2 cents too!!!

to #273
How could Daniel get over friendly with any of his co-stars when Satsuki is on set and by his side 24/7???

I am sure he goes to the bathroom on occasion so she is not with him every minute of the day!!!!!!!! When a man wants to cheat he will find a way to do it especially if he is not happy but you all say he is happy with Satsuki so he would have not need to look for solace elsewhere.

A film set, esp a high volume one like a Bond, have on average 80 pple > surrounding the film set and actors.

Unless actors meet in secret and considering the security surrounding them, I hardly think having affairs with Eva and Olga (who is rumored to be with Marc Forster) is highly unlikely. Too many people would get to know.
Now if Satsuki knows and puts up with it, then fool her, she then doesn’t care. He also wouldnt get much respect on set if he did that and i think that is paramount to him.

That’s just my opinion.

she’s likely very very good at stroking his ego and vice versa. couples “feed” off each other, which is not always a bad thing. some people call it reassurance/love but basically it’s a form of elevation

http://www.newsoftheworld.co.uk/showbiz/article31274.ece

I can see the attraction would be there, Olga is beautiful

I made the mistake of reading this website!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

KittyDuran @ 09/28/2008 at 12:15 pm

To #280… it’s NSFW!!! ;)

you’d be surprised the number of affairs that take place on the set of films. case in point, mel gibson has had numerous romantic interludes with several female co-stars even though his wife robin is present on all the sets. the directors and other cast members are well aware of this. what suprises many people is that mel’s wife is still married to him. you have to know that robin is well aware of what her husband does.

so yeah, it could have happened between daniel and eva on the set of casino royale and between olga and daniel on set of qos; even if satsuki was there. like robin gibson, satsuki may know full well what’s happening. and like robin gibson, satsuki may not have any intention of leaving him. love is blind so they say.

i don’t think he is having affairs - he dosen’t seem the type - he comes across as too ineffectual and needs help organising his everyday life. i guess this is where satsuki comes in. she plays the part of a glorified pa/gf. she may think too much of herself and enjoy throwing her weight around in business meetings but has no real influence in the film industry.

i’ve just looked at her imdb profile she has been working inthe film industry for 6 years - thats a long time - career progression? she should of produced her own film by now - why didn’t she produce FoaF - only dan’s credited as exe producer
her last work is in 2005/6 the jacket/black xmas - thats a good 3 years ago
she met dan on set of the jacket after he had done layercake first leading role he was on the cusp of the big time - so she picked well.

Prick les less @ 09/28/2008 at 1:05 pm

to 280 and 281:

280 meant THIS website - (no comment)
281 meant only “NewsOfTheWorld”…something to wipe your **** with.

she hasn’t produced any work that has his name on it because of her track record. i wouldnt allow her anywhere near my career if i was him and not on any credits

Daniel IS her career progression. You answered your own question.

to 263:

his exes have all been skinny and small chested. I guess thats his m.o. for women but have big mouths.

i think we can all ponder why…

didn’t he tell jessica stevenson(tv actor/spaced) that she had big breasts - im sure i read this somewhere

I never read that but I did read that he might take next year off for personal stuff. It didn’t come from him but he did say he will have personal down time coming up in an interview awile ago and he hasnt any movies in the works..the Hadrian thing doesn’t look finalized at all.

The man is probably seriously tired. I’m surprised if we wont hear about him after early next year.

KittyDuran @ 09/28/2008 at 8:53 pm

To #290…
I heard that Michael Wilson (co-producer EON Productions) that he (Michael) might take a longer break in making the next Bond film. Historically the Bond films have been about 2 years apart - so if this is true then the next Bond film will be out in 2012… :(

KittyDuran @ 09/28/2008 at 8:56 pm

If the above comment is true then DC will be 44 years old when the next Bond film comes out.

to KittyDuran @ 09/28/2008 at 9:19 pm

Thats not a problem, but I think he will lay low after QoS comes out and is over.His life has been a whirlwind and maybe he wants to focus on other issues.

If he makes another after that, he will be 47, I don’t think he’ll make one at 50.

Four movies I think.

Sick Bond @ 09/28/2008 at 9:30 pm

I agree with the earlier comments, apart from the obvious sling, I think the man looks sick. His face is more sunken, he looked healthier when he started CR.

Maybe he is should take a hiatus for his health.

KittyDuran @ 09/28/2008 at 9:34 pm

We’ll see how well DC’s looks hold up (I’m talking facial). He’s got a great body but he has a ruggedly and some would say scragglely face which might not age too well. I don’t believe he’ll get anything done surgery-wise, but we’ll see.

That isn’t wise in the film industry to go on a hiatus for a long time, is it?? It is such a fickle business. Also, why is batshit Sats allowed to treat people badly at business meetings when she is only a gf?? Sorry but I would have security get rid of her and if dc didn’t like it …he can be replaced./

to clara @ 09/28/2008 at 8:33 pm

if daniel is going to take a year off after the start of the new year that may be when he and satsuki will get married. she’s almost 30 and he’s 40 so they may try for a baby as well. just guessing on this. but then again; he may not take the whole year off.

tigerlily @ 09/29/2008 at 1:35 pm

Satsuki is almost 30??? According to the press she was 29 in 2006 and 29 in 2007 and 29 in 2008. Does anyone know how old she really is?? Damn wish i could stay the same age for 3 years!!! ; )

i HONESTLY WOULD GUESS THAT SHE IS IN HER LATE 30S ESPECIALLY CONSIDERING HER WRINKLES ALL OVER HER FACE. 37-40 EASILY.29 IS A JOKE. sHE JUJST LOOKS TOO HARDENED TO BE YOUNG,

tigerlily @ 09/29/2008 at 1:47 pm

I would actually say early 30’s myself but then again maybe i’m wrong!!

She is 33 by all accounts.

As for the marrying and having a baby…who knows? Can’t see the baby thing for awhile as I read somewhere he found fatherhood “very difficult”..can’t tell you whether that is an original quote or not.

Perhaps he has changed his mind as he said would like another child “at some point”. Maybe that “down time” is next year.

It’s all suppositon until it happens.

KittyDuran @ 09/29/2008 at 2:08 pm

To be honest… I’d say mid 30s. People age differently and depending on hereditary and the elements - you can either look younger or older. IMHO I think she looks older than she really is - maybe too much sun when she was younger?

I’m 49, pale (not a sun-worshiper) and still have oily skin (which the downside is that I still break-out). People who have seen me w/o (the very few) say I can pass for 40 anyday, and 35 years if my skin is clear. With make-up and no break-outs 35 years easily.

A quick story…In 2004 (45 years), I went with my parents to a casino. I lost track of them and went outside then going back into the casino I was stopped by security. They wanted me to take off my shades and show ID. Took off the glasses and one security guy said maybe 27 or 28 years. The other looked at my ID and shook his head and said it must be the hairstyle??? Unfortunately, I spent most of my money on the machines so I couldn’t give a tip…

:)

tigerlily @ 09/29/2008 at 2:14 pm

Kitty i’m pale too (not a sun worshiper also) and people think i’m in my early to mid 20’s when i’m really 32!! And i love it!!!!! lol!! They don’t believe that i have a 10 year old son.
I agree with what you say i think Satsuki looks older than she is, in some pics she can look really young.

when she’s caked in make up that settles into her wrinkles and ages her considerably then

she looks like she baked in the sun at some point - deep wrinkels in her forehead and neck

from what i’ve read she is only 32
she was born in 76

i read 33…oh well..

any idea whether they will be going to the premiere on here?

the tix are really expensive

Lou Lover @ 09/29/2008 at 4:26 pm

Kitty and Tiger:

I go away for a bit and see what you both have been doing… ;)

LOL, I can’t believe this thread is still going, it’s a home from home really.

The gf only 32? She looks older I hate to say, maybe it’s the way she carries herself although when she smiles she looks younger.

Tiger: Located what type of bag she has. No luck my end?

That’s my totally useless prate.

:)

Daniel lover @ 09/29/2008 at 4:54 pm

I have been away on vacation for a little over a week and found so much reading to do on this site but no one has said anything different. In an interview I just read about Daniel, some guy said when he talked to Daniel, he found him to be a very nice fellow. Good complement from another guy. So if Daniel is such a nice guy, then he can’t see how nasty Sats is to other people. This is not how Daniel acts. She must be nasty behind his back or she is not as nasty as people make her out to be. I am sure Daniel would not tolerate that behavour. Lets give him a little credit. Still love you Daniel; can’t wait to see your next movies. By the way, it was sooooo hot in Mexico, I was glad to get back to cooler Canada.

KittyDuran @ 09/29/2008 at 9:17 pm

Daniel lover… Lou lover got you and I mixed up! I wish I was on holiday! :)

Now back to the saga of Dan and Sats. I think the problem that some in the entertainment business (including a few on the threads) have with Sats is the definition of her role… what is she? A girlfriend, fiance, personal assistant…. wife? Now obviously, if she is any of the above, she’s looking out for Dan (and herself) in most aspects of his personal and professional life. Dan also might be using her as a “heavy” in these encounters. He may come across as a “very nice fellow” in interviews which are usually one on one. But on a business level if there is something he doesn’t like, why not have Sats take the heat since he has her accompany him? If enough people complain or ignore her at these meetings she can just retreat and be in a more submissive role.

I hate to sound like a broken record…. BUT if QOS is the big hit I believe it will be… expect not only Sats to be around at Daniel’s side pretty much 24/7 but also for her and Dan to get their way.

KittyDuran @ 09/29/2008 at 9:25 pm

Lou… about Sats purse… I believe we need more and better pics of it to determine what brand. She was carrying around a messenger bag in Austria earlier this year while QOS was filming (she was seen ariving with Dan at the airport). We’ll need more casual pics because she will obviously have a smaller clutch/evening purse at the formal events.

I’m still standing by a Mulberry satchel or tote. :)

Too bad the pics of her and Dan crossing street in NYC was sans purse. It looked as though they were going to a park to jog and only probably only had their cell phones and hotel keys.

lou lover @ 09/29/2008 at 9:47 pm

I think they were walking and being comfortable…I don’t think he’d jog with a bad arm, the pounding (be nice Tiger) would hurt it.

The gf looks frightened to be in NY if you look at her face…he doesn’t look too sure either although I think they were determining when to walk across, NY is very confusing.

That’s probably why the gf had her ring “turned around”..so it looks like a band, safety measure?

Kitty, at some point we’ll pinpoint that bag.

Another useless prate from me. :)

:(

Sats lover @ 09/29/2008 at 10:41 pm

oh yes sorry about that I posted three times!

yes they both have aged, she has yes, maybe the luxury life is too much for her? he has too, too much stress?
she was on the 2929 production page until 2006 then her name was taken off about that time of the music awards (pic) too…I think too many people trying to email her.

I dont think she works as hard as she used too though.

maybe being the gf of an A lister is very draining?

something wrong with my pc..sorry

I read today that Satsuki will not be escorting him to the Flemming gala in October, instead he will be taking his mum.

KittyDuran @ 09/30/2008 at 5:29 am

IF… do you have a link to that bit of news?

KittyDuran @ 09/30/2008 at 5:34 am

I’ll answer my own ?… :)
From the Telegraph…

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/mandrake/3089499/Margaret-Hodge-has-told-Gordon-Brown-she-wants-to-leave-say-friends.html

“The other woman on Bond’s arm

Although he is in a long-term relationship with Satsuki Mitchell, the American film producer, Daniel Craig will be taking another woman to the glittering “Tribute to Ian Fleming“ at the London Palladium on Oct 5.

There is, alas, no scandal: it’s his mother, Olivia. Hopefully, the doughty former schoolteacher will be able to keep some order among the host of big names attending, including the former 007 Sir Roger Moore and Bond baddies such as Christopher Lee and Toby Stephens. “

KittyDuran @ 09/30/2008 at 5:37 am

Well, the article refers to Sats as a film producer… Is that a title you can keep for life or do you need to keep up the “practice”? Hmmm….

I think thats sweet bringing his Mum, I think because she will be able to cherish that moment more maybe than Sats..at the Palladium with older actors..more her generation really…after all Satsuki will be with him for the Royal premiere and the rest.

A good memory for her.

tigerlily @ 09/30/2008 at 8:12 am

Now, now Kitty be a nice kitty cat!! lol! ; )

Lou lover no luck on the bag front, sorry, but i’ll be in London end of October will keep my eye out!

In one article i read it said that Satsuki was Daniel’s PA and thats how they met. But then again they did call her Saskia Mitchell!! So we’ll take it with a pinch of salt!!

KittyDuran @ 09/30/2008 at 8:47 am

To pr… I think it’s a wonderful gesture… and IIRC he’s in good company for doing that. Didn’t Tom Cruise, Tom Hanks or Harrison Ford (or all of them) at one time escort their mums to events?

Ok so i’ve just listened to the full version of Another Way To Die, and i actually think it’s quite good. I know alot of people don’t like the song, but then again there is alot of Bond fans out there who don’t like anything to do with the new rebooted Bond so to speak. I don’t think they are going to be happy until Daniel is replaced by a 6ft actor with dark hair!!
The song is very moody and dark which i think will fit the film perfectly, just as Daniel fit’s the part of James Bond so perfectly!!

Didn’t Cruise bring his mum after he split with Nicole but before he met Katie?

Don’t know about the others though, seems sometimes as if the “mum” is someone to fall back on..

I think though he is bringing her for the experience of it as he is apparently close to her and maybe he feels that she is missing out of the fun. After all, Satsuki gets to go everywhere with him.

I heard that his mum did go to the CR Royal premiere but as a guest at the showing of the film.

Excerpt from The Telegraph:

“There is, alas, no scandal: it’s his mother, Olivia. Hopefully, the doughty former schoolteacher will be able to keep some order among the host of big names attending, including the former 007 Sir Roger Moore and Bond baddies such as Christopher Lee and Toby Stephens.”

Alas no scandal??? Just shows you that the garbage press are just scandalwhores looking for the next piece of dirt. I don’t envy famous people and the **** they have to put up with.

to Kitty Duran:

i think the title film producer will be with her for the rest of her life as well as being Daniel Craig’s gf/wife or whatever she is. She’ll be in his shadow so maybe that’s why she is working for him to boast some form of career?

but working for him isn’t exactly carving out a niche for herself is it? i wonder why she didnt just stay with a production company? maybe it was so she could travel with him everywhere, can’t do both.

also i heard that she started out as his assistant too on “The Jacket”, boy, lucky girl, she really moved up.

This is what Satsuki aspires to be I think..Eva is so elegant..

KittyDuran @ 09/30/2008 at 12:28 pm

Well, pr… I’m NOT a Cruise fan… so I wouldn’t know about the split before Katie… :)

I think Sats probably just wanted to rest before the flurry of premieres for QOS.

KittyDuran @ 09/30/2008 at 12:33 pm

Tiger, if Sats was Daniel’s PA before major stardom then she knows the PR business from both sides so she probably comes across as more forceful and or knowledgeable (if what some are saying is true) in those meetings. I’m sure if PR people at those meetings are used to companions of stars being there but in the background - her behavior (once again, if it’s true) would be a pain.

Just my 2 cents.

to 334:
rest? the QoS prem isnt until the end of Oct!!! I don’t think that’s the case, I think he would like his Mum to experience this one.

maybe Sats didnt want to go or maybe he wanted his Mum there.

Daniel lover @ 09/30/2008 at 12:49 pm

Sats Lover posted three times and I could not post once last night. Will try again, but don’t remeber what I was going to say. Oh well. I think it is wonderful Daniel is taking his Mum to the QofS Prem. People will jump in and say that Sats and Daniel have broken up so good thing he mentioned taking his Mum beforehand. I love a man who loves his mother, don’t you? You rock Daniel! Can’t wait to see pictures of him in better shape.

I dont think she was his PR just his set assistant. she dated him while she finished off some of her other projects then moved to london.

The became his PA as well as gf.

tigerlily @ 09/30/2008 at 2:20 pm

So the big question is…what is it that Satsuki actually does?? Is she a film producer or a PA or a PR or just Daniel’s girlfriend??? Does anyone actually know the truth??

to Eva rocks!!! @ 09/30/2008 at 3:10 pm

maybe satsuki should hire eva’s stylist. failing that, she should make friends with eva. i’m sure eva would be willing to teach satsuki the basics. i just saw a picture of satsuki on dedicated to daniel. she was wearing this really ugly grey/silver dress with some kind of weird silver things on it. i’d be willing to bet eva would have made sure satsuki did not wear that thing.

to 339 and 340 @ 09/30/2008 at 3:29 pm

I think that was the dress to the Golden Compass premiere, yes you either loved that or hated it…top marks to her for being brave though.

I think Sats started off being his gf then it moved into the PA position so she could earn her “own” money and put to good use her exposure in the film world. If she was going to give up her career then I’m sure she wanted something else for her to do that she felt was productive. I’m sure his time is precious so she handles these things, any A lister has the same procedure.

On another note, I think the champagne he bought (earlier) was for a belated 40th bday/wrap QoS celebration for himself, remember he celebrated in Colon, Panama..I’m sure many of his family and his/her friends didnt go to it and they hadnt seen him for 6 months odd. That’s probably why they travelled to Portland, same thing, for them to spend time with her family.

just my two cents worth.

This dress?

That pic of the dress was removed from the getty image but I think we are on the same page.

That other pic is from when they were filming in Panama I believe. Day off and thats his bodyguard in the back.

She likes that scarf doesnt she? Why wear a scarf in a very muggy climate?

Boy, she’s thin isnt she?

She has lost a lot of weight, I didnt realize that much! She is like a stick.

tigerlily @ 09/30/2008 at 4:23 pm

I know alot of you don’t agree with me but i think Satsuki is beautiful. When she smiles her whole face lights up. Maybe if she smiled more often people would start to like her more. So go on Sats show us that gorgeous smile of yours!!

Maybe thats all he sees, is the smile and not the frowns.

Daniel lover @ 09/30/2008 at 5:04 pm

Sorry tigerlily, that smile does not make her beautiful, just happy looking as she should be looking all the time. She has Daniel after all, and anyone who has Daniel should have a smile on her face 24/6. I will give her a day off a week from smiling. Now beautiful is Catherine Jeta-Jones. I would love to look like her. That’s beauty.

to tigerlily @ 09/30/2008 at 5:08 pm

she is pretty but not what i would call beautiful. you want beautiful look at eva green; not that is beautiful. having said that, she needs to be consistent in her choice of hair style and clothing. a gorgeous smile does not hide a god awful dress; one of many she has worn. it also does not hide messy hair, clothes that are not properly pressed, sweaters that you can see a bright colored bra through, and jeans that are so long she’s actually walking on the hem. get a stylist girl, preferably the same one that eva works with.

thirty something @ 09/30/2008 at 8:14 pm

Tigerlily , you speak as though Satsuki is so knowlegeable in the industry. Can you tell me exactly where she attained all this knowledge. She was a production assistant and 2929 producitons on the film The Jacket - where she met Daniel so again where is the experience?

I personally find her very unattractive but I agree about her horrible style choices. Why does Daniel not find her appearance embarrassing to be around?? For example this scarf thing looks so ridiculous. HE LOOKS LIKE A PUREBRED AND SHE LOOKS LIKE THE WINNER IN AN UGLIEST MUTT CONTEST.

it was in Italy while filming Bond

What is with the whacko scarf? Is she trying to hide her adam’s apple??

I hear he was in The Hampton’s, NY until last weekend. Apparently he was seen in a restaurant holding a baby posing for pics.

http://www.nypost.com/seven/10012008/gossip/pagesix/007_baby_boom_131464.htm

ONE newborn baby got to meet James Bond. During a baptism celebration at Nichols restaurant in East Hampton Saturday, Daniel Craig was lured in by the sound of bagpipes. “He walked in and ended up holding the baby and posing for photos,” said our source. Craig is in New York promoting his newest 007 flick, “Quantum of Solace.” According to the source, “He loves the Hamptons and has been spending a lot of time out there.”

I heard he was back home though.

tigerlily @ 10/01/2008 at 8:16 am

Satsuki is not a conventional beauty but she does have her own unique look, which makes her an interesting beauty if you understand what i mean!! Heike Makatsch is the same in my opinion, so maybe this is what Daniel is attracted to. When my husband saw Heike he said “So Daniel did use to have taste in women” But then my husband’s business partner thinks Satsuki is stunning. It’s all down to personal taste!!

I think she is stunning personally. A person that would make you look twice. Heike was that way too yes.
You know, maybe he is attracted to personality/talent/intellect as well!

tigerlily @ 10/01/2008 at 8:52 am

When you don’t know someone people tend to judge them on their looks and body shape, because you can’t see personality, talent and intellect. Only when you get to know someone do you discover these things. So yes Daniel is more then likely attracted to these thing too.

where do you see that pictures of daniel and satsuki walking down the street? I try the photobucket site but I dont see anything………….

What is stunning and beautiful about the gf? Stunning and beautiful how??? She is downright ugly

To #361
That’s your opinion and you’re entitled to it but it’s not everyones opinion. There are some people out there including myself who think different.

shes too hermy to be considered beautiful

than thats his taste and his entitled to it

so he likes the ladyboys

production assistant is menial /low pay/ contract work/ unsociable hours/ travel and long periods spent away from home.

it involves alot of admin work and org stuff like accounts/ various expenses/ hotels and travel arrangments/ hiring equipment/ studios/ dealing with getting permission to use copyrighted music.
also have to copy scripts and call sheets and make sure everyone gets a copy.

Whoever is saying that Satuiki has extensive knowledge of film business is wrong.
Its just PA type admin work. You are too busy/ tired to learn anything about real filmmaking.

then that is what she helps him with then..sorting out his travel, etc
while reaping the benefits of not being paid menially and travelling first class.

oh and the rest of it of course, being with Daniel in a personal relationship

I do remember seeing her in a clip watching Daniel while he was filming FOAF..really staring hard at him when he acted. maybe she gives her feedback on the characters he portrays.

i meant all three above posts to 366!

Do you have a link fot this clip?

to 369: where do you see that clip of daniel shooting flashbacks of a fool and she was there with him?? I never saw any video like that!

KittyDuran @ 10/01/2008 at 2:24 pm

To 366… I do a lot of that stuff where I work now… but I have no Daniel Craig in my bed at night!

Where do I sign up???

;)

to 371:

i saw it on preview for FOAF: behind the scenes of..I don’t have the link.sorry..it was the scene of him on the beach..she was there walking parallel to him (albeit behind the camera tracks) and staring intensly..I’m sure her thoughts are sought after.
there are pics of him and her on the beach during this, her hair is blowing in the wind.

To 373: I couldn’t tell you, maybe contact his agency? LOL!!!!!

to NY Post -i wonder if daniel and satsuki have bought a house in the hamptons and are planning to live there for at least part of the year. they wouldn’t be the first. ralph finnes has bought two properties; one in the meat packing district of new york and a second in hamptons as well. he still uses his home in london as well.
tigerlily: you’re right personality ect count for a lot, you know what it’s the first impression that one makes that is so important. the great french actress catherine deneuve is famous for saying this. there was an interview with her here in france in which she said bluntly: “i tell all these young ladies coming up in the industry that how well they dress will determine how well they are received by their audience. their hair, makeup, clothing, etc must be immaculate.”.
satsuki should stand up and take notice. one can hardly see any personlity when she looks like a mess. maybe daniel and barbara should arrange to have satsuki take lessons from catherine deneuve.

to 374: lol sorry but where do you see the pictures? I’m going to try to find the video!

I dont know whether he has bought a house..he is goes there a fair bit..maybe he just rents a place..im sure we would have heard if he has. good for tax purposes too. i know pierce brosnan has a place there.

it would make sense as he dislikes LA and NY is nearer to london for the trips…

to annie:

maybe Babs and Daniel dont care how Sats is perceived by the public? after all, she is not the star just the gf.

well maye babs and daniel should care how sats is being pereived by the public. maybe daniel doesn’t care he loves her too much for that. but babs should care if for no other reason than public relation concerns. satsuki’s choices clothing, hair, etc does not do her or daniel any credit. she may be just the girl friend but if she is going to attend functions with daniel she should be beautifully dressed and her appearance should be immaculate.
i mean come on, we should not be able to see the color of her bra under the sweater. nor should she be wearing jeans that are so long she’s actually walking on the hem. then there are the dresses and that messy hair. and why does she have to slouch all the time.

if she is giving him feedback on his acting then she is not doing a very good job of it.
he is literally playing himself in FoaF
he also does not have the natural screen prescence to be a leading man but is evidently pushing for these types of roles
i think dan and sats are being too over ambitious

to clara;

I agree with you partially, his earlier roles were very powerful (Some Voices, Love is The Devil, Sylvia) but after Infamous, he seems to have gone downhill really..not one hit apart from Bond. He is laying a lot on Defiance to get him recognized as a leading man, if this film doesn’t make it then he will find it tough.

For such an acting talent as he is, I think he is just addressing the wrong scripts, aiming for something that doesnt fit him or maybe he is burning out. Maybe he feels that as he’s good as Bond, he’ll stay with the role longer than he first anticipated?

He will have to fight typecasting that is why I think he’ll get less bulked up as the years go on and be less of the “sex symbol”.

They say he is hungry for an Oscar, well, his choices seem to have gone a bit haywire after meeting her (that’s if she had any input).

to add:

I think his prescence on screen has become more self concious..when he was younger, he was more powerful and more “hungry” in a role. I think he relies on that smirk too much and the pouting, he needs to relax.

He said in the interview about plastic surgery “maybe in another five years”

hope the man was joking!!!

well, if daniel does a good job in defiance he could be considered for an oscar nomination. look at the subject matter. the true story of jewish brothers who escaped into the forest and in the process saved the lives of 1000 plus jews. the director is ed zwick and lord knows hollywood may feel he’s overdue for an oscar as well. i think defiance will find an audience. there are a lot of people who want to see it. then there’s this film he supposed to be making; lucifier in which he plays the devil himself.

Why would he look to the hermy gf for acting help?? What a recipe for diaster. Maybe he has trouble making reasonable decisions. on his own. I find hilarity in the fact trhat she fancies herself the superior being of the movie industry. I think that she’ll likely pull him down. Apparently he doesn’t see that he is judged by otherswhen he hangs around her.

to 381 & 382

you’ve hit the nail right on the head
he is too self conscious and insecure in front of the camera, thats where the poutyness (i know thats not a word) comes from.

in The Mother he disappeared completely into the character
in Infamous he made a good effort but kept on drifting in and out of character, at one point he even drops his US accent, he is overshadowed by Clifton Collins more subtle potent perf. in Capote
in the Bond film he is insecure about his masculinity and pumps up to show that he is a killer contrast that with Javier Bardem as Chigurh he just changes his thinking. in other words he acts.

I’m glad you see it as well as me, I feel he has regressed in his acting..FOAF was a very lame effort on everybody’s behalf… I was expecting a tour de force with that one.

Whe Daniel became Bond, I and and many other people thought “No, not him, what is he thinking, it’ll ruin his “hunger” (that is the only word I can think of) and demeanour of the approach he takes to his roles”….

Oh well, time will tell, I think he should take some time off to regroup (I think that might happen) and focus on smaller films as the big budget ones aren’t the ones that suit his style.

He needs something in the fashion of “Layer Cake”, he supports the BFI so why not take advantage of all the great smaller budget scripts floating around.

He needs to stay away from H/Wood and not fall into his own stereotyping.

He needs to immerse himself more I feel.

The role in Defiance is still not as deep as I’ve seen him in previous roles (yes I can see this from the trailer)..he still looks like he’s too worried about looking good.

In The Mother as Darren, yes he was a litle overweight, unkempt, etc…the role as Tuvla in Defiance looks as if he just stepped out of a five star luxury hotel onto the set not living in the forest roughing it.

I’m not bashing him as I think he has a great talent but something has to change about his choices and presentation of his characters.

I doubt that superSats would allow him to leave Hollywood> She wants to throw her weight around as much as possible. I think he needs to get away from her

well if she has had and has any influence on his career, I agree, he should get away from her - her “career’ has been a non-starter so does she live/work vicariously through him?

tigerlily @ 10/02/2008 at 1:57 pm

Oh come on i don’t think she drags him around by the balls!! He does have a mind of his own.

whether he should immerse himself more in a role is beside the point. in hollywood it’s the subject matter that dictates whether a film/actor will get nominated. there are people here in LA that are talking about the film already. these are people who have seen the early rushes and in some cases have already seen the film.

daniel is has taken the role of a real person. a man, along with his brothers, who saved the lives of over a thousand jews. tuvia beliesky is a hero in eyes of some of people who’ve seen this film. for them, giving daniel craig the oscar nomination may be their way of honoring the real man.

immersing yourself in a character is the point of acting otherwise you aren’t.
i should hope Daniel does dig deep into his characters rather than portraying them just to “honour” their memories…plaques on walls can do the same thing

The Academy isnt going to dish out out an Oscar just because they want to honour someone although considering the subject of this film, there will be a lot of partial voters I’m sure. There also has to be some talent and depth there, although considering some Oscar winners, I tend to believe they overlook that at times.
I hope Daniel will not win one just based on that kind of thinking, I would want to win an Oscar based on the fact that my role blew people out of the water. I’m sure he would feel the same way.

i think he’s in a acting rut, he’s ran out of emotional turmoil he had when he was younger.
which is to be expected as he is 40 and his life/relationships are stable and boring now.
i think he is chasing fame and wanting to be classed as a lead actor thats where all the insecurity regarding his appearance comes from.
have you noticed that for the last 2 years he is trying to be self consciously sexy?

Yes Clara, very well said!

Emotionally burnout. He is trying way too hard.

The angst he had has now gone and is replaced with someone who is fighting, I think, with what he wants and what is presented to him.

Middle age 40 angst? Let’s see where this takes him. Please Daniel, do not become a prisoner of your own pout! I admire you too much.

Better than ‘Chasing Debra Winger” - one of Satsuki’s efforts!

Maybe he looks to her for some inspiration as he’s is utterly exhausted. Well he looks it.

where daniel gets classfied as a lead actor will depend a lot on how well he does in defiance. and how well his performance is received by the critics. the reality is that for daniel doing bond films will have to end one day. just as they did for pierce brosnan, roger moore, and sean connery.

the trick is to be known for more than just bond. to get directors like martin scorcese and casting agents to see be able to see daniel for a role that has nothing to do with james bond. that’s what daniel is trying to do. that’s why he did defiance and why he’s filming lucifier. also why he will more than likely do hannibal as well. daniel wants to duplicate the achievement of sean connery; win an oscar for a role totally different to that of james bond.

I agree but working just for an Oscar isn’t the key, there has to be passion and hunger for the roles…something, I feel, that Daniel has in short supply as of late (maybe due to him overstretching himself and listening to much to the “yes” men) which has led to a few box office bombs.

Yes, a lot is riding on Defiance, I hope that his hunger for recognition as a lead actor does not overshadow the film itself.

His new GQ interview raised my eyebrows, all not in a good way.

Just my thoughts.

to 402:

“Hadrian” NOT “Hannibal”…two diff blokes!

i haven’t seen the interview in GQ. what month is it and is it the british edition?? in any case, what exactly did daniel say that would raise eyebrows? somehow i don’t think ed zwick would allow any actor’s ego to interfere with filming.

KittyDuran @ 10/03/2008 at 5:53 am

To 407… I agree about nothing too controversial IMHO. Though, some, if they haven’t read a interview with Daniel, might be “offended” by his frequent use of the “F” word.

tigerlily @ 10/03/2008 at 8:00 am

Daniel swears???…..no i don’t believe that!! LOL!! ; )

to f***ing he does.

f**k, to f***ing RIGHT he does. Can’t blame the man.

to #405
ed zwick worked with tom cruise who is known to be egotistical power hungry trumped up shortarse.
zwicks films are very hollywood, formulaic and shallow, over sentimental as the best friend always dies, completley geared towards awards season.
he can’t concisely end a film to save his life.

i still like glory eve though it was historically inaccurate, not blood diamond which was taking a serious issue and giving it a hollywood gloss

just an afterthought
daniel is obviously chasing an oscar as he turned down Fernando Meirelles Blindness for Defience

Dont mean to be cynical but I don’t think Daniel will get an Oscar nod for Defiance. It may get other ones for Best Cinematography, maybe even Best Film. I don’t think H/Wood and the Academy rates Daniel as a force to be reckoned with yet and playing Bond, whether you think it or not, is somewhat of a noose for him.

As we know, it’s all politics at the end of the day.

Having seen the Blindness film at a film festival, it is clear that Daniel was not interested in doing a very abstract film that only Meirelles can do, instead he opted for the H/Wood heavyweight - obvious choice for anyone if they are chasing an Oscar.

Has Daniel (the only who has beautifully played some delicate and complex characters in the past) sold himself out?

I am very aware he has a mind of his own but maybe he needs to listen less to the “power hungry” people that may be around him.

Breakdown of Dan and Satsuki:

Red Carpet: hold hands - check
Off Red Carpet and don’t know paps are there - hold hands sometimes - check
Off Red Carpet when there know paps ARE around - no holding hands (maybe) - check

i saw blindness as well. it was a god awful bore. thank god daniel had the good sense to get himself out of the project when he did. instead he went to defiance with ed zwick. just because he chose to go with zwick instead of blindenss doesn’t mean daniel sold out. it means that he (daniel) decided that blindness was not the right project for him. actors do that all the time; turn down projects.

yeah zwick is a hollywood heavyweight but he makes some good films. and why shouldn’t daniel try to get an oscar if wants to?? personally i want to see defiance because it’s a true story.

Dan and Sats-the Royal Couple @ 10/03/2008 at 12:42 pm

true stories dont always play out well on the big screen..

http://www.hellomagazine.com/vote/pastwinners/elegantwoman.html
Sats won her Monthly in Hello

http://www.hellomagazine.com/vote/mostattractiveman/month/index.html
Dan is up for this month.

if they both win the Final at the end of the year, they will be King and Queen of Hello!!

(Magazine love kissing up)

No harm in wanting an Oscar, its whether th Academy will nominate you. If you don’t know already, it’s not always fair…politics between studios mainly determine the votes…that is why some great performances are overlooked sometimes..
Zwick is a bit of an outsider there but the content of the movie might stir a lot of emotion with the heads of some studios.
So will they vote for the movie because of the message/emotional history of the movie or the acting? Rarely is it both.

to 422:

why do they use old pics? that is a fairly old pic of dan when he was in Austria filming (on the opera stage)..at least it wasnt two years old like the gf’s.

fishy.
