Mansuki and Marina @ 01/20/2009 at 10:01 am

Hey, danny boy loves big boobs, he is up man, do you know it? His ex gf Marina Pepper said it. Mansuki can offer to Daniel her man´s body, she has no boobs, no ass, she is ,,I,, spindly. Mansuki has nothing for our danny boy.Poor danny boy, but it´s his mistake, he chose her and he must be happy. Mansuki must open legs for it she wants keep danny boy for long time.

Well judging by the recent St. Barts holiday photo’s, i’d say Daniel is more than happy with Satsuki’s body. Infact he couldn’t keep his hands off her body!! Lucky girl!! ;)

To ever present:which woman? @ 01/20/2009 at 11:40 am

Hey man, just wait, that new lady has boobs and ass, danny boy will be most happy boy of the world….More happy than with mansuki´s body….I wait, what will happen between Mansuki and new  lady, if mansuki will be very jealous of new lady and if mansuki will want to fight with her. I hope new lady will be proper fighter and she´ll win heart of danny boy. Yes, Mansuki has danny boy, but she has not heart of danny boy…Mansuki does one´s nut, she wants to get marriage with danny boy, she is persistent  woman which guards properly danny boy.   It will be typical situation if another  woman appears in the middle plans of Mansuki and she easily gets it what Mansuki tries and wantsfor a long time.It´s typical situation, I think I heard somewhere about it.Bad and good woman, oh, they fight because of danny boy! I am interesting what will do danny boy and which woman will be scream and which will be that ,,better-yell with laughter.

Defiance may not be setting the world on fire but the reviews are scorching the majority of the time and Daniel does give one of his best performances, if not the best yet.
The release date did not help the film when it came to awards and it was caught up with three other holocaust movies.

Jennifer Aniston @ 01/20/2009 at 11:51 am

The rumor is now he is teaming up with Jennifer Aniston for a romantic comedy, “She’s All That”. Believe it when I hear it!

I hope Satsuki is not the co producer on this one! I have a very shaky feeling that Daniel might be talked into doing something like this.

The actual reviews are mediocre (as opposed to the paid reviews on the tv commercials) and his accent is awful (downright laughable) on the trailers.

ever present @ 01/20/2009 at 1:19 pm

Re #81
I hope to God that rumour is not true, because if it is it would be a complete waste of his talent. I’d longer respect him as an actor or his talent and i certainly wouldn’t be a Daniel Craig fan anymore…that’s for sure. Please, please, please, please say it’s not true!!!

Hey people, please, look at my new blog for danny boy:
http://www.risico007.blogspot.com

the reviews are not mediocre, they are split and that’s a great difference. It’s kind of love it or hate it. And even the bad review mostly blame Zwick’s storytelling and almost ALL reviews say that the acting of Craig, Schreiber and Bell is great.
I personally like the movie very much, because it shows the “bad” side of the Bielski partisans, too, e.g in an early scene where Tuvia takes revenge and executes a Polish police officer who has killed his parents.

Romantic Comedy is not his thing……he is a great actor but not sure about that.

Just finished reading a review about DC being horribly miscast in the role with his blonde hair and blue eyes. All I can say is my 10 year old laughs every time his “Vee vill protekt you!” appears on tv. It’s called over-acting. Lots of promotion for a poor box office showing.

YEAH YEAH YEAH
He’s by far my fav actor, he’s brill!
:)
WE LOVE U DANIEL!!!

when it comes to romantic comedy i think it all depends on the script and who’s directing it. from what i’ve heard people a good comedy is hard to write. it may be really something that he wants to do at this time. he could be bored with all the serious parts.

.

to all: dan in Steve mcQueen @ 01/20/2009 at 6:45 pm

No, I have been reading lots of buzz for Dan to get ready for the upcoming sizzling hot Steve McQueen biopic….that is something he can really get his teeth into…not romantic comedy.- no offense to romantic comedy fans……

No, I don’t think he will succomb to the ROmantic Comedy Pit .
He is a Serious, well trained actor.

i think he knows that acting comedy is not his thing.
it is like a pit that actors can fall into…For Example, Gerard butler after he did “300″- he started the romantic comedy films…and things for him have not been the same since.
No real Academy Award roles with ROmantic Comedy “Jennifer Aniston” parts…..

it seems that Gerard Butler and Matthew McConahay are the kings of the ROmantic Comedy leads now.

i think Daniel is gunning for a great Academy Award role, like he mey have thought that Defiance was for him…

I think Daniel is too serious an actor and his options are wide open to start doing the silly jennifer Aniston/kate Hudson romantic comedy stories, where he is just the romantic lead and that’s it…….

he needs to pick his roles VERY carefully from now on, or else he may have no choice but to take romantic comedies if that is all that is offered to him.

to all: dan in Steve mcQueen @ 01/20/2009 at 7:14 pm

i think that once an actor, a classically trained actor like Daniel, starts doing Romantic Comedies, then it is all downhill from there.
Like sounding the “Death Knell” for actors, most especially with actors who have been entrenched in serious roles.
Many people in the industry wwere laughing at Pierce Brosnan for doing “Momma Mia”, but maybe at that time in his life, he was ready for it.
i personally think he needed the money and a good paycheck……

i think there is a certain “industry” perception on a male actor who goes from heavy, serious roles to romantic comedies- not good perception or bad, I am just saying people may start to see Daniel differently, not really into serious, heavy roles anymore…
His classical training may not be taken into view as much after doing romantic comedy roles…
And then after that…the only roles offered to him are romantic comedies….

i don’t think That Daniel wants to be seen as a romantic comedy lead right now…. it may be too hard to turn the industry perception around.
at least it is a paycheck.

And if by chance, if he DID do a Rom/Com this year, he would have to travel around and promote it, and it may conflict with his next Bond 23 duties…

dan in Broadway this summer?? @ 01/20/2009 at 7:24 pm

Daniel said in one of his tv interviews that he gave last week for Defiance, i think he said it on Regis and Kelly, that he would want to do Broadway theatre or he would be willing to …

Maybe this spring or summer he would do a short broadway play before Bond 23 heats up again…..

or maybe he would do a London West End theatre play….

what bond 23 duties? from what i’ve read there doesn’t seem to be another bond film in the works. i’ve heard that it may not even start filming until 2011. that’s 2 years away. more than enough time for daniel craig to do what ever project /projects he wants and promote them without conflict with bond 23.

what’s happened with economy has really put the “breaks” on some very seious projects here in LA. some of the projects may end up not even being made. case in point; there’s some question as to whether steven spielberg will have the money he needs to make the kind of film he wants on abe lincoln. the people putting down serious money just aren’t willing to do it so quickly anymore.

That’s not true, he said in several interviews that they would get together in about six months and start putting down ideas for Bond 23. They’re not going to wait two years to start working on the next Bond. That would be like a possible knife to the Bond franchise. They have the money to start working on it whenever they want. They have made tons of money from CR and QOS. Waiting two years would be taking a huge risk of people forgetting DC and loosing interest in the franchise. No, they will definitely start filming either late this year or early next year, as soon as they get the story down, which is what they have to work on first, and DC will be part of that process.
I doubt very much he will do any theatre until his Bond contract is over.
As far as comedy, there have been many serious actors, DeNiro, Chaz Palamenteri, to name a couple who have done very silly comedies, and have gone back to serious drama with no problem.
I would love to see DC do a comedy, he would be adorable in it. But not with Jennifer Aniston, I like her, but I think with a different actress, maybe like Eva Mendez or Selma Hayek, maybe even a Bond spoof comedy would probably be hilarious.
I think if he does a comedy he should carefully choose which one it is.
But most importantly, make sure Sats doesn’t have anything to do with the movie, because it seems that whatever she touches, fails. And I’m beginning to think her bad karma is making DC fail also.
I also laugh everytime I see the Defiance trailer, his accent is absolutely horrible. And I agree, casting a blond blue eyed actor to portray Tuvia is a joke. I have read bad reviews, and I just knew that it would bomb.
I have no doubt that if he portrays McQueen he will get an Oscar, but again, make sure Sats has absolutely nothing to do with it. She reminds of a friend of mine, as soon as she touches a plant, it seems to die, she doesn’t have a green thumb. Sats seems to have a talent for making films fail when she’s involved, i.e., FOAF, Black Christmas, Defiance.
DANNY BOY, KEEP HER AS FAR AWAY AS POSSIBLE FROM THE SET IF YOU DO MCQUEEN, THEN YOU WILL GET AN OSCAR. IF SHE HELPS IN ANYTHING AT ALL, IT WILL BOMB, JUST LIKE DEFIANCE.

to 94 RE: keep her away!!! @ 01/20/2009 at 8:23 pm

# 94- Have to AGREE with you …Danny Boy, KEEP HER AWAY from the McQueen set, if you are on it!
ANYTHING she touches will turn to garbage.

The Steve mcQueen Biopic is the next best thing for Daniel, if he chooses to take it, if he is offered the role.

And you are right, Eon Prods has PLENTY of $$$ money now for Bond23 to make on their own, and back it themselves, without any outside help.

to 94 RE: keep her away!!! @ 01/20/2009 at 8:41 pm

as a matter of fact, Danny Boy…..

KEEP HER AWAY from ALL FUTURE FILMS if you want to step up to the Academy Awards podium in accepting your Oscar.

Daniel should have learned this lesson with Defiance and her “expert” LOL! acting advice and scene coaching ….

Any good film that she gets involved with, she will turn to crap.

And any mediocre film that she touches will just turn out to be worse.

just asked someone here in los angeles in a postion to know more than i do about what’s going on. what daniel says is true; ideas are being discussed for bond 23. the writers apparently have been hired to begin work on bond 23 with a release date scheduled for 2011 that is two years away. notice the person i asked says scheduled release date. but we all know what that means. it can be pushed back at any time. MGM hoped the film would be out in 2010 but circumstances won’t allow that. as for filming for bond starting late this year my friend hopes you haven’t bet any serious money on that.

as for the bond franchise having all kinds of money; you have to understand the fear factor here in la when it comes to money now. projects that were given the green light a year ago would have trouble gettting the same go ahead today. it’s all about the return. and let’s face it casino royale and QOS were expensive films to make. yes they made money and the studio got a profit then. but what worries people with money now is whether they could still get a profit from an expensive bond film made in this economy. trust me when i say this; people here are worried because they think it’s going to get much worse.

as for other projects; yes daniel can do them. his bond contract does not prevent him from taking other projects during his “down time”. look at defiance and flash back of a fool. i do think you’re right about defiance; he maybe shouldn’t have done that one. although i don’t know you can keep sats from being involved in any project daniel does. he obviously wants her there. but i don’t think it’s fair to blame sats for the failure of defiance. i think the blame should go to the person who wrote the script and the director.

I don’t believe “your friend” because Bond is not filmed in LA and LA would have no idea what is going on in London. The Bond franchise is completely Brittish. LA people have no idea what they are working on. There is absolutely no way they will wait two years and no one in LA knows what the Bond franchise is doing in Brittain, what meetings they have or what kind of money they have. The Bond movies have nothing planted in America of whatsoever, so “your friend” knows absolutely nothing regarding Bond.
Say whatever you want, I refuse to believe it, because no one in LA would have no way of knowing what is going on with Bond.
Why would they?
What does LA have to do with Bond at all?
NOTHING.
So either you are lying or “your friend” is lying.
And I suspect you’re the lying poster anyway who loves to call her lying posts “experiments” LOL
Do you ever take time to think your lies through? You may want to take a minute to think them through so you don’t sound so stupid.

to 97 RE: defiance blame... @ 01/20/2009 at 8:52 pm

to 97-

if this Sat- what the hell is it person was indeed coaching Daniel on his acting, as I have heard- and if he did “overact” as the critics have been saying, then the failure of his gettting a nomination for ANY award this awards season, she should definately take most of the blame for his lack of nominations….

If she is coaching him on each scene, (and goes over each dailie multiple times, as has been reported) as has been reported but i do not know if this is true, then i am surprised at Daniel bec he certainly DOES NOT NEED HER to tell him how to act in any scene.

Daniel has about 50-60 film roles under his belt and he is natural true talent.
She should keep her nose out of his acting business, because she is stinking it up!

oh noo, not another experiment @ 01/20/2009 at 8:56 pm

oh nooooooooooooooooo!

NOT ANOTHER F**KIN ‘ EXPERIMENT!

#98- you are right!!

F**K OFF LYING POSTER!!
