best thing I've seen in the news all day

"" Daniel Craig is urging movie bosses to revolutionize the James Bond franchise by including a gay scene involving the superspy in the follow-up to Casino Royale.

The heart-throb actor has also reportedly told studio chiefs he is prepared to film a full frontal nude scene to please both his male and female admirers.

He says, "Why not? I think in this day and age, fans would have accepted it."

"I mean, look at (British TV series) Doctor Who - that has had gay scenes in it and no one blinks an eye." ""

Oh Mr. Craig, I knew I loved you. You are charming. Predictably, there's all sorts of homophobic nastiness floating around on the net in response. All sorts of things that I won't bother repeating here except to say that if you're so threatened by the idea of a gay Bond, you need to go jump in a lake.

I really, really need a James Bond icon.

I don't think there's any call for the sorts of ugly responses that are floating around out there, but, um...this is a little confusing to me, because if there's one thing Ian Fleming's James Bond was, it's straight. The man made it with like three women in every single novel.

I haven't seen the new Bond movie yet; I really want to. I've heard Craig is the best Bond since Connery, which is certainly high praise.

That's awesome. It makes me want to get over my Bond issues and go see this one in support. Well, except for the eye stuff. Can't handle that.

And here I thought nothing could stir me from my not giving a damn about 007. You have done the amazing- made me want to see a Bond movie. Huzzah!

Oh he is the man. I can totally see Bond taking his sex whereever he can get it.

Makes me want to revisit the Villiers issue.

That makes itofficial I LOVE this guy. Not only is he the hottest bond ever, it turns out that he has a brain that is as attractive as his body.

I'm going to write an article for AC about this tonight. I bet it will inspire major flameage.

Well, I'm going to continue it now I think. With M telling Bond to leave off taunting Villiers, and him being all "I don't know what you're talking about."

NEVER.NEVER.NEVER.NEVER.Some things you should just NEVER FUCK WITH.

Daniel Craig should be taken out and SHOT.Or at least severely beaten.His idea is the DUMBEST FUCKING THING I'VE EVER FUCKING HEARD.

Luckily, nooone at all is going to take him seriously, most likely.
