It's interesting how many people say they like Craig because he's a more violent, visceral Bond, "closer to the real James Bond," when Fleming's first choice to play the role was David Niven. It's clear the sophistication & wit are what he was interested in portraying. The studio went with Connery because they wanted a more masculin, physical approach.

I'm not saying Craig isn't great. I'm just saying it's interesting....
