The little novels were my escape as a little kid. I was reading and reading and always escaping. Good times. Although I was disappointed at the choice at first, Craig does a good job no doubt, and Skyfall was awesome, but for me, the role as we know it in the movies will always be owned by Connery. Even if he wasn't the best choice at the time, he owned it. Maybe finding a not so known actor will be the best thing for the fans of the novels, but for the franchise, they will definitely need an actor that can pull in the tickets. One option is to bring the film chronology back, and start the series from the early days. Before the scars, the tortures and the broken hearts that made Bond the bad ass that he was. The new Bond will have to embody a smart seasoned pimp, a counter intelligence expert and ex military all in one.
