The Daniel Craig movies, to me?
They're just not James Bond movies.
They are movies with a guy called James Bond in them, and in their own right they're ok films...just...not what I want.

I wonder if maybe one day there'll be something more like a fusion of the two.

GoldenEye is one of my favorite Bond flicks. Yeah...TND & TWINE were fun & watchable but DAD was one of the terrible 007 films ever, IMO.

About Craig films....I really love Casino Royale, though it was a great comeback for Bond in contemporary / modern era & really a fantastic addition for a change than any other usual bond flicks. Loved its gritty, less action but more serious approach in terms of an espionage thriller. But yeah...QOS not only comes with a weird title but totally a misfire as a Bond flick.
And as for your 'fusion of the two'...I thought SKYFALL kind of falls in that category. Really looking forward to see SPECTRE as soon as it hits the theater here.
