It seems you are not the only one not watching Bond for Bond. I will watch it mainly for Ben.

oh yes the Wishaw Ben, totally forgot him Nobody I know is watching Bond for Bond. I also like that Sam Mendes is directing. Oh and Christoph is good, too. Although that "bad German type cast" is a bit boring
I hope one day there will be a James Bond that I like
EDIT: and of course Ralph Fiennes is in it, too! So everyone apart from Daniel Craig. (unfortunately I don't find him attractive either, I like his wife though, wonderful actress)

I liked Daniel Craig long before Bond, and I think he's a good one. But there are so many watcheable actors in the films! Judi Dench was fantastic in Skyfall - definitely worth watching just for her, even if you're not normally a Bond fan, I think. Ben, Rory, etc., don't get a huge amount of screentime, but Judi played a major part in the storyline.

I read the spoiler...I kind of knew.
Wouldn't stop me seeing it and I love Ben Wishaw, too!

I went to see it yesterday and I was very pleased to see Andrew in such a huge movie along with other brilliant actors such as Ben Whishaw and Ralph Fiennes.
Nevertheless, I found that his character wasn't very well written (as wasn't the entire movie!) and therefore he didn't have much to do but I always was very pleased when he came up.
Regarding the spoiler (again, do under no circumstances read that, if you haven't seen the movie yet!):

So I eventually watched Spectre tonight.
I don't really do James Bond.
But it was worth it for Andrew and Ben and wow, what a cast!

Yeah, it was quite a cast for that one. Ben Whishaw as Q is one of my favourite things about Skyfall and Spectre.

He's great in that role, isn't he?
Incidentally just got back from Sainsbury's, where I picked up 'Victor Frankenstein' and 'Whiskey, tango, foxtrot' for £8 the pair...don't mind if I do!

Absolutely.
That sounds like a fairly good deal.

Andrew and Martin, I believe.

Yes, that's right.
