Turns out sometimes James Bond only has to work for 007 seconds. Daniel Craig, who played James Bond in the most recent Bond movie made an apperance at the New York Auto Show last week. He was there on behalf of Land Rover to show off the new 2014 Range Rover. All he had to do was drive the Range out onto the stage, step out and waive hello and walk off. Literally a total of 7 seconds. For those 7 seconds of his life he was paid $1 million dollars!! That breaks down to about $143,000 per second. What a life! Check out all the work he had to do after the jump.
This Years Oscars Will Feature A Tribute To James Bond !!!!
Last year’s Skyfall has become the first Bond film to gross more than $1 billion worldwide, and the film marked 50 years of James Bond movies, starting with 1962’s Dr. No.Through 23 films (24 including Sean Connery’s comeback in 1983’s “unofficial” Never Say Never Again), the series has only won two awards: 1964’s Goldfinger and 1965’s Thunderball both picked up wins for Best Effects. Still, Skyfall’s Oscar stock may have gotten a serious boost from its recent Producers Guild of America nomination for Best Picture.The Oscar show will air Sunday, Feb. 24. Russ B
This Weeks Box Office Numbers!! Skyfall Takes Over The Number 1 Spot!!
When James Bond’s latest assignment goes terribly wrong, it leads to a calamitous turn of events: Undercover agents around the world are exposed, and MI6 is attacked, forcing M to relocate the agency. With MI6 now compromised inside and out, M turns to the one man she can trust: Bond. Skyfall eased 35 percent to $10.8 million, which brings its domestic total to an incredible $261.4 million. The movie is now a day away from passing The Amazing Spider-Man ($262 million) to become Sony’s highest-grossing movie in over five years. Russ B
James Bond Star Admits What??
James Bond star and 007 agent, Daniel Craig, has admitted that he does NOT do his own stunts and that he doesn’t even like to do his own driving. I don’t know I think I would have rather just thought he did his own stunts lol, but he rather be safe. The courageous agent we watch or will watch in the new movie “Skyfall” rather be in the backseat then taking charge of his infamous cars. Hit the jump Steph B

In this episode of Jay Leno’s Garage, Jay meets a car that he thought he would never get a chance to drive; the Toyota 2000GT. And yes, we’re extremely jealous. Funk Flex
