Right? Like, it doesn't actually make his muscles stand out; it makes it seem like he doesn't know what a properly fitted suit is supposed to look like, which undermines the debonair spy vibe.

The point is that Craig!Bond *isn't* supposed to be a debonair spy. That is not the version of Bond that Craig was playing. He took a different angle - the whole idea is that he's basically a thug with a veneer of sophistication over him. They wanted to play up the power and intensity and violence of the character.

First: did you know that you can change the dropdown from Casual HTML to Markdown, which will make it so that the asterisks actually italicize things? I discovered this a month or so ago and it was a gamechanger.

Second, while that's a good point, I don't think having ill-fitting suits succeeded in making it. He doesn't look like a thug; he just looks like he's a poor dresser.

Yep, and those ill-fitting suits look especially tight around the shoulders and armholes which catch or hamper your range of motion, so it isn't even like a character decision that would give him an edge in a fight.

I'm not using asterisks because I want to italicize things. If I wanted to italicize things, I would use HTML and do it. I'm using asterisks because I want to use asterisks to emphasize things.

And second... yeah, that's fair! You don't have to like what they were going for, or think that they pulled it off. I just think it was an intentional choice to make him not a debonair spy.
