Which character was manly here? Affleck? He was good at his job, mildly mopey, and suffered a crisis of confidence. His character could just have easily been a woman good at her job. There was nothing intrinsically masculine OR feminine about him.

He is a regular pussy when interacting with Judi Dench's "M", who rightly dresses him down for being the shirking sissy he is in the picture. I love Dench, but when she is far more masculine than your Bond lead, that's a fucking problem.
Comparing Craig to Connery or even Moore is like comparing a Ben Stiller character to John Rambo.
