The Hunt Is On For The Next James Bond

[zupi_clone]

I've been quite interested in that bmw dvd that was distributed some time ago, somewhere. not because of the product, but because of the directors like ang lee, wong kar wai and mr. woo, to mention a few.

are all the episodes online or what? my mate has a good connection so I could check them out at his place...

ah that sounds great

Adding to that, Timothy (The Usurper) Dalton is Welsh. Moore is the only Englishman to play Bond.

(Although, contrary to popular beleif, the character of Bond is actually of Scottish origin)

It should be McGregor then. Wasnt Russell Crowe mentioned ages ago?

 

[Mick Moss]

McGregor could do well. Gerard Butler is also Scottish. I saw him in a film recently and he's a cocky bugger - always grinning. Would do a good turn as Bond. My top 4 are Owen, Jackman, Butler and McGregor. Yeah Crowe was mooted but he's dissapeared from most discussions for ages. I think hes got too much of a melty face, like a wax sculpture left next to the radiator, and he looks like a nerd without his man-stubble.

= Connery is British, Brosnan is Irish

alright, alright. But doesn't ireland belong to the british isles?

 

[Mick Moss]

Dont ask me. Dunc'll tell you bad my geography is.

 

[Mick Moss]

what about those two?

Bean has already played a baddie in Goldeneye.

 

[Mick Moss]

Heres the bookies odds -

Clive Owen - 11/4
Hugh Jackman - 3/1
Colin Farrell - 7/2
Orlando Bloom - 5/1
Jude Law - 7/1
Christian Bale - 8/1
Gerard Butler - 8/1
Ewan McGregor - 8/1
Greg Wise - 12/1
Jeremy Northam - 12/1
Russell Crowe - 14/1
Robbie Williams - 100/1

good choice there, McGregor that is.


what about Carlyle hehe

too dirty i reckon

 

[Mick Moss]

Carlyle was also the baddie in The World is Not Enough.

 

[Morpheus]

haha, shit, sorry! It's been quite a time since i saw them.

 

[Strangelight]

alright, alright. But doesn't ireland belong to the british isles?

Only really in geographical terms. Great Britain is England, Scotland and Wales. Northern Ireland is part of the UK, and it all gets a bit complicated there

 

[Morpheus]

yeah, complicated, i agree.

so i guess next time i say: geographically the bond actor is chosen from the Uk and the british isles, or just the UK and Ireland, right? but i guess you got me point.

 

[bleed_black_orchid]

I like Colin Farrel.. for the obvious reasons.

 

[StevenK]

they all suck as bond
although ive never liked brosnan either
