James Bond

Put off watching A View to a Kill because Grace Jones just gets on my wick.

 

But Christopher Walken is a baller, so I've finally cracked and bought it. It's in my Shanty Box to watch with a beer or two.

 

Grace Jones, though.

She's got a jaw like Desperate Dan.

you really, really need to take a look at yourself

 

pierce brosnan?

 

idiot

 

Calling me an idiot because you happen to disagree with my opinion on something is the mark of a true idiot. You really should grow up, little boy.

 

Moving on... As an observation (and partly in response to this idiot's rebuke) it seems to always be the way that the present Bond incumbent is hailed as "best since Connery", while the predecessor is maligned. No doubt Daniel Craig will be in Brosnan's current position (though the latter looking like Gerry Adams now, doesn't help his cause!) if/when he does walk away before the next Bond film, while his successor will be... the best since Connery.

wee bump for @@OddJob who's returned.

Cheers Cockney

 

I honestly don't know who I think would be a good choice for the new Bond. As random a choice as it could be but if they want another British actor then what about Eddie Redmayne?

He's camper than a row of pink tents.

 

Gerard Butler has the look.

 

Dougray Scott (lovely man and met him in Heathrow) also has the Bond factor.

 

Either would be great choices.

Tom Hiddlestone now odds on?

A more random choice would be Ben Dover.

Not that random if he's the first person you thought about really.

Ha ha yeah that's true, mind you some of the choices that we're getting suggested were just as laughable so you never know

 

Definitely good choices for those two, do you think they'd go for another Scotsman tho? (Even considering the best Bond was Scottish and Fleming wrote the character as such) I just feel they won't for some reason

No idea bluto. Follow him on instagram and you can maybe track his movements if you're a fan boy of his.

Aye, or Theresa Greene.

Interesting conspiracy theory article about the new Bond here (I haven't seen Spectre yet, but have read very mixed reviews, though following Skyfall was always going to be hard).

The wife and I recently ran through our Bond DVD box set and thoroughly enjoyed re-appraising them, especially as we hadn't seen some of them in a decade or more. A few observations I have...

This post reminds me of a guy I worked with. After seeing Daniel Craig's first effort and mentioning that I thought it was pretty good, he responded with something similar to what Jocky posted. The guy had been to see the film about 5 times since it's release to 'truly understand the message being put across'.

 

Made sure I never mentioned Bond in his company again.
