Roger Moore Action! (OK, that was a lame joke...)
Roger "Should Have Been Acting In 'Carry On' Films With His Camp Innuendo Style" Moore? (OK, so that was about the size of it).
 
You think thats bad? Wait till they make Bond a woman. It'll happen, you can count on it.
 
here is :worship: BOND. JAMES BOND. :king:
Connery en Dr. No, matando al Dr Kent.jpg

1. Sean Connery - He's got it all!
2. Roger Moore - A gentleman-Bond, not bad at all.
3. Pierce Brosnan - He's got the look, but not the touch.
4. George Lazenby - Seen the film, can't remember him. Not a good sign.
5. Timothy Dalton - His films weren't very Bondish at all IMO.

Daniel Craig - Haven't yet seen the film, but I've got high expectations. EDIT: Not any more, Soul warrior just crushed them with the image above. :cry:

Are there any more out there with the opinion that Robbie Williams could bring us back to a more Connery-ish Bond, or is it just me? :blush:

Indeed. Next thing you know, they'll be cracking "dumb blonde bond jokes". :shake:

Furry muff. I'm not one to nitpick.

For your info and interest, Helen Fielding, author of "Bridget Jones's Diary", has already penned a (lame attempt at a) female Bond story..."Olivia Joules and the Overactive Imagination".
Considering the number of writers who've tried, and generally failed, to do plummy Bridget Jones one better, it only makes sense that Fielding should take a vacation from the genre she spawned and seek (sort of) greener pastures.

Her new inspiration? Think Ian Fleming.

Fielding's ridiculous, delicious, wildly improbable plot goes something like this: freelance journalist Olivia Joules ("as in the unit of kinetic energy"), formerly Rachel Pixley (her whole family got run over when she was 14), gets bumped from the Sunday Times's international coverage down to the style pages thanks to the titular imagination (e.g., a story about a "cloud of giant, fanged locusts pancaking down on Ethiopia"). In between ducking twittering PR reps and airheaded blondes at a Miami face cream launch party, she uncovers what looks like an al-Qaeda plot, headed by a dreamy Osama bin Laden look-alike, who is either (1) a terrorist, (2) an international playboy, (3) a serial killer or (4) all of the above. Languid, mysterious Pierre Feramo returns Olivia's interest, and thus begins an around-the-world adventure that has plucky Olivia eventually recruited by MI6.

In addition to the fun spy gear (e.g., Chloé shades fitted with a nerve-agent dagger) there are kidnappings, bomb plots and scuba-diving disasters. Olivia is slim, confident and accomplished; ostensibly, she's "painstakingly erased all womanly urges to question her shape, looks, role in life," etc. But she still has her bumbling Jonesian moments, and though she may not need a man, she'll get one in the end. What's wrong with the book: two-dimensional characters, dangling plot threads, the questionable taste of al-Qaeda bombings in an escapist, comic spy novel. What's right: girl-power punch, page-turning brio and a new heroine to root for.

A spoof I dont mind, Olivia Joules and 'girl power' I have no problem with. Its Jane Bond, Agent 007 I have a problem with. I just hope they have the decency to wait till Connery is dead.

I just hope they have the decency and wait till I'm dead.

But.....let's just say they do have a "Jane Bond, Agent 007".....who would be the best actress to play the part?

Post pics if you need to folks :mischief:

Hey thats a good thread idea. Hmm...How about Kate Beckinsale? Nahh, too girly. It would have to be a woman thats hot, but still butch enough that you can believe her kicking ass. Might be best to go with an unknown.

Dig up Connery's body, extract his DNA, replace his Y with a copy of his X, and you'll produce the only woman who can ever come close to playing a She-Bond.
 
Daniel Craig is the coolest James Bond; I can identify more with him, than with Sean Connery, who was taking girls to the ball room... :rolleyes:
 
The character Jane Bond would be...

...beating up people and occasionally be beaten up,
...addicted to gambling,
...addicted to alcohol,
...sleeping with hundreds of men...

I think I'd rather spend the rest of my life in a monestary with no contact with the outer world, than having to go and watch a movie with a woman like that. :dubious:

Angelina Jolie? (pronounced jo-LEE, not JOH-lee, like jolly, sounds too common)

You are so right.
Images speaks louder than thousand words.

The new bond is lame excuse for Bond.
I understand that now after seeing those pics.
You can see it from their eyes and posture.

Connery had both the form and the content.

You mean Jennifer Jason Leigh? ;)
 
So far Sean Connery just before Timothy Dalton and Pierce Brosnan for me. Lanzenby suffered from the plot plus he has a too smooth face, Moore did not play Bond, he made a parody out of him (not that it wasn´t entertaining). Whenever I saw him with a Bondgirl the picture of a grandpa with a daily care nurse came to my mind.

The new one I haven´t seen yet. He is for me on one hand a step in the right direction as he shows that also us blondes can be tough 00 agents, but on the other hand I have more hair in my armpit than he has on his chest which makes him too metrosexual to be a really tough guy.
