He must be really, REALLY smart, cuz...yikes. :shocked:

[dissention]

Yikes is right. He's whoreanus.

However, this is from The Sun and they're essentially a tabloid rag. :laugh: Just the other day it was reported that MGM wants Brosnan back after all, but that if he doesn't do it, the new Bond will be Julian McMahon (who I think would be FANTASTIC). I wouldn't mind Clive Owen, though, because I <3 him.

[mylittledemon]

The guy doesnt even look the part. To be Bond, you have to look the part. It's not like Batman where you can hide in the costume. Sheesh.

Exactly!

That's why I'm rooting for either Julian McMahon or Clive Owen all the way. They look like James Bond.

Clive Owen occasionally steps into Lindsey's shoes as the leading actor in all of my fantasies... how fab would he be as Bond! he was sooo hott in Closer... very *F*able!

This is SO not James Bond. :eek:

I want Pierce Brosnan back. :distress: :nod:

HELLLOOOO HUGH JACKMAN :eek:

HELL NO.

He's way too pretty and queeny. :laugh:

[ryan8472]

HELL NO.

He's way too pretty and queeny. :laugh:
I pretty much agree. I might say maybe to Hugh, but most likely not. It's either Pierce or Clive, or I boycott. :laugh:

[strandinthewind]

HELL NO.

He's way too pretty and queeny. :laugh:

and Moore was butch :laugh:

Seriously, I think Jackman could be great.

Of course, I think compared to Connery, they all suck, so . . . . :laugh:

[dissention]

I was more into Jude Law in that movie, but Clive Owen is a marvelous actor. I'd love to see him as Bond. Brosnan is one of the best Bonds, but he's a bit too geriatric for it now, IMO. Either Owen or Julian McMahon would make me squeal with delight. :nod:

[ryan8472]

I dunno....Julian McMahon just does not look like James Bond. :distress:

[strandinthewind]

. . Julian McMahon would make me squeal with delight. :nod:

He is the poorer version of Jackman :laugh:

I sooooo want ole Hugh "I am NOT the boy next door :] :] " Jackman to get it :mad:

:laugh:

[dissention]

and Moore was butch :laugh:

Seriously, I think Jackman could be great.

Of course, I think compared to Connery, they all suck, so . . . . :laugh:

I hated Roger Moore. :laugh:

I just don't think I could get into Jackman. He doesn't look Bond-ish to me. I do like him, though.

[dissention]

Are you on crack?! :lol:

http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0573037/

If it would interfere with the deliciousness that is Nip/Tuck, I don't want him to play Bond. But if he could do it on a hiatus, I'm all for it. :D

He looks like Jackman on a bad day in that pic. :laugh:

Seriously, the two could be brothers based on appearance.

[dissention]

I sooooooo don't see any resemblance other than the fact that both are Australian. :laugh: Jackman is too perky for Bond! Ever since he was on Broadway as the boy from OZ, man.

I just know that my choices are Clive Owen and Julian McMahon. No one else. :p That guy that supposedly has been cast as Bond is barfugly to the extreme and I could never buy into him as James Bond. NEVER.

I love McMahon, but I think he's a bit to rough, not quite sophisticated enough for Bond. He sure is hot, though. I still like Pierce as Bond, don't think he's to old, and he's my fave of all the Bonds.

Watching him on Nip/Tuck, I think he's smarmy and sophisticated (and definitely hot) enough to be Bond. :nod: I just could not get into Hugh Jackman or that other dude that Christy posted about, my gawd. He looks like a Russian mail clerk.

Brosnan is over the hill, Die Another Day made me wince. The song and the movie. :sorry:

[Gypsy-Rhiannon]

Julian McMahon would be my choice. He is so lush. He can be rough with me anyday! ;)

:laugh: I was going to say that, but figured someone else eventually would, so I didn't. :laugh:

And can you believe no Nip/Tuck until SEPTEMBER?!?! I'm going to go insane. But Joan Rivers, Alec Baldwin, and Famke Jannsen are all coming back, so that's good. If you want any spoilers, let me know, I have a few. :laugh:

I'm watching the new season now. Sean has just found out about Matthew not being his son.

As for spoilers I think I have read most of them!

Wow, you had to wait a long time for season two. :eek: That episode was tops. Dylan Walsh was scary.

I'm still convinced I know who The Carver is, too. They aren't going to pull one over on me. :laugh: And I can't wait for the new Kimber storyline that I read about, it should certainly be juicy.

We had to wait forever! This is why I read most of what was happening when it was airing in the US!

So spill.... who do you think The Carver is? And Kimber storyline?

I still think Adrian is The Carver. He ain't dead. And it has to be a man, anyways, because he raped that male model.

Kimber is pregnant with Sean's kid! :eek: Now that wench Julia can see how it feels.

Adrian is about the only guy it could be... unless it isn't one of the main charactors...

I just could not get into Hugh Jackman or that other dude that Christy posted about, my gawd. He looks like a Russian mail clerk.


That's what I thought too, he looks Russian!

I like Timothy Dalton, think he's sexy, but I've never seen a Bond film, so whatevah.

I can't take my bond without some kind of accent. He doesn't have one. He might be better than that other guy, (the one they picked) but that guy does look more sophisticated than McMahon, IMO. But he looks kind of evil, like he should really play bond's nemesis. :D

Well, he has an Australian accent, but I guess that wouldn't suit Bond. :laugh:

I just want someone who's nice to look at for two hours, not that whoreanus guy.

Julian McMahon has an australian accent? What? :confused: never heard it.

I can't say I've ever noticed it either.

Pip

[dissention]

He's from Australia, but from what I can tell, he turns the accent on and off. I saw him on the TV Guide Channel promoting last season of Nip/Tuck and it's THICK when he uses it.

Of course, the far more talented and handsomer Jackman can do an American Western accent (in song no less), an American accent, and many others.

WE WANT HUGH

Oh. weird. Maybe he could fake a great british accent then. He just moved higher on my list.

He's not better looking than McMahon, dude. :laugh: I like Jackman, but not as Bond. And he's too busy with those X-Men movies, anyway!

I've never seen a James Bond movie and can't say I'm terribly interested in them....but I'll jump on the Huch Jackman truck...because I <3 him :D He's very nice to look at and putting him in a Bond movie might actually motivate me to sit through one :D

[amber]

He's not better looking than McMahon, dude. :laugh: I like Jackman, but not as Bond. And he's too busy with those X-Men movies, anyway!
I concur with alla this.

[dissention]

I concur with alla this.

:thumbsup:

But I will take Jackman over that Russian mail clerk that they've supposedly given the role to. My word. Actually, I'd even take Tom Cruise over him and you know how I can't stand Le Choppers. :laugh:

I wouldn't be opposed to Jude Law, either, even though he's so not Bond.

[hayley]

My favorite Bond rumor was that they were looking at Dougray Scott (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0779084/). Mmm. Drool.

I dunno. I can see the potential in Daniel Craig. Or, more accurately- I totally don't care. I mean, the Bond movies suck anyways now, so who cares if they have a sucktastic new Bond?

I do think Hugh Jackman would make a totally sucky Bond, though.

I think Jude could easily be Bond. It would be a new paradigm, "blond Bond" :p
I don't know enough about Evil bond nemesis guy to say if he will be good or not. Heck, maybe he will! Could he be worse than Dalton or Moore? Doubt.
"le Choppers" hehehehehe. LeGay Choppers. :laugh: I would like to add that I DO like Bond movies, therefore I DO care. mmmm, high tec gadgets, smarmy cute men, evil nemeses, hot chicks, near sex scenes, and stunts, stunts, stunts!!!! :)

[wondergirl9847]

Dougray Scott.....mmmmm......yum. :nod:

[madformac]

There's nobody I've seen lately that can fill Brosnan's well polished Church's shoes and Brioni suit.. :distress:

It's a shame but I feel he's such a tough one to follow that nobody will work. Even two of Pierce's 4 films were crap in my opinion (Tomorrow Never Dies and Die Another Day) although the other two are amongst the finest in the series.

Ewan McGregor would be great but he's too good an actor to do it. (Can't have Obi-Wan as Bond too!)

Hugh Jackoff is well, there you go...

Daniel Craig is f**kin' balding, which Bond isn't. Owen isn't tough enough. Dougray Scott would be a good choice I guess but until the next film is finished I'm reserving judgement...

[strandinthewind]

What is with all the anti Jackman vibe :mad: :mad: :mad:

:laugh:

[madformac]

:laugh:


He's not British dude, look at Lazenby's creation, totally crap in what is one of, if not THE best Bond film..

He's a British agent and should remain so.. In fact he's English so if you remove all the previous non English Bond's you are left with dear Roger Moore.

Jackman is OK but he ain't Bond...

[dissention]

I think Jude could easily be Bond. It would be a new paradigm, "blond Bond" :p

I'd dig it. And he would lend a bit of realism to the character because, c'mon, Moore would never have gotten those hot women. And it was a bit of a stretch for Brosnan to get Halle Berry. Denise Richards, sure, because she just naturally looks easy. :laugh: I love watching him, so I could get into it.

LeGay Choppers! Sounds like one of his nicknames in the bedroom. :laugh: The new Bond movie Casino Royale should be good, they just need a kick ass Bond. It would have been awesome if Quentin Tarantion had agreed to direct, but since Brosnan won't be Bond, he won't do it. Sucks, but that's life. :laugh:

The Sheryl Crow song from Tomorrow Never Dies was ATROCIOUS. My ears bled.

Ewan McGregor would be great but he's too good an actor to do it. (Can't have Obi-Wan as Bond too!)

I think I'm the only person on the planet that cannot stand McGregor. :lol:

Beats me, but it wasn't pleasant to the ears. :laugh: "Tomorrow never diiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiies." Ugh, gag me.

As for McGregor, there is such an urgent need for him to take a bath, I can't get over it. Hose that bastard down and scrub him with Ajax!

Yeah... I knew he was. Isn't he the son of a former Aussie Prime Minister or something? And he was married to Danni Minogue. Also he was in the dodgy Aussie Soap.. Home and Away.

:wavey: I'll give him a bath! I love Ewan. Yum. Yum. Yum. Yum. Which is why there's no way in hell I'd want him to be Bond.

I just don't think Hugh Jackman is right for it- part of it probably IS that I now view him as a little campy because of Peter Allen. I'd just rather he didn't. I also think that Bond needs to be from Great Britain to follow with tradition. Pierce Brosnan's Irish, but he did grow up in the UK. I just find the idea of an Australian Bond, even if they could pull the accent off, strange. Clive Owen or Dougray would've been good.
