In your mind, who should play the next James Bond?

[Deja Q]

Poll question: In your mind, who should play the next James Bond?

Some of these are serious. Others are, you guessed it, quite jocular and flppant in typical Toady fashion! :D

[Dookus]

1. Ewan McGregor

He's perfect for it.

[dolo amber]

4. I gotta agree

He would be excellent in that role.

[RodneyCK2]

14. I was going to vote for Rupert Everett until...

I saw your post. I agree, Ewan McGregor would be great. I have the biggest crush on him and boy can he sing. Although not a requirement for James Bond, unless they did a musical Bond.

OK, scratch the musical idea, but keep Ewan... :-)

[sundog]

16. Only if in great Ewan tradition, he does James Bond full frontal

--

[RodneyCK2]

17. Ok...now you have done it...

I need quiet time. :bounce:

[sundog]

18. Well it's true, every f*cking movie he does has a full frontal in it...

have you seen "The Pillow Book" for god's sake?! :)

[RodneyCK2]

19. No, I haven't, but I am renting it tomorrow night...

is it out on video/DVD? I just saw the movie Little Voice with him in it (good movie btw) and he did an excellent job. No nudity though, sorry to say...sad really.

[sundog]

24. His nickname is "Free Willie"

Yeah, rent "Pillow Book" -- it's a Peter Greenaway movie -- the same guy who did "The Cook, The Theif, His Wife & Her Lover"

Very abstract, very twisted -- pretty wild trip, I dig it

[RodneyCK2]

25. I saw "The Cook, The Theif..." Great movie.

I just read the synopsis of Pillow Book. One happy camper right here. I am off to pester the video store clerk tomorrow, thanks for the suggestion and supporting my Ewan obsession, errr..I mean admiration.

2. Hugh Grant

but that's just me. He must have the IQ of a stick to make the decision that a skanky street whore was a better choice than Elizabeth Hurley, but he looks and sounds like my visualization of Bond. I read the books long before there was a movie and no one has fit my image.

[SOteric]

3. Clive Owen

[roguevalley]

5. Pretty picture. By the way, have any of you heard that Orlando Bloom

is set to play Bond as a young man?

[Ivan Sputnik]

6. I just saw Clive Owen

in "King Arthur." Definite Bond potential.

[Bryan]

7. Damn right.

[Skarbrowe]

8. Nobody but

Clive Owen. I've been watching him on BBC for years. Tall enough, smooth enough, and those eyes.

uh huh

Skarbrowe

[IronLionZion]

9. another vote for Clive

[mikehiggins]

10. Christian Bale

Come on, you know I'm right.

[Kathy in Cambridge]

12. Great minds think alike!

:hi:

[porkrind]

20. I was just going to say that!

He is so cool in "equilibrium". One of my favorite moves!

[Kathy in Cambridge]

11. Rufus Sewell, Christian Bale, Jude Law (too pretty?),

Rufus Sewell is hunky!

[RodneyCK2]

15. Ewwww.. Jude Law...

Where is that emote that hurls? I know it is around here somewhere...no..no...ahhhh, here it is...

:puke:

[Kathy in Cambridge]

27. He's cute for a blond

:shrug:

[Swamp Rat]

13. Jim Carrey

I would have picked Rowen Atkinson but he already did "Johnny English."

[fortyfeetunder]

21. I voted Elmo

I thought Pierce Brosnan was OK in the role...if it was a question of age...Elmo hasn't changed much in the last few decades SS has been on the air. However, I don't the CTW would take too kindly for Elmo doing the kinky stuff and offing people...

[RodneyCK2]

22. What about Clay Aikens?

If anyone could portray Bond as a masculine rogue, it would be Clay, yep, boy howdy....sure.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

23. Rodney Dangerfield

Maybe he'll finally get some respect.

[CandyCrim21]

26. Kevin Smith......

LOL, Just kidding I never was really a James Bond fan. But seriously maybe Hugh Grant, I just think he might be too goofy for the part.

[WEagle]

28. Russell Crowe

[Screaming Lord Byron]

29. No one. Why don't we create our own generation's myths?
