  • Great idea Chris. How about Peter Dinklage? Ian McKellen?

    Melissa McCarthy?

  • I wouldn't mind seeing an 'old james bond' movie where he's reflecting on his career - like McKellen just did with Sherlock. That would be quite interesting.

    Personally I can't stand Melissa McCarthy in anything other than Gilmore Girls.

  • Actually, except for the fact that he's probably physically unable to perform, I wouldn't mind seeing Sean Connery do the old Bond thing.

    And no I haven't like Melissa McCarthy in anything actually but she doesn't seem like a bitch. Same deal with Adam Sandler.

  • McCarthy just seems to want to be a female version of a nineties 'shock jock' comedian. Like, OMG, she's pooping in the streets! Trololol! Yeah, Bridesmaids got turned off pretty quickly after that. It's not funny when a guy does it, it's not funny when she does it.

    Sean Connery would be good in that. The old bond thing - it could just be recounting with various flashbacks; could even be a miniseries - where Connery just sits telling some kid about it; he's glad to have someone to share this with as his life has obviously left him very lonely. Or, it could be 'one last mission' type, but I think that genre is pretty tapped out with things like Expendables, RED etc.

  • One of the mainstays of my opinions is the fact that the presence of Sean Connery in a film adds an extra letter grade to its score.

    I have a few actors I'm like that with. Ian McKellen is one. Ryan Reynolds is another.

    Ryan Reynolds surprises me. No disrespect to the young man but I never put him in the upper echelon.

    Which roles do you think he is best in?

    Gary Oldman and Kenneth Branagh will convince me to come see a movie.

  • James Bond should be quietly put to sleep. His time is done.

  • We had this topic just a couple of weeks ago in the Survey.

    Colin Farrell would make the best next James Bond.

  • If they cast Idris Elba no fuckin' thanks.

  • Should be me - in the AF, OSI tried to recruit me before my enlistment was up. (or more likely, a guest appearance

    on our favorite show, NCIS...)

    and I was in our senior class play...

    and I like my root beer shaken, not stirred... 🙂
