Also, double posting isn't cool.
Also, is p2d still trolling everyone with chamalamadingdong? Get over it, mate. Hereby I vote for Bruce Willis, he has no hair but at least he looks like he's equipped with a set of balls, which in Bond's case is mandatory.
And again I don't think so @Pierce2Daniel, he's more suited to a future villain in my opinion, and yes Dune does put him on that list because it's a planned trilogy, same as Pattinson's Batman, so they'll both be very busy, whether the characters are that big or not. Also not to mention that despite similarities to Bale you mention, that doesn't mean their career path is going to completely mirror the other, and even so, Bale has never even been close to the role of James Bond as far as I'm aware - despite his looks.
And this is coming from someone who is a fan of Chalamet. I've seen all of his movies. I can't wait for Dune, loved Little Women and Lady Bird. I think Call Me By Your Name is great, and he's been great in nearly everything I've seen him in - but he's just not right for Bond, and I don't think a current online buzz is worth pitching him forward for James Bond. I think even fans of his work know this.
Anyway, I'm still rooting for these guys:
1. Callum Turner
2. Sam Claflin
3. Aaron Taylor-Johnson
4. Sean Teale
5. Ben Aldridge
No, not like that. Putting someone's actual name in inverted commas because you prefer your own race-based nickname for him isn't the same as that at all. I know you like to draw inane false comparisons, but that one really doesn't work.
And I said 'hardly', not 'harder'- if you're going to pick folks up on their spelling then you should try to spell things right yourself.
?
Or maybe opinions aren't fact and folks have a different point of view to you.
Isn t that Børge Brende? Or maybe not, he lacks the stupid grin.
I think Callum Turner is a solid candidate but he looks more like Eggy from Kingsman in that pic than Bond.
Yes, I think they do say that in those flat-earth conventions, don’t they?
No, no. Fact isn’t opinion. That, sir, is the right way to go about it, not the other way around. But we won’t go into this again because I’m not that niilist.
I do as well
And I'm also intrigued on the reason some feel Barbara already has someone in mind?
No idea.
I think there are some who want to present all opinions as valid and deny that there are such things as facts. But what are those exactly... beats me. Stupid argument really. Only came up because I said some suggestions were inane. Which they are. They really are. And that, my friend, is a fact ;)
Some men just want to see the world burn, some men just want a Honda motorbike to be Bond. Other want Chalamet. Others want Dev Patell, others Bruce Willis.
All and all, this thread is comical as hell.
I would think that they probably started talking about it as soon as they knew Craig was only going to do one more. A shortlist probably exists, even if the names on it aren't aware of it yet.
No i would prefer someone similar to Craig
Ha ha ha!
Keep the grumpy inane attempted ‘cyber bullying’ up @mtm!
You’re a joke mate. It’s hilarious. You just spent an entire post ‘having a go’ at 3 community members. You spent hours targeting @Univex the other week. Everyone can see it. Have you ever noticed that your the only member other members argue with on here.
Anyhow...... back on subject if we are talking of a suitable candidate who has a slightly Mediterranean look (or however Fleming put it), but is British....we are back onto Aidan Turner.
Very true, no doubt.
I’d love to see it!
And can we all calm down on the unnecessary squabbles. No-ones cyber-bullying or being malicious.
I accept all that. But to me he actually looks Spanish. He could actually be recast as Dario (looks wise IMO).
I respect what your saying, but that’s my view.
I’ve never seen his acting, just basing this on the photos.
Anyway, for me, I just feel Teale has the smooth British charm, and other qualities to be a cool version of the character. But I also understand that other people would much prefer the more classic approach - even if I feel changing the ethnicity up a little bit wouldn't change that.
I get what your saying in the clip.
But for me, his look doesn’t work for Bond. The only analogy I can think of it is that it would be like casting Robert Redford as Micheal Corleone (I think that was actually suggested in real life), but it doesn’t work for me. He doesn’t look typically Italian at all.
Teale is all you say. But he actually looks Latino. I personally just want traditional casting for 007.
Many others don’t, I do.
...but with James Bond, I don't think it's the same anymore. We're in a world now where a British person working for the secret service could be from any ethnic background. But again I'll stress that I understand the desire for a more classic actor.
