  • mtm wrote: » Yes, please just make it now! :) I don't even mind that Harrison is clearly too old, I'd just like to see what they do with it! August feels quite a long way away still. I suspect a bit of mild de-aging will be used. That aside ,…

  • Of Connery's, my favorite is Goldfinger; his entire look is on point. Of the rest, I really like Brosnan's in TWINE and DAD. Generally, my personal taste leans towards Craig's style in all of his films except for SF. They seem to have nailed it f…
  • Twin Peaks. It started strong but quickly went downhill , becoming a convoluted, pretentious mess.
  • I agree. I really like Connery's hair in his first 3 films, with GF being the first in which he was wearing a hairpiece. I like it off of his forehead; by Thunderball, he was wearing it straight over. Based on personal taste, I've never cared for th…

  • Absolutely. Some think that great effort has to be taken to look “ younger” ; I argue that the goal for a more mature actor should not be to look younger, but to look vigorous and vital, particularly for actors doing action. Here is Clint Eastwo…
  • Well, it must be done skillfully, and better lighter than too dark. Roger’s appearance was more hampered by overly aggressive cosmetic surgery on his eyelids. A shorter haircut alone would have made him , while older, look more vigorous.
  • I've touched on this previously, Craig has always looked best when they deepen his eyebrows a bit. Even within the same film this fluctuates. In SF it wasn't so much the haircut that I had a problem with, it was that throughout the film his brows we…
  • Please give it a rest...

  • I agree, while there is denial that any thought has been given to who will be cast as the next Bond, I absolutely think that a list of potential actors exist. I wonder how it company to the names that many of us have proposed? Also, I find that …

  • Here, I fixed this list. ;) Sam Claflin (34) - (39) Nicholas Hoult (30) - (36) Aiden Turner (37) - (42)
  • Many of those old school barbers had skills.

  • While my full time career is as a Firefighter, but my second career is that of a Barber/hair stylist; I've done that for 34 years. The one scene in CR that has always bugged me is when Bond and Mathis are on the hotel balcony, as Vesper is sleepi…
  • Well the Bond in CR is not the sophisticated, polished, refined agent that he would eventually become. Also in different situations, within the same movie, his hair is going to look different; his look for being under cover in Madagascar is going…
