    Ah-ha, but you neglected to consider the effects of global warming, which would cause the rapid heating of the surfaces already traversed, leading to an accelerated thinning of the ice all around me. (As you can see, I'm doing a bit of ice-skating here......... :)))

    In fact if he comes across a villain with loads of underground
    Tunnels, it would be a bonus ! :))

    As Noel Coward would put it, the answer to Jeremy Renner as Bond is no,no,no.

    Michael Fassbender is the man for the job.

    Or Henry Cavill

    No for me, too American and quite similar to Craig now I think about it. When Craig finishes in the role, always good to freshen things up.

    As I said previously, Jeremy Renner ain't gonna be Bond. Fine actor, does action and drama well but they couldn't wait to get Matt Damon back for the next Bourne film. Renner is actually back in the next Mission Impossible film however.

    What about Joel "Robocop" Kinnamen. Swedish but has a godo bond look.

    A Swedish Bond! :o ?:) X-( :s :# :)) :o X-( :o :o :o [ X-( X-( :o

    I don't like the idea very much.

    How is any part of this thread relevant under posts for Bond 24?

    Bond 24, to be released in November 2015, with Daniel Craig playing James Bond...

    Surely posts debating/considering who gets the role after Craig's tenure belong somewhere else.

    You're right. Perhaps the mods could move this thread to the Films folder?

    yah, but he is an actor, you couldnt tell her was Swedish from his accent in Robocop. Bond is a spy he has been places and picked up accents. Connery often sways in to a Russian accent. People say Fassbender he's half Irish and half German. I reckon this kid has the look

    Yes , he has the looks and the accent. But how would you Brits feel if a Belgian became Bond? :))
    How would the Americans feel if a Mexican became Bond? :D

    I'm reluctant to any Non-British Bond actor, but it gets especially bad if someone from a neighbouring country got the part :o :o
  • AlphaOmegaSinAlphaOmegaSin EnglandPosts: 10,926MI6 Agent
    I would be open to a Belgian Actor playing the Role -{ As long as they have the correct Elements, then why not?

  • ThunderpussyThunderpussy Behind you !Posts: 63,792MI6 Agent
    Agreed -{ , so long as the actor looks like and can sound like Bond.
    I'd be happy. :)

    I have always thought that Richard Armitage could play the Role well. In fact, he looks rather similar to Fleming's Description of Bond.

    I think the next Bond, is someone we haven't heard of yet. :))
    I had to look up facts on Dalton and Craig when they were
    Announced. :))

    :)) yes, I had to go into a building called a " Library ", then to its
    Reference section.
    ( we older Bond fans, had to be dedicated, no clicking on google
    For us ) :))

    You'll never know, as the Government is closing them all X-( :#
    Seems some rich people like Bob Geldof and Gary Barlow don't
    Want to pay any tax to help Britain ( which they claim to love) to keep
    It's public services open.
    Still when they're gone I'm sure the two lads will put on a Concert. 8-)

    Really? I never noticed that. Not even in The Hunt for Red October in which he is supposed to be Russian! :))

    yes, some moments when he begins slurring words, he sways way of as being Scottish (As a Scotsman at the points I am talking about) it is no known Scottish accent. His accent often waffles giving which adds to the mystery of the man. it is believed he spoke Scottish Gaelic tought by his grandparents before he could even speak any English. The Gaels are a mixed bag, Irish, French.... From Russia with love there is one point of conversation with Kerim Bey in particular where he stops speaking with any kind of Scottish accent and it comes off as Eastern European, I think it is when they first meet.

    I'm not disputing anything anyone has heard form Sir Sean but to me
    Connery just sounds like Connery. No matter what he's in :)) it is a
    Marvellous voice, which ever mix of languages merged to produce it. :D
