i'm ready for a new bond

 

[KnightTemplar]

Good. Sick of hearing that miserable old git pissing and moaning about his terrible lot in life. Fuck him. Next please.

Honest Trailer's summed it up pretty well,

Aww, poor guy had to pretend to be James Bond for millions of dollars. Suck it up and drink your Martini!

 

[KnightTemplar]

Fassbender would be perfect in this role.

However, I truly hope they go back to what made Casino Royale the best bond ever -- a great villain, a great cast, a believable love story and above all else, real true grit without all the absurd gadgetry.

This guy gets it.

 

[HereticBD]

Slightly amended it but the sentiment remains the same. Unlike a lot of people I thought Craig was a good choice when first announced as the new Bond and for the most part he's done a good job. It's just his personality really stinks in interviews and the more I hear him bleating away about what a miserable time he has had playing Bond the more I can't wait to see the back of him.

"Welcome back Mr. Craig. Now where would you like us to deposit this check for $20 million dollars?"

"In the empty pit of my tortured soul....I guess savings is fine."

 

[MaureenCretis]

It's going to be Nicholas Hoult.

I liked craig in Casino royale and Skyfall those felt like bond films.

Quantaum of solace and Spectre were silly films.

Spectre probably felt the most like an old school Bond movie of them all, which is probably why people didn't like it as much. It had the old school hyper villain with the secret base out in the middle of nowhere, who reveals to Bond he's been behind everything and then when he has a chance to kill him he decides to put him in an easily escapable scenario as oppose of getting the job done and moving on...ultimately leading to the villain getting caught. And then you also had the super henchmen that didn't talk but was a pain in the ass to deal with, and the damsel that Bond obviously fucks in all 3 holes right after he defeats a bad guy. Problem is that in modern film, that shit just seems silly; hence no one enjoyed it. But as a Bond film, Spectre was probably the closest of the Craig films to the old Bond films.

Quantum just sucked (hurts me to say it, since I love Olga Kurylenko)

It's going to be Nicholas Hoult.

Totally should be. Hoult can act like a motherf*cker. He played nux in mad Mac, beast in x men. Kids got great range, can play nerdy, crazy, can do action. He's young, tall, has the look.

Here is hoult not looking nuts for once

But as a Bond film, Spectre was probably the closest of the Craig films to the old Bond films.

I always found it curious why they moved more in that direction, as the Craig series went on. I guess they listened to the fanboys, instead of the huge success of Casino Royale, which tried so damn hard(and succeeded) at re-inventing Bond for this generation. Hell, Skyfall basically ignored the the events of the previous two flicks, and was like a re-reboot. I know Quantum wasn't such hot shit, but was it so bad that you had to start fresh again?

Quantum just sucked (hurts me to say it, since I love Olga Kurylenko)

It's not great, but it has grown on me over the years. It lacks a bit of focus, as it was a victim of the writers' strike, but it's not as bad as it's made out to be. Only thing that really sticks out, are a few awful action scenes, where they go full retard with the "shaky cam" nonsense. I still find it hard to decipher what the hell is going on in that opening chase scene.

It's got it's moments though, and I think that final action sequence is spectacular, and one of the best in the series. That set was awesome.

I'd rather see The Fass play Bond, but Hoult is not a terrible idea. Kid really needs to hit the gym, though(in fairness so does Fassbender)

 

[RollSonnenRoll]

Hoult might still be a little too young. Bond should be a grown ass man who has been through some shit and has moved on to espionage work. Minimum of 30 years old imo

 

[rearnakedchoke]

please be idris ... but i don't think people could handle it .. haha

 

[KnightTemplar]

Too old; Idris is 43 now. If he signed the same contract as Craig, he'd be in his 50's by the time his last Bond movie came out.

yeah, that is that excuse.

 

[Palpatine]

Tom Cruise would be a great fit, imo.

 

[windkick]

Hoult has a receding hair line, and looks too young.

 

[PeterGriffin]

Fassbender would be perfect in this role.

My sentiments exactly.

I do like Luke Evans, but Fassbender is perfect for the role.

Wasn't Roger Moore like 97 when he wrapped up his run as Bond?

 

[KnightTemplar]

Don't be silly. He was only 96

Joking aside, look at the difference between Craig in CR and how tired he appears in Spectre. And Elba is closer to the age Craig is now than when he started playing Bond.

The Fass is 38, so he's got at least a couple of good Bond movies in him.

 

[Rhood]

They should've fired him after Skyfall.
What kind of shit was that?
Probably the worst Bond film of all time.

Even Quantum of Solace was better.
