Orlando Bloom to be named the next Bond

:mad:

Worst.choice.Ever! Watch out Dalton, there may be a new worst Bond!

For some reason I'm reminded of that crappy "James Bond Jr." cartoon series.

God I hope that doesn't happen. [img]graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

As much as I love Orlando Bloom, that just doesn't work. I think Jude Law should be the next Bond.

You know, I knew that just about every girl in the world had the hots for him when he put on a girl's wig in LOTR, but I never imagined it had gotten this bad.

I really hope this is one of those bs, totally tentative articles that has little basis in reality.

If we are so desperate for a Bond that we turn to Orlando Bloom, then why the hell just not bring back George Lazenby?

yep, i agree with ya. i think, Orlando is a nice guy, but he as James Bond?! [img]graemlins/boggled.gif[/img]
why not somebody else? he's still too young for this role... [img]graemlins/woah.gif[/img]

Yep, James Bond Jnr. But the real 007 is a man.

How about Gerard Butler or at a push Ewan McGregor? (must be something about Scots men and Bond...darn that Connery guy) [img]graemlins/yummy.gif[/img]

I kinda think this is perfect casting

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Yeah Jude Law is by far closer to the Bond image. Throw in tons of talent. They're all too young but they must want to grab a bigger market; they get a kid. Bloom's not shown very much talent as yet. He's pretty enough so maybe that's good enough for the producers? Too bad.

Oh My God. I hope it is not true. He sucks as an actor! :(

I like the Hugh Jackman rumours myself, I think he would be a great Bond.

However, I think Pierce Brosnan has at least one more in him. He is the best Bond since Connery

I kinda think you're mistaken.

The Bond Girls should not be more masculine than Bond himself.

Goddammit, why can't they bring Bond back to the classy, arrogant, bi<biga>tch-slapping badass he used to be and not this watered-down metrosexual they have now?

**Jocasta** · 03-22-2004, 02:33 PM

I've been thinking, maybe we should have someone from "Pirates of the Caribbean"... no not Depp, he's American, for goodness sake!

How about Jack Davenport?

03-22-2004, 03:58 PM

We want Vinnie Jones!

SilverSpoon · 03-22-2004, 06:48 PM

They should've stopped the entire Bond series when Q died. It's just not the same without him!

03-22-2004, 06:59 PM

I just to imdb.com, PIERCE IS STILL GOING TO BE BOND! They say he just has too many fans :D
