@mn5 It means nothing until he's on screen.

Anyway, he'd be a lousy Bond. Even worse that the current charisma-vacuum.

Yep you're right. Bond is a white guy for starters. Craig is brilliant though.

Clive Owen should've been Bond, and Mike Hodges should've directed the films.

Wrong. Craig brought much needed life into a dying franchise. Casino Royale is one of the best bonds ever.

Ok, clearly I don't have to take anything you say about actors seriously ... Gerard Butler next on your list?

[Bovidae]

Now I agree with @Nepia - Clive Owen has zero personality on screen.

[Tim]

You lot should watch Croupier. He's outstanding in it.

Most of the time he's just bored in movies.

Ferners to have a movie night with......

Well, it's not often that you get two of Tim's Big Calls in one day.

Elba was good in Zootopia and The JUngle Book

I think he's fine, not great but good enough, if I see a film with him usually know what you are gonna get.

Maybe Anthony Starr could be the first kiwi Bond? He's already well used to shagging the hot birds and beating up on the bad guys

George Lazenby did a great job. Yeah I could easily see old Hood in the role come to think of it.

@mn5 An extremely dull film.

Even a b-movie "evil internet" thriller like Untraceable (2008) was vastly more entertaining.

Bonds been going successfully for 55 years. I think this renders your point somewhat moot.

@mn5 It's about as interesting as the Transformers franchise at this point.

Decent revenge themed b-movie on Netflix. Worth a look.

Thor Ragnarok - awesome. Best marvel movie IMO. Good to see some humour. Watched it in a cinema in Wimbledon and the crowd loved Taika Waititis character with his cuzzy bro accent...

Perhaps Byron Kelleher. Although he'd get himself too worked up during the opening credits and get shot in the first scene.

Canefan clearly said hot birds. Filthy tranny looking Asians don't count

Great soundtrack too. Great film, as good as you could do this sort of film, very funny

Taika can do whatever he wants to do next.
