Thanks. I can see him in the role. As for Owen saying it would limit his career, I don't think it hurt Pierce Brosnan a bit.

well, based on the reaction the last bond-related thread got, I put it in there. I figured it'd be big news to quite a few people.

He looks like a cross between William Hurt and Gary Oldman.

The best thing about On Her Majesty's Secret Service was Kojack as Ernst Stavro Blofeld. Who loves ya, Mr. Bond!

For all of us who expected it to be Clive Owen, I offer the following comment. Who the heck is Daniel Craig?

Who the heck are either one of those guys?

Face it, Bond has been done to death.

Besides, the only REAL Bond was:

I loved the old Bond movies with Sean Connery, but then they came out when I was about 12. The last few Bond movies I've seen were, IMHO, still geared for a 12-yr old's mind.

He's the new George Lazenby. (LOL)

Looks very "metro-sexual". Almost like an escapee from "queer eye".
