Is anyone else tired of Hollywood picking the same lame limp wristed sensitive pantywaistes James Bonds.

After watching the movie The Transporter I would pick this Brit for the Role

Well, Christian Bale would save money since he can be both Bond and the archvillian.

How about Bill Nighy.

Sure he's a little old. OK, he's not that great looking either - no Sean Connery that's for sure. But on the plus side he couldn't do an action scene on a bet so they might have to actually use an old fashioned idea that was once used in the movie business. It was called "a story". I think this approach isn't used much anymore. It gets in the way of the dynamite, car chases and sex scenes.

If you don't know who this guy is you should watch "Love Actually" and "The Girl in the Cafe". He is a brilliant actor. Typically British. A perfect but aging James Bond.

If they don't get Clive Owen, they shouldn't even bother. He's the perfect mix of suave ("the Croupier") and badass ("Sin City")
