Robertron Posted May 5, 2012 Posted May 5, 2012 So, who do you think the next Bond will be, or at least the contenders?!
4815162342 Posted May 5, 2012 Posted May 5, 2012 Fassbender will always be a contender for almost anythingThey might turn to Henry Cavill again since he was the runner-up to Daniel Craig for Casino Royale.Idris Elba if they want to do the first "black" Bond
Noctis Posted May 5, 2012 Posted May 5, 2012 Black Bonds? Sorry, that's just utterly ridiculous.Henry Cavill, hopefully. 2
4815162342 Posted May 5, 2012 Posted May 5, 2012 Black Bonds? Sorry, that's just utterly ridiculous.Yes, because we're totally in 1953 right now.
Noctis Posted May 5, 2012 Posted May 5, 2012 Yes, because we're totally in 1953 right now.Please don't try to paint me as a racist.Black Bond just wouldn't be believable at all. Why not cast an Asian as Harry Potter? 1
4815162342 Posted May 5, 2012 Posted May 5, 2012 Why wouldn't it be believable? 95% of what makes Bond Bond, even all the way back to his backstory in the Fleming novels, has absolutely nothing to do with his race.The only reason you think it wouldn't work, and yes, this is what your statements imply, is that audiences wouldn't accept a black Bond. 2
Rudolf Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 Bond couldn't be played by a blond Germanic type either. It is simply ridiculous.
lilmac Posted May 12, 2012 Posted May 12, 2012 (edited) I hope Daniel Craig hangs in there and beats Roger Moore's record for number of Bond films.Roger Moore - 7Sean Connery - 5Pierce Brosnan - 4Daniel Craig - 4 (incl. 2014 film) Edited May 12, 2012 by lilmac
Robertron Posted May 18, 2012 Author Posted May 18, 2012 I am so happy that Sam Worthington didnt get the gig instead of Craig - Worthington is a horrible actor.
The Toymaker Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 Hopefully Clive Owen is the next Bond as it should have been. Craig is just not right.I agree with the racist comments of Noctis. A black Bond would be a stupid idea, both critically and commercially. The blacks have their own heroes in Django, Black Dynamite, Mandingo and Blade. Bond is ours. Lets keep it like that. 1
Jack Nevada Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 (edited) I dont want to sound like a KKK-member, but I dont want a black Bond. Just no. Sorry. Edited October 8, 2012 by Jack Nevada 3
The Toymaker Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 I dont want to sound like a KKK-member, but I dont want a black Bond. Just no. Sorry.You know, that doesn't make you sound like a KKK member. You didn't say you wanted to wipe all the blacks off the face of the Earth. You just said you didn't want a black Bond. You don't need to feel guilty for that. I'm sure they wouldn't want a white Blade or Mandingo. 3
Jack Nevada Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 Michael Fassbinder has the classic good looks, the sense of humor, and the charisma for James Bond
The Toymaker Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 You like sense of humour in Bond? Yet you haven't seen a Roger Moore Bond movie? I am really surprised.Daniel Craig has zero emotions. No humour at all.
Jack Nevada Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 You like sense of humour in Bond? Yet you haven't seen a Roger Moore Bond movie? I am really suprised Yes, its shameful, but i have been busy with school; no time to watch many movies. I'll get to the Moore bonds soonI do like the wry humor of Sean Connery
nAlkaline Posted October 13, 2012 Posted October 13, 2012 (edited) I suppose I am one of the few that is really hoping it doesn't go to Fassbender. Please don't give him the license to kill. I love most of his work. I don't see the Bond parallels. Edited October 13, 2012 by nAlkaline
Jake Gittes Posted October 13, 2012 Posted October 13, 2012 If it's someone we already know well, than easily either Fassbender or Tom Hardy. But plenty of other options might come up by the time it's 2017, since that's the earliest the producers will need to look for the next Bond.
