FBF, what's with the current obsession with Paul Hogan, out of curiousity? I mean, I enjoyed his Dundee movies a lot, but he's well past his prime (and LOOKS well past his prime too, which is more important).

You're quite new here. You'll soon learn that once an idea amuses FBF, he'll post the same joke over and over and over and over again. Before Hogan it was Jerry Sadowitz as Bond, and before that it was Carrot Top and before that it was Steven Seagal.

The Carrot Top as Bond idea is rather a serious one along with Blue Man Group as Bond. That's only Bond 23 grosses higher than both CR and QOS at the box office (especially here in the US) and/or receive recognition from high profile American movie awards.

Purefoy is the only name on that list i'd want to see as Bond and about 10 - 12 years ago, he would have made a fantastic Bond. Alas at 48, he a bit old to begin now. As for who should clean up after Craig, I don't see any name that scream Bond to me.

That is an old poll, though. All the names on it are people who were being talked about as Bond round about the time of CR's release.

Ah, I see.

What does everyone think of James D'Arcy?



Not only is he in the traditional look of Bond, but he stands at 6' 3" tall. He'll be 39 while Bond#24 goes into production.

At this stage I'd take anyone over DC.
There are so many good actors out there, yet they chose, .......................................................

We need a new next Bond poll.

I know he's not everyone's cup of tea, But I really like M Fassbender. Watched him in Haywire
and thought he was more of what Bond looked like in the novels, as opposed to a muscle bound
doorman Craig.
It's always fun to see other's thoughts on possible new Bonds.

I don't mind him, but I prefer someone born in the 1980s to be Bond.

DAN STEVENS.

LITTLE too old when PUTIN (craig) is done.

Stevens is on the radar...

Based on the madness brought upon by Babs, you can forget it.

Henry was Wilsons & Campbells choice back in 05...F#CK YOU BABS!

Goran Višnjić comes from my country. My dad remembers when they talked about how he might be the next James Bond and I just started to laugh...he would be the first Croatian Bond. Of course,he was never a serious candidate that was just a buzz.

He was in ER, & he made screentest back in 05...ACCENT was biggest problem.

Well,of course he can't pull of british accent.Well,anyway.05' was the year we we should have been expecting Brosnan's Bond movie not discussion which actor would be the next Bond.Seriously,I dont know what I would tell Babs if I ever saw her.Probably somehting along the lines:"Oh,I love James Bond.He's so tall and dark and handsome and charismatic and sophisticated.You can really believe he could seduce an evaluator and a doctor to get a clean bill.OH,wait,that was the REAL James Bond." that's about it.

I mean,she tells Pierce how he would do another Bond movie and then suddenly she changes her ind and DOESN'T even tell him personally.He found out from his agent.I mean,that is just beyond disgraceful.It's like Barbara saw Craig on the screen,fell in love and then just had to made him playing the hero that her father practically created on the big screen.Well,Connery did but...you get the point.And she turned that hero into British version of Bourne.
