I don't know about a young Q or making him "serious".

He's too young, especially for DC's Bond. Q is suppose to be older, some kind of a mentor to Bond.

I have a big problem with this.

Q of the books not much to go on there, my God Q of the movies there is so much to go on it is not funny, a younger man will fundamentally change the dynamics. This in concert of the rumor Agent Eve later Miss Moneypenny is the first conquest of the movie is enough to ruin Bond for me.

If Moneypenny comes out of Harris's role, the end has occurred.

I would prefer Jerry Sadowitz as Q, but that would fit best for the 7th Bond Henry or better an unofficial Bond starring Hugh Jackman.

I was hoping we could have a decent Q and Moneypenny when a real Bond took over after Craig.

Hugh Laurie, Steven Fry, hell possibly even David Jason could've played q, this one's gonna be stupid and people think it's a good idea going by the internet comments (or imo the sheep who'll accept any crap even though it's crap).

Q: Now pay attention 007..(coughs)....I forgot to pay My tuition fees, I just finished university you see...yes so I need to borrow some money and possibly buy some drugs, when q smokes those motherbeepers he knows his beep..oh hang on just a second (looks at the ladies)...oh yes...why am I here again
bond: pay attention
q: yes pay attention 007, honestly you'd think I was a lot younger than you the way I act..now off to put some songs on My ipod and watch some x-factor.

Later

Moneypenny: hello I'm moneypenn I mean agent eva..I like to blow stuff up and drive cars...oh yes you don't know but later you'll find out I'm moneypenny..still not like we're hurting the fans now are we (cregg, naomi, young q all look at diehard bondf fans with trollface )...wait they're leaving, come back.
brocolli: bond will return in bond 24: code 969...oh crap that's daniels house security code...er he'll return in bond 24: I love daniel craig...whoops I mean he'll return because he's My slave...wait.

Think about tis some more there is a big problem with Q being so young. I could see Q being someone established that Bond never met but a young guy, I'm not so sure of.

Q being a well, n00b :mrgreen: is a bit disconcerting. OTOH it's Ben Wishlaw. IMO he's easy on the eyes.
