    Who should be the Next James Bond?

    I'm pretty sure that Pierce Brosnan has signed on to do one more, but I read a rumour in the magazine that the video store that Richard works for, that Jude Law is being considered to replace Pierce after that, I don't know whether that's a good thing or not, but I made this pic anyway, just to see how it went down with me.......

    NEVER SEND FLOWERS

    So...who do you think should be the next James Bond...Jude Law? Jason Isaacs maybe? Or should they can the whole Bond series while they are on top?

    I would cry if they killed the franchise...but is it time?

    No there's still plenty of life left in The Bond franchise and it would be terrible if they decided to focus on Jinxe instead. However Jude Law should not play James Bond. Nor Robbie Rilliams.

    They should do what they've done with the other Bonds. Choose a smaller name who'd only major work has been on the small screen. None of the big name actors would suite the roll at all, it's be worse than George Lazanby. Oh, and I don't care how much Roger Moore wants it, Cuba Gooding Junior would not make a good Bond!!!

    i think jude law would be perfect for bond. after watching several of his movies recently, i can see how he would be the best since connery, and a $hitload better than brosnan (who brings nothing to the role).

    jude law as the next bond is the only thing that would renew my interest in the bond franchise, which has really gotten boring and pointless.

    i had heard on a "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" related site, that there was talk of canning Brosnon altogether and going with a female Bond. and they were in talks with, of all people, Halle Berry and Sarah Michelle Gellar. now, if i had a choice, i would look for someone new to play a male bond. i really can not get behind a female Bond. it just wouldn't work. not with how sexual James can get with the female leads. a female would come off as being a slut.... but maybe a spinoff would work. but then, as i have said before, Berry shouldn't get it.

    i really don't think they should get rid of the series, just Brosnon. i never really liked him as Bond. he is a so-so actor.

    Jason Isaacs strikes me as being a little on the old side, but otherwise he'd be PERFECT for Bond. Jinx spinoff... no. Female Bond... HELL NO!

    I'd have to go with Jude Law, but I also think that Clive Owen would also be pretty good for the part but yes, he definitely needs to work on his charm and he is more the quiet type. After seeing Christian Bale in American Psycho, I can't really picture him as Bond... He would be okay.... I really hope that they don't scrap the male bond and go with a female bond. There's just no friggin way...

    oh come on... he's not gonna be a wrestler in a James Bond movie.


    he's got a great strong voice. and he's definitely got that sexy, falling for look. he got the smile that can have the way w/ women, got the look-eyes-and voice to be serious as a spy or disguise. i definitely think he would be perfect. what's wrong w/ a buffed James Bond?! especially Hawaiian James Bond. it will be definitely the first but ya gotta admit- The Rock is perfect!!! perfect in every way

    Jude Law does NOT have the look. not sexy. he's got a weird loner thing. james bond does work alone BUT he's gotta be cool and sexy. his face is all wrong. doesn't fit.

    maybe a new face... like my boyfriend! nah just kidding. but it wouldn't hurt for a new face. i would like to see a James Bond and know him as James Bond the rest of his career.....

    I heard they want Ewan McGregor to do it, but I think Mike Mayers would be much better - with all his expereince - yeah baby yeah
