No Longer Bonding ...

Pierce Brosnan has announced he has retired from playing James Bond.

So the quest is on to find another Bond.

Who are your picks ?

I can't think of anyone these days.

I kinda thought Ralph Fiennes might make a good bond, he is a little short though...

http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/a...how/793805.cms I don't think he is a very good choice for the role. I dont really know anyone off of the top of my head that should be the next bond. Mil1ion, you up for the new role?

How about J Leno!They could call him Bondo.
Or if they used Sean Connery again they could call it "The GoldBond Years"

Hmmm.....good thought who could you use?

Maybe Hugh Jackman if they cleaned him up (from X-Men Fame as Wolverine)
Or what about Val Kilmer? He was great in the Saint and Batman.
Or what about that delightful Heath Ledger I have heard so little about.
OR how about any of the stars from the Boondock Saints? If you haven't seen it, I reccomend it - http://www.theboondocksaints.com/ - of course, I think they are Irish, so that won't work....

Geeze, that is a tough one - who could play the next bond and make it believable....

That's my thoughts....

I saw a poll somebody did on the subject, most of the folks you mention were on it. But the winner was a write-in, Adrian Paul from Highlander:The Series. Don't get me wrong I liked the show, but I don't think he has the "Bond" quality.

Hmmm a black bond...that would be kewl especially will smith.
I would be way too happy if they put Sean Connery back in, the guy makes me drool even at his age which by the way I think the older a man gets the sexier he gets.

Wanna meet my 93-year-old grandad? You might find him way sexy then, and he drools, too!

Sean Connery was Scottish, so it could work. They'll end up hiring someone really bland who's the flavor of the month, no one can bring back Sean or Roger.... Hmm, who would be the most unlikely bond... Al Pacino? Yells too much "I said SHAKEN, NOT STIRRED YOU @#$% PIECE OF RAT @#$%!!!!" Who else? Dustin Hoffman a' la Rainman? "Bond, definetly Bond, James Bond, yea..." Clint Eastwood? I think Bond would have a new gun, screw the PPK...we may have a winner!
