Oh, and Never Say Never again isnt a true James Bond movie, it was a Warner Brothers "Adaption" of Thunderball. With BErnie Casey as Felix? Somebody had a good laugh over that one.
felix unger was never played by the same guy twice ... he was even played by JAck Lord (hawaii 5-O)

Felix Unger? I dont recall Jack Lemon or Walter Matthau in any bond flicks... maybe ol walt played Sherrif JW Pepper?

Just picking, it was Felix Lighter. And i knwo what you are saying, but a black guy? cmon.... that's like haveing Jackie Chan play the next bond... it just doesnt quite fit.

someone was lobbying to be the next bond and he is a black guy .. i cant remember who ..

it doesnt make sense ... if you're going to switch race/gender on an established character .. just do the same thing with a different character.


It would be like having a white Blade or Spawn... doesnt make sense.

Thats how I felt when Will Smith did "Wild Wild West". That was one of my favorite shows growing up. Nothing against Will Smith but c'mon.....he plays pretty much the same character in all of his movies.And this has nothing to do with race. I love all people.

I can't say I'm too keen on seeing Steve Martin do the Pink Panther either.

I think Hugh Jackman would make a good James Bond. What do you think?

i'd rather see an unknown 30 something Brit in the roll ...who can act.

I need a Bond I'm not going to associate with any other rolls.

Thats why Roger Moore was so unliked by older Bond fans .. they still saw him as The Saint.

Hugh JAckman as wolverine will always be in my head.

(the downside to a strong character roll)

Bond is mid to late 30's (i think) about 6'1" and not pretty .. he should look tough .. (that part was Jackman)

He is a cruel man. I'd like to see the Bonds get back to the basics ... a couple of believable gimmicks, a cool car, a funky villan ... and hard core action.

A couple of the recent bonds made an attempt to go in that direction - actually the Dalton bonds made an attempt to get grittier at one point.

But .. its hard to go back...

He could pull it off, but my vote goes for Jason Statham.
