| Subject: UK bookies place odds on Bond |
|
| Here are the odds and how I think of the actor as Bond * Ewan McGregor - 9-4 [It'd be cool, but bond is a womenizer, a mans man, and I haven't seen Ewan in a role that would make me belive him. He's a lover, not a secret agent sex machine. I could be wrong. I'll make him my third favorite prospect] * Dougray Scott - 9-2 [I'm not a big fan, from what I've seen of him he looks like a heel, for those of you not in the know that means villian. However, the fact that he is not known is a plus.. Bond's typically are picked from obscurity into greatness] * Jude Law - 8-1 [I don't see it. He's a wormy guy. Not bond material. Maybe my opinion will change after SkyCaptin, but I doubt it.] * Clive Owen - 6-1 [Hell yeah! He's my favorite on this list. Watch The Hire", and you'll think you ARE watching Bond already.] * Hugh Jackman - 7-1 [I don't know... He's typically plays angry characters. Not cool like Bond] * Colin Farrell - 7-1 [Not as bad as I wish. My only complaint is he's not as perfect an actor as a bond should be. Plus he isn't suave often] * Eric Bana - 9-1 [Too cold, Bond is suave, not menacing] * Orlando Bloom - 10-1 [To young, isn't he on the cover of Teen Magizine this month. Maybe in 10 years he'd be perfect, but not now] * Chris Feeney - 10-1 [Who? IMDB doesn't even have this guy. It's probably a typo. They probably meant Jason Statham (who would be my fifth pick)] * Rupert Everett - 20-1 [Possibly my number 2 pick. Suave, but I don't see enough strength behind it.] * Hugh Grant - 20-1 [Same as above but worse. I couldn't even picture him owning a gun, let alone shooting it at a Commie.] * Russell Crow - 25-1 [To big, a P90 would look like a toy if he held it. You might as well hire the Ape from Mighty Joe Young, plus he is way too big an American Star] * Robbie Williams - 100-1 [where exactly has he been? Oh yeah.. fucking Christina Augillera. Decent pick though. I give him my fourth pick] * Eminem - 100-1 [This is a joke right. I mean he could be a secret agent someday maybe, but not British, and deffinatly not Bond] To recap my top 5 1) Clive Owen 2) Rupert Everett 3) Ewan McGregor 4) Robbie Williams 5) Jason Statham |

polishpimping | Re:, 04-01-05 3:52pm You don't know Bond like I know Bond. Ewan is great, just not as 007. |
Jaganshi | 04-01-05 3:11pm What about Christian Bale? |
polishpimping | Re:, 04-01-05 3:52pm What about him? Seriously though he is way to dark to be JB. |
jaganshi | Re: Re:, 04-01-05 7:22pm He doesn't have to be full of darkness and badassery all the time. Hell, he was in Little Women! |
