Default Re: And the new James Bond is...

Hmm, can't say i've seen any of his films. In that photo though he looks like a bit of a geezer, which will make a nice change. Rather him than some poncey bond like Jude Law or Orlando Bloom.

Or even the last one, whom my friends and I joke looks like a twerp that our grandmothers could beat up. He can pull off classy just fine, but is absolutely unconvincing as a threatening physical presence. His shoulders are narrow, he's got skinny arms, and his chest is practically concave.

I'm much more partial to the Connery mold of an impeccably polished ape in a suit. When he threatened to break a girl's arm, you got the feeling he wasn't kidding. For all his sophistication, he had a job to do and would do what it took to get it done. There was an undertone of scariness to Connery's Bond.
