Here Today... Gone To Hell!

Lets say they went with a female in the James Bond Role. Who would be the best out of current hollywood actresses?


I say Angelina Jolie.

Are they not referred to as 'female actors' or, more regularly, just plain 'actors' now?

... :P

I say Jennifer Aniston.

Agreed. She'd be good a good villian.

None

Women can't play believable action heroes

I think you guys lose the point of Bond girls. Traditionally they are actresses that are big stars.

 Halle Berry that broke this, and look what a shitty job she did.

NO NO  not a BOND GIRL but the female actually playing the James Bond character only Female.

Jolie or Famke Janssen or Jennifer Garner.

Since real spies are rarely beautiful people but very normal looking people who can minggle in almost any crowd, i'd say the female has to be brown haired ( vast majority of the wold is), normal height ( 5'5), normal weight, she shouldn't be over manucured or have too beautiful hair and teeth and be chameleon like.

Angelica huston would have been perfect if younger

Nowadays uk actress Jessie Wallace is physically right i think

well on reading the title she was my first choice she would be great and believable as some kick ass hard ass woman, or the girl from Underworld whatever her bloody name is i forget

Kate Beckinsale. Her too.  :yes:

oh  :hihi:

my mistake

No. Americans.

Ouch...that's one role I would hate to see played by a woman.  From what I've heard, the guy in the new one is really good.  I'll give you my review when I get to that one in 2009!
I'm still on movies from 2004.  :hihi:

Let's see, classy, athletic, lesbian (I refuse to allow the term "Bond guys" to ever be uttered), so, I don't know...I guess Jolie would work.   :hihi:

daniel craig : ok:

I don't know, but they might have to change the character's name...

My name is Joan, Joan Bond ( jane, jill, jan, .........????)  ;D ;D ;D

Cate Blanchett

Oh c'mon - this talk is absurd

We all attack political correctness when it rears its ugly head - then 10 seconds later we fight for it and advance its cause

James Bond is about masculinity, sexism and violence - its not about solving problems through dialogue, holding hands or the advancement of mankind

If people cant leave a small corner of our world untouched by this new modern form of politically correct fascism we might as well hurl ourselves into the sun

'maybe he could have just talked with the guards rather than shoot them - and what policies to protect the environment are MI6 implementing?'


Honestly, a women playing James Bond - does that even work as an idea?

Hey - why dont we have a gay James Bond, or a black James Bond - or hell, a handicapped James Bond?

For god's sake.

They're almost there :hihi:

Not Angelina Jolie.  It would be as boring as the one Tomb Raider/Lara Croft flick I was forced to endure a couple of years ago.

Finally, someone that also sees the light of how utterly crap Angelina Jolie is.  I liked her in Girl Interrupted, but that was it.  The only reason people place her in the action category is because she's built like a brick shithouse.  Sigourney Weaver was hotter in Alien Resurrection!  Between her, Kate Beckinsale and Milla Jovovich (who in my opinion are all hot)...their movies now are a cliche shitfest. 

As far as a female Bond.....It's not a female part so it'd pointless to say anyone who would fit it.

oooh, yes, id enjoy this !!!!

Political correctness isn't really the issue. It would be breaking tradition more than anything.? It seems like the 'political correctness' term is used mainly by traditionalists'. Universal liberties is what it should be about. No one should be confined to certain occupations/roles because of his/her gender.


Probably not.

The Next Karate Kid and Supergirl were female variations of very popular roles played by men. They obviously didn't do very well. It's hard to change that up when it's been one way for so many years.

I could go for that

Of course it is the issue. It's the same old 'Isn't it about time a woman played that and that, and did that and that. I'm sure they would do just as good a job.' phrase being put into effect. Copying and trying to conquer men in their own territory has got nothing to do with liberty, it's a minority complex.

Liberty is going out doing what you do best, what you want to do. Not trying to find male dominated occupations just so one can 'show them'.

I got nothing against women as lead characters, but action heroes? Come on...Does anybody want to see a man excell in a nursing role? Do we need it?

Imelda Marcos  :hihi:

Now that could work :hihi:

Angelina Jollette :yes:



or Alexis Arquet  :rofl:


*name aren't spelled right*

I think we're looking at this the wrong way.  What that franchise really needs is a burly octogenarian man by the name of Wilford Brimley.  ;D

Yeah, I can hear it now... "The name's Bond... Gold Bond."  :rofl:

Oly if he's sophisticated and British  :hihi:

Will Smith!  He could pull off the accent and would be damn cool. :yes:


Seeing as we're talking girls i'll go for Penelope Cruz.  I don't care how English she is..

Oh my - u dont see a fundamental problem with a woman playing James Bond?

What kind of cross dressing romp are u praying for?

We have all kinds of female action stars - if they want to make a film about a female M16 agents beating guys with cats and plans for world domination then so be it - but changing a series because of stupid beligerant feminism - some people need to grew up

When the only constant in the James Bond films is a male agent called James Bond, how would changing gender enable it to be a James Bond film?

I really wonder sometimes...

i dont doubt that it wont happen sometime,but if it does the controversy surrounding whoever they chose would be a million times greater than when they chose the male bonds

Oh God no, a female James Bond would definately suck. If you want a female spy/actionperson/whatever make a film about that, don't go making cheap reproductions of something that already exists with the only difference that the head character is now a woman.

oj simpson would be good

female bond - demi moore

black bond - will smith

I totally agree.
