The Dinos are a too far out to try in the films, but I think that is the advantage of the comics. It's the way Bond is drawn that I like most, lean, tough looking.
They would be right at home in DAD.
Dalton would not have fit in Serpents Tooth at all. I think he would've gotten into cardiac arrest just from reading the script. It's definitly closer to Brosnan, but kind of it's own thing.
But until convinced otherwise, i don't think Dalton could have pulled off that kind of cool suave humor. It's not just about lighting up, you either have it or you don't.
Well, Dalton lit up a lot in his films, so I think he had that side of Bond already covered. If Serpent's Tooth were a film, it would be Brosnan's 6th Bond film, if his films continued to get more and more absurd.
Dalton is classically charming, always pursuing a dramatic angle, working from the heart and soul of his character and seeking, as he himself has put it, contradiction, not pastiche. I will always profoundly admire him for that.
He's also a skilled enough actor, in my opinion, to do what must be done, and a few different inflections or extra eyebrow movements, could go a long way. I don't particularly think of Serpent's Tooth as "all fun and no seriousness" either. It has a couple of tense and dramatic moments, and Dalton, I'm sure, could rock in those.
For Dalton's third, I would've wanted The Quasimodo Gambit. That's definitely on par with his style of Bond storytelling. And besides, have it been made in the early nineties when Die Hard was still a strongly ongoing franchise, it would've made tons of dozen millions. Perhaps Renny Harlin would've even directed it!
I can just see it now. ;)
And as a sexist, misogynist dinosaur he would feel right at home :D
Would that make "After The Sunset" a sequel? ;-)
Imagine what would come after "My name is Pussy," with Cheech Marin doing the talking. ;-)
