I honestly would've paid to see that.
Have you seen Pierce in 'The Tailor of Panama' or 'The Matador'? Tell me you couldn't see him pulling it off a little bit with that kind of acting, not the range he uses when playing Bond. He's totally different in those films.

(*) In a very broad sense.
Agree without a doubt! All due to political correctness!!!
<font color=blue size=7><b>TWINE tested Brosnan's abilities as an actor the most.</b></font>
He had to show a lot of emotion in it re the injury,conflicting feelings for Electra,the fact that MI6 was directly attacked by an act of terror,M being kidnapped etc.
At least they learnt from that for the 50th and we got a very good film in SF.
Would agree with this thesis, as I consider TWINE as probably Brosnan's best outing as Bond along with Goldeneye.
Don't be sorry dude, just be correct. Then there's no need for sorry. :))
That said I would disagree with TWINE, Pierce was at his best as 007 in DAD. But I consider none of his outings as really top drawer acting. For which I lay the blame mostly at EONs feet.
I think DAD tested his abilities the most (looking at the script and his co-stars), although TWINE was close.
The thesis is about which film tested him, not about his best performance (which for me was in TND, in which I find his acting to be great, honestly.).

Personally I would have to agree with this thesis. I don't mind how little or much screen time they have? But preferably not in the field. Have to say that it would not surprise me if they do get out and about though in this new era?
