    Adriana Lima!!!

    Don't know about her acting, but she sure looks the part:

    Isn't that a wardrobe malfunction? ;)

    That's a wardrobe win! God I hope they put her in the next Bond film!

    Yeah, gets my vote. Hope she can act.



    You're welcome.

    How about another Bérénice?...We have Bérénice Marlohe in SKYFALL - Bond 24 could go with Bérénice Bejo who was in The Artist. She also appeared in French spy spoof OSS 117 Cairo Nest Of Spies
  • how do you post just the image? - not all that link info?

    When you post, above the text box there are 8 buttons, the first is a B the last is a ?. The 6th one looks like a landscape picture. Just click on that, and the IMG tags will show up in your post.
  • I clicked on that and then dropped the link in thinking the picture would just show up - but just the link appeared...

    Is that the pic you were trying to post?

    The longer link that you originaly link you posted wouldn't work, so I clicked on the link, got the link from properties (that was shorter than the search bar) and posted that, with the IMG tags

    Watched Nest of Spies the other day. Not very good. Not a huge fan of this Berenice either. He is pretty decent tho. Dujardin might make a good villain.

    Even if you didn't like Nest Of Spies, you should give the follow up OSS 117 Lost In Rio a go if you haven't seen it already.....I think Bérénice would make a decent Bond Girl...Not too sure about Dujardin as a villain though....

    Jean Dujardin as a bad guy in a Bond movie, it would be like a dream comes true. And he also proved he could play dramatic parts. I'm less sure about his accent, his english need more improvement.

    I remember when he was still on television, like 8-10 years ago, he made a small funny sequence where he was playing an adult acting like a kid playing at James Bond. It was truly hilarious.

    After seeing her in MIB 3:
    Alice Eve

    Probably getting a sense of deja vu there. It's possible, and she is hot.

    Cristina Cole was the lady at the Oceans Club, right? The receptionist? I'd really, really love to see her again! Not necissarily on the silver screen though... ;)

    Christina Cole would make a great 'older' Bond girl for Craig's 'older' Bond in a few films time. Plus, she's blonde, has a fantastic name and was, I believe, the best looking woman in Casino Royale.

    Have I mentioned how I'd love for her to come back?

    You know Eva was in CR, right @Samuel? ;) Once you re-watch the film, you'll change your song. :)

    OK, I'll hold you to that and get back to you when the time comes. ;)

    Alice Eve excellent choice. Saw her in Rock 'n' Roll in the West End years ago. Very good.

    Alison Brie - perhaps. But she is American and we know what happens with American Bond girls.

    Just because some American Bond girls have sucked doesn't mean all will. EON just suck at casting women at times, going for popularity over acting skill, and we have been unlucky to get women with no talent.

    Each Bond actor has ended their run with an American Bond girl and often it hasn't worked out well. Maybe Craig needs an American as quickly as possible, if only for EON to prove they can do it right.

    so you want Craig's tenure to end quickly ?

    Did I say that? No.

    Think about it, and what I might mean.

    I'm going to be blunt, I don't want to have to flag your post, please don't try to create an argument.

    I'll re-word my last post just to be clear.

    Each Bond actor has happened to end their run with an American Bond girl, American Bond girls also have a history of not working out too well, on film.

    In order to prove EON can cast and write a worthy American character, I was suggesting maybe they should write one for Craig rather soonish, to prove, one, they can do it and two, because Craig is likely to be Bond for a while yet, eg. this would not be his last film, like has coincidentally been the case in the past.

    It's not calming down that I need, it's just that genuinely I, like many others, have tired of the constant bickering that has taken over the forums, recently.

    Your post was worded in such a way, it seemed as if, to me anyway, you were trying to create some friction that didn't even exist.

    I re-worded my post, in case this wasn't the intention, for you to understand what I meant in a clearer manner. I'm glad this helped.

    I thought I was clear enough in my initial message but perhaps this wasn't the case, if so I apologise for jumping down your throat. As I said to begin with, it's because I'm very on edge at the moment, over recent events.

    No hard feelings, I hope and I hope you are able to understand my point of view. :)

    Okay lads, what needed to be said was said. I appreciate your honestly and openness and you kept it civilised. Let's continue with a fresh discussion in this thread, shall we? Thanks, guys. ;-)

    I don't know who mentioned her, but I would love Kate Beckinsale to be a Bond girl. Smart, sexy, and she could pull off the action damn well. My only worry is that she'll be a Wai Lin type who overshadows Bond with her skills, which I feel is what happened in TND.

    If it is all the same to you Samuel I'd rather not have an American girl unless they chose to make the next Bondmovie an adventure in America in which case it would be a must. One can only hope that we get some class lady that matches the class the actresses had in the 30's in Hollywood.
