I want to say all the edgy modern people dont want another stail Bond like Brosnan. The person we wnat is British actor Johnathan Rhys Meyers. He played Elivs Presley like nobody ever could and he Is all the role needs to be an amazing thing beyond belief. He is cocky, a ladies man, on fire, british, young so he can play more than one or two if he is really great. WE are sick of the same old movies and thing. Johnathan Rhys Meyers has something to offer the whole freaking movie business. He has 4 sites check them out.

JRM would be the By FAR best Bond

I have to disagree. Brosnan was the best Bond since Connery...hence the reason they are having such difficulty filling the role. Any serious bond fan understands that Bond has evolved from a two-dimenional character to one of actual flesh and bone. However, he MUST maintain the aloof aura that makes Bond BOND. All due respect Rhys-Meyers is a great actor, but he lacks the sophistication needed for this role. As does Visnjic and frankly the rest of the others up for consideration. A serious tactical error was made letting Brosnan go...remember...Die Another Day did the best in the box office than any other Bond film before it. Hopefully this is a huge publicity stunt to get people interested enough and cause enough of a clamor that they go back with Brosnan.

Curious that the author didn't mention Adrian Paul, as this actor is number one in many popularity polls to play Bond.
