Colin Firth? As Bond, James Bond?

NO! NO! NO!

A pox on the head of whoever thought this was a good idea.

I'm sorry. I've fucking actively tried to like James Bond. I started borrowing them all from this guy at my last job and grimly sat down to watch them in order. And maybe a few of the Sean Connery ones were okay. But fucking hell. FINE. I confess! They bore the shit out of me! Okay? I'm sorry! I'm less of a person. I don't like James Bond movies! I don't care how many bikini-clad babes Bond bangs. Or how many buildings he cleverly leaps out of while they explode. Or how fast his car goes. Or, or any of it!

I JUST DON'T CARE!!

They're pedestrian and they're all the same and they're not FUN!!

Give me Clive Owen's The Driver any day over Bond. (please, please give him to me; I'll keep him fed and watered and um petted, etc, I promise).

And as much of a Colin Firth fan I am, I still refused to see him whore himself out in a headband in that travesty of a movie, What A Girl Wants (or whatthefuckever it was). But, I think I would be forced to watch him as James Bond. And I would die a little. Wahh!!! *sobs, beats breasts, etc*

Granted, this is still unsubstantiated gibber over at IMDB (reported on [livejournal.com profile] colinfirth), and it could be untrue. But please, please, for the sake of all that is holy, nooooooo!!!

Hm.

No matter how you feel about the movies, Colin Firth would be an immensely shitty Bond. I would actually avoid the movie for that reason alone. He doesn't have that slightly smarmy "cool" thing that Bond is supposed to have. He's too normal and everyman. Bah. I hope they don't do that.

Not that I've bothered to watch a Bond movie since The World is Not Enough anyway. God that was bad. It pretty much killed my interest in any new Bond movie that might be made.

I totally agree. He isn't a Bond guy. He's got a totally different kind of hot to him. But not the smarmy Bond kind.

I thought Christmas only came once a year.

God. That line. And you know how all over the nacho-cheese I usually am.

Bah!
