Famous People Death Thread

Didn't they try to do that with him in the retro spy movie he made a couple years back?

Can't remember what it's called but I think Guy Ritchie had something to do with it.

The Man From UNCLE

Oh yeah Skyfall was pretty dope.
Spectre was the boring one I was referring to.

See, someone like Pratt would probably do a good job. I'd be down with them doing something different, as they have done seemingly every time they changed Bonds.

You only have to look at the Nolan Batman films compared to the Snyder ones to see what happens when they try and do the same thing with completely different people.

Agreed re Skyfall & Spectre.

I'm also agreeing with changing it up as opposed to the same specs. Hence why I'm thinking a younger, and definitely funnier, Pratt-or-similar will be in line next.

Elba would give off a similar personality to Craig IMO, but the big difference obviously being his hairline...........

Elba will be too busy being the next Doctor, won't be able to fit in Bond.

I'm starting to think this almost needs its own "Who was the best Bond" thread, complete with poll and Slobs option, (and lets face it, Slobs truly is the Bond of Mayfield)..

Doesn't need a poll Connery is the answer and anyone that says different needs to watch Goldfinger

Like most people, big fan of their early stuff. Anything after they became involved in Transformers was rubbish.

[plague]

did they hit after Limp Bizkit or before?

for some reason i thought Limp Bizkit killed that whole genre (until it pops up again) but maybe Linkin Park got more mileage out of it?

Just my opinion but everything up to their new record was Solid to me. A Thousand Suns is criminally underrated

Les Murray is too big for this thread

I'm actually genuinely sad now, the guy was inseparable from football in this country

[margie]

so sad

[q-money]

RIP Les - brought the world game into the loungerooms of kids that had never seen anything like it. I remember my weekends after sport were parked in front of the TV watching world soccer, the truly brilliant serie A review show, and the match of the week. exposed a generation of kids to euro football. i still can't take a free kick without thinking about the words "hristo stoichkov"

a legend

[The Dunster]

Very sad day indeed.

[plague]

the truly brilliant serie A review show,

Was that with that Tony Pollumbo(?) dude?
Had the full Italian accent and used to get so sad when 'eeenter meelan' used to cock up.

Is he still alive?

[plague]

You'd obviously put Richie Benaud in the same bowl but prob no other media figure repped their sport better yeah?
