Thanks for the info...always glad to see TD in a high profile production.Hallmark seem to produce some good stuff and I always enjoy thier epics.As of late I have preferred some of thier stuff to many movies on the big screen.

About time Dalton is in a high profile movie, I hope this one is not as dumb as his Looney Tunes movie

Was he in Looney Tunes for a considerable amount of time?

He wasn't on the screen for the majority of the time... but his roll wasn't just a passing character either. Check out this thread if you'd like to see some screen caps ==> Bond-esque Dalton - Screen Captures of Posters..., from Looney Toons Back In Action.

I recon they can put him in Casino Royale with a wig, and it'll be EON's best find for Bond if they can't get Brosnan back.

He'd never do it, but it's a pleasant fantasy. In that picture, at 61, he looks younger than Brosnan did two and a half years ago in some of the publicity shots for DAD.

If he were to do it - he's not going to, tabloid journalists reading this, but if he were - I don't think he'd even need the wig. From his official site, and also from the HERCULES press stuff:

Compare to this publicity shot of Brosnan from DAD (and no, it's not *that* one). Even with the tan and the Brioni, I don't think there's much between them. Dalton might be cheaper. :) I'm coming round to Dalton.

He looks very good in this pic...I think it was from something at the beginning of April promoting Hercules,so its very recent.I think Dalton would definitely be cheaper,but its not happening.I dont think they would bring an old Bond back,but he would have been a good villain or M.

Have to give Hercules a watch.Think its on in the States around about 16th May.Dont know about the UK.

Tim looks great, and if he were to be cast in CR, he could definitely pull it off. He's aged marvelously, with or without a toupee. I do think they will go with someone 30s-early 40s, though.

That's a great picture of Tim! I'll tell you one thing, if they can't find a suitable replacement, then they should try to get Dalton to do a one-off Bond movie and star in Casino Royale. Amazingly, he still looks very much the part.

Just a thought, but could Paul Telfer, the guy playing Hercules, be a Bond contender at all? Everybody else with British heritage is being considered.

The ol' bastard looks pretty good! I'd rather see him than that 'catistrophically talentless'(Jim) Brosnan. :)

I hate that I'm going to post this, but I can't suffer these things that I think are just plain erroneous. :)

Granted Dalton was not my favorite as Bond, but I do really, really like and respect Tim. Nevertheless, are you serious, spynovelfan? The bags under the eyes, and the double chin. Sorry, but he looks old. He looks very, very handsome. But he looks like a very, very handsome old guy.

The pic of Pierce looks like a guy in his late 40's/early 50's who's in great shape and doesn't need the makeup he's wearing.

The pic of Tim looks like a guy in his late 50's/early 60's who's in great shape and doesn't need the makeup he's wearing.

Listen chaps. He ain't coming back. It's nice to dream and fantasise. I do to. Here's a fantasy for you to ponder on those lonely nights when you can't sleep:

Dalton walks into the Casino, looking dangerous in a tux and does that brooding look he did so well, lights a cigarette from his gunmetal case and blows the smoke from his mouth like he at the Blayden Safe House in TLD. Then you hear the following narration in his voice;

"The scent and smoke and sweat of a casino are nauseating at three in the morning. I suddenly knew I was tired."

*wipes the drool from his mouth*

Anyway, enough of my sick thoughts. I need to get back to my university dissertation.
