we need richard kiel to do a spectacular cameo in the oncoming bonds ... preferably the next.

not only would it be a precious continuity of the bond franchise ... but lets face it .. we fans would go mental !

in an ideal world money would grow on trees , champagne would flow from our taps , politicians wouldnt lie ...... AND JAWS WOULD HAVE AN EPIC BARE KNUCKLE , 'ALL IN' BRAWL WITH CRAIG.

it would probably overshadow the whole film and be a salient talking point but its an obvious winner for the producers.

[Righty007]

Richard Kiel is 67 years old. No thanks.

[sharpshooter]

No. Continuity issues. Age factors. Craig era is not going for that sort of villain anyway.

[Jim]

Richard Kiel is 67 years old. No thanks.

Gums?

No ta.

[Cody]

Yeah, the role would have to be recast if the character returned. Leave Jaws with Dolly in '79 and happily ever after.

He shouldn't have come back once. Twice would be intolerable.

[Zorin Industries]

No thank you. I think the series has moved on from the heady days of underground bunkers and cartoon villains.

[Skudor]

Jaws was great (even if he was given a silly and unsatisfying ending), but it's time to move on to different things. I wouldn't mind something equally original though.

And please bring back nice villain's lairs. Not just for the sake of having one, mind you, I just miss them. Monorails and all. If it's there for a purpose I see nothing wrong in having an iconic, grand lair.

[Tired And Emotional]

I agree that we've moved on from cartoon villains like Jaws, and it would be a jarring distraction, quite apart from Mr Kiel's geriatric status - not so much Jaws as Dentures.

[Skudor]

He might take the teeth out and throw them at people now.

[00Twelve]

Absolutely not.

[Mister Asterix]

Forget Jaws, I say bring in Horror from the novel.

[jrdoo7]

you could get one of those huge pro wrestlers like the big show(paul wright). you could call him jaws 2. you could make him menacing like in swlm.

[Royal Dalton]

Jaws shouldn't come back. Dolly, on the other hand...

"Well, here's to us!"

[killkenny kid]

In the words, of all the Halle Berry haters around here. Hell No.......No I really mean it.

[Royal Dalton]

Maybe Kiel could be sat eating a bowl of Shredded Wheat, as Bond walks past? Like in that old telly advert.

[Judo chop]

Only if they bring him back in 3-D and push the promo tag "This time it's personal!".

[Publius]

Leave him to the video games, I say.

[The Dove]

Uh, no!! Definitely no Jaws for the Craig era. Jaws worked well in the video game, Everything or Nothing, but I can't see how they could possibly bring him back for the movies..

[Qwerty]

No.

[Royal Dalton]

This thread title sounds like a new Justin Lee Collins show.



"I am gonna track down one of THE iconic movie villains of the 1970s, and get him a role in the next James Bond film. I am gonna Bring Back Jooooorrrrrrrssss!!!"

[Fro]

Definitely Dalip Singh (aka the Great Khali) should get the call if they ever decided to bring back Jaws.

[Qwerty]

Only if they bring him back in 3-D and push the promo tag "This time it's personal!".

LOL!

[dodge]

Not even if he comes back with his yodeling bride. No comeback was ever less eagerly awaited...since Sharon Stone's Basic Instinct 2, wherein she was still eager to show us what we were less willing to shell out to see.

[Santa]

That seems to be a resounding 'no' for Jaws' return then. Gutted.




Not really.

[Scottlee]

If Richard Kiel was still the same age as he was in the early eighties, I might be tempted to agree (with numerous reservations!). As it is though, leave a good thing be.

[Spurrier]

Jaws would be out of place in the DC era, even re-casted. Contrary to what some feel, I would not mind cameos of past Bond stars whether it would be of former Bond girls, villains or 007s. It's a way to connect the past to the present. After all, one of the appealing things about the franchise is its establishment of tradition and continuity.

[MarcAngeDraco]

we fans would go mental !

Well this fan would only 'go mental' in a really negative way...

[Andrew]

Isn't he unfortunately confined to a wheelchair?

[Jericho_One]

Far from original, but...

Hell noooo!!
(very frightened face)

Do camels belong in Antarctica? No.
Do penguins belong in the desert? Nope.
Jaws in the DC era? Not in a million years.
