[Forward Look]

He's young, talented, and he just scored a critical success with the movie Twilight. British actor Robert Pattinson has just been introduced to the rest of the world, via his movie, in the same manner that Sean Connery did at the time he made Darby O'Gill and the Little People. As Pattinson is still in his early twenties, his acting ability is still being developed, but in a decade or two, could he be a future Bond? Twilight is just the beginning.

I would seriously vomit if this guy was cast as Bond (no exaggeration there, either). After seeing "Twilight," I see a horrible actor, and a real cocky douchebag in real life. I'd honestly prefer Daniel Radcliffe over Robert Pattinson as 007.

But that's just my humble opinion.

[Captain Tightpants]

he just scored a critical success with the movie Twilight.

50% @ Rotten Tomatoes ... if that counts as a critical success, then I should be able to wipe my own behind with a film reel, vomit all over it and be in contention for the most popular film of the year. That's what Stephanie Meyer did to vampire lore, and it seems to have worked for her.

(PS: the short version to this post is "no!")

I don't see Pattinson as James Bond. I don't know anything about him as an actor, as I haven't seen a single film that he's been in, but I just don't think of him as James Bond material. He may end up surprising me, though.

If anyone from Twilight was going to be cast in a Bond film, I'd give my vote to Kristen Stewart about a decade from now. She's a fantastic actress who would, about ten years from now, be every bit as good of a Bond girl as Eva Green.

[Dr.Mirakle32]

If any vampire is gonna be Bond, I think TRUE BLOOD's Stephen Moyer would be fantastic.

[dinovelvet]

No, I don't think so. And thankfully, EON know better than to look at teen pin-ups for Bond.

[Santa]

Possibly the worst idea I have ever heard.

[Dangerous Liaison]

NO. He's an atrocious choice for Bond.

Agreed. Bond is not an Abercrombie and Fitch model with a brittish accent.

[Dangerous Liaison]

Not even. Plenty of A&F models are attractive. That Pattinson fellow looks like he was hit in the face with a 2x4.

[Johnboy007]

Absolutely not.

[BlackFire]

Erm.. leave him the Edward Cullen role please.

[Bradley De La Cloche]

NO.

Sorry for stealing the font but...

Um, he looks like he'd make a good fairy

Perfect for re-enacting the PTS of Goldeneye then, Hildebrand?

I said to my sister "That guy looks like he's fallen off the ugly tree and hit every damn branch on the way down!"

Seriously though, Bond? NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO! *Fists to the Heavens* NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

NO!!! End of story.

How about Scott Maslen from 'Eastenders'.

[Vauxhall]

Well, he's better than Daniel Radcliffe, but that's saying remarkably little.

[Aris007]

In a couple of...decades we'll talk about it again.
For the time being.........HELL NO!

[Bond_Assassin]

No just no. The guy represents nothing of James Bond. He's one the weirdest actors i've seen and honestly, I don't understand what girls see in him.

Well, we are living in an age where girls prefer their men to look more like women.

[BlackFire]

, Daniel Radcliffe is so damn OVERRATED!
