A bit of harmless silliness that would never get off the ground, but fun to imagine nonetheless.

"Producers are hoping to feature Sir Roger Moore, Sir Sean Connery, George Lazenby, Timothy Dalton and Pierce Brosnan together on screen in a Bond equivalent of The Expendables": http://www.denofgeek...led-exploration

Of course, the worst thing about something like this if it ever happened - quite apart from probably being terrible, tarnishing legacies and the unavoidable comparisons to the original cinematic spoof Casino Royale - would be the credence it would lend to the terrible 'code name' theory.

Inspired by the ExBondables spoof poster no doubt, as well as a very old dreamcasting suggestion posed to Sir Roger once.

Thanks AMC Hornet, I hadn't heard of The ExBondables before but have just now looked up the poster. Pretty good haha. It's hard to know if Rog was being serious but I suspect he was just being his S***-stirring, tongue-in-cheek self.    No doubt someone had brought The ExBondables to his attention and he thought it would be a fun idea to play with the media with!

 

Whoever came up with applying Bond to The Expendables, it's a pretty clever double-referencing title they came up with.

That's the feller.

 

I wanted to post that image too, but I don't know how.

 

Thanks for following through.
