Leonardo Di Caprio To Be The Next James Bond email this discussion to a friend?

What is your immediate reaction?

With the new Bond film, and forgive me but as I am a James Bond fanatic but the title of the new film is a bit stupid and a bit of a mouthful? Mind you I can't stand Daniel Craig either!

So I thought Leonardo Di Caprio would make an excellent 007 what do you reckon?

He's far more handsome than Daniel Craig, more of an action hero, more of a James Bond, more of a ladies man and certainly more popular than the current 007?

So would you be more inclined to watch the James Bond film if Leonardo Di Caprio was James Bond instead of the awful Daniel Craig? I certainly would!

Hopefully when they are looking for the next Bond, Leo will be in the wanted list to play the favourite spy

I think it is crazy to put Leonardo Di Caprio as the next James Bond because even though I have never been a big James Bond fan I have seen several of the movies which I liked,and I have played almost all the James Bond video games that are out in the world,and I do not see Leonardo as the James Bond type,and I think they could find someone better,maybe someone older,or someone who has more of a rugged look like the way I picture a secret agent to look.


myLot reputation of 99/100. wolfie34 (13927)   ranked 1 out of 99 in james bond  1 year ago

I respect your opinion, but maybe in about ten years time when Leo is older more rugged and more masculine, hopefully by then Craig would have given the role as 007 up. What movies did you like of Bond's most of all? I have to say Roger Moore is the 007 that I like best out of them all because films like Moonraker, A View To A Kill, Octopussy all starred Roger Moore. Thanks for your input!

Are you serious? Leonardo is a great actor but I don't think he is convincing as James Bond. He is too boyish looking and doesn't have the macho look. I think Daniel Craig is very suitable for the role. He has the charisma and obviously very hot looking.

HI buddies,
The next james bond is di caprio is better to see him in a next james bond
movie and I will watch his movies if he act in a bond movie.He's is the one of
the best actor.I think in the future next hero will be leonardo di caprio 007.
If he get a chance in bond movie definitely he will do and accept that offer.

in future.So good man and looking handsome.

Sorry but Di Caprio just doesn't cut it for me! Maybe if I actually see him in the role, he will grow on me!

Sorry dude I don't like this idea.
coz Di Caprio is not physically fit for Bond 007 character. Whatever you say i never agree with you.


myLot reputation of 99/100. wolfie34 (13927)   ranked 1 out of 99 in james bond  1 year ago

No problem, I respect your opinion, we can't all be the same, be rather boring wouldn't it! And no point for discussion

I actually think that Daniel Craig is a very good James Bond wolfie! Mybe even one of the best yet! Brosnan was too stereotypical and pretty much more of the same yet Craig has added a whole new darkness and emptiness to the character that we have not witnessed before. I think DiCaprio is certainly an accomplished actor but it is hard for me to picture him as a Bond.Maybe in another 10 years or so when he has aged a little more and added some further distinction to his look but not now. Just my two cents! wink


myLot reputation of 58/100. Maggiepie (1630)   ranked 74 out of 99 in james bond  1 year ago

Hmmm. I've yet to catch the Craig Bond. Your comment re his new, "darker" side explains why some want DiCaprio in the role. You see, Bond (as played in all the previous films, at least--haven't read the BOOKS), was made to appeal to adolescent boys. The character was DELIBERATELY left shallow, a sort of template over which young boys could play out their dreams, so the character _couldn't_ go dark & deep. That wouldn't allow them to identify with him!

The sleek adult Connery made him appeal to girls, & some women, however. I'm one of them, I readily admit. Now that I'm mature, however, I believe I might ENJOY a darker Bond. Still, Craig just never LOOKED Bondish to me, though he DOES (unlike Leo) look OLD enough, experienced aplenty, to be a Bond....

I think some women are enamored of DiCaprio's cuddly good looks (okay, _I_ don't consider him a _great_ actor); I hear (not ALL, but) many of them here touting looks, & not ACTING (I DO understand that; I have my own list of lookers I'll watch in anything.../o). Thus I believe they're attracted to the SURFACE, & not the possibility of a real, gritty character, such as the Bond you've described. Many people just want escapism, & having an actor color that fantasy darker won't appeal to them.

Funny how it was just the opposite with the BATMAN character....

Your two cents are always valued James72. What did you think of Timothy Dalton as Bond? It was a shame he only did two because he was a renegade Bond and wouldn't follow the rules like his predecessors. I love Living Daylights probably one of my all time favourite Bond films because it is so action packed and some great acting not just by Bond, take the evil henchman Necros, he was brilliant, he could actually be mistaken for Bond himself! Sorry to digress but I will never get used to Craig as Bond and sadly I won't be rushing out to see the new Bond film whereas before I'd be first in the queue!

hi wolfie I like Di caprio but not as James bond,
Sean connery maybe but not Di Caprio for this role.
He is too short and not darkly sexy like Sean and the
others that came after him. I know Di Caprio is a great
actor but not for this particular role, it needs a taller,
moresexy man.


myLot reputation of 99/100. wolfie34 (13927)   ranked 1 out of 99 in james bond  1 year ago

I do see your point, I guess Leo is more sexy in the boyish department rather than the mature man who's 'been around' I guess I am biased when it comes to Leo and agree that Sean as well as Roger both had the 'guts' and 'masculinity' to put their roles into Bond

I have never seen a movie about James Bond.(Have I miss anything?)
But in my opinion,James Bond=Sean Connery,eventually also Roger Moore.
When I saw this topic yesterday night,my thought was - not Leonardo Di Caprio for this roll.
I don´t know how good actor he is,but in my eyes,he doesn´t look as a hardboiled guy.


myLot reputation of 99/100. wolfie34 (13927)   ranked 1 out of 99 in james bond  1 year ago

Never sseen a movie about James Bond? Wolfie collapses and faints LOL! Have you missed anything? Well have you got a couple of days for me to fill you in? I was brought up on Bond and loved every single film, from Connery to Moore, Dalton to Brosnan but Craig just doesn't do anything for me and whereas before I would rush out to see the film at the cinema, now I couldn't give two hoots about the film which is a great shame Craig has spoilt it all for me, but at least I have the other 20 films I can watch without him!


myLot reputation of 63/100. ennasus59 (1254)   ranked 27 out of 99 in james bond  1 year ago

I´m not a fan of James Bond.
Perhaps I´m strange,but we all have different taste.
i like most of the movies by Hitchcock
