Posted: 8/20/04 at 12:31pmDoes anyone else think it is the most marvellous idea?
Nothing precious, plain to see, don't make a fuss over me. Not loud, not soft, but somewhere inbetween. Say sorry, just let it be the word you mean.

Posted: 8/20/04 at 12:45pmI've always wanted Hugh Jackman - but I'm afraid now that suggestion is not taken very seriously - at least on these boards.

Posted: 8/20/04 at 12:48pmHe was in contention for it though, along with Jude Law (maybe) and Orlando Bloom (NO!). Eric Bana originally denied he had been offered the role, but it's reported today that he has been and is mulling it over. I really think he'd be great.

Posted: 8/20/04 at 12:50pmEric seems a bit serious to me - Bond has really worked well with that mischievous twinkle, hence my preference for Hugh.

Posted: 8/20/04 at 12:54pmI dunno, he did look like he was suppressing a laugh all the way through Troy.

Posted: 8/20/04 at 12:59pmThat I would believe - but I couldn't supress mine long enough to buy a ticket for it, so I really don't know.

Posted: 8/20/04 at 1:02pmNow, if we can get Hugh as Bond and this whole spanking theme together in one place, I may just redefine 'swooning'!

Posted: 8/20/04 at 1:29pmpapa - any movie where people comment on a scene where he whips his c*ck onto a bar (however fake it might be) is worth checking into.

Posted: 8/20/04 at 3:08pmthere's that too. i thought he was just a loon after seeing chopper, but then i fell in love with his work as sgt. "hoot" gibson the d-boy in "blackhawk down." i went to the hulk just to see what he did with it. woulda been interesting to see what he coulda done with a decent script.

I think that's a great idea, actually. Remember to the OUTSIDE WORLD, he's "Wolverine", not "that broadway guy..."
