*shrug* I could see it, make him a snot nosed villian bond enjoys - with lots of screen time for this - beating the farking bejesus out of him. I think that'd be enjoyable.

More like "Dr. Oh-HAYLE-No!"

Dr. "This is gonna blow"

For the love of film, NO.

So, his favorite role would be one where he is seduced by an older woman... I'm going to call this a clever marketing ploy to kick up interest to the older ladies who go nuts over tween stars...

Please let this happen.

Look, kid... You seem like a nice enough person, so I'm gonna lay this out for you...

You get to pick one:

Squeaky-clean teen heartthrob with girly hair who sings and dances and makes the girls go SQUEEEE!!!

OR

Bad-ass misanthropic villain with an eyepatch, and a plan for world domination, who inspires fear, foreboding & menace.

If you're known for one, and try to do the other, you come off looking like an idiot, unless you're a really great actor. And let's be honest and not fool ourselves... that's not you.

Considering how both of the new Craig bonds had kind of wussy villains, Efron would be par for the course, wouldn't he?

I'll work for SAG minimum if I can be seduced by younger woman.

Cheron: I'll work for SAG minimum if I can be seduced by younger woman.

If you're willing to be seduced by older women then you get SAG maximum.

In other news, instead of implying in interviews he's worthy of filling Dustin Hoffman's shoes, Effron should take 3 to 6 years off, join the Actor's Studio, or try to get permission to audit at the Royal Academy, and LEARN THE CRAFT OF ACTING. Maybe get good at it, and return to Hollywood as the next Johnny Depp and get taken seriously. Maybe realize, like the girl who plays Hermione in the Harry Potter movies, that it's probably not what he wants to devote his life to, but hell, he's a 21 year old millionaire, and every teenage girl in America wants his love mojo.I reckon he'll get by.

Failing that, he'd be wiser to study the career trajectories of Dustin Diamond, the Coreys, River Phoenix, MacCauley Culkin, ad infinitum, rather than Connery and Hoffman.

Oh, I know you did. I'm busy in the kitchen spitting in your salad, and wiping my ass with your hamburger bun.

I'll be right back with that water, and thanks for your patience.

And have Diddy as James Bond?

That's a recipe for fail right there

SEAN CONNERY needs to play a Bond villain.

That is all.

I want Zac Efron's battery shut off. Can I have my wish?

I've never seen Efron in anything, but I think a young, genius sociopath would make a good Bond villain. Of course, he may not have the chops to play such a character, I wouldn't know.

Someone like Walcott from Deadwood but young and rich. A freaky sociopath who seems to literally believe he can do no wrong.

 
mhd 2009-11-23 04:27:57 PM  
Yeah, like your agent would allow that, Zac.

HEY. Le Chiffre takes offense at that.

If you are an actor then you are self employed. Even if you do one job a year then technically speaking, you are not unemployed.
(That's what I was told at the dole office.)

Trained actor, 15 years in the biz. Not (very) famous

/Did I mention that I'm in Ninja Assassin?

If they cast Connery as a Bond Villain, they'll also need to cast Trebek's mother as a Bond Girl.

Make him Dr. No's bratty, spoiled son who Bond beats the shiat out of for a lead. Just a solid 5 or so minutes of Daniel Craig going to town on Zac Efron.
