Im simply not interested in having an origin story for Bond. I don't want to see him going through Navy school etc.
We have already seen Craig earn his 007 status to.
Early to mid 30s with standalone missions, no overarching story nonsense. My two cents.

EXCLUSIVE: Tom Francis has auditioned to play James Bond for Amazon MGM. • The 26-year-old British actor is best known for appearing opposite Nicole Scherzinger in the stage production of “Sunset Boulevard” • Francis is one of many performers jockeying for the part in a casting process that is ongoing and being overseen by Nina Gold (“Game of Thrones”) variety.com/2026/film/news…

@DCUHypeGuy there was also a significant emotional advancement made the 2 movies prior to skyfall
English
Henry Cavill is currently 43
Daniel Craig was 44 when Skyfall came out
Henry Cavill is the obvious choice

Casting director Nina Gold says the next James Bond actor must “ooze sex appeal.” She is also looking for someone “young enough to play him in 3, 4 or more pictures.” (Source: Deadline)

@maryarchived i’d love henry cavill but if they play a 5 movie series like craig did, he’s pushing 60 unless they can speed up that process. personally i want paul mescal
English
they know henry cavill would make them the most money and they WON’T do it. the excuse on paper is that he’s too old but that just doesn’t hold up.

Amazon has officially begun auditions to cast the next James Bond. Who do you want to be the next James Bond?

they couldn’t bother taking a photo with the lake in view for Chicago bc it would absolutely mog NY and Toronto

@tomandmartys how many thousands of people go home and drink after a frustrating day at work just to go back again the next day. exact same situation here just instead of drinking (which he still may do) he expresses his emotions. some people really have no idea what it’s like to be a athlete

King Rory got his way so of course he’s being gracious. This is how abusive relationships work. But don’t “frustrate” him tomorrow or they’ll be hell to pay.
Kyle Porter@KylePorterNS
Here are Rory's full comments on the Aronimink setup from Saturday and overall for the week. Walked back what he said on Friday night a little bit.

@Cam_Jourdan i know its frustrating and stressful for the players but it’s really nice to see a course really testing them.
English
Scottie Scheffler called Friday's pin locations at the PGA Championship "kind of absurd."
"This is the hardest set of pin locations that I've seen since I've been on Tour, and that includes U.S. Opens, that includes Oakmont. I did ask, I asked Fooch, who caddies for Justin Rose. He's been around a long time -- and I asked Teddy too -- have you seen anything like this before? They said maybe Shinnecock is the only place they have seen that has pins that could compare to this."

This is their job.
Millions of dollars are at stake.
This one of four weekends that matters.
Can we please stop being impressed by pros utilizing the driving range?
Nicole Rae@NicoleRaeGolf
Rory McIlroy finished his round around 2pm today. He’s still grinding on the range at Aronimink at 6pm.
English
@JustinRayGolf i love rory but i can’t help but thinks he who swings the driver sometimes, how much of a difference would it be for him to swing 90-95% and hit a full P wedge or lighter 9 iron

Rory McIlroy in round 1 of majors this season:

Bryson has not shot under par at a Major since releasing this video

Let me say this loud and clear. I will be monitoring all schedule releases and anybody who makes a joke about this disgusting controversy will be put on my list and face potential legal action. You’ve been warned.
Yahoo Sports@YahooSports
The NFL will not be reviewing team’s videos for jokes surrounding New England Patriots HC Mike Vrabel ahead of Thursday night’s annual schedule release, per Front Office Sports. The league is letting teams use their own judgment regarding potential content about Vrabel’s connection with Dianna Russini.

@robzzz__ @NHL_Watcher yea it’s tough but the top end players still sign for big contracts, just look at dallas. florida got some steals on barkov and tkchuk because the salary cap jumped so much
English
@deWolfjn @NHL_Watcher Must be nice to have higher salary cap than canadien teams in forms of no income tax
English
Not sure the NHL salary cap is actually producing the parity it was designed for. Tampa made three straight Cup Finals and won twice, Florida has done the same, and Colorado has built a stacked roster with depth that feels a tier above most of the league.
English
Is this supposed to be a controversial take because I’d assume most people agree with this sentiment?
Christopher Powers@CPowers14
“If Scottie plays his best golf, Rory cannot beat him.” Take quake from Brandel 🐐
English
@NUCLRGOLF this is kinda weird argument because at rory’s peak he was called the european answer to tiger. and he hasn’t been that guy in a while but if he’s playing like that, how could you say this
English
“If Scottie plays his best golf, Rory CANNOT beat him.”
Do you agree with Chamblee? 🤔
English
@ibamboozIe would you not trade 3 first to win the cup? seems like a no brainer to me
English
they leaked so many assets just for this lineup man like just from an objective point awful asset management
Evan Rawal@evanrawal
New look Avs lineup. Landeskog - MacKinnon - Necas Colton - Nelson - Roy Nichushkin - Kadri - O'Connor Kelly - Drury - Kiviranta Toews - Makar Kulak - Burns Ahcan - Manson Blackwood in net
English
@DwayneNHL @LebronCherry at the end of the day, if a majority of people can’t immediately agree that a guy in what you describe as “generational” than they probably aren’t
English
Makar i didn't put as generational either. Both those guys will end up being Elite elite 1st line talent.
doesn't make them generational. As i said to be listed as generational you have to be a clear 1-2 best of your generation.
As it stands McDavid and Mackinnon are ahead of matthews.
Brett Hull scored more goals than gretzky for a few years but i dont have him as generational either.. he's a elite elite goal scorer one of the best ever.. Similar to matthews.
Like i said people hand out Generational way too easily.
It's reserved for the best of the best and only a handful of them.
But surely it can be debated and it Is.. i personally wouldn't put Matthews as generational. I'd put him as Franchise #1C and the best goal scorer of this generation.. Scoring 69 goals def puts him there, and if puts up a couple more 50/60 goal seasons then the conversation can change. I think he fades in the back end of his career and ends up a top 10 goal scorer of all time perhaps. Not sure he's got the health and consistency to hit top 5 etc.
We're already seeing the injuries and decline before 30.
English
Hockey fans need to learn the difference between a franchise player and generational player.
Generational are once in 10 years best in the game type players...
Crosby
Mcdavid
Ovechkin
Mario
Gretzky
Jagr
Orr
Lindstrom
Hasek
Roy
Franchise players are elite elite but not quite the best of their era..
Joe Sakic
Sundin
Lafontaine
Mogilny
Mackinnon
Adam oats
Brett Hull
Pierre Turgeon
Curtis Joseph
Carey Price
Matthews
Draisaitl
Kucherov
Eichle
Quinn Hughes
Then you have players that will trigger debates..
Lindros was going to be generational but injuries killed that.
Forsberg.. considered by many the best swede to ever lace em up, another injury plagued career but i'd argue for him being close.
Cale Makar could end up being Generational when it's all said and done, he's on that path at the moment.
Ray bourque. Paul Coffee likely could be called generational as they were the best of the best in the 80's on D.
I just don't like to give our generational easily.. There should be 1-2 forwards, 1-2 Dmen and 1-2 goalies per generation that get that type of tag. the clear best of the best for that position.
@MinorMidgetGTHL you said something that made me think of this post so i made it. Give me your take on it all when you're bored.
English
@BizNasty2point0 you gotta convince robertson to come here as a contract stipulation, and sign a extension

I’m drawing up a contract for Sens Army this week. We’ll get the round table and discuss.

@NHLRumourReport i suppose it depends on on what high end player and top prospect mean but in his 6 real nhl seasons kyrou has been ppg once
English
Bruce Garrioch: League executives say that Jordan Kyrou of the Blues...is available; you’re looking at a high-end player, a top prospect and a 1st; “The Blues want a king’s ransom for him,” a league executive said - Ottawa Citizen (5/8)

@ClapBombz @bigheadhcky taylor hall will probably end up having the better career than perry stat wise but perry has been more accomplished winner. that being said. i don’t think either should be HOFers unless hall really starts putting up significant numbers again plus winning the conn smyth
English
@bigheadhcky People would say Corey Perry isn’t a first ballot HOFer so the answer is no
English
Some brazy questions for your consideration:
1. Taylor Hall is currently 2nd in the NHL in points, 1st in +/-, and the best player on the most dangerous line in hockey — is he the Conn Smythe pick on Carolina?
2. If Hall wins a Conn Smythe, is he a first ballot hall of famer?
