It's not their acting ability, it's their accent. I elect Guy Pierce.

I kinda thought it was funny that you decide no to two Aussies, then nominate a third Aussie for the role.
I think that the newer bond films don't have the oomph of the old. In the older movies he always had gadgets that were "futuristic" but slightly believable - I just don't think his gadgets have been like that anymore - either they are probably doable now, or they are complete fantasy (like the invisible car). I think the francise is just about due for retirement. Quite frankly, I think the success at the box office may in part be due to there being a complete lack of decent films coming out of hollywood.
If they do decide to keep going, perhaps they could choose someone British/English for the role

- Ewan McGregor perhaps...?
