Stephen Hawking - Bond Villain
« on: December 04, 2014, 10:34:28 AM »
Stephen Hawking wants to play a Bond Villain. They absolutely need to find a way to write him into the new Bond film "SPECTRE" which apparently starts filming this week.

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

Bond films are usually just plain good escapist nonsense, but the franchise is getting a little long in the tooth.  Inserting Stephen Hawking as a villain might rejuvenate things a bit.  And it would add some serious cool factor for those of us that know who Hawking is.
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

Yep, it was Ernst.

And speaking of Blofeld, came across this article...

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-2860934/Christoph-Waltz-speculated-play-villain-Blofeld-new-James-Bond-movie-Spectre.html

Not all that familiar with Christoph Waltz.

The last new ones I saw seemed to be one long series of car chases and Jason Borne Kung Fu fights.  Maybe adding Hawking would slow things down a bit.

He would be a perfect Bond villain. Or make him the big bad behind the villian

Crossover potential with Terminator franchise--Skynet was really a hypergenius with a voicebox. [tinfoil] :cool:

Which would be ironically great, because I think Hawking recently released an article or statement that AI and robots will be the death of the human race.

Viral marketing for a new Terminator franchise?
