yes, but they simply found him to be too old. That was all there is to it

A damn shame too. Brosnan was the best Bond in years. He truly was a great "all rounder" Bond; IMHO, he successfully combined the ruggedness and charisma of Connery, the wit of Moore, and the dangerous edge of Dalton. The producers were FOOLS to let him go. Too old for the role? Not a chance! Moore was 57 when he did "AVTOK"! And did you see him in "After The Sunset"? The boy still got the skills.
Honestly, when I read about who they're considering as a replacement it makes me despair. Colin Farrel? Ewan McGregor? Ioan Gruffield?!!! Sheesh!

What did he get from Lazenby? The ability to throw a mean punch, perhaps ?
Oh, and I did hear about Clive Owen too. I didn't mention him because, well, if I mentioned him, and Dougray Scott, and Colin Salmon, and every other rumoured Bond contender I'd be here all night!

Mmm hmm. And so did Colin Farrel and Dougray Scott {the latter's MOTHER rubbished the rumours to the press! That's no joke, folks!}

That's what I said. Farrel rejected the role, as did Scott {via his mother!}

The difference is that I was only mentioning serious candidates that I wouldn't like to be Bond ...
But ssshhh! Don't let Dber hear us talk about this!

Tom Cruise? Too young. If we're going with Americans, what about Clooney?

Mid forties isn't so bad. Wasn't Pierce in his mid forties when he took the role?

Perhaps you're right. Still - Clooney would be a cool choice ...

I think he'd be a cool Bond, personally. But he's way out of the producers' price range anyway.
I sincerely hope he doesn't play Batman again. "Batman And Robin" was awful ...
