Brosnan is bond no more!

SilentSecurity: Well, the next James Bond movie old Pierce won't be the man in action. At 52 years old he was fired from the job of 007. Out of all the actors he's my second favorite to play Bond. Connery was the best in my opinion but Brosnan easily takes second place. Firing him kinda bums me but I guess it was time, him screwing young chicks at 52 doesn't seem as realistic anymore. It amazed me that he was already 42 when he made his first 007 film "Goldeneye" in 1995. He was only in 4 of the bond movies and the producers said he was coming back for a 5th. He got a phone call saying that his role as 007 was no longer needed (at least he didn't take it so bad he threw a phone at anyone ).

Here's what he said about it in Entertainment Weekly:
~Beware this contains spoilers for Entertainment Weekly's August 19th issue~

Brosnan says he's grateful to have had the role, but adds: "It never felt real to me. I never felt I had complete ownership over Bond. Because you'd have these stupid one-liners — which I loathed — and I always felt phony doing them."

Well Pierce you'll no longer have to tell people you want your martini's shaken not stirred. I'm still sad to see him go .
