The classic Bond is dead anyway. You want a classic Bond? November Man and The Coup are the ones we should pay attention to except that they're not Bond. But those two upcoming actioners feature a classic Bond actor, and we know who he is.

November Man, yes. But, The Coup isn't a spy movie rather than a warzone movie as I've been told, much like Behind The Enemy Lines, warzone movie with action elements, co-starring the latter title's headline, Owen Wilson. But, I can't wait for it, anyway, action movie and Pierce Brosnan? Take All My Money Now!

No, The Coup isn't a spy film, but Pierce will be a government operative. Speaking of Pierce's actioners, I hope they get better and better for the majority unlike his Bonds.

Devil May Care is a James Bond continuation novel written by Sebastian Faulks. It was published in the UK by Penguin Books on 28 May 2008, the 100th anniversary of the birth of Ian Fleming, the creator of Bond. The story centres on Bond's investigation into Dr Julius Gorner, a megalomaniac chemist with a deep-seated hatred of England.
Faulks wrote the book in the style of Fleming, and the novel carried the credit "Sebastian Faulks writing as Ian Fleming"; he also took the same timeframe as Fleming, setting the novel in 1967, following the events in Fleming's last novel The Man with the Golden Gun. He ignored the influences of the other Bond continuation authors and the films, producing a characterisation of Bond in the style of Fleming's. The story is set in the 1960s. Bond is instructed by his superior, M, to investigate a man named Dr Julius Gorner, and his bodyguard, Chagrin. Bond is warned that his performance will be monitored and that a new 00 agent is waiting in the wings if his actions go awry.
Bond flies to Imperial Iran (Persia) to investigate. Gorner owns factories and produces legitimate pharmaceuticals, however MI6 suspects he has other motives. During Bond's investigation he identifies Gorner due to a deformity of his hand (monkey's paw: a left hand resembling that of a monkey, covered with hair and without an opposed thumb) and establishes Gorner's complicity in a scheme to not only flood Europe with cheap drugs but also to launch a two-pronged terrorist attack on the Soviet Union, whose retaliation will subsequently devastate the UK. The attack is to be made using a stolen British airliner, earlier hijacked over Iraqi airspace, and an ekranoplan. Bond is assisted in his investigation by Scarlett Papava (whose twin sister Poppy is under Gorner's emotional spell), Darius Alizadeh (the local head of station), JD Silver (an in-situ agent), and Felix Leiter.
Bond is eventually captured by Gorner in the heroin plant, who explains that Bond is to be used as bait during a drugs delivery across the Afghan desert, and should he survive an expected ambush, is to fly the captured airliner into the Russian heartland. Bond would be identified as British upon its destruction, increasing the evidence against the British Government. Bond survives the predicted Afghan attack and plots an escape attempt, which sees Scarlett get away due to Bond surrendering himself as a diversion. In the morning he is taken aboard the aeroplane. Before the airliner can bomb the Soviets, with the aid of the airliner's pilot and Scarlett (who had been hiding on board), Bond regains control of the aeroplane and crashes it into a mountainside after parachuting to safety.
Meanwhile, Felix Leiter and Darius inform agent Silver of the second method of attack. Silver shows himself to be a double agent by failing to call in an airstrike against the Ekranoplan and by attempting to kill Leiter and Darius. In the shoot-out Darius successfully calls in the airstrike at the cost of his own life and Leiter survives only thanks to the timely arrival of Hamid, his taxi driver. The Ekranoplan is destroyed by RAF Vulcan bombers before it reaches its target. Bond and Scarlett escape through Russia but are pursued by Chagrin, who Bond finally kills on a train. Later Gorner meets him on a boat and tries to shoot him, but Bond pushes him off, where he is torn to pieces by a propeller. With the subsequent elimination of both Chagrin and Gorner, Bond considers his mission a success, and on condition that the agent M has waiting in the wings will not take his place Bond is sent to assess the new agent, designated 004. She turns out to be Scarlett Papava. Scarlett discloses that the story of her twin sister was a ploy to convince Bond to enable her to join the mission. Papava feared that if Bond knew she was a potential 00 agent, he would not have worked with her. With Bond returning to active duty, Scarlett moves off to her own operations as a full 00 agent.

August 17, 2013
Hulk Hogan remains a big part of TNA Impact Wrestling, which made the news of the Brooke Hogan release a surprise. 411mania.com reported on Aug. 17 that there are a few reasons given for Hogan's release from the company.

At first, some people wondered how Hulk Hogan would react to this, but apparently, Hulk was in the meetings where the cut was discussed and agreed with the move.

Brooke Hogan was involved in two angles in TNA Impact Wrestling, the first being as the estranged wife of Bully Ray and the second as the head of the Knockout's division. That second reason was just to give her something to do. The first was her main role in the company.

A big problem came when Brooke announced her engagement to Dallas Cowboys' football player Phil Costa. While most people know that wrestling consists of written storylines, the suspension of belief is needed and her engagement really hurt the Bully Ray story. As a result, TNA decided her storyline ran its course.

As a result, based on the TNA Impact Wrestling budget cuts, that made Brooke Hogan dispensable. With her engagement and upcoming marriage, Hulk Hogan understands that his daughter was looking at moving into other business ventures other than wrestling.

The release of Hulk Hogan's daughter was amicable, so there is nothing to worry about for Hulk Hogan's fans.

Did you see that MAD Magazine actually bashed Daniel Craig and his movies? They haven't been doing Bond parodies since 1990. But, here it is. They're back.

I had a look at the MI6 Bond forum and was surprised to see lots of Craig fans showing concern at the pretentiousness in Skyfall and future Mendes movies.

Basically, they are soap opera lovers. Craig is everything for them. I left that dirt-base months ago because I was left disgusted.

We're going to feed those creatures that anybody (except tall and handsome white actors even blondes in the likes of Chris Pine, the Hemsworth Bros., and Ben Cumberbatch) can be Bond. And just imagine the next Bond is even less Bond looking than DC yet praised while DC himself is bashed. This is what we need. BJ and Drake, what do you think?

Well, apart from being handsome, Bond should be looking posh, not an eye candy, am I right? But, as they want to see an ugly bodybuilder with "vulnerable" personality, they'd be hiring anyone unknown.
