I was looking at the big picture of Pierce's post-Bond career all this time, did I not? And didn't I say these type of films are more appropriate as post-Bond actioners for Pierce than Thomas Crown 2 (which Drake and I agree that it would be a career suicide for him)? He did something new and great stuff in drama and comedy with The Ghost Writer and The Matador, respectively, and he should do the same for the action realm. When it comes to action, all I get from you as a response is another Thomas Crown. Those who think this would consider Pierce to be too old for action films. Besides Sean, look at Michael Caine. He last did an actioner that was released in '09, and he was 75/76. That actioner Mike did was Harry Brown, which is original stuff (not a sequel or a remake). If I want Pierce in an action sequel, give me Expendables 4. Sean has his with Indy 3. Let's not forget that most sequels made after 10 years after the first movie do not do very well unless it's Disney, from a brand name director who directed the first movie or follow-up to a classic mega-blockbuster. Thomas Crown was a hit but not a megahit, and no one is going to care for the sequel made after 14 years. Isn't that right, Drake? Plus, Thomas Crown remake was just a crime-romance, not an actioner. Making a sequel (especially as an actioner) is just ridiculous.
