Some good mentions up there...here are some I haven't seen yet.
-Danny DeVito. A bond villain has to be able to monologue. I love DeVito in evil or sinister roles. He seems to embrace them and really go for broke. Plus, not being a physical threat to Bond, he'd have to use deceit, charisma, and brains. All things I think he's good at portraying. Not talking about a hammy performance like "The Penguin" (though I liked him there), but more dark and direct.
-Jim Carrey. Not like how he played the Riddler, but deadpan. He can pull this off in dramatic roles. There is something unsettling about watching him play a character subtly because we all know how over the top he can go. It's like an underground tire fire or something.
-Robin Williams. Alas, we won't get to see it, but everything I said about Jim Carrey would have applied here as well. He'd not be playing the genie, but maybe a twisted cousin of the professor from "Good Will Hunting."
-Steve Carrell. I really, REALLY think he'd knock it out of the park. Rolling the dice a bit, but he's great at a monologue. He's got a sad and sort of internally tortured persona in much of his work. If he were written correctly, I think he'd be excellent.
-Ricky Gervais. No explanation needed really, he's the master of needling and could really enjoy of the glee of a plot that would humiliate or frame Bond. He's also very British (that is such a huge part of Bond, it can't go unnoticed).
-Colm Meany. Maybe as a henchman, but how has this guy not been in a Bond flick yet?
