I know I'm behind the times, but can anybody tell me why Pierce Brosnan is not doing the next "Bond" film? IMHO, he was the best one.

Of course, I was also fond of Timothy Dalton, and they fired him, too. But Brosnan seemed to be great. What happened?

I don't think he had the same stage presence as Roger Moore or Sean Connery. He just didn't seem to have an assertive air about him. He tried, but it didn't come off as real to me.

I believe the "why" hasn't been officially announced or explained. Brosnan has strongly implied that he was fired.

I loved Pierce. Sean Connery is still the best. What I heard was that Bond was going in a different direction, starting with the younger years. Thus Pierce was too old.

There is only one Bond; the others are pretenders.

...IMHO, Sean Connery got even better with age. See what we have to look forward too...
