I think he'd make a great Bond villain. In a classic Bond movie of course, not in one of those dull action flicks starring Daniel Craig.

I remember a TV ad for Meat's live shows in 1995/1996 in which he appeared as a Blofeld-like character.

Meat won't quit singing. Period. After all the setbacks he's been through, anyone else would have quit years ago.
I still have the t shirt he signed for me in 1989 when he was just touring clubs, everytime I hear talk of him quitting I take out the t shirt and read. Short and sweet...

Ok, Quantum was a bit pants. OK, quite a lot pants. But Casino Royale is one of the best Bond films. Fact.

Casino Royale worked well as an action movie but it lacked almost everything that makes a Bond movie a Bond movie - and Craig seemed to present one and the same facial expression through the whole film. One of the reasons why I like Meat as an actor and even endure an Uwe Boll flick if he belongs to the cast: The guy knows how to use his face.

I think the main problem with Casino Royale was that Daniel Craig potrayed Bond as a pretty nasty and unlikeable bloke. I know it's closer to how Fleming imagined Bond to be, but it didn't make for a good film. Quantum Of Solace on the other hand was just a shaky-cam mess.

Oddly enough the third film is on hiatus, as MGM have run out of funding while quite some way into shooting already.

"Never, ever stop Rocking! Meat Loaf"

I am consoling myself with the same thought! Meat is always telling us to "Never, ever stop rocking." I'm hoping he is going to listen to himself!

I agree with Vicky
My thoughts exactly! Dr House with Meat was great!

Meat did a great job in Citizen Jane!!! Great performance as the reserved, persistent Police Detective. I'd like to see him do a sitcom. Maybe as the funny Dad or crazy neighbor. Something that uses his natural humor!!

And if you haven't seen this before, don't get too excited.

This was the result of a social event, a considerable ammount of drink, a gulable reporter who doesn't always check his sources, and a mlukfc staff member who thought i'd be a bit of a laugh to see how much he could lead this guy on for.

A lot of other reporters picked up the story and ran it without checking it too.

I think it's a bit of a clue that a TEXAN said he would be "chuffed" to get a role.
I don't think "chuffed" is a common slang term in the lone star state

Come on BBC, I own you, do what I say!!!

I bet chuffed is used in Texas, mainly in prisons, and with a very different meaning to the UK one!

If he quits, he will have his reason, as anyone of us has for the choices we make. But it'd be nice to see him and Patti acting in a short sitcom series based on Paradise
