i read an article where pierce brosnan stated that he 'couldn't drive a stick' either. i can't recall if he said he had to learn or of they provided a manual..but i recall at the time that a bond character not being able to drive a stick was unbearable. i rank it up there with when they cast people like the first guy who played batman (keaton is a great actor..but a superhero?) and that other milk-toast fella who played spider man..toby maguire i think it is? sheeesh. if you're gonna cast a 'superhero', give me somebody with some goddamn muscle at least..who cares if they can act, the whole deal's about special effects of superhuman powers anyway..not acting supremacy. i'm out..
