From the Chicago Sun Times, discussing an idea of Bono playing the next Bond.
I suspect that the Bond congnoscenti may be leery of Bono as the replacement, and drastic changes would be required to update the role. The Bond girls (remember Ursula Andress as Honey Rider in ''Dr. No,'' or the irresistible Lana Wood as Plenty O'Toole from ''Diamonds Are Forever'') would have to be replaced by current female role models such as Madeleine Albright and Condi Rice. The famed salutation would have to be changed (''Bono, just Bono''). And the darling role of Miss Moneypenny would have to be filled by that scruffy character called The Edge.

So good to feel validated, adding to that whole "Greatest love story never told" byte we got during Elevation.
