What would a Tarantino Bond flick look like?

Apparently, he's pretty pissed off at the Broccoli Family, for not calling him to remake Casino Royale, an idea he says he proposed two years ago.

If Tarantino actually were to make a Bond flick, what would the thing look like? What obscure pop tunes would he stick on the soundtrack?

Would it even be possible for him to make a (successful?) Bond flick, since his usual sensibilities seem so very different from those of the Bond series(e.g. Tarantino having an actual visual style vs the usual stuff, soundtrack use, character/dialogue emphasis, etc)?

Pam Grier would make a great James Bond.

(To me, anyway) A key feature of Bond fillums is the Englishness. I certainly don't want a bunch of smarmy yanks crapping on about cheeseburgers and kung-fu.

I agree that it would be shit.

Anthony's quite right: Tarantino filming the novel Casino Royale would be fantastic.
