List Your Favourite JAMES BOND....

[Josey Wales]

Hi! to all,

Just interested to hear everyone's favourite Bond, from best to worst and why?

I'll start us off:

Best 1) Moore - I know he's not everyone's favourite, but for me Moore is BOND, simple as that, I grew up with his films and I just like the way Moore plays Bond, I really don't understand why his films get so much stick, films like Live and Let Die, Man with the Golden Gun, Spy Who Loved Me & For Your Eyes Only are all classic Bond films IMO.

2) Dalton - I very nearly put Dalton top of the list, IMO his two films, The Living Daylights & Licence to Kill are two of the best of the entire series and I loved his portrayal as Bond, I personally thought he nailed the part and it's a real shame he only done just the two films.

3) Connery - I like Connery and he will always have the advantage of being the first actor to play Bond, he also starred in one of the the best Bond's ever in Goldfinger, but for me I just prefer Moore & Dalton.

4) Brosnan - I personally think this is where the Bond films stopped feeling like Bond films, out of the four films Brosnan did only Goldeneye was solid the other three he did were mediocre to average at best, I don't think it was that Brosnan himself was a bad Bond but his films were certainly poor.

Worst 5) Craig - I've got nothing against Craig as an actor, he's good as an action actor but I just never feel as though I'm watching Bond when I watch his films, his films just feel like any other action movie, and out of all the actor's to play Bond he's the one actor that just does not look the part, whenever I see him I just don't feel as though he's Bond, something about him just does not fit in my eyes.


NOTE: I have never seen OHMSS from start to finish, so I can't comment on Lazenby, however I did try to watch it once and I could not get into it at all.


So what about the rest of you guys?

Cheers!
