The Best James Bond?

[Atomic Punk]

Who do you like the best out of all the dudes who played Bond? I like Pierce Brosnan the best. Sean Connery is close though. The absolute worst by far was Timothy Dalton. Christ the guy wasn't even good looking. He has some of the worst hair I have ever seen in my life too.

Also, what is your fave Bond flick? There is some channel I have that was showing old Bond flicks all week long, so I thought I'd ask.

Sean Connery.....
....I think I am swayed by his voice though.

I agree. Back when he was bond, it was all about style and wits. Now it has turned into explosions with no plot like all other modern action movies. It doesnt make a difference whether its vin diesel in XXX or Pierce in some new bond flim. Its sad what they have come to.

No one will ever top Sean Connery.

Best Bond flick...Thunderball or From Russia with Love

And you know that we'll never have another Bond girl like Pussy Galore.

I disagree.

IMO, to play a good Bond, you have to portray class along with being bad-ass. No way Vin could pull that off.

Actors like Connery, Brosnan, and Moore defined what Bond was supposed to be.

Connery said that "Thunderball" was his favorite Bond movie. My personal faves are "Moonraker", and "Live and Let Die". Both are with Roger Moore as Bond though, unfortunately.

As far the the newer Bond movies, JuicePimp has a good point. Still though, I generally like the new films. The one with Famke Jansen and Denise Richards was good. I can't remember the name of it offhand. I also think that Brosnan is a cut above the rest, in his potrayal of Bond though. Although the movies he plays him in aren't as good.

I liked Roger Moore as well. Moonraker was good, I especially liked Richard Kiel in that one...Jaws rocked!!

I wasnt saying that Vin would make a good bond, but rather that MGM (or whoever is really in charge) stopped making good Bond movies.

True you do need class, my point being the new movies lack it.

i think goldeneye was the best bondd film, but for some reason i'm partial to moore as bond.

Ok, I see what you were getting at.

Moore wasn't bad. I mean, he basicly had everything it takes to be Bond. He is tall & good-looking. He's from the U.K-an obvious requirement. I think the fact that he had to follow Sean Connery might be why he gets so little respect in his role as Bond. I mean, that is a tough act to follow. On the flip side of that coin, maybe the reason people like Pierce Brosnan so much, is that he replaced Timothy Dalton--an obviously HORENDOUS choice to play Bond, and a mistake that they luckily fixed quickly. I do think that Moore had some of the best movies though.

What was the one he played in, where it starts out with that AWESOME ski-chase scene in the beginning of the movie?? That one was a VERY good Bond flick. Maybe that was Moonraker. I can't remember. "For Your Eyes Only" maybe???

 

[IvanOffelitch]

Sean Connery hands down. The man epitomizes the word "cool" even today.

Roger Moore would be next in line.

The others aren't worthy of the name "Bond.....James Bond."

I agree and honestly can't think of anyone now who could carry the Bond 'auora" like Connery and Moore did.

I think that Ben Affleck or Matt Damon would be worthy to be the next Bond, maybe even Heath Ledger.

 

[theoak01]

Sean Connery and Brosnan are great,no real fav movie however

IBWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH. O my God bro. You can't be serious.

 

[Island Son]

Connery.
Pierce has the looks but he's not scary enough.
Clive Owen would be AMAZING. Have you seen him as The Driver at www.bmwfilms.com?

That's the funniest thing I've read all night.........

 

[coldblue1955]

ol' sean connery is the #1 bond in my book.

 

[powerforward]

last year the rumor was russell crowe as bond, now the current talk is colin farrell as the new bond.

i'm a fan of crowe, but i don't think he would make a good bond, and i don't want farrell anywhere close to a bond film.

I don't like Pierce Brosnan though. He comes in last. Tim Dalton and Moore are tied for 2nd.

 

[powerforward]

no love for george lazenby?

 

[Sebby]

I wasn't a big fan of Pierce Brosnan. I thought Halley looked great in some sence of the last Bond movie, but I didn't like Brosnan. Sean Connery is the real deal.

Goldfinger....best Bond line ever.....

Bond: " Do you expect me to talk?"

Goldfinger: "No Mr. Bond, I expect you to die....."

Classic.
