I'd like to add Daniel Craig but his Bond won't be out until November.
Anyway, I recently bought Brosnan's final Bond, Die Another Day, so that explains that.
I grew up loving this franchise, at one point owning every film. But the sheer repetition in plots, villians, dependence on villians, lackluster characters and the lack of danger and risk on Bond's part has led me to believe on half of the 20 films (in release) are any good.
The winners:
From Russia With Love
Goldfinger
On Her Majesty's Secret Service
License To Kill
The Spy Who Loved Me
Goldeneye
Thunderball
Tomorrow Never Dies
Dr. No
Live and Let Die

Octopussy always stood out for me as one of the best Bond films. I lost interest after Sean Connery/Roger Moore left the part, although I have seen a couple of Pierce's Bond flicks.

I've always been a Goldfinger man. Connery is probably "the" Bond, but Brosnan was just as good and I hated to see him get seperated from this series. Craig looks promising and the film preview makes it look like the series is getting a fresh start of sorts.

I've never seen a single Bond's movie on the big screen
but those are hard to miss on the tube !
Sean Connery got better and a lot more handsome
after his Bond days as he grew older ...
Roger Moore wasn't bad but he never looked very "dangerous" ... !!
Pierce Brosman was perfect for the role ...
JAWS was the best Bond character ever !!
Now ... More importantly ... Who was the best
most beautiful Bond Girl ... ??
WARNING : Answer to that question on the next post is not, repeat, NOT SFW ...
HÉ ! It's the weekend after all !!

Now ... More importantly ... Who was the best most beautiful Bond Girl ... ?? Excellent question, Phil. To answer that: My favorite Bond girls: Diana Rigg (On Her Majesty's Secret Service)  Daniela Bianchi (From Russia With Love)  Claudine Auger (Thunderball)  Jane Seymour (Live and Let Die)  Sophie Marceau (The World is Not Enough)  Famke Janssen (Goldeneye)  Shirely Eaton (Goldfinger)  Michelle Yeoh (Tomorrow Never Dies)  Carey Lowell (License To Kill)  (I had to go on Sedaka to find this old post of mine but I could've sworn to have posted it here as well) |

Carey Lowell is Yummy
and Diana Riggs was the object
of many adolescent fantasies
back when she stared in "The Avengers".
In french, that serie was called
"Chapeau Melon et bottes de cuir"
(Melon Hat and Leather boots) ...

Hot damn Scarecrow!
Connery was the best Bond. Then Moore, then Dalton, even, over that complete douche Brosnan. Way too effeminate to play a Bond. I actually lost interest in the entire franchise, past and present, because I was so put off by the new ones.
That, and those TNT marathons really got old.
Bond girl = Claudine Auger. MMMMMMMMMMMMM.

Insanity, Connery is unquestionably the best Bond, Brosnan a close second. Moore started out good then wen to shit, Dalton completely sucked. Goerge Lazenby is good but not a good Bond in the Bond sense of Bondness.

I'll tell you what, I'd vote for Connery even if Daniel Craig was included, but I swear to god DAniel Craig practically TIES for first place.
That good.

I'm now qualified to concur on the awesomeness of Daniel Craig.
But wait.... the guy who plays Bond isn't supposed to be able to act
1. Daniel Craig
2. Sean Connery
3. Pierce Brosnan
4. Ah who cares at this point...

Ok, guilty pleasure - some of Roger Moore's efforts aint that bad. Even if he was all camp eyebrows.  |
