LOL @ Roger Moore. I really could never buy him as Bond, he's too foppish and high class looking. And his accent is all wrong, too soft and delicate compared to the gruffness of Sean Connery.
Craig might not be the prettiest BOND there is...but, he's the ONLY one i believe could really kick the bad guys' arses. well, him and Sean Connery.
come on, now...be honest, can you actually SEE the likes of Brosnan, Moore, Lazenby or even Dalton do some damage or even have the guts to tell someone off...?? nope. thank you.
3:14 Jeeez, Dalton is beyond handsome and sexy. And in every interview I've seen, the intelligence, warmth and humor really shows. I love hearing him say "dickhead"!
@tastybrownies No, I agree with you. Daniel Craig sucks. I hope the next Bond will be someone with more charisma (personally I'd like to see either Richard Armitage or John Simm).
IMO I think each...era has it's own favorite bond. The people that grew up watching MAINLY Connery(or where introduced with him as bond) will think he is the best for obvious reason. The people that grew Up with Moore will think that too. PERSONALLY for me I grew up more with Brosnan and Craig but my favories are Moore,Dalton,Connery/Brosnan Simply because those where the bond movies I was first introduced too.
It's tough to say which Bond is best, because you're either just stating the obvious or going with the film with the Bond actor you like best. Connery set the standard. As a Bond FILM, OHMSS, Live and Let Die, Goldeneye, dare I say Casino Royale and From Russia with Love are probably the best in no particular order.
I always wonder what sort of movie View to a Kill might have been had Dalton played Bond. By that time, Roger Moore was an old goat and the action sequences as a result were ridiculous. As well, the thematic nature of the movie was a bit more gritty than previous Bonds and it's a shame they ended up wasting one of the best Bond villains, Christopher Walken on such a dud of a movie and an over the hill Bond.
I still remember the first time I saw the parachute opening in the spy who loved me.. I grew up with Roger Moore and I still admire him for his style and easy charm.
The things that Daniel Craig gets praised for, he originated. He was a conflicted and emotionally driven Bond and brought an intensity to the role. And after more than a decade of the cheesy Roger Moore films, that's a good thing.
That's what I'm saying, Timothy Dalton was the first totally serious Bond that had conflicted feelings towards his job and was willing to disobey orders completely and blatantly. He was dark and moody and unpredictable, especially seeing the things he did in his second outing. each Bond actor is different, but I think Timothy Dalton was really great, I liked seeing a rebellious and moody Bond that was also very sensitive. Not everyone likes his portrayal and that's fine too.
True, Daniel Craig perfected the darker Bond. The only Bond actor who was hit and miss was Roger Moore, I don't dislike his Bond but he wasn't the best. Sean Connery disliked Dalton's portrayal too. Connery was a class act, even in the crummy Diamonds Are Forever and Pierce Brosnan wonderfully embodied elements of previous actors, I just watched Goldeneye with my dad, mostly because of your video. Lots of Bonds to choose from, including the overlooked George Lazenby.
@CRITTERBUSTERS Personally he's my favourite after Connery and Craig, but a lot of people don't like he lack of interest in the ladies. He, like Craig, played a "realistic" Bond, and it seems the fans prefer a comic book character come to life a la Brosnan and Moore.
I totally Agree, and you're thought on dalton being in a view to a kill is interesting because I really think it would've been a far better film, I think Dalton would've done great.
damn I had NO IDEA they actually recorded that crocodile scene with live crocodiles. Silly me I actually thought they made it with some sort of dummies.
Great documentary, really interesting. Live and Let Die is currently on TV now, jsut saw the crocodile scene :D Roger Moore is a living legend. Dalton was a decent Bond too.
I really love watch 30 years of james bond 1992. I can remember when i first saw this in 1992. It was Classic, i saw on Saturday 3rd October 1992 & then taped it. I saw on Friday as well in 1992. I want this on DVD! i was 11 yrs old in 1992. Leon Shackleford!
It's a shame lasers don't work. This is possibly the most unrealistic thing in a Bond movie... I mean... real lasers burn whatever it is projecting them... they're made of light and so they bend when they get really hot... they can't burn through metal at any range, ever... and if it could, Bond's legs would be burned to hell. But still, people don't watch films for realism. This is an amazing scene.
I remember seeing and recording this at the time. I was 8, already obsessed with Bond and it was pretty exciting to see this and The Living Daylights. I watched it over and over again!
although i think timothy dalton hadn't got the nonchalance and elegance of connery or moore, you got to respect him for his stunts and his tremendous activity in his films!
why do you lie ! Lazenby only did 1 film and he was better than Dalton!!! Connery is and will forever be Bond ! Myself and ever Bond fan would love to see him once more in a bond film, even as a retired 00 ... !
Real Stunts, fantastic. Respect to Dalton for doing all his own and the croc walk but the best was the ski jump - respect!! I think the reason stunts sont get applauded in cinemas today is because we never really know if somebody is doing the stunt or not - or if its just digitally created. They never should have introduced digitally created stunts/scenes in movies.
connery is the iconic bond we all think of, and also the closest interpretation to match that of flemming's character from the novels and short stories.
lazenby made an excellent replacement as he had the dry charm, was handsomely manly and sophisticated in the same way connery was. lazenby and connery are true interpretations of bond.
sean connery and roger moore were the best but sean was jealous of roger moores sucsess because sean said he definatly woundnt do another one after diamonds are forever but in the same year as octopussy and he was so desperate he decided to make an unoffical bond film and roger had a much harder job than sean because he couldnt do anything sean did
roger moore was too old and too ugly. he is actually 3 years older than sean connery. roger moore played bond when he was 58 and had botox injected in his face. roger moore is grandpa bond!
Lets face it people, all 6 Bond actors were unique and great in their own way. The good thing about all of them is that neither of them tried to immediate the other and that they all played Bond in their own way. There is no best or worse Bond. Connery is the best because he was the original? There was an actor called Barry Nelson who played Bond on TV before the first movie came out. Craig is too blonde to be Bond? Think again, Moore was 'accused' of being blonde when he got the part!
I'm all for what you said as well, all of the actors covered as many parts of the personality as they could and everyone added their own touch to it, so the best bond actor would be a mix of all of them i think, witch makes them all pretty equally good, all tough some people like one more than the other just like music bands or even the songs on an album. From a real bond fan.
yes connery was brilliant but he was the first top do it in movies...if roger moore as the first would peoplesay roger was the best? Roger was actually offered it before Connery but was tied to a contract with The Saint
I agree about Moore, he made Bond look a bit of a perve. Bonds meant to have smoothness about him and be suave and sophisticated. But Moore just made him look cringy. I prefer Connery, Brosnan, Craig, Dalton, Lazenby THEN Moore
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
30 years of bond...and are'nt we sick to fucking death of the same,boring,formulatic,plot!! I know I am. Don't get me wrong,connery & moore were good in the roles but after moore left it just got so repetitous & predictable from start to finish. YAWN!!!!
IMO it goes Connery, Craig, Brosnan, Lazenby, Dalton, Moore. No offense to Moore but he didn't exactly have the physicality I'd imagine a special agent would need.
You could see Moore be a spy? Most people could see him throwing a successful punch let alone being a spy. I liked him a lot as a bond, but he was more of an aristocratic play boy than a secret service spy.
LOL @ Roger Moore. I really could never buy him as Bond, he's too foppish and high class looking. And his accent is all wrong, too soft and delicate compared to the gruffness of Sean Connery.
