[CHill1045]

@Slacktoo same as me:L it's like you've read the minds of every good bond fan! you genius!;)

[Roadracer987654321]

When I saw Roger Moore as a child in the Spy Who Loved Me ( the Greatest Bond Film ever produced , a Masterpiece ) at the theaters for the First Time. It was my First Bond Film I ever saw at the Movie house. When I saw him Kill an Assasin Coldly and Stare him Directly in the Eye as he pushed him back off a Ledge by Flipping his own Tie out of the Man's hand. I just thought to myself in Private , " My God, Who is this ? ", As I later learnt. It is simply, Mr. Bond.................

[niwanasod]

very nice

[Slacktoo]

1. Moore

2. Connery

3. Dalton

4. Brosnan

5. Lazenby

[Conservative1992]

@Slacktoo EXACTLY the same list as me!

[Slacktoo]

@Conservative1992 Great minds think alike, my friend!

[ARHCxXxOO7]

@Slacktoo Move Dalton one up, and take Connery two down - and that's mine lol

[ANOTHERHOLEINYOHEAD]

I met get the audio book and listen to it on my mp3 player.

[OldBluesGuitar]

A dear man, I've just read this book, and thoroughly enjoyed it; could scarcely put it down in fact. I'm old enough to remember The Saint very well. Can't understand why there is so much controversy about 'who was the best Bond'; each actor brought their own interpretation to this role, and Moore's light-hearted Bond had a charm all of its own. As an expat. Londoner myself I wish him all the very best. May he go from strength to strength.

[mrbain123]

Moore isn't my favourite Bond (although he is in my top 3)...and no he may not be Fleming's Bond - at not least character-wise.

But damn the guy's cool :)

[58fenix]

@mrbain123 Then who is your favorite?Let me guess the man that did

only 2 right?

[mrbain123]

@58fenix Nope, the man who did 4

[58fenix]

@mrbain123 Suprised,very suprised!I remember debating with you about

something and I thought it was about dalton?But I think it was about craig.

but I am suprised to hear you say brosnan?

[mrbain123]

@58fenix I like Dalton (in fact I like them all), just not as much as Brosnan.

[58fenix]

@mrbain123 So you acutally agree with me craig is great also right.

[mrbain123]

@58fenix Craig's ok but Pierce is better IMO. More sophisticated and Bond-like - as is Dalton.

[58fenix]

@mrbain123 Cool,Cool,when I hear things about who's better between

brosnan and craig I like hear why and opinions.So I think its great to hear

sometimes.I dont mind that one bit but as for dalton you already know the

case a about that.

[rickv404]

I agree with the Moore backers. Roger was Bond. I never understood why anybody was crazy about Connery. Moore had a sense of humor and I think that was important to being Bond. Brosnan and Craig are just too serious in the role. Dalton wasn't bad. He just didn't catch on.

[garibaldi54]

Roger Moore IS James Bond to me. For all the critisms his version was the most entertaining. An absolute legend.

[myblueroad]

@garibaldi54 Spot on!

[myblueroad]

don't write slanderous rubbish commenters

Moore WAS Bond

[JuanMacready]

@myblueroad Connery was Bond, Moore was just a joke.

[myblueroad]

@JuanMacready I beg to differ sir

[hectorsalina]

@myblueroad Roger Moore's version of Bond was more like a comic book. Look at how he battles Jaws. It wouldn't have worked with Sean Connery fighting Jaws.

[myblueroad]

@hectorsalina My point exactly, that's why Moore WAS/IS Bond!

[erebus73]

Top top man. And a credit to the movies. And a true English great. Why has the other person here called him racist ?

Because he didn't get on with Grace Jone's perhaps ? Well not many human beings do.

Roger Moore is Fabulous.

[JuanMacready]

@erebus73 Nope, it's because he funded apartheid. I wish the talentless racist cunt had died of lung cancer 30 years ago. He was far too old to play Bond as well.

[erebus73]

@JuanMacready He didn't appear racist whilst filming Octopussy. He got on well with all the cast and extra's in India and spoken fondly of them. And he appeared to be having a good time.

[JuanMacready]

@erebus73 He even made racist remarks in Octopussy.

[RogueRotting360]

@JuanMacready Bollocks. How is "that'll keep in you a curry" racist? I could see an argument for stereotyping Indians, but that's as far as it goes. But it's ultimately a benign remark, nothing to take to heart.

[JuanMacready]

@RogueRotting360 Octopussy was a slow, overlong and boring piece of crap, and Moore was far too old to be playing Bond.

[myblueroad]

@JuanMacready Octopussy was a good Bond and spy's are ageless

[JuanMacready]

@myblueroad Octopussy was a boring, racist piece of crap, and the talentless Moore was already too old for the part in Live and Let Die.

[myblueroad]

@JuanMacready Listen here my good fellow, let's not go there, shall we?

[JuanMacready]

@myblueroad It's a pity the racist Moore didn't die of lung cancer over 30 years ago.

[myblueroad]

@JuanMacready Racist? You dear sir are the racist to make such a horrible comment. I will not respond to such rubbish.

[JuanMacready]

@myblueroad Moore is going to burn in Hell for funding the apartheid regime so many times.

[myblueroad]

@JuanMacready Where do you get your information from sir? You've obviously been misinformed.

[JuanMacready]

@myblueroad Arch-Thatcherite Moore deliberately broke the ban on funding the apartheid regime in South Africa no less than three times. He even talks about it in his crappy book.

[58fenix]

@JuanMacready What are you talking about????????????

[JuanMacready]

@58fenix Moore was a major supporter of the apartheid regime in South Africa.

[58fenix]

@JuanMacready What does that have to do with him being racist?

[ringbearer1420]

Roger is the best bond because he is Bond. Ian Fleming's Bond, it's no wonder he was his choice all the way back when Dr No was being made.

[JuanMacready]

@ringbearer1420 No he wasn't.

[timewarlord]

A true gentleman and one of my all time favorite actors, a man honestly deserving of his knighthood for his mamzing theatrical contributions and endless charity work.

[JoeStunner]

Moore remains my favourite Bond, but as The Saint, he was flawless. A true gent who deserved his knighthood for all his tremendous charity work.

[pennylaneproductions]

He wrote and earlier book called 'Roger Moore's James Bond Diary' about the filming of Live and Let Die. Good stuff!

[SpitamaFan]

Evryone always says that Connery was better than Moore. Connery certainly deserves credit for creating the character on screen, but the other reason that is often cited for Connery's alleged superiority was that his Bond was more gritty.

I don't buy it. The plots in Bond movies are pretty unrealistic and ridiculous to begin with and only one of the Bond actors who really managed to capture the ridiculousness of Bond films whilst still being a believable action hero was Roger Moore.

[JuanMacready]

Moore was too slight to be a spy. He should never have been cast since he was already too old when he started.

[ringbearer1420]

@SpitamaFan I personaly think Connery did a disservice to Bond, he sorta turned him into to the lecherous womanizing philanderer that he ISN'T in the Books, Connery is sorta unapproachable, where as the book bond I always saw as a compassionate guy you could have a good chat with and who knows all the best restaurants, this I believe is Roger Moore, he's more like Bond than he or anyone gives him credit for.

[myblueroad]

@ringbearer1420 Totally agree with you. Had this conversation the other day with someone. I felt that Roger Moore was truest to the character. Suave, with a sense of humor, able to jump out of planes while chasing international bad guys around the world one minute, then cooking a gourmet meal and entertaining a lady the next. lol

[JuanMacready]

@myblueroad Moore was already too old to play Bond when he started.

[myblueroad]

@JuanMacready Ridiculous JuanMacready, I challenge you to a duel sir!

[JuanMacready]

@myblueroad Moore was already 45 in Live and Let Die. Connery was only 40 when he finished as Bond in Diamonds Are Forever.

[myblueroad]

@JuanMacready He may have been 45 but he still was able to handle Kananga pretty well and win the affections of Solitaire!!

[RogueRotting360]

@JuanMacready Connery and Lazenby were exceptions to the rule. Every remaining Bond actor began playing the part in his late 30s to mid 40s.

[charlieiscool1000]

hes such a great actor and an English gentleman he was the most light hearted bond

[SuperNitpicker]

I still think of Sean connery when I think of Bond. That's not to say Roger Moore isn't good just not as good

[Aguz25]

With Craig playing the role, 007 turns into another generic action hero. Moore was classy, and most people don't get that.

Roger the best Bond ever.

[imachristian100]

sir roger your more of a bond than that scottish prick connery ...your a star long live england and you mr sir moore

[sheemobile]

a true gentleman

[JuanMacready]

@sheemobile A true racist.

[400SA]

Excellent, always fun to watch Moore, a true English gentleman! I have his book and it is a great read with some nice personal pics. He seems to have a lovely family and many admirers outside of the movie business as well. A life well lived and here's hoping to many more years!

I have every Bond film up through A View To a Kill, guess that demonstrates my feelings on the matter. Good efforts from Pierce, but it simply wasn't the same.

[renzyrenzyrenzy]

wow, he's gorgeous. the way he talk is gentle and the voice indeed. Sir Roger and Sir Connery is the best in Bond.

[PeterFirthFan]

Does the racist Tory tax exile Moore talk about all the movies he made under the apartheid regime in South Africa?

[BondGraceBond]

lmfao, "go buy Sean Connery.. i mean my book" lmao!!! Oh Roger you silly man.

I LOVED Roger Moore as James Bond, is my favourite along with Sean Connery =] Their both my favourites. Sean Connery was the rough and humour. Roger Moore was by far the best humour as well as charm. XD

[mwoldin]

I would love to see Moore playing a villain. In Hitchcock's day he would have had the kind of role that Robert Walker had in Strangers on a Train.

[neoperseus]

I have lived most of my life trying to emulate Roger Moore's style. I think Sir Roger should get royalties for every blazer jacket ever sold....And, by the way, for my money Roger Moore is the best Bond.

[drewlsy]

Sean Connery is, and has always been in a legal spat with the Broccolli's (the producers) over unpaid royalties since his last production, which in turn, soured his relationship with all the actors. I don't think that he or Roger have anything personal aginst one another. But when Sean didn't show up for an important ceremony regarding the Bond franchise, where all the living Bonds attended, his absense left a bitter taste with everyone, including Roger Moore, I'm sure.

[SamFisherCell]

he has always seen Sean Connery as a rival it seems :P

[frost122585]

I really hope he gets another big part in a movie. I love the idea of him playing a role in the next Bond movie- as like a cameo or something. I think the audience would really enjoy that - and it wold add some light-heartedness to the Darkness of the new ones.

[WrestlingRage]

The new bonds are fucking bullshit, no gadgets nothing ! Last good bond was made with Pierce Brosnan, Roger Moore is good too

[marinduren69]

moonraker was one of the best .... anticipating NASA lunching odf space shuttle... great!

[guileniam]

good old roger he alweays seemed to be aware of the shadow of connery ,his inferiority and yet always jokes about their relationship in a fun way.too bad you dont get people let alone like this anymore

[nzlook11]

I liked Roger more than Shaun. He has a better sense of humour

[khav11]

this james is uncontionally the best

[garydobbs]

the best bond by far

[coolthing100]

" if you want a really good read, go and buy Sean Connery's...um ehm i mean bu bu buy my book My word is my bond"

[kassop]

Sir Roger moore i salute you, a true gentle man and my favorate Bond.

[randomdave30]

A true gentleman.

[TheCinemaization]

I don't see what's so great about Daniel Craig as James Bond.

[Morganathered]

Sir Roger's "Ffolkes" was his best film for me; however, in his "James Bond" portrayal, he reminded me that he once was TV's "Simon Templar" in THE SAINT. His first "named" appearance was as Ellizabeth Taylor's "beau" in "The Last Time I Saw Paris." On AMC, to see his handsome face onscreen, made me jump. He'll always be "Simon Templar" with no offense to his "Bond." "James" was not meant to be funny and Sir Roger allowed "Bond" to be ludicrous. How sad for Sir Ian Fleming, "Bond's" creator!

[ALLYDAEWOO]

roger moore i grow up with ur movies ur in my heart i wana meet u once in my life before i die . god bless u & may u live millions of years

[beatmaster8000]

'I'm Roger Moore, and this is my friend Mic'

God walks on earth.

[Hickey66]

Don't be unkind to Roger, i was his dustman. I never looked in it Roger.

[lamontsphurba]

i love roger moore...he is the greatest living englishman......i hope he lives to be a thousand!!!

[KISSarmyGuy]

Moore was a much better Bond than Craig.

Probably because Moore has a personality.

[mrrotweiler2]

very good book by a very cool actor, and yes Moore HAS personality whereas craig just pretends, craig has nothing that made Moore, Brosnan and Connery James Bond

[LucasEimert]

lol you're all moore fans i take it

[ringbearer1420]

@mrrotweiler2 I think Brosnan is more the pretender. Anyways at least I've though Brosnan is the Connery what Craig is to Moore.

[ringbearer1420]

@mrrotweiler2 I think Brosnan is more the pretender. Anyways at least I've though Brosnan is the Connery what Craig is to Moore.

[hectorsalina]

@mrrotweiler2 Some said that Craig is very feminine and has a deformed head, almost looks like a gay German man. We need a masculine Brit or a Scot to fill the shoes of Bond.

[JuanMacready]

@hectorsalina Moore was the most feminine Bond of all.

[45rpmSINGLES]

@mrrotweiler2 What a shame Roger Moore took out a court injunction to stop publication of Dorothy Squires explosive book on their life together, She`d even described in detail how he used to perform oral sex on her under the bed sheets ! No wonder he got it stopped tho !

[TheLadySinclair]

Great the book and better the man !

[madra2]

A mans man.

[calonpilot88]

He is Awesome !! love all his movie !!

[tompster2]

Great book. I just readed it. :) I got Rogers' autograph too when he was at Helsinki few days ago.

Sir Roger Moore, best James Bond ever.

[nuinleroin]

The man with the golden gun

[normalbutgenius]

haha.. ok.. i dont quite understand.. im not a big fan of moore though..

[s1sh]

C'm on. Really. Moore rules, and it is very nice to see he's still got his humor and wits intact :)

[samh09]

Roger Moore is my favorite Bond because he gave Bond a sense of humor. Connery was fairly serious, and not too bad with the puns. Dalton was dark, just like the character in the book. Yet Brosnan found the balance between Connery and Moore. This is just my opinion of course.

[Swanofdreamers]

Roger!! How I love him.

[marraige4U]

Any moore guys like this around?

[Mobee211]

God he was sooo sexy in his day. I'm in my 20s so Rog is a bit too old for me now :)

[ShariahPolice]

The Legend...that is...

Mr Roger Moore

A gentleman, suave and a cinematic legend

[ev1Lbw0614]

really classy

[Bowieaddick]

That man has always been a class act...

[bronte29]

his voice is soooo sexy!

[3r7ck]

He's a very nice man, quite hillarious! i'd like to have a grandfather like him...

[weewhelk]

There is only one james bond - roger moore

[weewhelk]

or should i say roger FWOOOOOR!

[inflatablewhores]

I was beginning to think I was the only person on the planet who preferred Moore's bond.

[praha007]

Although not my favorite Bond, he is by far the best entertainer when talking about 007.

Still miles better then Daniel.

I'll be happy to buy the book.

Thank you Roger, for all those fine moments.

A wellknown 007 collector from holland.

[llllkkiiiuik]

he was without adoubt the best dressed bond just loved his safari suits he had such class that the other bonds lacked a true englishman

[riokidagain]

But Roger Moore was best as the Saint and also in the 1970's TV show "The Persuaders".

I thought he was not that great as Bond (too much friviolity to the role).

Watch "The Saint"...tailor-made part for Roger Moore, and he was also a handsomer young man in those days. Its a great TV show too, 118 episodes in all (from 1963 to 1968).

[khra81]

the most charismatic bond

[supermusicpromoter13]

great to here english . sounds so wonderful on the list and no like yu know like well you have the picture.

[Waqorat]

He looks so good for a man of his age!

[ingareinar007]

I think all the Bonds have been right for their time, with Sean to start it all up -perfect! And Roger Moore? He is allways lovely to watch and to hear! He has a class I admire! Oh, he comes here to Oslo, Desember 4 and going to spend four days! I am gonna look until I find him! See ya Roger! :)

[1979394]

everyone i talk to always say they love the roger moore bonds best. im amazed they are not regarded by the 'high brow' critics more.

[deathofgothmog]

best James Bond ever funny stylish

[drwalpurgis]

Sir Rog. KING OF BONDS. We salute you.

[ingareinar007]

I agree! And I`m going to a bookstore in Oslo today to buy his new book, and Roger himself is going to sign it! I can not belive it, and I just can`t wait. I was so lucky to meet Barbara Broccoli here a month ago as well! I do love them all.. :)

[joker4893]

Roger was in my opinion the best because the storys were real good and funny.He was very funny and smooth. The sean connery movies were ok they were just to dry for me not saying they sucked they were good. Daniel craig has the swift roger moore and rugged side sean connery I love craig. It's hard to say who was the best they all did a great job.

[joker4893]

I wasnt introduced to bond until pierce after that I watched all of them between sean and roger. Sean was ok I dont think he was the best I respect him for what he's done for the character.

[cracktroop75]

dude holds the sexpiece for real

look at the guy hes made for the action

[tribecatom]

The Bond I grew up with. First Bond I saw was For Your Eyes Only in 1981 when I was 4. I remember a Sean Connery Bond being on TV some years later and me not accepting he was James Bond as I'd been led to believe James Bond was Roger. Hope to see you in Leicester Square tomorrow Sir Rog!

[PistonDriven]

Sir Roger! Thank you for a childhood of mystery, intrigue, action and really lousy efx!...I would not have been without...!

[jacktharippares]

he was the funniest bond ever i loved the touch of english humor in the 007 movies he was in always loved the 007 movies and i still love em, best darn movies ever!

[GERMANSMURF]

nobody hate roger hes was the best bond

[gregspencer92]

Personally I thought he was the most stuck up Bond out of them all but he was okay://

Please check out our short film:)

[ArizonaBuckeyeAlum]

No way. The most stuck up by far was Pierce Brosnan. Roger Moore play a light hearted Bond.

[TechTrevor]

that accent is beastly

[rongravy]

roger moore is still gawd. octopussy like a mofo!

[ShuffleStorm]

What kind of microphone is that? I would really like to know as that audio quality is brilliant!

[tapestrymusic]

he is not just an actor but a consumate speaker.thank God someone can still speak the beautiful language of english....I know the book will be informative and written with not just a bond but mr. moore as mr.moore who will make it a great read. I will head for barnes and noble this weekend and pick up a copy...thanks Mr. Moore for sharing yourself as you and also your word which is also Bond ...thanks much caos

[hardkicka]

He was/is without a doubt the funniest Bond

[reddemunn]

Class act. Not my favorite bond, but still good guy and love the entire franchise

[dmljm]

Roger is the best 007 there ever was ! 1000* TCB Danny

[Arre2006]

I loved Sir Roger Moore as Bond and he literally made an impact on my earlier life watching those films. Even today I can still imagine him giving those movie dialogues and no matter how many times I watch them I can't seem to get enough! I think that in the future people will still talk about Mr. Moores period as 007 and what an impact that had on people growing up with those films. God bless you Mr. Moore and I wish you the absolute best!

[TheBook0fThoth]

LOL, does anyone rember the RIP Roger Moore trolls back on the yahoo message boards 7 or 8 years ago?

Anyway Roger Moore is my personal favorite Bond, he's the one I grew up with. Sean Connery gets number 2 followed by George Lazenby.

[Boxxxy69]

LOL i remember that shit, i fell for it as well haha

[Jigitaetsa]

He added a great charm to his Bond personnage, I would definetely buy the book

[Bastiest]

He's voice been lowering as the age has weightened his face.

You can regognize that voice from everywhere but as it shows, tone of his voice has gone down.

[ExtremeBogom]

Its because at 80 years of age your testosterone isn't exactly what it used to be.

[vexsai]

keep up the good work

[studiophototrope]

bless you Mr. Moore, keep up the good work!

[Playgirl2day]

Roger looks great l could listen to him for hrs :)

[Comedian80]

Roger Moore is class all the way.

[batesm]

What a great guy. He's made quite a lasting mark on society. Long life, Roger.

[fauchfauch]

Neil why did you send me this?

[hanscarter]

I love Roger Moore, but he's no George Lazenby. ;-)

[fallingstarblues]

"If you want a really good read, go buy Sean Connery's... I mean, go buy my books, My Word is My Bond. Thank you."

80 years and he still has wit. Truly brilliant.

[LeedsLunatic]

agreed

[Voular]

He, himself, is great.

[palmmate]

His voice is great.
