Re: Best James Bond ever

Ohh...this is hard; I liked them all.

The thing about Daniel Craig is that he played a very different kind of Bond. More realistic, more human, less compassionate and less corny.

As for the other guys; I always thought Roger Moore kicked ass and always thought Timothy Dalton was highly under-rated. Always thought Pierce Brosnan was great too.

I've got to hold off to decide a favourite and a least favourite.

Re: Best James Bond ever

I'd go for Daniel Craig because of realism and grittyness. He seriously seemed like a guy out of the SAS unlike many of the other guys.

Re: Best James Bond ever

I chose Lazenby, he only did one movie but he fit the character very well! His counterpart was Diana Rigg ( the original Emma Peel from the Averger series) but I loved it.

Must mention Sean Connery as the most believable in his trained ( Fit) years, Roger Moore should have quit years before, did not care at all for Timothy Dalton or Daniel Craig, and Pierce Brosnan ( although very handsome and elegant) did not fit the bill physically.

In my humble opinion, OLD Roger Moore was the WORST

Re: Best James Bond ever

Really tough one.

Connery is the orginal, but I really like Moore as well. And imo Pirece had the Bond look, always when I think of Bond his face just fits perfectly. Might have something to do with my age but that's how it is for me.

Also think Dalton was underrated, but there just was something with Craig. He gave Bond a well needed spark of realism and made Bond more interesting. For the moment he's my favourite!

Re: Best James Bond ever

In my opinion Timothy Dalton was one of the best Bond actors. I really like his appearance! Nevertheless Sean Connery and Pierce Brosnan were great Bond actors, too!
Roger Moore played Bond more like a comedian... ...and Daniel Craig made a great debut. He also played Bond very convictive, I think.

Re: Best James Bond ever

Ok... I've finally decided to go with Craig (after him, I'd go with Brosnan)

EDIT: ^^ For the reasons I said in my first post.

The worst? It hurts me to say this, but Roger Moore. I still liked him though

EDIT: ^^ In this company, he feels a little weak
