Best James Bond

[sean miguel]

I think the current one - Daniel Craig is the best Bond ever. He's a gritty, no nonsense, bad ass British assassin.
Pierce Brosnan was too much of a pussy and the previous Bonds were cheesy.

Also, my favorite Bond song and opening credits: (00:12)

Pierce Brosnan for me as bond!

Pierce, though his movies were mediocre, he's the Bond to me. Perfect combination of class, ruthlessness, charm and wittiness.

Can't stand to look at Sean Connery after hearing he beats up his women and is fine with it, especially as he hits ladies in the movies too. I'm rooting for random-soviet-cannonfodder more than him.

Roger Moore wasn't serious enough, James Bond is not about dressing in flamboyant outfits and disco-dancing.

George Lazenby - no, just no.

Timothy Dalton was pretty good, but never really became Bond to me.

And finally Craig, who's definitely a badass and all that, just not very Bondish (Bondage?). He's more a Jason Bourne-kinda guy, way too uptight and less about the women and elegance.

That's what I'm talkin' about.

Sean is my favorite, but the most faithful representation of Bond per the novels is George Lazenby...

Read'em and you'll see...

#1 Sean Connery

The best James Bond is a dead James Bond. :tongue:

 

[compal]

loved the Brosnon Bond series -

Daniel Craig's Bond... is still so so. Wasn't a big fan of Skyfall - let's see what the next Bond film is like...

 

[venus_plower]

Pierce Brosnan is the best James Bond. But his bond's movie kinda lame...

Craig Daniels is the best, but his bond's movie really kick ass....

Connery, Sean Connery

Pierce Brosnan is my favorite because he was the most realistic and he had a mix of everything of all the previous Bonds, Connery's style, Lezenby's sensitivity, Moore's charm, and Dalton's badassness. I don't like Daniel Craig because some of the stunts are too unrealistic and seems almost that it's Parkour, and he doesn't have the charm or look of James Bond.

James Bond characters are rather dull and false.

You'll have to read Ken Follet's Eye of the needle book.

His agent is much more realistic, cynical and the story does not end happily.

That's exactly what I thought, too. But I don't like JB anyway so why would I care. :o

Sean Connery no more.

 

[Deepcover]

Pierce Brosnan. He was very handsome with his cool dark looks in Goldeneye. Sure he might have been the most sensitive of all the Bonds but idk...In a way he brought a sexiiness back and a cool sensuality to the part. Dalton was much too serious as Bond. I'm not even sure if he enjoyed playing the role at heart.

I'm pretty sure it was intended to be Parkour, and I liked it. The thing that sets the James Bond franchise apart from other adventure/action movie series is real stunts, not CGI. The actor may not have done the stunt, but their stunt double did.

Sean Connery was the best

Dalton played Bond seriously because Ian Fleming wrote Bond as serious so Timothy Dalton did it "By the book" when everyone else didn't farthest being Daniel Craig. I agree completely what you said about Pierce Brosnan, I think he was the most prepared to play Bond because he was going to be Bond in 87 but couldn't get out of his contract with Remington Steele.
