Who's the best James Bond???

[Big Poppa Pump]

I liked Connery for years, but think Daniel Craig is the best now. Love the hard ********, more serious Bond he portrays.
That said, Dalton was also very good...

Uh-oh. Looks like I'm going to have to stand alone and say George Lazenby is closest to the books. Fleming's Bond is a bore compared to Connery, and Lazenby's wooden performance really matches it. I also liked On Her Majesty's Secret Service: the skiing getaway, the flirting girls, the mountain battle, and the tragic ending.

But my personal favorite was Dalton--I really dig the cruelty of his Bond.

This isn't even close - Connery wins by a light year.

Roger Moore would be a very very distant second.

 

[darkwarrior3007]

None of those guys are the best James Bond, they're all terrible. The best James Bond was James Bond Jr.

Connery was the best followed by Dalton in the under valued License to **** but Craig has a shot for second best.

 

[Dom_Margera]

Definitely Sean Connery!

who the heck are Barry Nelson and David Niven ?

 

[Hottie Hollie]

Sean Connery by far

 

[Jagger69]

Connery by a mile. Pierce Brosnan, Roger Moore & Daniel Craig in a dead heat for second-best.

who the heck are Barry Nelson and David Niven ?

They're both actors!!! I'll give you Nelson but surely everyone has heard of David Niven?!?

Barry Nelson played 'Jimmy' Bond as a bloomin' yank! In a one off tv version of Casino Royale. The only good thing about it was Peter Lorre as Le Chiffre.
David Niven played retired Sir James Bond in the messy but fun version of Casino Royale in the late 60s, with Woody Allen as his nephew!

who the heck are Barry Nelson and David Niven ?

Barry Nelson was the first person to play Bond. He's an American and it was a made-for-tv adaption of Casino Royale.

David Niven is a distinguished English actor who played Bond in the first film version of Casino Royale. It was done as a spoof of Bond films and isn't considered part of the Bond canon.

Barry Nelson played 'Jimmy' Bond as a bloomin' yank!

That's just wrong!

 

[Eric Lindros]

Sean Connery for sure.

 

[Supafly]

If you want an answer according to the old-school Bond theme - Connery.

But if we consider Bond as a real agent that goes tough on his job, and can handle people real hard, that's Daniel Craig - no comparison to him!

 

[FreeThugz]

Roger Moore

 

[004]

Roger Moore was Bond as i grew up so he gets my vote.

 

[J. Friday]

That's just wrong!

Almost as wrong as having an Irishman play Bond!

 

[minidog]

yip i'll vote Brosnan,just for his looks

 

[mrtrebus]

Almost as wrong as having an Irishman play Bond!

Or a scotchman!
(yes before all you purists say it I know he had a scotch ****** & a swiss ****** but its still wrong!!)

 

[ThatRedWing]

Connery......Sean Connery.
