Stormtron Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 I might make an argument for Craig after a few more films, but it's gotta be Connery. I'm surprised that Moore even got four votes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
workingcinderellaman Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 QUOTE (Mandalorian Hunter @ Aug 26 2008, 02:06 PM) Live And Let Die was actually pretty serious to me. One of my favorites. And I think Moore does a great job in that one. It also has the funniest character in the whole franchise; Sheriff J.W. Pepper. I love that guy. He comes back in 'The Man with the Golden Gun'.

ArrowSnake Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 Sean Connery will always be the best, but Daniel Craig is also pretty damn good! Dr. No and Casino Royale are the best Bond films imo. Roger Moore was a little too old and campy. George Lazenby was a joke! Timothy Dalton was ok, I like him better than Brosnan. I don't like the Brosnan movies, they're just no good. I hope they keep making movies like Casino Royale, that one kicked ass! I've been watching Bond movies since I was a little kid, and I still enjoy them.

ReRushed Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 QUOTE So, the franchize was serious until "You Only Live Twice" huh? Was this serious? No. Not at all. Read my earlier posts, James Bond is not to be taken seriously. The Bond films started to become a self-parody starting with You Only Live Twice. QUOTE QUOTE ironic part, the next movie On Her Majesty's Secret Service was not a parody, at all. That is why that movie sucked and did bad On Her Majesty's Secret Service is a very good movie. In retrospect, it's one of the best in the entire series. Simply put, the Bond films didn't start off as spoofs or parody. They weren't serious movies by any means, they were entertainment. The absurb part of that entertainment was later spoofed and became parody. That's all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sean is still head and shoulders above the rest.....but Casino Royale was the best i have seen for some time. Look forward to seeing the next in line...

ouchithurts Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 Sorry, but Tom Hanks will be the best James Bond when he replaces Daniel Craig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Del_Duio Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 I picked Daniel Craig because he was so awesome in Casino Royale and was actually pretty believable as Bond. Roger Moore was the guy I knew best as James Bond growing up though, so he'd likely get my 2nd place vote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Del_Duio Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 I think the best line in the whole franchise comes from Moonraker though, at the end. "What's James doing?" "He's attempting re-entry." Hahaha, or something like that. It was funny as hell though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

troutman Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 I enjoy Connery and Moore the best. A slight edge to Moore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
