I like Moore and Craig, cannot stand Connery. Have a friend, an Old punk who use to work as a technician at one of the Studios, said Roger Moore was really down to earth and a very funny guy. Even Craig has retained some of that humour, but nobody can raise an eyebrow like Moore.Quote:

Moore is a nice guy but the comedy version of James is not good. Bond was stoic and heavy drinker which was played well by Sean and Craig.
Bonds previous to Craig would not let themselves get poisoned, beaten up, or fallen for a woman who double-crosses him. Craig likes to run around and show his physique... but the other Bonds were more suave and debonair.
The new James Bond with Craig are quite stunning. I can watch them for the grandiose filming. Craig is a good actor. I didn't know anyone in England didn't like Bond, I guess that's racist of me. How could anyone not like Connery. When he had his shirt unbuttoned it looked like he had spiders all over his chest.
The new Bond movie "No Time To Die" has been postponed due to the Coronavirus. They think the title is insensitive Just change the title to something less sensitive like "Quarantine Of Solace"...."A Flu to a Kill"... Suggestions welcome
Just come to this thread. Can hardly call them rubbish.
I grew up with Roger Moore at the cinema playing Bond so he's my favourite. Loved the litlle quips and the raised eyebrow. Great films. At the same time I loved the Connery ones that were shown on TV (usually xmas day at 3.10pm after the queens speech) and thought he was cool aswell. Always entertaining films you can't deny that.
But then Dalton - no thanks.
And I have never seen a Brosnan Bond movie either as can't stand him.
However Craig came to the role and made him cool again with an edge to him - though I've still to figure out what the hell Quantum of Solace was all about. Skyfall is up there as one of the best for me.
Tough act to follow is Daniel Craig for whoever it may be. Hopefully not Tom Hiddlestone.

Whoever the successor is, I hope they go back to making him smooth and debonair.
I'm afraid they might slowly devolve into the "more brawn than brains" type, in which case you'll eventually end up with Vin Diesel.

As long as they do not go down the road of Roger Moore, comedy Bond type, I will be happy. Otherwise they may as well keep Johnny English.Quote:
