Favourite James Bond?

[Rocky Balboa]

Who is you favourite James Bond?

For me it's either between Sean Connery or Pierce Brosnan, but id have to go with the original and the best, Sean Connery! Yesh!

[Autonotiv]

has to be pierce or dan or sean.

I think daniel craig is almost as good as connery, has just the right mix of humour,violence, and scuttling of fair maidens. is the first bond since connery to match ian flemings description of his ideal bond, a navvy in a suit!

[cornishgirl]

On acting alone it has to be Dalton. Although Connery has charisma but his silly accent spoils it for me.

Craig just looks too much like an ape to be a credible Bond.

[Eric Mc]

He's left two Bonds(or possibly three, if you include Radio versions) off the list. Anyone care to guess who they might be?

And Bob Holness

And Woody Allen

[fathomfive]

Connery or Craig for me.

[deevlash]

barry nelson played jimmy bond an american version
that bloke from going for gold, henry kelly played him on the radio I think, theres another one too iirc

[grumbledoak]

Gotta love Moore's delivery; Connery was the better action-hero but he just couldn't be funny. Brosnan was the best of the recent ones; Dalton always looked constipated, and Craig looks too much like a thug to carry off 'sauve'.

All views my own, 'natch.

Oh there was an american guy o the radio, was the first ever bond, his character called jimmy bond, but cant remember his name dammit!

[Penny-lope]

Poor old George...0%

[Eric Mc]

David Niven in the original 1967 "Casino Royale"
Woody Allen who plays his nephew "Jimmy Bond" in the same film

and

Bob Holness (Gimme a "B" Bob from "Blockbusters") who played Bond in a radio version of "Moonraker".

Yes i agree about craig, but as i have said, ian flemings idea for bond was a navvy in a suit, so for me, craig is just about spot on! Sean is still better though!

[Burgmeister]

Its got to be Moore, a true gent with manners!

You should read the original Fleming books. He's actually the closest; Bond was a chauvanistic, womanising bd.

[Rob P]

Daniel Craig gets my vote.......but my favourite Bond film was Goldeneye

Better as the action man, but his films always feel punctuated with these:


I can see a purist liking Craig but, though I've read most of the books, to me 'Bond' is the movies, sillyness and all. So I voted Moore.
