BEST - Roger Moore, closely followed by Sean Connery

WORST - George Lazenby tongue (looked kind of oafish, I ended up pitying him in the movie)

Thanks.

Lazenby. Disgraceful Bond, a stain on the series. Who is Ken Wabanabe?
Re: Who's The Best James Bond And Who's The Worst? by MadMax1(f): 3:30pm On Sep 02, 2008
Watanabe.
Oh, you know. Just your average, friendly-neighbourhood, run-of-the-mill god.

Re: Who's The Best James Bond And Who's The Worst? by Okijajuju1(m): 3:42pm On Sep 02, 2008
I cant really decide on the best but the worst is definitely this new dude.

Hes so bad that I didnt even bother knowing his name
Re: Who's The Best James Bond And Who's The Worst? by lafile(m): 3:47pm On Sep 02, 2008
The best James Bond ever depends on your view of who 007 is supposed to be. If you want the original Bond as created by Ian Flemming brute violent rough area boy type, then surely only daniel craig qualifies. However, if you love the Bond we've all come to know and love, the charismatic, classy guy with lots of libido and panache. The one who feels at home in high society. the cosmopolitan guy at home in bruseels and budapest, then surely its a fight between sean connery and pierce brosnan. sean nicks it, but only just. Roger more was just too ordinary. Tim dalton was definitely the worse. George lazenby doesnt count cos he's bond wasn't done by the same guys that did the others.

All in all this is the order.
1. Sean Connery
2. Pierce Brosnan
3. daniel Craig
4. Roger Moore
5. Timothy Dalton
6. Oh well, George watshisname?

lol smiley smiley

BTW, the whole parachute is bound to be red in colour after the second use, xcept the user was an angel.
Re: Who's The Best James Bond And Who's The Worst? by iice(f): 2:31am On Sep 06, 2008
erhhhh are you landing in red soil?
Re: Who's The Best James Bond And Who's The Worst? by darqly(m): 8:14pm On Sep 06, 2008
For ME-
Roger Moore
Sean Connery
George Lazenby

Yes, Good ol George is just being dissed cos he didn't live up to expectation after the release of the movie and was axed. OHMSS is one of my fav Bond movies of all times, lovely music score from John Barry and Louis Armstrong to boot!

Timothy Dalton SUCKS!!
Re: Who's The Best James Bond And Who's The Worst? by grandjedi(m): 10:34am On Sep 08, 2008
iice:

Nah. The way I see it, if the parachute was used once before and it didn't open, then the user must have crash-landed. And not a bit injured too, jugding by the stain (blood?). Hence, use of the same parachute is risking it not opening a second time and thus multiply injuring the user. Of course with more (blood) stains or soaking as the case may be. Catch my drift?
Or did I . . .jump . . to a conclusion? smiley smiley
Re: Who's The Best James Bond And Who's The Worst? by iice(f): 3:10am On Sep 09, 2008
Aha! no you didn't jump smiley
it's my fault my mind went somewhere else grin

BTW aren't the names of the movies/books just awesome!? grin
Solstices, The world is not enough, from russia with love, the spy who loved me etc
Re: Who's The Best James Bond And Who's The Worst? by grandjedi(m): 3:53pm On Sep 09, 2008
The Spy who Loved Me ( I really liked this movie then ), Live & Let Die ( liked the soundtrack- by this Nigerian lady in England if I remember correctly ), For your eyes only, Living Daylight etc.
I read only 1 of the books (Diamonds r 4ever), somehow the movies were more vivid so I stuck to them.

Pray, tell where did ur mind go? A penny (sorry, gold bar - from GoldFinger) for your thots. . .

Which also brings me to the Bond villains like Scalamanga, Kananga, GoldFinger etc. Remarkable names, don't you think?

Am with you there on the books thing. I love the movies.
For your eyes only - the one with the figure skater? Love the soundtrack, not so much the movie. Weird pairing.
Love the soundtrack too of Live & let die.

Re: Who's The Best James Bond And Who's The Worst? by grandjedi(m): 1:19pm On Sep 10, 2008
Solstices  grin grin. It's not yet Sept. 20 or is it 24?

Haven't seen Quantum of Solace yet. How was Daniel Craig in it compared with his Bond debut?

And then, never underrate your thoughts, my dear except the very baaad ones lipsrsealed. Even Einstein said imagination is better than knowledge.

Whenever I have a bit of time I'll review my Bond movies. I'm forgetting some of those scenes.
Re: Who's The Best James Bond And Who's The Worst? by iice(f): 4:45pm On Sep 10, 2008
Dunno when it's coming out. Am sort of out of the loop these days.
So i havent seen it, but i'll definitely see it when it shows.

hahhh i don't underrate them, just too stressful trying to simplify them sometimes undecided
But thanks for the tip. Hey i like bad thoughts cheesy, well bad is subject to different interpretations tongue

You know i will never forget that russian lady with a small knife attached to her shoe grin
Same goes for the man with the iron teeth grin

Yeah!!! grin She was a former SMERSH/ KGB operative who defected to SPECTRE (another unforgettable name) and in that movie they were trying to get the Russian agent/girl to trap JB. Don't remember her name now, but the girl was Tanya.
Men, that Russian/SPECTRE woman packed a killer kick in those venom shoes.
And the man with iron teeth- how could I have forgotten my fav Bond villain - JAWS. grin grin grin

BTW, the figure skater in For your eyes only - her name is Bibi Dahl (read Baby doll). She was supposedly innocent in the ways of the world but in reality next to a nympho  grin cheesy grin.
James Bond isn't one to look a gift horse in the mouth but even he had to do a Joseph to avoid being called a paedophile. wink
Re: Who's The Best James Bond And Who's The Worst? by Vieira(m): 9:30pm On Sep 14, 2008
My Order of Bonds:

Daniel Craig
Roger Moore
Pierce Brosnan
George Lazenby
Timothy Dalton
Sean Connery
David Niven
Re: Who's The Best James Bond And Who's The Worst? by MadMax1(f): 6:06pm On Sep 15, 2008
Who the blue blazes is David Niven? Don't tell me there's a Bond called Niven. Neva heard of him.
Re: Who's The Best James Bond And Who's The Worst? by Vieira(m): 12:24am On Sep 16, 2008
He did the first Casino Royale

It was more Comedy than anything else. Not good at all.

Yeah spectre, its so funny coz she's so small but how she kicks na wa cheesy

The figure skater bahhhhhhhh the whole chemistry thing was off. Ahhh am not sure but i think it's Tara Lipinski, she was how old in that movie sef, urgh just weird, unlike the combination of Colin Farrell and the young lady in The New World.

Hey, I saw that one last year. Really old. Was that a real Bond movie? I thought it was some sort of absurd spoof of the series.
Re: Who's The Best James Bond And Who's The Worst? by kadman(m): 9:56pm On Sep 16, 2008
Best Bond - Sean Connery
Worst Bond - Daniel Craig : Maybe because I knew when they were looking for a new Bond,when they casted him and all,but I just don't identify with him.He didn't come off special at all. I won't be seeing Quantum Of Solace later this year.
Do you know Clive Owen was almost cast instead of Craig.That would have been so much better.
Re: Who's The Best James Bond And Who's The Worst? by A40(m): 2:24am On Sep 17, 2008
I wouldnt give it to Daniel Craig yet till i see Quantum of the Solstice

My best is between Pierce Brosnan,and Sean Connery i also liked Timothy Dalton(Living Daylights i love that film)
Re: Who's The Best James Bond And Who's The Worst? by shotster50(m): 6:05am On Sep 17, 2008
Personally I think Daniel Craig hit the spot as the perfect James Bond. He is the 'ghettofied' version - gritty and hardcore.

omg, you are soooooo right. He's terribly sexy that way. Delicious
Re: Who's The Best James Bond And Who's The Worst? by seanpees(m): 5:15pm On Sep 17, 2008
Sean Connery, is the best closely followed by Roger Moore. Daniel Craig as Bond is a radical departure in character. For those who have read the Bond' novels Craig is a bad portrayal of the Bond Character. he simply doesnt fit the bill. He is not a bad actor though, but the whole idea of changig the Bond Character is not ideal.
Re: Who's The Best James Bond And Who's The Worst? by Arnold1(m): 10:42pm On Sep 17, 2008
Roger Moore was the man abeg. The real proper 007
