Me too!

Also, I know some people like the Dalton films but to me they have the feel of low budget action films forever stuck in an '80's time warp.

i have nothing to say.

Die Another Day and Casino Royale are the two Bond movies I hate. Both for completely different reasons.

When I saw Die Another Day, I couldn't believe how bad it was. And didn't consider it a Bond film.

To me, the Bond films exist from the Connery era up to Tomorrow Never Dies.

My most hated are Die Another Day, Moonraker (I even thought it was utter stupidity when I saw it as a kid at the cinema) and Octopussy/For Your Eyes Only. Moore was a crap Bond but you can't get any worse than an ageing crap Bond combined with sheer blandness.

Although I'm Scottish and it might be expected that Connery would be my fave, my favourite Bond is Roger Moore.

They were my favourites as a kid, so it's probably passed on as nostalgia.

Although the Connery / Moore era is a bit slow paced and not quite punchy enough by todays standards.


I also don't mind the idea of a more serious Bond, I like Licence To Kill.

Tbh i've only ever seen a select few JB outings from start to finish but have been warming more to the world-saving exploits of 007 over the years so i intend to pay the franchise proper attention sooner or later.

I own a variety of JB DVD purchases so i've got plenty to keep me occupied when the time comes.

I think Dalton is the best Bond, with his two films being the two best films in the cannon (currently, I have TLD as my #1), followed by Connery's first two, TND and then YOLT. MR, AVTAK and Craigs first two are my least favourites. As for the actors themselves:


1. Dalton
2. Connery
3. Moore
4. Brosnan
5. Lazenby
6. Craig

I like Moonraker and much prefer it to the dreadful Octopussy and A View To a Kill. The two Dalton Bonds are really excellent and the action in both films are some of the best in the entire canon. Die Another Day I agree is rubbish. The plot makes no sense and what 007 is after I don't know.

Ive ordered the Bond 50 Blu ray set

I actually liked Lazenby. OHMSS is also one of the best Bond films imo. A shame he only did the one film. That was a really stupid decision.
