RIP

Dang my favorite 007

He was damn good wasnt he.

The 007 I grew up with as a little kid. Loved "Live and Let Die", remember watching it every time it was the movie of the week back in the 70s.

He was very good as 007. Certainly among the best to play the role. But nobody beats Sean Connery.

RIP

I actually watched a little bit of Man with the Golden Gun this weekend. It has not aged well.

RIP

This isn't a debate. I like Sir Roger Moore as Bond James Bond better than Sean Connery and love the battles with Jaws. Jaws is my favorite Bond villain.

I guess that you also voted for Chris Farley as greatest SNL performer too? Some of you guys just don't know what talent looks like. You were right when you said it's not even debatable. Then you named the wrong guy. Sean Connery is the Tom Brady of Bonds. Roger Moore is Drew Brees. Also very good, but he's no Tom Brady.

My first James Bond movie I ever saw was in the movie theater; Man With the Golden Gun.

I loved Roger Moore as a kid although his later Bond movies got a little goofy.

R.I.P.

Who the **** cares if I like Roger Moore better as James Bond? Why does it matter? It doesn't. I said Roger Moore is my favorite Bond doesn't mean anything about how good he is.

Derrick Thomas is my all time favorite football player does that mean I think he was better than Lawrence Taylor? It doesn't matter because Derrick Thomas is my favorite. So why are you trying to dismantle my simple non complex statement out of respect to the man who just died?

Damn. RIP. I really enjoyed his Bond movies. For Yours Eyes Only especially. That space one was over-the-top stupid, but that's the writers' fault, not his.

Very good actor, alot of fun memories. That sucks. RIP.

Probably my favorite Bond movie song ever. Goldfinger, for some reason, is close behind though I can't honestly tell you why.

I loved Moonraker I just watched it again like last year and it was dope. Again Jaws battles are epic. Bond actually talks some since into Jaws at the end of Moonraker to get him on his side. So he was clever witted to do so.

I agree on the bit cheesy but still enjoyable movie.

Mine was Live and Let Die.

Moore was and will always be my favorite Bond. He's the "Bond, James Bond" I grew up with.

RIP

RIP Heck of an actor.

I think this is almost always the answer to "Who Was the Best Bond?"

The one who was playing Bond when you were between, whatever, 10 and 17 years old or whatever.

I recognize Connery as an elite actor and really enjoy all his movies, but Moore is always Bond to me, because I saw him do it first and most often, before I saw the Connery movies.

I guess Brosnan would've been 'my' Bond and I see him as the second worst Bond of the lot.

I suppose it would be best not to say who I view as the worst...

To each their own.

I'm shaken.

I have seen every Bond film and I would place Casino Royale, Goldfinger, and Dr. No at the top.

Second tier: From Russia, Spy Who Loved Me, Goldeneye, Your Eyes Only

(Many mediocre ones)

Worst: Golden Gun, Moonraker, Tomorrow Never Dies

Also my favorite Bond. Octopussy was my favorite movie as a kid.

His 007 movies stink but are classic comedy. It was funny as hell when he popped up in Cannon Ball Run.

Sorry to see him go.

A tragic loss.

I bet the doctors told him every element of their evil plan for world domination before pulling the plug.

If they had he would have spoiled their evil plans in the utmost Bond fashion way before he died.

RIP second best Bond!

How in the heck was he 89 I guess time does fly. How old is Sean now?

Probably. Or maybe this was how he gets written out.

I thought it was really cool that at the very end he managed to shoot that elephant and make it fall on one of the villains who was about to trigger a mass extinction.

86. He'll be 87 in August. I would have assumed that Moore was younger.

Moore was my "first" Bond so he kind of became my favorite
loved Jaws
Seeing some of those movies when I got older though I can see why some didn't care for him as much
especially compared to the Connery movies, Bond became much more jokey
they took the humor and stunts of Connery and turned it way up into constant jokes and puns and a lot of it was pretty cornball

RIP sir.

For the record, i'm with KC Tat, Moore was my favorite as well.

Moonraker? I made the mistake of watching that again a couple years ago, it was godawful. Way, way worse than I had remembered it to be.

I think I was 12 or 13 when I saw it last, and I thought it rocked. Is it possible that maybe my tastes weren't well refined at that age?

Moore is my favorite, mainly due to nostalgia watching Bond films as a kid on HBO during the summer etc.

I like Connery, and the early ones but they're really cheesy and corny (they all are...but the early ones especially so), but I still love them. Even Thunderball, and it's seemingly 3 hour underwater scene.

Worst....Dalton
wasn't a huge fan of Brosnan at all, but he was tolerable and nowhere near as bad as Dalton.

I really like Craig too.

RIP.


Great as Bond... it was the writing that made some of those films not good.

Yes, extremely possible. If you have good memories of that movie do not bother watching it again because they will be ruined.

Goodbye, Mr Bond.

Gonna have to watch a View to a Kill tonight.

Fixed. Properly-like.

You're welcome.

Not my favorite Bond, but certainly better than the latest clown with no style or charisma.

RIP.

RIP Roger Moore

I'm older than most here so I grew up with Sean Connery as my James Bond.

RiP. Loved his Bonds growing up

Spy Who Loved Me and For Your Eyes only are still in my top Bond movies list

He was a great Bond, and I think he was also in a TV series "The Saint"? Maybe I'm mistaken, wouldn't be the first.

loved live and let die, also enjoyed man with thegolden gun, notmy favorite bond, but was the one I grew up with

Yes, same here. KC Tattoo can say what he likes but......I remember thinking it was awesome when I was, whatever, 10, but I saw it (or rather half of it) ten or so years ago and was like "ouch, god-awful...doesnt' exactly stand up well."

Meanwhile, great, GREAT story.

Lol. Badass.

Such a boss.

He was an excellent actor with a kind of style, class and elegance that rarely exists in today's cinema.

Much like Pierce Brosnan, he was a victim of the producers and screenwriters but when given an excellent script like "For Your Eyes Only", he was absolutely phenomenal.

If you haven't seen it, check out "Ffolkes" some day. He's amazing in that film.

I LOVE that movie. Saw it in theaters when it came out. Really fun film, vastly underrated.
