Moore was a great Saint, and a terrible Bond who took the role to clowning levels. Dalton is my second best Bond.

Wow, thats interesting....never met one person who liked Dalton as Bond. I gew up with Roger Moore Bonds, most are pretty corny now, but always liked For Your Eyes Only and Spy Who Loved Me.

I liked Dalton as well. I always thought he got a bum rap.

This. I didn't totally hate QoS, but it was a huge letdown after Casino Royale. Then again, CR is one of my favorite movies... And Daniel Craig is ****ing awesome.

Haha I'm pretty psyched about that, too. Skyfall + The Hobbit is going to make 2012 kick ass for movies.

Sounds like they found a good bad guy. Not sure if QoS even had a villain.

Sure they did, it was the one wimpy guy in a suit telling the dictator of another country to kill people for water.... Or something like that...

Here's where I agree with you. Those are the only two Roger Moore 007 flicks that I like and have the DVDs of. The reason they were better was that he played the character in a more serious manner. Not Craig serious, but Connery serious.

And OBTW, Dalton got a raw deal when EOn switched to Brosnan. He was a very good Bond.

While I agree that Moore brought a little too much cheese, I don't know for sure if that was him, or the director wanting that. I'm going to blame it on the director since he also decided it would be a good idea to tie in the fat police officer annoying guy into one movie, and then coincidentally have him on vacation in Japan in another movie. (The scene where bond is escaping on the boat with the school of ninjas chasing him).

It's the same thing with Brosnan. He wasn't a bad BOND... but the director/writer had him doing way too much unrealistic stuff with too many stupid one liners. The Bronson movies writing was terrible, except for Goldeneye which was mostly just guilty of cheesy one liners.

The difference between Moore and Brosnan's situations is theat I kept reading their interviews when Moore admitted that the producers gave him some free reign over his portrayal of Bond while Brosnan's interviews revealed he was campaigning for an edgier Bond. Moore insists that Bond is a comic book character and must be played somewhat comical.
