Personally, Connery isn't even the second best Bond. But seriously, just because your favorite Bond looks that way doesn't mean every Bond has to. Get the **** over it.

I was a Craig resister and I just watched Skyfall, a great film in all aspects of Bond films. I'm a fan again now.

Shut. The. ****. Up. Seriously, that is the most ridiculous thing I have ever seen/heard that had anything to do with any James Bond movie ever made at any time. Just...no.

But Craig has been lights out phenomenal as Bond. QOS was a disappointment, but with the writers strike going on before and during filming, it was destined to be a cluster from the get go. The fact that QOS turned out to be an okay movie is about the best one could hope for. Craig's Bond has been rebooted from the ground up, and I look forward to the next chapter. Hopefully it won't take four years to get done.

Brosnan fought for better scripts and more edge to the character but instead they just fired him. The idea of a reboot has a lot of problems. Usually a reboot happens a few years after a series has run it's course. It's usually done by another outfit and not with the signatures of the first. This one was done only to tap into the box office popularity and success of a short blond spy named Bourne. Instead of the Bond franchise being a trail blazer, it became an imitator. To make it all more stupid they not only kept the signature music and the intros, but also kept the same M who had already bossed around the old Bond. The new short, blonde, pre-00 Bond is introduced to the old M. What a crock of shit! I think EON counted on the new fans having a short attention span,.... and judging by some posts here, maybe they were right. |

Roger Moore was perfect for what they asked him to do. It was a different era, the movies were corny and over the top. Badly dated now, but he was fine for the time.

I think Pierce Brosnan best personifies the Bond suave. He had the look, the voice, and he was debonair. He's exactly what I'd expect James Bond to be like in real life, but his movies blew chunks.
Daniel Craig is nothing like what I would expect from James Bond. He's rough, rugged, and- I don't even know what else, but suave wouldn't be the first thing that came to mind. With that said, he acts well, is great in the action scenes, and his movies are fantastic. I'd probably make my list with Craig as #1 with the slight nod over Connery at #2. **** everyone else. |
