Spoderman Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 I've been getting into the 007 series since the release of Skyfall. My personal favourite was Connery. All his performances were great, especially in Goldfinger and From Russia With Love. Who do you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mau5trap Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Too young/not born to appreciate the real OG 007's. By default, I gotta say Pierce Brosnon. I watched the movie goldeneye, and played the game religiously growing up on the N64. The level "controls" on 00 agent.. oh sweet goodness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D-Money Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 The beginning and ending sequences of Casino Royale are probably the best two scenes in the history of James Bond. But I haven't been impressed with the rest of Craig's Bond. It's gotta be Connery. Although, I really, really enjoyed Dalton's The Living Daylights.

GLASSJAW Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Tough call, but I'm not afraid to admit that I love the Roger Moore era. I recognize that Connery was probably the best actor for the role, but I think the Moore-era films are more enjoyable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordCanuck Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Connery, Craig tie. there so different and i like them both, Casino is my favorite followed by Goldfinger. N64 Goldeneye is the bomb! greatest FPS ever. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Special Ed Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 The first person that pops into my mind when someone mentions 007 is roger Moore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McBackup Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Craig, but thats probably because I prefer the more serious tone of his movies. Nothing particularly wrong with sharks with freakin' lazerbeams attached to their freaking heads, but I do prefer the ones that take themselves somewhat seriously.

Lancaster Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 After seeing most of the movies, I do think Timothy Dalton is a bit under-rated. Not quite as gritty as Daniel Craig, not quite as Mr. Perfect like Pierce Brosnan, not too campy like Roger Moore, or even as suave like Sean Connery.... but overall easier to relate to. Motivated by revenge, doing whatever it takes.... perhaps the most "realistic". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n00bxQb Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 They're all good, but I'm going w/ Brosnan because I liked the Bonds from the 90s best and Goldeneye for N64 was a staple of my childhood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ossi Vaananen Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 I voted Roger Moore, though Connery was a close second. Pierce Brosnan is where acting goes to die. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sedated Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Goldeneye was probably my favourite and most memorable. It has to deserve some credit. Liked the non-poker related parts of Casino Royale. Connery was a bad ass though. Bronsan was just too.. ridiculous. The movies got super cheesey after and he was almost the sole reason. That being said, Daniel Craig makes it cool because he's so distant. More like a mercenary. Guess people that watched the originals have a point where he's 'too perfect seeming', but I'm pretty sure back in the day Sean Connery was probably the same.

goalie13 Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 I started watching Bond during the Moore era, but I way prefer Craig. I think Dalton gets overlooked because he was only in a couple of films, but he would be my runner-up. I like the more serious portrayal of Bond, rather than the goofy version that Moore and Brosnan became. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
