Favorite Bond actor?

[QUOTE="sammyjenkis898"][QUOTE="chessmaster1989"]

That said, Goldeneye beat the crap out of the mediocre and bad Bond movies that Craig starred in >_>.

Not even close >_>.

The best two are by far Goldfinger and The Man with the Golden Gun.

Casino Royale and QoS feel like they took Jason Bourne and put him in an alternate universe where he was named James Bond and remembered his identity >_>.

Maybe that's more like the books. That said, I think there's a bit of a precedent for the James Bond character after 20 movies...

But, whatever, I'd love to stay and argue, but I have to go to my Analysis class (math ftw! :P).

You just had to end it with that..

:x

For me it's... Daniel Craig, followed by Connery with Brosnan coming in last after all the other guys who played Bond.

I like Daniel Craig the most because he's more of a darker, modern kind of Bond. He improvises more than relying on out-of-this-world gadgets. Overall just a more believable spy.

Sean Connery, Moore, Craig. My favorite was Sean Connery because he was a more sarcastic one liner Bond which kind of showed he had a funny and serious side. Also Timothy Dalton wasn't bad, most people seem to forget him.

Oh come on The Man with the Golden Gun was awful, how can you say that Daniel Craig is not James Bond when your defending a movie where bond fights ninjas and defeats a sumo wresler by giving him a massive wedgie

That being said, Christopher Lee was amazing in that movie and was easily one of the best bond villians of all time.

Exactly, it was unintentionally hilarious.

Sean Connery by far.

[QUOTE="chessmaster1989"]Casino Royale suffers from the lack of a cool villain, the lack of a cool evil plan, a Bond lacking any suave, 30+ minutes of Texas Hold 'Em, a lack of any cool gadgets, a lack of any corny one-liners, a lack of the James Bond character, etc. I mean, come on. It decided to have the villain try to make money to fund terrorists by... guess what?... playing ******* poker. Yeah, that's cool all right, especially when you compare it to invading Fort Knox to detonate a bomb to make all the gold radioactive. :roll:Lansdowne5

There was an old Casino Royale with Sean Connery? I wasn't aware of that...

Sean Connery.

Yeah I noticed that too, there's really not a memorable nemesis, which is probably why I liked Craig's movies the most.

w00t! Sorry fot he double post but this is my first hot topic! It's exciting to say the least.

Connery is almost tied with Craig for me lol.

That's what I think about Brosnan. He's a horrible Bond.

Daniel Craig`s prerformance in Casino Royale was mind-blowing. Quantum of Solace was poorly written, poory directed and was just plain Bourne.

Timothy Dalton.

Sean Connery is James Bond, all others are wannabes.

Oddjob

or...Brosnan even. o_0

But thats whats so great about it, it cut all the stupid gimicks in favor of a down to earth and emotional plot.

Thank god the got rid of the one-liners remeber die another day?

Bond: I miss your sparkling personality

Zao: (hits him) "Hows that for a punch line?"

Or my personal fave

Zao: "Who sent you?"

Jinx: "Yo Mamma"

Casino royal was the first James Bond book ever and the movie (particularly the card game) is very closly adaptated. Daniel Craig plays bond the way he was meant to be played, a flawed man, not a superhero fighting a giant snake or flying around in space shooting lazer beams, the bond your talking about is a twisted self pardody.

You just hit the nail on the head.

Timothy Dalton.

Cactus_Matt

I agree, by far. He's realistic, most like the novels, true and memorable.

Timothy Dalton, I dont get why everyone hates him. He was the most accurate bond, he was what bond what meant to be. Dalton actually studied the books and became the character. He is what Daniel Craig is now, which is ironic considering that Dalton was hated for being different and more brutal and cold, yet Daniel Craig is praised for it. Sean Connery is awesome too though, he and Dalton are tied.

Sean Connery. :P.. i remember watching his movies with dad.

For me, it's a tie between Daniel Craig and Timothy Dalton. Both are fantastic.

I dunno. Pierce Brosnan had all the attributes of the other Bonds. Connery was good too.
