I want my Bond to have far fetched gadgets
I want to suspend disbelief. I want undersea lairs and evil geniuses bent on world domination. I want never ending clips in the guns and cars that explode when you shoot them. I want barley disguised double entendre, women that are sexy but can kick ass. I want everything that was Bond and nothing of what Bond has become.

But then Timothy Dalton was a bit crap wasn't he? Sean Connery FTW!

I thought Timothy Dalton was great

well, in the Living Daylights anyway
Licence to Kill is a bit shit.

Dalton was the worst by a country mile.
He starts crying and flounces out of his job at the start of one of them.

BEN-DERRRRRR...

The only thing I disagree with most people is my order of best Bonds
as I put Lazenby above Moore

Connery
Brosnan
Lazenby
Moore
Craig
Dalton

I always found Moore a little old and more silly than smooth.

Brosnan is a smarmy bastard
Goldeneye is a good bond film, but best bond?

*shakes head*

having read the books, Daniel Craig and Dalton are the most like the written character

Goldeneye is one of the best Bond films
and expertly blends the book Bond and the film Bond we all love.

^ agreed
Goldeneye was very good.

A rough round the edges Bond

Parfait.

Judi Dench as M

What happened to Q?

Since when?

Q
Desmond Llewellyn was killed in a road accident I believe and has thus been partially replaced by John Cleese.

EDIT: 85 when he died, per Wiki en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desmond_Llewellyn
(, Wed 2 Dec 2009, 10:25, Reply)
he was also really fucking old

Yes the actor
I'm talking about the character as played by Cleese.

he was called R I think

R for rubbish.

No
he was promoted to Q in Die Another Day

Because of my age
I'm a Roger Moore man at heart. I KNOW they're not as good films as the Connery ones but Live and Let Die is my all time favourite and, controversially, View to a Kill - Christopher Walken is the IDEAL Bond villain.

OHMSS is third on my list, even though Telly Savalas isn't particularly scary, esp when compared with Charles Gray or Donald Pleasance...
(, Wed 2 Dec 2009, 10:00, Reply)
Though he wasn't my favourite bond
The Moore films are amongst my favourites.

Live and Let die is probably my favourite Bond film though I though Goldeneye was a great comeback after the shite that was Daltonbond

Jane Seymour in Live and Let Die
is almost incomprehensibly gorgeous.
(, Wed 2 Dec 2009, 10:07, Reply)
God she gives me the horn.
Its not just the looks, just everything about her screamed "fuck me anyway you want, treat me like a whore and I won't complain"

this is the truth

and she could tell you next week's lottery numbers
AND had a lovely speaking voice.

The ideal woman.

Err what?
Have you not seen The Man with the Golden Gun? Britt Ekland?
(, Wed 2 Dec 2009, 10:50, Reply)
Jane Seymour beats Britt Ekland
hands down

my pants
(, Wed 2 Dec 2009, 10:51, Reply)
Correct
although she does almost give Seymour a run for her money in the Wicker Man. The gyppo girl-fight scene in From Russia with Love always did something funny to me, too.

I also have a massive thing for those 60s French & Italian women with heavy eye makeup like wot you get in the Pink Panther films.

Mmmmmmmm.......

pfft
I see your Jane Seymour and raise you Diana Rigg. But not Grace Jones, because she looks like a man.

Besides, Britt Ekland was married to Peter Sellers whereas Jane Seymour was just married to err... Henry VIII

Roger Moore
The earlier Moore films are pretty good, but he shat on his legacy by sticking around for far, far too long.

I can't watch Goldfinger
without picturing Goldfinger singing "you're my little coochy-coo" from Chitty Chitty Bang-Bang.
(, Wed 2 Dec 2009, 10:17, Reply)
Gert Frobe?
I believe he couldn't speak English - in Goldfinger he mimes and has a voiceover. He's also in Those Magnificent Men in their Flying Machines, which I loved as a boy but suspect may actually be shite.

^ This is true
As did Ursula Andress.

Max Zorin was brilliant
It's just a shame that Bond had his bus pass by the time they met.
