General thoughts and ranking? Sure!
*Ian Fleming is an incredible writer; everyone should read his original Bond books. The BBC radio adaptations are excellent as well. (Not directly relevant, but I just had to mention it.)
*Sean Connery is by far the best Bond, so much so that I’ve long considered him the only “actual Bond” and all the rest fine, but not really Bond.
*Unfortunately, as I love his performance in The Saint, I think Roger Moore is the worst Bond. Too smarmy, too pretty-boy-esque, too many winks at the camera. Some of his movies are decent, however.
*Daniel Craig is excellent in Casino Royale, by far the best of his films. Unfortunately, I’m not a great fan of his other three.
- Connery is indeed great and pretty much gave us the difinitive Bond performences in From Russia with Love and Goldfinger. However my personal favorite is Pierce Brosnan.
- Although I really didnt see a Bond film with Roger untill 2008 he was the Bond heard the most about because he the favorite Bond of my parents. Overall I do really like him as Bond but like I said I prefer Connery and Brosnan.
- Caisino Royale was the first Bond movie I seen and its the one who got me into the series but however Craig himself is my least favorite of the six Bonds. He just reminds me too much of a generic modern day action hero rather than James Bond. is performence in Quantum of Solace is the worst of all the actors in my opinion. And easily the worst film. Most of the Bond films I give an 8, 9 or 10. Quantum I just give a 3/10.
