It's a shame his entries weren't better. Even though there's only two, they are both fantastic entries in the series at least. Brosnan has Goldeneye and that's about it. Though I would say, Tomorrow Never Dies is a LOT more prescient than it should have been. Someone manipulating the media to gain profits at the expense of the world is something we all have seen become a reality. I think it would do better on a rewatch. I also really like TWINE, though people don't. Die Another Day is the worst by far however. Just an awful, awful movie. --- http://i169.photobucket.com/albums/u223/chocolateFRESH/arts/kraid.png - Thanks GP cosmonaut! http://i.imgur.com/TuJWAR8.jpg <cite>Kaldrenthebold posted [p:976313872] in James Bond...

I think there was a lot more going on behind the scenes too, with the franchise in a weird purchasing limbo and no one knowing what was going on. IIRC Dalton was supposed to be in Goldeneye too, which would have been an interesting take.

Winterking 09/26/23 10:22:16 AM #14:	Moore is my favorite, though a lot of that may be virtue of his movies generally being my favorites. Dalton or Lazenby was probably the best, IMO. They still moving forward with an Idris Elba Bond? I gotta say, I'm interested to see how that turns out. <cite>Winterking posted [p:976314199] in James Bond...

Craig started in his 30s and stopped around 50 (remember that No Time to Die got delayed for quite a while) Yeah, they probably "learned their lesson" with Roger Moore. Not to say he wasn't a great Bond, just that... times have changed. He was embarrassed to learn he was older than Tanya Roberts' mother at the time, and that's amusing. But nowadays such an age difference would go beyond amusing into serious backlash.

GuerrillaSoldier 09/26/23 12:04:37 PM #24:	yup, glad Dalton is getting love. much deserved. he really fit the part and played it well. i gotta also agree that Lazenby was just perfect for that movie, and i'm glad he didn't do more to ruin that. though i think Brosnan did an incredible job recreating new iconic mannerisms for Bond. the way he sat, the way he would stare, his little face remarks. i think that type of Bond played well, especially for the times. he's definitely the most overall charismatic of the bunch. thumbs down on Moore and Craig for me. didn't like their portrayals, and not really a fan of most of their movies either. --- Disclaimer: There's a good chance the above post could be sarcasm.
