He's classic, like a Bentley or Aston Martin.
My only thing for Bond is dark (or ish) hair & reasonably tall.
Craig?
FAIL!

But I just watched On Her Majesty's Secret Service- THERE was a Bond movie, all right!!!



The Moore flicks were a little goofy(View to a Kill was punishment!) but still funto watch. Take out the fun, and the goofy, and you have Rambo(QOS).

By the way I just watche Thunderball last night for the first time.....amazing. Better than From Russia with Love.


Also Domino is the sexiest bond girl ever!!

Wasn't it excellent? Just enough super-spy stuff while maintaining a level of believability. It's my call for the best Connery film, even above Goldfinger *gasp*.

No argument there.

Edit: I used to like Never Say Never Again, but I hadn't seen Thunderball since the seventies in the theatre, I just bought Thunderball last year on DVD, & now I can't even watch NSNA again, lol.

The under water sequence toward the end was mind blowing. Connery was annihilating the bad guys with spear guns and a knife. And he used every gadget just when he needed it most. That's the true James Bond. Wow!

Did ya catch the continuity error in the scenes after Bond takes the bad guys mask off & uses it?

Yeah. I thought something was wacky in that scene. Was Never say Never Again a remake?
I bought all four volumes of the James Bond complete collection. and that one wasn't even included in frakking sets!!!
Must be a rights issue.

NSNA was not an Eon production, so it can't be included in the sets. It was a remake & not very good, but still better than the Moore flicks that were coming out at the time IMO.
