    Re: 50 years of Bond !! James Bond :)

    James Bond... some of the best films ever made IMO and some of the best sound tracks as well, pure class. I have to say for me Sean Connery was the best James Bond.

    On another note does anyone else think Daniel Craig would be better as a villain than as James Bond?



    Also, I find it harder to pick my favourite James Bond song than to my favourite film!

    Although this is my favourite James Bond cover song.

    some interesting names listed ( quite how many were genuinely considered is another matter )

    There are even a few old James Bond screen tests on youtube

    Overall I really like the bond films, but the last few with Daniel Craig are just pants!

    Connery - the original and best. Really admired (and wanted) the suit and the car! I've been a three piece suit guy ever since.

    Re: 50 years of Bond !! James Bond :)

    In my personal order (best to worst)

    Connery (just the classic Bond) > Craig (bit gritty) > Brosnan > Dalton (mainly for licence to kill) > Moore (bit dull but the films were good) > Lazenby
    I've got stuff for sale!

    I tended to like them all but certainly Connery is up there as no.1. Last few with Craig very good as really modern take.

    Roger Moore is my favourite bond

    I reckon Michael Fassbender would pull it off well too

    Disagree! Seen them all at least half a dozen times each (thanks ITV! ). I think having a 'James Bond' that is not trying to copy the legendary Sean Connery was a bold move for which I respect.
