I love bond movies, i think it's hard to compare eras. I think objectively every single craig movie is probably better than anything connery or moore did, as a movie today. But I don't think that's really a fair comparison.

Lazenby aside (and that horrible off-studio connery film) if i had to pick a favorite from each major actor they would be:

Connery - Goldfinger. "no mr bond, i expect you to die" - this was iconic.
Moore - The man with the golden gun.
Dalton - License to Kill
Brosnan - This one is closer than you'd think In the end I think Goldeneye wins because of the intro scene but Die Another Day is a very very close 2nd
Craig - My favorite here is Skyfall. Casino Royale is good. but the whole overexplained poker scene is just meh.

I've never been a fan. I don't know that I have watched a complete movie.

Craig is my favorite and Casino Royale with him is my favorite bond movie. He brought a grit and intensity to the role that no one before him did in my humble opinion. I also liked that after a fight there were clear indications that he'd been in a brawl with cuts and scratches on his face. I will admit that I loved Roger Moore back in the 70's, but I was a kid then and I just enjoyed his over the top comments. In hindsight, the movies themselves weren't that good. I typically watch any new Bond movie when it comes out, but I'm growing tired of them.

Casino Royale is also my favorite.

I also really like Skyfall and Goldeneye.

Of the Moore stuff, The Spy Who Loved Me is very good. 


I like that Bond is of its time.  The 80s stuff with Dalton is very much of the era -- License to Kill is very much Miami Vice.  Some of the Moore stuff is Blaxploitation.  The Connery stuff is very 60s.  This includes villains, but also film techniques and sound effects and score.  Even gadgets -- they come and go and get very, very silly.  Craig dialed a lot of that stuff back to be more earnest.  The quips and stuff, too.  Geez....some of that Moore stuff is straight out of Austin Powers.

The Dolphins don't have a QB problem, they have a cap management problem.  They have $74 million in dead money not including Tua.

They have both which is a double whammy.

If I have to rank the Bonds, it's probably something like this:

Brosnan
Craig
Dalton
Connery
Moore
Lazenby

Craig might be my favorite, though.  His movies certainly are.  I don't understand the love for Moore, other than it being someone you're used to.  He's an old man, he isn't physical so his stunts are lame.  He's corny AF.  I don't get it.  He's cringy, too.  He gives off molester vibes.

Any Bond movie with someone other than Moore or Connrey just doesn't seem right. 

I'm right there with you.

I liked Connery and Moore.   But I also liked Pierce Brosnan.   

Any Bond movie with someone other than Moore or Connrey just doesn't seem right. 

They are both on the lower end for me.  I liked Moore when I was younger, but much less now.  Connery, too, actually. He is good in the first 2 or 3 movies but not much after that.
