Favorite James Bond Actor

[emperor26]

To be honest, I actually prefer Daniel Craig, the current James Bond.

To me, he has good skills in acting, and as shown in Casino Royale, proves to live up to the Bond character (he's expected to appear in the sequel to Casino Royale).

But anyway, I like Daniel Craig.

I'd have to say Roger Moore, simply because I've seen more of his movies than any of the others.

Old school Sean Connery - Goldfinger, Thunderball, etc.:frankiesmile:

Sir Sean all the way, baby.

Sir Sean all the way, baby.


My choice, too!

This thread was just begging for a poll, so I added one. :D (Keep in mind I only stuck to the official EON productions James Bond actors, hence no David Niven or anyone like that on the list.)

As for my choice, I agree while every actor on this list brought something to the table in this role, you just can't beat the overall coolness of good old "Sir Sean".

Of course if Danial Craig brings the same energy he exhibited in "Casino Royale" to future movies, Connery might soon find himself in a tie for first place in my books.

don't forget Peter Sellers from the original Casino Royale! Classic, LMAO.

I cannot decide,

but I have to admit Bond movies are always good no matter who the actor is. for instance when you compare any Bond film to similar movies in the same Genra (thomas Crown affair, In Like Flint, ...) there is no comparison Bond movie is always better. although those movies were good, but they still were no James Bond.

In Like Flint

Wasn't that with Lee Marvin? Good movie.

In like Flint was the sequal to Our Man Flint Staring James Coburn.

oh right. both good flicks.

I feel that the original Sean Connery simply can't be beat. He apparently knew he would be defining a whole series of movies, and he set the bar well. Daniel Craig seems to be the closest to achieving the level of awesome that Connery's Bond brought to the movies.

I'm not a big Bond fan and the only Bond movie I really watched and enjoyed was Golden Eye. But I think Sean Connery was the best Bond, or at least my favorite. I'm just used to Brosnen as 007.

[Sievers]

i say Sean Connery,too.
but i like Roger Moore,too 8)
i think these two man are the REAL James Bonds. nobody played that role like them:frankiesmile:

[lucyrocks73]

SEAN RULES!!! Honestly... I could clog up this forum with eighty reasons why, but I won't...

And Daniel Craig is a close second. Great actor...

[taranchula]

And much like James Bond himself this thread has returned..

Aw, poor Tim Dalton is the only actor on the poll yet to receive any votes. Even Lazenby got one and he had the shortest stint of any of the official Bond actors, though to be fair "On Her Majesty's Secret Service" was a pretty good little flick and one of the few movies to be almost identical to the Ian Fleming novel from which it was based on.

Looking back on the Dalton Bond movies (The Living Daylights and License to Kill) you would have to admit they were pretty ahead of their time as you can tell that the producers wanted a grittier more realistic Bond to try and distance the series from the fun yet campy films of the Roger Moore era. Much in the same way Casino Royal was their successful attempt to try and distance the series from the fun yet campy later 2 films of the Brosnan era.

George Lazenby was a very good Bond.

And Daniel Craig is very good as well.

But, ya just can't beat Sean Connery.

Same here. I've only seen Goldeneye, so Pierce is probably my favourite!
