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!

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.
