Hey fellow Teamliquidians,

I just borrowed all James Bond Movies from a friend and started to watch them in chronological order. In my opinion are the old movies much better than the new ones since the old ones have much more of this secret agend flair that made the movies so magical when I watched them for the first time when I was kid.

This leads me to the question I'm curious about and why I actually started this blog post:

Poll: Who is James Bond for you?

Sean Connery (71)
 
41%

Pierce Brosnan (66)
 
38%

Roger Moore (16)
 
9%

Daniel Craig (16)
 
9%

Timothy Dalton (4)
 
2%

George Lazenby (1)
 
1%

174 total votes

Your vote: Who is James Bond for you?

(Vote): Sean Connery
(Vote): George Lazenby
(Vote): Roger Moore
(Vote): Timothy Dalton
(Vote): Pierce Brosnan
(Vote): Daniel Craig



For me it's Roger Moore. I guess the main reason for this is the fact that Live and let die is my favorite 007-movie and first the few James Bond movies I watched were starred by Roger Moore. By that time I wasn't aware of the fact, that the actors change over time :D
Second best for me is Sean Connery, no doubt about that. I think Pierce Brosnan was a pretty decent James Bond too, even though I didn't like the plots of his movies so much.

I don't really like Daniel Craig acting this role... I don't know but somehow I don't think it fits.

For me, I grew up with Pierce Brosnan as James bond for me especially due to that 007 game for the N64, so for most of my life, Pierce Brosnan was my image of bond. I have yet to watch the other films before I reconsider, though.

While Daniel Craig doesn't fit the visual image of Bond in my opinion, I really think the personality he has brought back to Bond compared to Brosnan is a breath of fresh air. I would say it is a tie between Craig and Roger Moore for me.

I absolutely hated Pierce Brosnan as Bond. As much of a fan I am, I can barely watch his movies.

Not really a huge bond guy... But my image in my head has always been Brosnan because it was in my 'era' of growing up, and because of the videogame, of course.

Who would choose Dalton or Lazenby? They were in a total of what, 3 movies all together? It is Connery first, then Brosnan to me. Roger Moore is a distant 3rd, then Craig fourth.

I, too, grew up with Pierce Brosnan as Mr. Bond. If someone says "James Bond", Goldeneye is the first thing that pops up in my mind. I do really enjoy Sean Connery's and Roger Moore's movies and think they do exellent James Bond. I just grew up with Brosnan :3.

Is anyone gonna vote on Dalton or Lazenby? lol

Sean Connery for me, actually Roger Moore wasn't bad either and his movies had a special something and were often in 2nd degree, he made James Bond films a comedy and not a spy movie.
Special mention to Timothy Dalton, he made a good Bond too. (the music of his only (I think ?) Bond movie is perhaps for something in this.)
Brosman and Craig, bleh, especially Craig. Brosman was ok.
The thing that doesn't fit for Craig is he's blond. James Bond can't be blond.

Connery movies are just the best. Roger Moore always came across as more slapstick than anything. I've not watched any of the Daniel Craig ones so I can't comment on the newest but Sean Connery was the best.

Brosnan is the defining Bond for me. Craig is pretty good but right now he doesn't stack up to Connery or Brosnan or Moore.

Dalton was really good in License to Kill.

And Lazenby......who voted him???

I tend to picture Pierce Brosnan as, like others in this thread, he's the Bond I grew up with.

I also agree that Daniel Craig just doesn't seem to look quite right as Bond but his films have been good.

Sean Connery is definitely among the best but they were all quite entertaining.

Fun fact: I went to the same primary school that Sean Connery went to.

Roger Moore, because whenever I think of James Bond I think of him slapping around his Bond girls.

And moon lasers.

divided between Brosnan and Sean Connery. I think that growing up, I've seen more Brosnan on TV but Connery is such a bad ass.
