Decided to watch James Bond movies from the beginning. I remember my mom telling me that when she was young that my grandmother wouldn't let her see Goldfinger cause it was considered risqué. Interesting considering the stuff kids see today with the internet. lol

Anyways, whats y'all favorite Bond movie and, of course, your favorite Bond actor?

Im going hold off on favorite one because I haven't seen all of them in its entirety. I will say that Connery is probably the best Bond but Roger Moore was great as well.

I liked all the Bonds for one reason or another. Except pierce was my least favorite. The spy who loved me is one of my favorites.

Favorites:

Connery - Thunderball
Moore - A View to a Kill
Brosnan - Goldeneye
Dalton - none. I know the fan's croon about how wonderful his portrayal was, but both movies have the production value of a Spanish soap opera.
Craig - Tie between Casino Royale and Skyfall.

Also, the books are fantastic IMO. On 'Diamonds Are Forever' now.

That's pretty good, but this is a much more complete list.

Goldeneye and Casino Royale are the 2 best Bond movies ever! Hard to pick a favorite between those 2.

This might still be on netflix. Excellent documentary on Ian Fleming and his films.

Connery is probably the best actor of the bunch. He definitely brought both the spy and playboy combo the best. Connery movies had the best villain in Blowfeld and had the hottest women on earth in most of his early movies. You Only Live Twice and Thunderball were awesome as was Never Say Never Again (Basinger Bassinger was amazing and the bad guy was the craziest and my favorite psycho actor out of them all).

Roger Moore was my favorite and his movies were the best....especially his skiing ones. I would say For Your Eyes Only was the best movie overall. The early 80s music was classic (especially the ski chase lmfao). Octopussy was great as was Spy Who Loved Me. Jaws was the best henchman ever! Moonraker is a great world dominance plot and is severly underrated. Watch it if you haven't already.

Dalton was always mad and his movies were pretty bad.

Pierce looked the part but only had Golden Eye.

Craig is a good actor and Casino Royale and Skyfall were amazing and had sick ass bad guys that made the movie.

I have watched most of them over 20 times each except Dr. No, On Her majesty's secret service, Live and Let Die, and Dalton's movies.....trust me, you can skip them or just watch them once. Such amazing films, directing, acting, and the women.
