The Best 007
Watching a mini 007 marathon on USA Netwrok today and decided we needed to definitively answer this question:
Who is/was the best 007? Here's mine: My namesake. Thank goodness my Mom had a thing for him or Lord only knows what name I would've ended up with!

Re: The Best 007
I agree. He is #2 on my list. A meaner, leaner Bond.

I never read the books, but I really like the "grittiness" Craig brings to the role. Almost more believable.

Re: The Best 007
Sean Connery is the best 007 IMHO.

Re: The Best 007
I really like Craig. Connery is classic, of course, but his Bond is much more detached. Craig is much more committed to the role, IMO. Or maybe I'm just jaded by the fact that Connery is the classic "Bond". Who knows. My vote goes to Craig though.

Re: The Best 007
I think that once Craig gets a few more under his belt, he'll edge our Connery on my list. Yet I am curious - why no mention of Barry Nelson, Peter Sellers, or Woody Allen in your questionnaire?

Re: The Best 007
Connery hands down. I wish we could have had Connery as Bond now with present day special effects and shooting. It would have made him even better.
Craig does portray the novel Bond better then any other Bond, but he will have to become a lot more sinister to match the novel.

Re: The Best 007
Forgot about Barry Nelson (actually think I confused hime with gene barry) and Woody et al go with Mr. Niven in the spoof Royale.

Re: The Best 007
Sean Connery for me, I'm a die hard JB fan. Roger Moore in 2nd.
I like Daniel Craig but am a little disappointed he said it was time for Bond to do a gay scene. Please realize I have NOTHING against homosexuality -- but James Bond isn't gay. |

Re: The Best 007
Agreed! I really liked Pierce Brosnan... he would be my second choice.

Re: The Best 007
I should have just listed Casino Royale spoof et al as the last choice!

Re: The Best 007
Was always a close one between Connery and Moore for me with a slight edge to Moore but after the last two Craig could very easily become my favorite if they continue to make them like that.
