Pierce Brosnan. To be fair I like them all in their own ways, and really do have a soft spot for the Roger Moore era, but Brosnan is my Bond.

I sort of like it in that "it's so of is time" kind of way but I really didn't like it at the time and the only time I ever hear it is when I see the movie again.

Dalton or Brosnan

>>221079532
Tbh my biggest issue with the whole Craig saga is making him a rookie in the first movie only to suddenly be treated like a dinosaur in the second.

>>221080822
thank Quantum and the writers strike

>>221080773
And the theme for Octopussy fit its movie? Come on man.

>>221080822
I pretty much forget he's supposed to be a rookie, even in Casino Royale it feels like there's some big time skip from that first scene and him later in Africa.

>>221080773
those first two notes from goldfinger are so good and i like the hook. i thought it fit, if a bit schmaltzy. but then weren't most of moore's later songs just that?

i think the two new wave bond themes (AVTAK/TLD) are always considered top tier. i find it funny how a-ha shit talked john barry saying he complained about duran duran the entire session and was "weird about women". the a-ha version they recorded without him is infinitely worse than the movie version

it's interesting how Daniel Craig alone is clearly of different race, phenotype.
in another words, minus Daniel, the rest all look the same.

>>221080951
Not sure what that anons story is as I'd never heard any of that before but the story I remember is they just really didn't like Barry's contributions or any of the orchestral stuff and constantly pushed back all the time, which is ultimately why there's the movie version and their own really shitty version.

>>221079502
Best lead: Connery. Moore had very good spy-smoothness but was stained by too much stupid content so he loses 2nd place to Brosnan.

Best movie: My favorite changes all the time.
Currently my top 3 are:
You Onry Riv Twice
Golden Eye
License to Kill

Worst movies: Diamonds are Forever, Moonraker, LaLD

Most overrated: Skyfall
Most underrated/Guilty pleasure: VtaK:

>>221080951
>Lead singer Morten Harket stated in an interview with Paul Lester of The Guardian in 2016 that Barry was "honestly not an easy guy to like. He was very strange in that he started to befriend us by talking bad about Duran Duran. He made some degrading comments about them and what they'd been doing and that didn't sit well with any of us". Harket stated further that; "he then made some derogatory comments about women and it was all uncalled for. There will be people who knew him who will have a very different view of him. But he didn't go down well with us."[5]
supposedly a-ha cut off everyone from the bond team after and were livid, for some reason, the singer claims their theme wasn't used in the american version to spite them. (???)

I unironically went through the same thing with some other actor (forgot who) and I thought it meant I was gay or some shit. Then as I started growing up I just realized I want to be just as good looking and cool as that actor.

>>221079502
the best Bond was Connery in Dr. No

and you know i'm right, the only problem is that he stopped being Bond more and more every sequel, honestly i want to say Brosnan but i recent rewatched TLD, i'm giving it to Dalton also hot take

TLD>LtK

>no Idris alba
Fuckin hell man can't say I'm surprised

>>221081012
Sounds like their a bunch of sensitive tards (what could we really expect from someone that made Take On Me desu) and Barry was an akward old guy just trying to be relatable with them and probably just said he thought some woman was hot. The guy was almost 60 at that time.

>>221081110
>he stopped being Bond more and more every sequel
it's very very easy to tell when connery stops giving a shit in the movies. like when he turns japanese and just slightly squints and hunches then gives up on it five minutes later
dr. no/from russia are obviously when his heart was the most in it. i'd argue he's even kinda half assing goldfinger
>TLD>LtK
both dalton movies have a shitload of problems that his fans overlook. if TLD just didn't have that third act where it turns into a moore movie (afghanistan, the crazy general), it'd be one of the best bond films

>>221081113
I'm glad, I can't stand the guy. It's not even a racial thing either, he's just a shitty actor that plays the same character all the time.

i get that he is colder but he is also the most layered imo, i think actor for actor he is the heavy weight of all Bond actors, he does alot with his eyes when his script is lacking, but yeah he wasn't great at the quips but goddamn it Fleming would have loved him

>However, in 2006 A-ha's Paul Waaktaar complimented Barry's contributions "I loved the stuff he added to the track, I mean it gave it this really cool string arrangement. That's when, for me, it started to sound like a Bond thing".

I liked the colder shit. Even I felt pretty upset when that friend of his was killed at that festival and Daltons reaction really makes you feel it. I felt it somewhat similar to For Your Eyes Only when Moore tosses that little dove pin back at Loque and you can feel the hatred as he kicks the car to make it fall off the cliff.

i love it cause it feels like Book Bond, you can't really read him fully, he has alot going on in his mind and you could see the anger and resentment at the cost of this job but you can also see the calculations and temper being cooled and restrained, even a bit of sadness but also weirdly a tenacity to the challenge? Not letting Moore have more moments of coldness was a mistake cause he could do it

great actor, lackluster movies is my own consensus on dalton. when they make him do more moore-ish stuff, it's really frustrating to see the talent wasted. the deleted carpet ride scene from TLD just shows where the production's mindset was
>he does alot with his eyes
it's the burnt out look. i also think the lankiness fits bond a lot more, pierce kinda had it but he's too damn handsome.
i'll also add dalton manages to pull off some of the shittier 80s clothes in LTK. the only really terrible shot they did him dirty on is the casino, where they really made his hairline apparent. then again, the casino scene is probably one of the worst things in the bond series, it looks like shit and the budget cuts really show there.

>>221081256
The only parts I find weak are the entire Japanese bath & transformation part and the wooden plank airplane trap. I seriously LOVE the rest.
But hey, I like VtaK. (VtaK, FYEO, and TSWLM are the only Moore I like at all)

>>221081294
Exactly. I think there were little glimmers of that from Moore, but there was a lot more of it with Dalton. I really wish there was a third Dalton movie.

>>221079532
Justice, stupid chuds.

>>221081300
>it's the burnt out look
precisely. It's something Craig couldn't pull off which is ironic cause he was burnt out after casino royale, Connery was also burnt out but in a not give a fuck need a paycheck way, Moore was old, and Brosnan never got burnt out but "got the boot"

In many ways, Dalton is the coldest Bond. Yet, his relationships with the Bond girls are actually the warmest in the whole series, with the exception of OHMSS. You get the feeling he actually cares about Kara and Pam and isn't just with them for a one night stand.

> the only really terrible shot they did him dirty on is the casino, where they really made his hairline apparent
Funny, I always thought this too. I kept thinking "why did they have to slick his hair back so hard and make it so greasy" compared to how it usually looked with that fluffy forward portion.

>>221081346
>You get the feeling he actually cares about Kara and Pam and isn't just with them for a one night stand.
yeah, he feels more like an unconcious womanizer at worst, someone really self aware and sincere about how it's not them so much as it's him and his life but is down for a meaningful time with you but he throws you in the bin almost unconciously because it's really for your own good, Kara for example could never be a part of his world she's practically a civilian, as oppose to Brosnan and Connery that just want to fuck, and Craig feeling spiteful towards women.

Fuck, now i'm thinking about Dalton's first movie being Casino Royale in a different timeline

>>221081346
The Living Daylights is probably the only movie in the franchise that gives me the "tfw no gf" feel since it feels like there's such genuine care.

i don't think fleming ever went into detail about bond's hair. the illustration he commissioned shows bond's hairline slightly receding, but c'mon. this is just goofy. it seems like they did everything to cover dalton's hairline throughout LTK except for this one shot. i've read people say it's since bond's "undercover" here but it really looks bad.
it doesn't help that the casino set looks like absolute shit.
>>221081346
>Yet, his relationships with the Bond girls are actually the warmest in the whole series
i think that's what saves a lot of dalton's movies for me. he's so damn warm with the women. and even if the latina/pam subplot is undercooked in LTK, him jumping into the pool for pam is one of his most defining bond moments imo

>>221081453

Yeah, pretty much everything about that whole part of the movie was so badly done, which sucks since the rest of the movie really does make it one of the absolute best. Some anon a while back said it's the only true time where he is fully undercover and never reveals himself, only having to at the very end when he's found out from having been seen earlier by a henchman.

it's that second act in LTK that i don't think even die hard dalton fans would defend. it just drags, the sets get really bad, the movie just stays indoors to save money, and dalton gets attacked by ninjas. i also really wish Q wasn't part of the story, because then the more moore-ish features come back, like the laser polaroid/ninja part.
it picks back up. but goddamn, they really needed that break and new blood to step in. they were literally using a 70+ year old scriptwriter and a lot of moore's senior team on dalton's movies. that's why i don't think an immediate third dalton movie would've been great, it needed that reset with pierce and goldeneye

Legend says that a good amount of Goldeneye was written with Dalton in mind, so it could've been good, but we'll never truly know. I do consider Goldeneye to be the last truly great Bond movie though, nothing that followed came anywhere close. I think my only criticism was Natasha was pretty boring and felt more like a prop since she had pretty much no backstory at all and there's no real reason why she would suddenly be in love with Bond and go on about him always ending up alone (you met 5 days ago like goddamn).

Natasha feels like the messiest part of the movie by far, she feels like such an afterthought. Other shit that didn't help as I recall was product placement, such as the new BMW Z3 which was still so new and so last minute for the movie that it was one of the pre-production prototype cars.

It's the weakest of the Connery movies, but it's still a pretty fun movie. The setting being 70s Las Vegas was absolute kino, I event visited a few locations a while ago to see what it all looks like IRL. Not a lot remained though and the road he drives on is now a pedestrian only road.

A lot of older Bond movies do a good job with the globe-trotting setting, it's great.
Also the moon buggy chase out in the desert where he's casually driving along and everyone else just crashes of their own accord is peak silly Bond.

it's such a weird turn for bond's first big american outing (unless you count the barn in goldfinger). i think it gives it the weird scummy charm that just looms over diamonds, the outtake with an aging sammy davis should've been kept in.
the visuals of diamonds in general get overlooked. everything looks sunburnt. barely would register as a ken adams project if it weren't for the oil base at the end and blofeld's hotel room with the weird bathroom

>>221082136
>>221082145
It was fantastically well done, it just had some bits that were maybe a bit too goofy for a Connery flick and I think that he really was just too out of shape for the role rather than too old, he could've still been a suave and charming older Bond if not for getting out of shape.

The hotel in Miami where the start of Goldfinger was filmed is also still there which is neat.That same hotel and pool is apparently pretty famous and has been in a lot of movies and shows, I even recognized it in an episode of Miami Vice.

She's been set up to be killed, and has been interrogated and had her apartment trashed by Pushkin and his goons, and she's still "Is Gyorgy here? I can't wait to see him."
She's too pure for the Second World, and Bond knows she's headed for heartbreak.
He could've waited until Koskov's plan was thwarted, but Bond was overcome and we know why.

Dalton's Bond had the best car

I used to love the Brosnan movies, but upon rewatching the series as an adult, he's fucking dreadful, no charm, retarded movies that aged terribly and look cheap. Easily the second worst, with Craig as the obvious worst. Connery and Moore are the best. Dalton is pretty good but didn't get enough time, his second movie is a banger though.

>>221083029
Goldeneye was excellent but the quality of the movies drops heavily with each subsequent movie, hitting an all time low with Die Another Day.

>>221083029
yeah on a series rewatch Brosnan went from my favorite to like third place

>>221083187
I rewatched the whole lot when I go to about 30 and my ratings really changed from when I was a kid and a teenager. Surprisingly I found Moore and Dalton to be my favorites but for opposite reasons, with my view of Brosnan movies (save for Goldeneye and TND) being probably the lowest rated of the pre-Craig era. The Brosnan movies still had hot Bond girls though, you can't get through The World Is Not Enough without being hard up for Elektra in that weird pantyhose stuff she wore constantly.

>>221083029
goldeneye is so fucking good it ruins the other three movies. for what it's worth, i at least appreciate DAD's spectacle and stupidity, it feels like a nice note for brosnan's era to go out on. idk, it's a nice throwback to the dumber moore movies and it's high energy compare to TND/TWINE

I was never that into her for some reason. Maybe if she was the lone Bond girl in a movie I would, but Elektra was just hotter. Or maybe it was the crazy aspect and all the dark shit about her, which lines up with my eventual dating history as I grew up.

>Who?
Jamal Bond, sir. He's a black British secret agent. He was probably sent here to acquire the secret codes for Operation Purple Drank III.
>Black secret agent? BLACK? They sent a stupid fucking NIGG... (sighs with disgust)....right. Have your men take the codes and place them inside a book, then in a stack of job applications, then in a waterproof container. Anchor it in the deep end of the east wing pool, making sure to remove any flotation devices from the pool facility. If there's three things blacks can't stand, it's books, job applications, and swimming, so the codes will be perfectly safe. Next, have the gift shop announce a 50% sale on all designer basketball shoes, hats, and sports jersey's with free kool-aid to all customers. Blacks can't resist designer basketball shoes, hats, sports jersey's or free kool-aid. Capture him while he's trying on shoes, then call the police and child welfare services to find out if he's got any outstanding warrants or behind on any child support for the many illegitimate children he is sure to have. They will both undoubtedly answer yes to these inquiries, and when they do, you may then coordinate a time to turn him over to their custody.
Very good, sir.

i don't think there's too much LALD haters. it's so bizarre that it stands out, and roger moore is giving one of his coldest performances. he didn't really lean into the goofier aspects until TSWLM

>>221083788
I guess the movies got campier as the decade went on, it was the 70s after all. LALD definitely had some of the more classic Connery feel about it, especially with the hotel scene where he destroys all the microphones and there's the snake he flambes, that all had a bit of a Thunderball feel to it.

Man I need to watch all these movies again, these threads make me fall in love with the series all over again every time.

>>221082817

every bond got campier with each next movie, except dalton, he got darker and then fired

Casino Royale (with Craig) is the only actually good james bond movie. The rest may rightfully appeal to fans of the series, but as standalone they're mostly just goofy and retarded.

>>221083854
you take that back

>>221083824
Dalton wasn't fired, his contract period ran out because of legal issues between MGM and EON that dragged on into the 90s.
>The film was cancelled due to legal issues between UA/MGM and Eon Productions, which lasted for four years.
>Dalton reflected in 2007, "I was supposed to make one more, but it was cancelled because MGM and the film's producers got into a lawsuit which lasted for five years. After that, I didn't want to do it anymore."

It's an odd one to say the least, it stands out among the rest but not necessarily in a good way. The scenes of 70s Hong Kong were cool at least but the whole movie did have more of a Connery feel.

>>221083882
>I didn't want to do it anymore
that really saddens me but he knew it was for the best to walk away, they didn't know what they wanted to do with Bond and audiences didn't want a darker Bond yet and didn't want to be stuck in a film that couldn't decide what kind of Bond they wanted it to be about

>>221083934
After sitting for that long and not knowing what's happening, he'd probably accepted it wouldn't ever happen and moved on from it. 5 years is a long ass time to be in limbo about a job, considering filming had wrapped in 1988 for the previous movie and that legal shit wasn't done until some time in 1993. I mean shit, the Soviet Union didn't even exist anymore by that point and hadn't for 2 years.

i hate every time someone posts this clip cause it makes me have to reconcile an uncomfortable truth, i was raided on Moore's Bond, he will always be my personal favorite and he himself was a victim of his own success and charm, but his films really did damage to the image of Bond in an unintentional way (i'd argue Connery created the first cracks). Dalton's Bond was almost set up to fail and Brosnan went back to camp shit right after his one and only good movie. Dalton also sounds so passionate about James Bond as a character, like a man who praises an ex wife and wishes the best for her but has moved on. All that for two ok bond movies with a Bond ahead of his time

>>221084208
Dalton didn't even want to be in that scene lol

it's infuriating. i do love that dalton maniacs are willing to overlook a lot of the two movies flaws, but there's just so many punches pulled. the broccoli's and studio just fucking loved the more zany part of moore movies and refused to hire new crew. TLD/LTK really didn't need john glen's flat ass directing, imagine if they actually got new blood. LTK would've kicked ass with an actual american director since that's what the movie's going for
TLD can't be TOO serious, so add in an action packed afghan act and a wacky military general. LTK can't be TOO violent, so make sure felix doesn't die and add in a horny wayne newton while dalton tries to explode a window with toothpaste. there's so much shit actively working against what could've been two of bond's best outings

>>221084274
>Henry Cavill was the preferred choice of director Martin Campbell; however, was deemed too young to portray Bond.

Connery objectively
Moore is my favourite though

Connery effortlessly juggles charm and seeming like a genuine tough guy.
Brosnan is incredibly likable and charismatic.
Craig had a decent enough start, but honestly never really came across as Bond.

>I would need to revisit the others. Probably haven't seen any of those movies since I was barely sentient.
You'll enjoy Moore for his charming and slight goofiness, he plays it in just the right way that it never really feels too silly. Overall some of the most fun movies.
Dalton has a serious edge while still being very charming, he's one of those actors that can express a lot through just expressions and his eyes, it's excellent for the style the movies had going on.
Lazenby is good, though stranger still is that they cast an Australian as James Bond, it was a weird time I guess. He's a decent enough Connery replacement though.

>>221085747
The third act is weak and just ends with a Max Max reference. TLD has a similar issue but at least the plane stunt at the end is awesome.

It's neither of their faults that the movies never really held up against the source material. Craig is just fucking hilarious. It's not really Bond, but it's impossible not to love his performance in general.
Really though, fuck James Bond, as in people take this shit way too seriously, like it's a religion. It's a loose framework of a character set to the backdrop of spy adventures. Let people adapting it do whatever they want.

Anyone else thoguh about how Brosnan is the most suave and handsome Bond, yet he is actually the least romantic and passionate towards women? I find that kind of ironic.
