Question Who made the Best James Bond?

OK, not got round to this yet - strangely!

So, who do you think made the best James Bond?

And (not in the vote), who should be the NEXT Bond, now Brosnan has been binned? Answer below.

PS: I'm not putting 'Casino Royale' up for consideration as it had about 20 Bonds in it and was a spoof movie - let's wait until they make a proper version!!!

Thumbs up

It's got to be Connery, at least he is an ex Matelot.

Certainly not that ponce Rodger Moore, for me it’s got to be Brosnan. If not him then Lazenby but he only made one (I think). Sean is alright but looking back at his movies he really is as wooden as John Wayne, he looked like an old man in his first Bond. Still top marks go to him for being able to say Pusshee better than anyone.

Well it has be a toss up between Connery and Brosnan, but I think Brosnan edges it by having those 'hero' looks and screen presence.

Up until Goldeneye it was Connery, but I think Brosnan was superb as Bond and as far as I'm concerned is the best.

Morning Miss Moneypenny.......

In a scottish accent, Mr. Connery defo wins, although Mr. Brosnan has been v good in the role. All those cunning stunts, as well as linguistics (sp?)

The next one, now that is a good question.

Could Colin Firth take up the role of master spy? Could Robbie make a spoof 007 film?
Needs to be a British person whatever, so no Brad or George to be included. Brads' got a crap irish accent, so wouldn't even get close.


Where are all the ladeeees with their answers, I thought that this would be right up their street?

Isn't he just a little bit too American, not to mention too short to play James Bond?

I would have to go with Sean really just that accent makes your knees go all gooey however second would definately have to be Pierce who was definately a better hero than Sean just without the accent.

For my next James Bond I would like Euan McGregor please (preferably with as few clothes on as possible and rescuing me single handed from the clutches of some baddie at which point we get a little interlude in a nice hotel before going on to save the world together......

(note to self must stop drooling on keyboard now )
