FOX411: How do you think Daniel Craig is doing as Bond?

Moore: I believe he’s an excellent Bond. He’s much stronger than I am. I think he does a hell of a good job of it. He and Sean (Connery) are I think undoubtedly the best Bonds.

FOX411: Where do you rank yourself?

Moore: I think a little bit behind George Lazenby I suppose.

Timothy Dalton was the right Bond at the wrong time. Dalton's Bond fits very well with the modern style of Bond, but back then the world wasn't ready to move on from Moore and Connery.

I like Craig's Bond for successfully breaking the mold. I like Connery for successfully making a mold that was so very hard to break.

Moore was just a bit too... well, to quote a previous poster, "high camp". Bond as a character was a nasty dangerous man. Connery played him suave for the audience of his time, but there was always a sadistic misogynist bubbling away under the surface. You just knew that Connery's Bond could have been a proper vicious bastard if they had let him.

If Connery's Bond had been allowed to take the gloves off like Craig today, the only debate we'd be having now would be "who was the second-best Bond?"

Not true, according to the books.  Broccoli himself said Dalton was the most accurate Bond.

Dalton said he read Ian Fleming's books and even referenced them on set to better portray the character.

I know... and I don't know exactly how that sits with me right now. While I loved Skyfall... I don't want it to lapse back into the cheesiness that some of the movies had (particularly the Moore movies) gotten themselves in to.

Craig's 007 is a wrecking ball with a tux on. I hope they can keep that momentum going.

Skyfall was the most forgettable Bond since Die Another Day (which was one of the worst).

Skyfall began predictably, even with the "twist" of Bond getting "killed", got a bit interesting in the middle, but ultimately settled for self-references and a silly finale.  If Judy Dench hadn't put some emotion into the last 20 minutes, it would've been an utter snoozefest

All I know is Craig did waaaayyyy better than I thought he would .  I remember when they first announced he was the new Bond, all I could do is think of the Riddler in the old 60's Batman and Robin show.  Casino Royale was a fresh start for the franchise and a turn back to spy thrillers vs. the hokey gadgetry and Austin Powers type villains.

Oh, and Connery is #1

Connery
Craig/Dalton
Moore
Brosnan
Lazenby (sp?)

In that order.
Bronsan was a good bond, but outside of Goldeneye was stuck with shitty writing and the collapse of the USSR.

Dalton's first attempt was ok but License to Kill was one of the top 5 best Bond movies.

On her Majesties Secret Service was actually a good movie but Lazenby just couldn't pull it off. Put Connery in it, it would have been a winner.

Connery was the closest to the real thing of all the actors (unless you include Niven).

Served in the Royal Navy and was a real athlete.  Also, if you watch Dr. No and From Russia With Love, you'll see that Connery could very well play the part of a serious operator turned spy.

I admit to being a Bond nut.  I have a huge gun collection as I own a firearms training company but admit to having a PPK.  (I bought my first one in Berlin Rod and Gun in 1960 for 10 bucks at the Rod and Gun)  I watch all and don't have a worst.
I rate.  

1. Connery. Hey I'm old.
2. Tim Dalton.  (Unfortunately his relationship with the commie Redgrave hurt him)
3. Daniel Craig. (anti gun turd but a good Bond)
4. P Brosnan, very effective, actually took firearms training, and showed much personal character in staying at wife's bedside as she died.  His selection of women since his wife's death has been outstanding.
5. Roger Moore.  I actually place Moonraker as one of my favorites.  
6. George Lazenby, only because he was only in one movie.  
7. Of course we shouldn't leave out David Niven who in real life had a war record that rivaled the real Bond.

There is no really fair way to rate the various guys who played Bond.  The many movies were produced and directed by too many combinations.  If it were possible to see each actor in the same movie, you could compare how each played Bond in the same screenplay.

That said......
Connery
Craig
Lazenby
Dalton
Brosnan
Moore

and David Niven really got screwed being in the comedic Casino Royale.  He would have been better in the later versions.  He really was SAS after all.

Roger Moore is a fine actor, but his persona does not fit the Bond literature very well.  He's too much of an all around nice guy.  

Brosnan came off as Remington Steele playing Bond, which didn't work well.  Had he adopted the character he played in Thomas Crown, that would have been closer to Bond.

Conery had the look and most of the attitude but the action scenes are pretty meh. Good for the time they were made in but he looks awkward with weapons. I'll try to watch some again

Craig has the swagger , his action scenes are legit and has this slight edge like he might just waterboard someone with battery acid to make a point.

I think Brosnan and Dalton were very good in projecting the fact that Bond WILL FUCKING KILL YOU.  The Moore and Connery movies evolved into camp and barely recovered after Moonraker.

Not that it has anything to do with anything, but Barbara Broccoli (Cubby's daughter) was a smoking hot piece of ass.

Moore was an excellent bond and his films are the best ones to introduce a young man/boy to the franchise just the right mix of sex, action, silliness, and cool.  

best bond= Connery- but he's the first and had good films
#2= IMO is moore hard to be the second to connery many of his films were poorly written or just ridiculous. but if you don't see octopussy, for your eyes only, and live and let die as great bond films you should choke yourself.  
#3= Is dalton ?Dalton was a greaT BOND WITH GOOD FILMS BUT GETS OVER LOOKED SINCE HE ONLY HAD ABOUT 3
#4 is craig he's absolute shit his only saving grace is the fact he refused to play a gay bond whEN the gays demanded.It  but the very poor films he's been forced to play in  sky fall the only decent one so far others had a good scene.
#5  Brosnan not a bad bond but a little to boyish very close to moore in portrayl. but alot of fun to watch.

LAZENBY WILL NOT BE INCLUDED HE WAS A JOKE HE KNEW HE WAS A JOKE AND THE FILM WAS AWFUL.

I put on Live and Let Die on Netflix on a whim a couple days ago and the same exact thoughts came to me.







I don't think any there are any "bad" Bonds, overall. They were cast for the script and direction the production wanted to go, and each ran with it to the best of their ability.

Connery was all down hill after his role in "The Longest Day"


I think you really have to judge them by the era they are in.  One thing about the Bond series is that they do a good job of reinventing themselves every decade or so.  Sort like rock bands that have long careers. How do you compare their work over decades?  For many, the original will always be the best.  

I like the current generation right now.  Great films.

Craig is way too serious for me... I'm just not interested in a super dark Bond.

IMO the cool thing about Bond was that he always had a smirk and a smartass comment becasue he was a smooth badass, and he loved the game.

Moore close 2nd to Connery... all the coolest Bond movies when I was growing up where with Moore, so I'm sure that plays big for me.

Also agree that Dalton  is underrated... I liked him, he's my #3.

Brosnan to fembot for my tastes... you simply can't go from a crappy TV show where a feisty women is your boss, to badass 007... does not compute for me... although I admit he had some good movies in the series.

Dalton had 2 movies. The Living Daylights and Licence to Kill. While TLD wasn't bad, LTK was a great movie. At the time, people didn't like him because LTK was a very dark movie compared to the Moore years.

But what the hell do I know. I was 6 when LTK came out and was the 2nd Bond movie I saw. (dr. no on VHS was the first)

Yeah he got paid to do a big commercial film and did what they paid him to do. If they wanted the film grittier I am sure he would have been happy to oblige.  

His character in The Wild Geese was more like Craig's Bond, and Moore played it well.

Quoted:
Moore was an excellent bond and his films are the best ones to introduce a young man/boy to the franchise just the right mix of sex, action, silliness, and cool.  

best bond= Connery- but he's the first and had good films
#2= IMO is moore hard to be the second to connery many of his films were poorly written or just ridiculous. but if you don't see octopussy, for your eyes only, and live and let die as great bond films you should choke yourself.  
#3= Is dalton ?Dalton was a greaT BOND WITH GOOD FILMS BUT GETS OVER LOOKED SINCE HE ONLY HAD ABOUT 3
#4 is craig he's absolute shit his only saving grace is the fact he refused to play a gay bond whEN the gays demanded.It  but the very poor films he's been forced to play in  sky fall the only decent one so far others had a good scene.
#5  Brosnan not a bad bond but a little to boyish very close to moore in portrayl. but alot of fun to watch.

LAZENBY WILL NOT BE INCLUDED HE WAS A JOKE HE KNEW HE WAS A JOKE AND THE FILM WAS AWFUL.

pretty much agree with all this, and that Lazenby film is unfucking watchable... too bad, 'casue you'd think Orson Wells would make a great Bond villain...

anyway, I can be entertained by pretty much every Bond film, even though I've seen them all many times, but that Lazenby film isn't even satisfying background noise
