That's sad but 90 is a good knock!

The third best Bond, an Oscar for the Untouchables and various other good movies will live on in people's memories.

Might have to watch THFRO, H &TR this weekend. 👍

That’s this thread set to run for ten pages then :lol:

Sad to see that he passed. I lived across the road from where he was born for a little while. Watched him unveil a memorial plaque from my living room window.

Outrageous to put Moore ahead of Connery.

The correct order is

Craig
Connery
Brosnan
Moore
Dalton
Lazenby

Nah, I’ll grant that Dalton’s movies were better than most of Brosnan’s but he was a bit nondescript in the role. Brosnan was a good bond in mostly shit movies.

RIP - I’d like to think he lived a full life and had few regrets (Derby o’Gill aside...)

Watched this again recently - it’s as good as I remember.

Finally, Rich arrives and brings sense to this thread which I thought was descending into madness.

Same

Moore
Brosnan
Connery
Craig
Dalton
Lazenby

For me. MIC regarding Brosnan.

Connery always seemed like a genuinely nice chap but as an actor I wasn't fussed by him - one of those that was very good at playing the same part. A bit like Pacino.

Now you leave Pacino out of this. I will not hear a word said against the greatest actor ever to have graced the silver screen.

I'd wear a tuxedo to the pub and order a bottle of Bollinger, but I don't own a tux and they don't stock Bollinger. RIP.
