Goldeneye is definitely Brosnan's best bond film.
But I quite liked the Dalton films and wish he'd have had a couple more. |

Agreed, Dalton was a great Bond.
Pierce is 1000x better than Craig though. |

Dalton is for old dudes.
Craig is hands down, bar none, the best Bond to ever do it. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Agreed, Dalton was a great Bond. Pierce is 1000x better than Craig though. Pierce wasn't BAD, he suffered from bad writers butnI wouldn't go that far in saying he was 1k x better. Tomorrow Never Dies was really his film, pretty good film, the following two were garbage. Too over the top. Now if Goldeneye starred Dalton and then do a refresh with Pierce in the roles that Craig played it would have been good. Craig looks like if Putin was Bond with a stick up his ass. |

Brosnan was a good Bond stuck with generally underwhelming movies, although Goldeneye was a notable exception.
Although to be sure I'm not sure I'd consider any of the Bond movies particular good. Fun and enjoyable sure, but some of them are just bad. |

couldn't stand Dalton when the movies came out but looking back I don't understand what my problem with him was, Brosnan was awesome as Remington Steele but just never seemed to gel as Bond
Connery is Bond, but Lazenby in On Her Majesty's Secret Service may be my favorite Bond film |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I always really liked Dalton as Bond. He's likely the most skilled actor of the bunch. RSC can certainly crank them out. My problem with the last three on the list is they, IMHO, only have one good to great Bond film each. "The Living Daylights," "Goldeneye," "Casino Royale." Everything else---including "Skyfall" and "Licence to Kill"---are solid mehs or could be great, if there wasn't enough Idiot Ball carrying to take me out of my suspension of disbelief, when I know I'm watching a Bond movie. Not that I was expecting "The Usual Suspects" level of plot, or "Blackhawk Down" type realism here. I mean, it's a Bond movie. |

By the time he was able to play Bond he was too old. Craig was a manlet compared to Connery, Brosnan, Moore, Lazenby and Dalton. Even Niven was taller than Craig. |

I will give Tomorrow Never Dies credit for having a great opening scene. Right there with Goldeneye, problem though was the rest of the movie. Carvers henchman was too

Dalton was the best Bond. Be clearly studied the source material.
Craig was not Bond. Nothing at all like Fleming described. |

Goldeneye is the only Pierce movie worth watching.
The Living Daylights is one of my favorite Bond movies, although it’s a bit long. Dalton played a great, brooding Bond who is fed up with the job. But License to Kill was pretty mediocre. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Goldeneye is definitely Brosnan's best bond film. But I quite liked the Dalton films and wish he'd have had a couple more. Agree. Goldeneye is really the only good Brosnan film. Brosnan was a good looking guy, he had the look of Bond but I guess the films suffered with no Cold war kind of backing. Dalton was a really good bond. Better than Moore, but kinda got screwed with a shitty first movie and a great second movie. Brosnan was supposed to take over after Moore but Remington Steele kept him out. Not sure why Dalton didn't do more. I'm going to go against GD, but outside of Casino Royal I hated Craig's Bond. The movies just sucked. Connery Is the best. |
