What are your favorite Bond films by each actor? Mine would be the following:

Sean Connery - Goldfinger

Sean Connery's best performance as Bond, as well as a great villain and great locations. A lot of fun to watch.

George Lazenby - On Her Majesty's Secret Service

This was a tough choice. :)

Seriously though, this is a great Bond film. My second favorite overall next to Casino Royale.

Roger Moore - The Spy Who Loved Me

Just awesome. Great action and stunts all the way through. It also has, in my opinion, the best Bond girl.

Timothy Dalton - The Living Daylights

Before I probably would have said Licence to Kill, but after watching this recently I realized how much I really enjoy it. The pre-credits sequence and John Barry's score alone make this a great film.

Pierce Brosnan - The World is Not Enough

Despite it's flaws, I love this film. I think performance wise, third time was a charm for each actor (with the obvious exceptions of Lazenby and Dalton, and Craig for now). Brosnan looked like he was really enjoying playing Bond in this one and gave a great performance.

Daniel Craig - Casino Royale

My new favorite Bond film overall, at least until Bond 22 comes along. Daniel Craig's performance was flawless. I can't wait to see where he goes from here.

Sean Connery - Goldfinger - Thunderball close 2nd
George Lazenby - On Her Majesty's Secret Service
Roger Moore - The Spy Who Loved Me - Octopussy is a distant, but respectable 2nd
Timothy Dalton - The Living Daylights
Pierce Brosnan - GoldenEye - The World Is Not Enough is a distant, but respectable 2nd
Daniel Craig - Casino Royale - I wonder if Bond 22/23/etc... will even come close to this.

Interesting idea, Mr Bond 93, but he wasn't in it.


If you're actually 13, you're not actually old enough to have seen LTK so we can assume that you like TLD??? Or have you not seen all the Bond movies yet?

It's no problem. You do bring up something though. As DaveBond21 said, it would have been interesting to have had Timothy Dalton in For Your Eyes Only, especially considering it's a more serious story. :)

Agreed. I would have like Dalton's Bond to have played opposite Carole Bouquet's Melina and to visit Tracy's grave. Back to the subject at hand-

Connery-Thunderball, he's just the ultimate epitome of masculine super-confidence and capability here. Whenever I put on a tuxedo, I want to be the Bond of TB.

Lazenby-On Her Majesty's Secret Service

Moore-Moonraker, my first Bond film in the cinema and one of the series' most underrated films.

Dalton- The Living Daylights, the best "007 actor debut" film IMHO.

Brosnan-Die Another Day, despite the videogamish final 1/3, I like the more aged Brosnan who's been toughened up by time in a North Korean prison.

Craig-Casino Royale

I seem to have a preference for each actor's 4th Bond film. Let's see if Craig stays around till Bond 24.

Sean Connery-FRWL- Only Good Sean Connery, anyway.

Geroge Lazenby-OHMSS- IT was almost- oh wait, there wasn't any others!

Roger Moore-LALD- Mua! The Masterpiece! The Perfect one! 10/10, with AVTAK as a very close second in all bond films!

Timothy Dalton-Both- Both were some of the worst i've ever seen. 4/10 each.

Pierce Brosnan-TND, TWINE, and DAD-Tie. All are 9/10, and good. Goldeneye was a failure though.

Daniel Craig-CR-Not The Best, Not The Worst
