I put this question to ye!

Could Timothy Dalton the best Bond ever have taken over the role
from Pierce Brosnan in say 1995 instead of the other way round?

So the progression from Moore would have been less dramatic.
Would this have worked better?

What do you think?

I think it may have worked very well and Dalton would not have been
stigmatised as much for his portrayal.

No.

Dalton older than Brosnan - and have you seen him recently?

Dalton was born in 1946, making him 56, only 2 years younger than Roger Moore when he made AVTAK - Bond needs a little 'spring in his step'

As much as I like Dalton - He's now too bleedin' old!
Pierce is fine at the moment - and maybe he will still look ok for the next one - but after that......

Don't forget that Roger is older than Sean.

But otherwise, no.

I'd just as soon see Steve Guttenberg play Bond.
