Dazey Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 (edited) Why does everyone not like Rodger Moore so much Cos his Bond was like comparing Adam West's Batman to the version in the Christopher Nolan movies.

How soWatch From Russia With Love, Moonraker, On Her Majesty's Secret Service, Octopussy, Licence to Kill, A View to a Kill and Casino Royale in that order... it should make a little bit of sense.

How soI'm not saying he was shit, I mean I enjoyed most of the Roger Moore movies but let's be honest he was just one big fuckin' eyebrow in a dinner jacket weren't he?

The reason I like Sean Connery so much is cause the movies he's in are A+ . What I like about Roger moore is that I can see him as a ladies man. Sean Connery is ugly haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Bond Posted August 2, 2012 Author Share Posted August 2, 2012 I also liked the fact that it was casual, like he was genuinely introducing himself. The reason why I didn't like it is the way he said it. It sounds just like Le Chiffre, if for some reason he would say that. Again, this is only a (very) small gripe. I see what you mean. It does sound a bit like Le Chiffre. I suppose we'll see how it works in the film. It doesn't help in the trailer that they slipped a shot in between the line. Maybe there's some context for his delivery of it, like he's worn out or something.Why does everyone not like Rodger Moore so much Nothing wrong with Sir Roger. He was the gentleman Bond and nobody could deliver a quip like him. He also gets bonus points for staying so connected to the franchise (hosting specials, granting interviews, and so on). He's got a great sense of humor in real life and one of the first things he mentions in his book when he gets to Bond is that when he took the role in Live and Let Die, his son actually asked if if he'd be as tough as the real James Bond - Sean Connery.I'd say Octopussy and The Spy Who Loved Me are my favorites of his.

Cosmo Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 The Spy Who Loved Me, Licensed To Kill, Cassino Royale and From Russia With Love are mt favorites. Also a big fan of Diamonds Are Forever, despite what people say about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Georgy Zhukov Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 Diamonds Are Forever is underrated. It couldn't be taken seriously but it was full of great moments. The first homosexual henchmen, epic Vegas car chase and Jill St. John, one of the hottest Bond girls ever and she ended up screwing Henry Kissinger.

James Bond Posted August 2, 2012 Author Share Posted August 2, 2012 Diamonds is fairly enjoyable, though its my least favorite Connery film. The pre-title sequence is horrible though. Awful editing. Good title song though and the rest of the film is fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powerage5 Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 I'd only seen the teaser before poking my head into this thread. The theatrical trailer got me so much more excited for this one; the whole premise of 007 being "dead" was kinda wild, never saw that coming (And wish it hadn't been spoiled in the trailer). Since everyone discussing them, here are my rankings of the Bonds, best to worst:1. Daniel Craig2. Sean Connery3. Roger Moore4. Timothy Dalton5. George Lazenby6. Pierce BrosnanAnd my top 5 movies:1. Casino Royale2. From Russia With Love3. Goldfinger4. License To Kill5. Quantum Of SolaceOn a sidenote - when I went to youtube to watch the trailer in HD, one of the recommendations on the side was the trailer for Taken 2 - I had no clue it was ready to come out yet!

Taken 2: First, they took his daughter... Then, they took her again. Judging by the trailer, they actually take Lenore this time. Basically, sounds like the Albanian mafia want revenge so they kidnap her when they're on a vacation in Istanbul. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
