Favorite James Bond movie? Favorite Bond/Bond Girl?

[luvmysuper]

People may trash Moore, but he did make 7 very successful movies as Bond.

I think most who don't care for Moore as Bond are because of the relative campiness of his films (not his fault) and his age.
He is on record as having said that as Bond, he couldn't be the cold blooded killer type so he always played it as a joke.
Some of the later films with women who could have been his grand daughter were a little creepy (but again, not his fault).

I don't think it's really fair to bash Moore for campiness when Diamonds are Forever and You Only Live Twice exist.

I don't think it's entirely the fault of Moore. Writers and directors are primarily to blame.

True. I have seen some of his early Saint episodes. There are multiple moments where Moore truly projected that steel-eyed dangerous demeanor. It was mostly that the films had become more campy and jokey by 1973, and that lasted until Dalton's refreshing take in Living Daylights.

The Saint is a really terrific series. I enjoyed every single one I've seen.

I vote Auger too

 

[musicman1951]

My favorite is Skyfall. As for favorite Bond girl I'm happy with every one. Olga Kurylenko was very good in Quantum of Solace.

 

[Swingboy8]

I vote Auger too

A nice choice, sir ! She had that je-ne-sais-quoi...

Mr. Connery, i absolutely love almost every performance you did in your actor career. But sometimes, i don't know why, you had a knack for getting on my nerves...

He even got Maude Adams to sign on twice! That's gotta count for something.

All you James Bond fans, did you know there is a conspiracy theory that the Sean Connery character in the movie The Rock was really James Bond. British national, caught spying in the U.S. British government totally disavows him. Caught at Canadian border after stealing some microfilm from the FBI and never reveals it's location. Think about it.

For me: Sean Connery, Ursula Andress, and Eunice Grayson in Dr No

I have the two states of the first edition of Dr No, an original 1962 one sheet poster, and two £100 and one £50 plaques that were on the table in the Le Cercle casino scene when James Bond plays Chemin de Fer against Sylvia Trench.
