It's interesting how this displays exactly my feelings about Bond. I have the feeling that Craig and Brosnan are just too much. They feel like some action movies with a character I don't care about (sure Craigs Bonds were better action movies then Brosnans but they've all not been Bond to me.). We don't have to talk about Lazenby and Dalton. Moore and Connery were just perfect. They've fitted perfectly in the flair the cold war had and they will always remain my Bonds. With style.

I also took "The Tailor of Panama" as the missing part of Brosnans Bonds.

I think Dalton was an excellent Bond, better than Connery or Moore. I find Moore and Brosnan to be ridiculous, whereas Dalton is suitably psycopathic and dark. I like Craig's take on Bond too, but the plot lines of the films are disappointing.

I agree that the most recent Bond films have felt like ridiculous action movies.

I actually thought Brosnan played a great Bond, but just suffered from a set of bad scripts. I only enjoyed GoldenEye. And as much as I enjoyed Casino Royale, I really wish they would've let Quentin Tarantino make it with Brosnan like he wanted to.

Golden Eye was special because it was the first Bond you really wanted to see after a decade and my first Bond in cinema. I went there with my father for the premiere at 0:07 so it left us with a special feeling. Looking at it today, I think it wasn't that good but it was not a Dalton for sure.

I think that a lot of the "Bond World" has a lot to do with Bond's team as a whole than simply Bond himself. That is, the interactions between M, Q, Felix, Miss Moneypenny et cetera.

> I have the feeling that Craig and Brosnan are just too much.

I know what you mean but I have to say I increasingly hated Brosnan's Bond movies and when he was captured, tortured and then went on in a ridiculous DC-Marvel-esque superhero tech-fight it was over for me - and "Casino Royale" was a MUCH welcome relief after that; really a "back to the roots" but set in a modern world, a modern James Bond with THE classic story. I really liked Daniel Craig's take on the character. Unfortunately then came "Quantum of Solace"; let's hope "Skyfall" will have a better story.

> We don't have to talk about Lazenby and Dalton. Moore and Connery were just perfect.

I could not agree with this more! I never cared much for the movies with Lazenby and Dalton; I hate to say it but they just looked silly.
