Sean Connery > Moore

Still Moore was decent in his own way.

The third Bond to pass away, but the best Bond by far. RIP.

3rd one?

Yeah; Barry Nelson and David Niven have passed away. Both played Bonds in Casino Royale movies, in 1954/1967 respectively.

Those are unofficial bond movies, So they don't count.

Hiw about you count what you want, i'll count what i want.

Take it up with EON productions, I'm not the one making the rules.

Why dont you take it up with them, as you're the one who gives a shit what they think.

Get back to me via PM when they decide my fate, as i'm not gonna spam this thread. 👆

Anyhow, RIP Sir Roger.

My parents divorced when I was 10. I remember going to my mom and stepdad's house every other weekend, and every other weekend a Bond movie accompanied my younger brother and myself. Also, the TBS/TNN/TNT Bond movie marathons were part of the definitive Christmas traditions at my house as much as family dinners, shopping, and opening gifts.

Since Sir Roger Moore had over a third (at the time) of the Bond movie catalog, I always seemed to catch one of his (or sometimes Connery's) films. Whether it was one of the franchise's best in the The Spy Who Loved Me, an over-the-top action romp in Octopussy, or even one of the low points in A View to A Kill, Moore always delivered as 007 with effortless suave.

Man, I relish those times with my parents and younger brother: no matter what, you know Moore was the superspy who was gonna save the world at the end of the day.

He and Craig are at the top of my list of Bond actors. Praying for the Roger Moore family during this time.

"Nobody does it better" indeed.

One of my idols! say goodbye 🙁
