Best James Bond

Sean Connery, of course. Remember, though, that Connery played Bond in "You Only Live Twice," in which the task of writing the screenplay was handed to Roald Dahl, who discarded the novel and wrote a screenplay that you'd expect from the author of "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory." "You Only Live Twice" gave rise to Silly Bond, and those who ran the Bond franchise decided to capitalize on Silly Bond by giving us Roger Moore as Bond.

Extra credit goes to Timothy Dalton, who read the novels.
1. Sean Connery
2. Daniel Craig
3. Pierce Brosnan

(never saw the ones between the 60s-90s)
Daniel Craig was my favorite. His movies were much less about being a superman type figure and banging anything with two legs, and more about the art and drama.

LOL! I thought you were joking. That's pretty funny.

Sean Connery and Daniel Craig would be my favorites, i.e., I'd possibly watch their movies again if they were on TV.

I was just saying that Daniel Craig's films were more like a well done modern thriller, while the older films play like a superman comic.

True, but I wouldn't use the term 'art' to describe well done modern thrillers.
