Here's the place for discussing music, plays, YouTube videos, and any other media that doesn't quite fit in the other sections of Harlequin Theatre.

Honestly I don't have a favorite, Connery is the first, which sort of set the mold, plus he is my favorite actor out of all of them.

Moore brought a different flavor, and some of his movies were pretty bad, and he kept playing the role too long (he was 57 or 58 in his final film "A View to a Kill"). But SOME of his were really good, and he did a good job with the scripts and plots he was given.

Timothy Dalton tends to get a lot of hate, but I think he did a fine job.

Brosnan is great, too. Goldeneye was great, and his others I didn't care for a whole lot, but he really has the "Bond look" or whatever.

Lazenby... well... he tried! ;)

And there was a rumor Orlando Bloom would be playing "young James Bond" in some sort of prequel. But I think that was dropped and Craig whatshisname that Bmuntz mentioned is doing that... in Casino Royale!

I like him though. (Lazenby.) He should have made more.

And is that the name of the next Bond movie? Casino Royale?

Yeah, I don't mind Lazenby really. They asked him to do more, and he turned them down... and his career has been non-existant ever since. :(

And yeah, the next Bond movie is "Casino Royale"! \:D/ (The first Bond book by Ian Fleming)

Indeed, could you imagine Robin Williams as Bond? :D
