RIP Sean Connery, the best James Bond

Sad to hear my grandfather’s younger bro actually worked with him before he got into acting

Rip to the best bond and that killer Scottish accent

RIP Sean Connery.

I will watch one of his bond movies Sunday night as a tribute.

I've spent the last few days rewatching the old Bond films, Sean Connery was and always will be the best Bond.

I know the movies are mostly based off the books but wow what wasted potential with Dr No, kill him off after one movie, and the way he died was brutal.

Highly recommend this series if anyone has the time. I plowed through it in the car on the way to/from work.

Some great research & genuinely interesting takes.

Glad you are liking it mate!

The first couple of eps they are getting the format down but they have really put in the time to research some great behind the scenes info and both Matt and Graham have some great takes along the way.

Well worth the time and brings up some great memories of films I havent gone back to watch in years.

Going through my old Roger Moore collection this week has gotten me hooked on the Bond series again. I'm a massive Bond nerd and wanted to see if anybody else on here is the same!

What is your...

Favourite film? The Spy Who Loved Me
Least favourite film? Die Another Day
Favourite Bond? Roger Moore
Favourite villain? Max Zorin (Christopher Walken) in A View to a Kill

Favourite theme song? A View to a Kill - Duran Duran
Favourite death? Dario (Benicio Del Toro) in Licence to Kill
Most underrated film? Licence to Kill

Best action sequence? Truck chase at the end of Licence to Kill

Keen to see what the consensus is on a few of the above, if there is one!

Favourite film - From Russia with love
Least favourite film - Die another day
Favourite Bond - Connery
Favourite Villain - Mr White
Favourite Henchman - Donald ‘Red’ Grant (FRWL)
Favourite Bond girl - Fiona Volpe (Thunderball)
Favourite theme song - You know my name (Casino Royale)
Favourite death - Ed Killifer (Licence to kill) / The Dove getting kicked off the cliff (For your eyes only)
Most underrated film - Licence to kill
Most overrated film - Diamonds are forever
Best action sequence - Bond escaping the industrial laser (Goldfinger)
Favourite line - ‘He’s branched off’ (OHMSS)

A shout out to Izabella Scorupco. Absolute beauty in Goldeneye with that red hair. Looks awful blonde.

Fassbender and Lewis are both great actors. But are they quite handsome enough?

Bale would be epic but would he want to do it?

My pick. Played a great character in Broadchurch.

Under rated ???

campaigners rave about it , maybe it's under rated by me personally but i certainly wouldn't describe is under rated in general.


Diamond are Forever is way too high on peoples lists too , absolute trash.

Absolutely. Well played. Diamonds are forever is junk. Gets rated because of Connery but it’s a fizzer.

He's 45, way too old.

Need someone in their early-mid 30s to reboot the series and get a few movies out of them

I reckon he could go to 50. He has a young look.

Richard Madden is up there

When you put up his pic my first thought was that he looked too young
