James Bond is not a complicated role.  It does not take acting ablitiy...just decent looks and a playboy attitude.\n\nRalph's talents would be wasted!

1. Sean Connery (the best)\n2. Pierce Brosnan (gorgeous and funny)\n3. Daniel Craig (haven't seen him in action yet but he's got the looks)\n4. Roger Moore (looked the part, but a bit stiff)\n5. Timothy Dalton (no sense of humor at all)\n6. George Lazenby (stiff, stiff, stiff)

it is far superior to anything preceding as far as the original stories are concerned. hair colour aside, daniel craig fits the description of james bond perfectly. he makes him human. he falls in love, makes mistakes, is seriously hurt and visibly distressed when vesper dies at the end, again more faithful to original stories where bond was often sick after killing or seeing people killed, and was frequently injured. the fight scenes and set pieces are gritty and believable (unlike the absurd 'windsurfing an arctic tidal wave' scene from die another day). although i am a huge fan of the other films, casino royale was a much needed breath of fresh air as the series was becoming repetitive and stale.

I agree.  Jason Statham would have been fantastic in the role, but I think Hollywood considers him a B-list actor, and they wanted someone who was a "serious" dramatic actor for Bond.\n\nToo bad.  I have seen the trailer for Casino Royale and, although it looks as if the movie has great action scenes, all I could think about was that Bond is supposed to be very handsome and Mr. Craig is ugly.  I'm sorry, but it's true. He has the face of a boxer who has been pounded mercilessly for years.\n\nI wish Statham had been given a chance.  He is handsome, looks intelligent, can definitely beat anyone to a pulp, and is able to emote tenderness when necessary.  He can rescue me any day of the week!\n\nI can't believe Brosnan was fired so we could get an ugly Bond.

Bond is suave and debonair. He has rugged yet handsome looks ,is sharp and quick witted and never gets flustered.  And he always gets the girl, not to mention foxy Moneypenny at home.  My hero.

I've thought that for years, bring back Blofeld or possibly his grown up child. \n\nNot every movie should feature Spectre, but it would be nice to bring them back for Bond to battle with.

I dunno, I think Tom Hanks is WAY overrated. I can't believe he got $70,000,000 for Forrest Gump. The best actor in the world is not worth that much and he is NOT the best actor in the world in my opinion. \nI think Ralph Fiennes would have been a much better choice.

It sounds like the FIRST version of "Casino Royale", a Bond spoof w/Niven and, amazingly, WOODY ALLEN as Bond's ne'er-do-well brother, a kind of nebish Dr. Evil! I'm not sure, though...Niven's quotes aren't exactly etched in my memory.

Sean Connery has been and always will be the only James Bond.  The original producers for the movies, Dr. No was the first if you don't count the Woody Allen farce of Casino Royale, wanted Roger Moore for the part because he had played a similar type of role ion "The Saint" on tv for some time.  However Ian Fleming, having seen Connery in the Disney film "Darby O'Gill and The Little People" thought he would be better for the part and of coarse became 007.  \nPierce Brosnan was the first choice to play Bond after Roger Moore retired from the role but contract obligations to "Remington Steele" would not allow him to assume the role at that time.\nThe worst James Bond by far was George Lazenby for "On Her Majesty's Secret Service."  More trivia, in 1984 Sean Connery appeared as James Bond in "Never Say Never Again," Roger Moore played the role in "View To A Kill," and in the TV movie "Return of the Man From UNCLE" George Lazenby ha d a Cameo in which he was driving an Astin Martin with the license number JB007. \n\nThe best Bond film is "Goldfinger" but most all of them have something memorable.  There have been classic villains and girls and amazing gadgets.  The formula of guns, girls and gadgets has been what has made the series so succesful over the years.

I think he's going to be great. From the photos and little footage available so far, Craig has the goods to be an excellent Bond, closer to the Ian Fleming novels. \n\nAudiences will have to leave their preconceptions of the movie-Bond at the door though, and many may not be open-minded enough to do that. I suspect that "Casino Royale" is going to be excellent.

My father, who's a dead ringer for Sean Connery, took me to see my first Bond movie in 1964 - the premiere of Goldfinger.  Sean will always be Bond first in my heart.\nRoger Moore was great as The Saint, but I thought he was too slick and shiny as Bond.\nGeorge "One Shot" Lazenby was good enough - there were some excellent action sequences in that flick.\nI liked Timothy Dalton except for his Burt Lancaster-esque laugh.\nAnd I certainly liked Brosnan - he was cool under fire.\nI haven't seen Daniel Craig yet but I'm looking forward to it.\nHow 'bout you?

I think they are Christopher S. Bond  and James M. Talent. Here's a link, I'm not sure I understand it though.

I am with you all the way!  I think he is a remarkable person, basically good.\nNo one is perfect and many Godly men have sinned as wrongly. Those are for God to judge and forgive.\n\nI will always go see anything he has involvement with, whether it be acting, writing, or directing. Not Braveheart, I just knew I couldn't take the intensity and emotion.

James Bond was created by author Ian Fleming and remains one of the most famous secret agents in modern fiction. \n\n\nBond is a cool, handsome, dangerous agent for British Intelligence; his code number, 007, indicates that he has a "license to kill" in the line of duty. Bond travels the globe and uses his wits, fighting skills and a grab-bag of high-tech gadgets to battle super-villains often bent on world domination. (The gadgets, which played only a small role in Fleming's early novels, became a Bond trademark in the movies.) A few of Bond's personal traits have become famous, including his preference for martinis made with vodka and "shaken, not stirred," his use of a Walther PPK handgun, and his habit of introducing himself as "Bond... James Bond." Fleming wrote about Bond in a series of novels that ran from 1953 to 1964, including Casino Royale (1953), From Russia With Love (1957) and Goldfinger (1959); later the series was carried on by authors John Gardner and Raymond Benson. The popular Bond movie series began with 1962's Dr. No and extended into the 21st century, with Bond played by a string of actors including Sean Connery and Roger Moore.
