He truly personified James Bond. No one else comes even close. RIP 007.

[Billthedrill]

"Do you expect me to talk, Goldfinger?"

"Why no, Mr. Bond, I expect you do die. Fifty-six years from now."

RIP

Rats! You beat me to it!

Rest In Peace Sean.

Great actor. Will be missed.

Pluto TV has a 007 channel. Dr. No is showing now.

It is sad to see a lot of the great ones going up to heaven. At least we can view their work.

M:
...caused by eating too much red meat and white bread and too many dry martinis!

James Bond:
Then I shall cut out the white bread, sir.

Is it known who played Blofeld (not identified as such) in For Your Eyes Only?

[HotKat]

True, 90 is a good run. However, my parents are 90 and 92 and in good physical and mental health. Whenever I hear that someone under the age of 85 has died, I think, oh so young. 😉. Everything is relative.

[SaxxonWoods]

The best of the Bonds.

[Bernard]

Not only was he the best Bond, he had the benefit of the best material to work with; the best of the original Fleming novels. And the 1960's society filming about a Cold War Hero.

Roger Moore provided live-action cartoons, women became equal partners, and the series never recovered. Then the Fleming originals ran out, and now it's the same Hollywood that produces CGI stunts and thinks they are special effects.

Did you ever listen to the Laura Ingraham radio show? When she had an update about Senator Arlen Spector, she would play the clip of the villain saying SPECTER.

Oh look, I found it:

It looks like all the good ones are on that site.

Remember this on election night: Shaken, not stirred.

[TChad]

He played King Richard In "Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves" (1991). When Connery first appeared onscreen in the middle of the film, Kevin Costner effectively disappeared. Old hero out, new hero in. It was the most effective upstaging ever. That's star power.

RIP.

He was the voice of a dragon... Can’t remember the movie...

[nonsporting]

Connery was anti-gun, an enemy of the right to keep and bear arms. He was an actor, not a champion of freedom.

I’ll leave others to discuss his misogyny and the celebration of an exploitive sexual lifestyle his Bond character typified.

[BiteYourSelf]

So Blowfield finally got his way.

[BiteYourSelf]

Dragon Heart.

[AJFavish]

Take a look at “A Fine Madness” and “The Anderson Tapes”

[reg45]

Robert Rietty did the voice of Blofeld in For Your Eyes Only.

[Celtic Conservative]

Lay off the snark knucklehead. If the mods think they’re excessive they’ll remove them.

OK, then all the Blofelds are dead.
