I still hold favor for Sean Connery as Bond. Really enjoyed those movies...

Most would agree Connery set the standard.

Ironically, the character's creator contempuously referred to him as "that snorting lorry driver" (Connery was a milkman before he went into acting).

Well, much of Hollywood got its start in that fashion...even Harrison Ford was a carpenter by trade, before stepping into the utopian wealth and world of Hollywood...

Bummer. I have the firm conviction that actors should leave their voices to the silver screen and not out in public.

But I thought that guy who looked like a Russian ballet dancer, forget his name, had been picked to replace Brosnan?

I thought so as well. This might be Judy Dench electioneering for Brosnan.

"Whew! I'm sooooooooooooooo relieved."

I could have tolerated ". . .soooooooooooooo relieved."
But adding that additional "o" is abolutely uncalled for.

They did an adaptation of Casino Royale' in 1955 or 1956 with Barry Nelson playing James Bond (also the answer to ''Who first portrayed Bond?'')

My version is "who was the second actor to play James Bond?"

I think that guy took himself out of the running.

Thank God!

I suppose Sean Connery must be too obvious, therefore it's not he. No idea.

That's the point. because Barry Nelson isn't known, it's "Roger Moore ,.. no, George Lazenby ... no, David Niven")
