Moore was my least favorite Bond, but For Your Eyes Only was perhaps his best Bond film.

Roger Moore sucked, with him the Bond movies reached epic clown proportions, and Bond became a smarmy know it all.

Moore did not suck. Even with a script like Moonraker, Moore did a fantastic job. Was not my favorite Bond, but he did it with professionalism and class. The current Bond could never hold a candle to Moore.

He was the oldest Bond actor, taking over when he was 45.

I saw Moonraker not so long ago, and even as unrealistic as it was, it was done much better than Skyfall.

I think Pierce Brosnan was the best post Connery James Bond.
As a side note, they say there canot be a black James Bond. Well Felix wasn’t black and M wasn’t a woman. Who cares?

Moonraker had so many problems but a great title song.

The actor Sir Roger Moore has accepted undisclosed libel damages over claims that he groped a woman while shooting James Bond film For Your Eyes Only. Just read this sentence again, picture in your mind this or any Roger Moore Bond film, and think how silly, how unreal this sounds.
To: Perdogg
I thought Moore was best as “The Saint.”
Not so hot as a “Maverick.” As Beau Maverick, I found him a bit too flippant.
Glad he won his suit.
