Not the best Bond, but infinitely more enjoyable than…

I still feel bad for George Lazenby, he got run out of the Bond role as well as get2000ting some bad advice from his former agent. I feel he would have been a great James Bond if he had made more movies after his first Bond film. After first viewing OHMSS I was very suprised, I personally felt it was an excellent movie and George's acting was quite good. If anything Lazenby brought true action to the James Bond films, after all he was professionally trained in unarmed combat which only made him an even more belivable Bond as opposed to the others when in fighting and action sequences.

There all good except for daniel craig, casting him as bond has just destroyed the hole franchise for me, everyone else loves him, and good on ya. But to me he shows know sign of James Bond. and my god if there gonna keep him going for a few more films, sombody please buy him a comb, his hair is bugging the beep out of me, bond is not suppose to have messy hair like that. And please don't bring up the hole book argument, I don't care what bond was like in the book's its the movies I was interested in, and they have totally killed it for me.

I love OHMSS.
I also love Lazenby. The only good bonds were him, Connery and Moore. I don't like the others, alt238hough they seem to be back on track with the new guy. I do think Lazenby could have done more Bonds and been as "big" as Connery and Moore though. I watched a documentary about it which said he assumed he was only doing one because the social climate had changed so much and he assumed Bond was over. Then the studio kind of pre-empted him leaving and also wanted a scapegoat for the movie not being as massive as it could have been (even though it was a success), and they fired him. Everyone involved in that decision seems to regret it today, and look bac1c84k on him fondly and all say that he would have been a great Bond if he continued - perhaps even the best Bond!
So it's a great shame things didn't work out. -

The Bond actors in my opinion from best to worst.
- Sean Connery
- Daniel Craig
- George Lazenby
- Pierce Brosnan
- Roger Moore (although a few of his were great fun)
- Timothy Dalton

For me Lazenby was the worst bond he did ruin the movie, if Connery was in it he would of been fantastic, Diana Rigg was a great bond girl and telly savalas was a great baddy pitty the bond was lazenby
1.Sean Connery (Best Bond)
2.Roger Moore (Did The Best Films)
3.Pierce Brosnan (Goldeneye was Gr2000eat)
4.Daniel Craig (Still new to the role but needs more films to be judged)
5.Timothy Dalton (Was a good bond, just poor films)
6.George Lazenby (Only did 1 and you can see why, My dad went the pics to see all the original bonds and he was very disapointed with OHMSS especially Lazenby. -

- Connery (I echo what everyon238e's already said)
- Brosnan (I liked him, except he didn't seem tough enough)
- Lazenby (a believable fighter with class)
- Dalton (badass, but not elegance)
- Moore (nothing too good to say but at least he's not)
- Craig (who thinks he's Bourne. Seriously, when would Bond EVER say "The whole world knows you scratched my balls!" Can you think of any of these other guys saying that? No. The reason? They had class. This guy doesn't).

I think that Lazenby receives an undeserved bad rap because of OHMSS. The entire movie was dull, unengaging, and dreary. The plot was ridiculous, the locales boring, and the dialogue I would not wish on anyone.
OHMSS is one of the very best Bond films despite your personal hatred of it.

I happen to find OHMSS my favorite Bond film. George was as good a Bond as any. I don't feel sorry nor do I pity him. Of all Bonds, he is the most enigmatic because of his turning out only one film that is the best of all of them. Here's to you sir!

What kind of dumb argument is this. You don't like him because his hair is messy. Ah yeah because Bond is gonna be looking great when "he has to fight people, and avoid being killed all day". That kind of stupidity in movies might have been alright in the 60s, 70s, and early 80s. But its just ridiculous in today's world.
Next time you wanna be a troll. Do it with some skill and some form of thinking. This attempt was just flat out pathetic.
And everyone here knows that the real reason people like Craig. Is because he made Bond tough again. After four straight movies of seeing Brosnan smile like an idiot and make Bond look like a total wimp.
It had nothing to do with the book. Dalton already brought that Bond to the world with his portrayal. Brosnan ruined that work with his portrayal of Bond. Craig brought it back. -

Bond is not about being tough, its the package, hip, smart, suave, debonair. the last thing Craig is is debonair and suave, he looks like a brute in a tuxedo. Brosnan had the perfect look just not the acting chops.
The sooner Craig is dispensed with in this role the better
