faraway saint Posted May 23, 2017 Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 Awww, shame. 89, not a bad innings. Thought he was good as James Bond, bringing humour and his own style. RIP sir, a true gentleman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pozbaird Posted May 23, 2017 Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 RIP. As a huge Bond fan, can I say thanks for Live and Let Die, and for being the right man for the job at that time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bud the Baker Posted May 23, 2017 Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 (edited) My favourite RM role and one that showed he could act a bit was the doppelgänger role in The Man Who Haunted Himself. Astounded to see the lowly rating of 6.4 on IMDB. Edited May 23, 2017 by Bud the Baker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a cast, and a true story too........... http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0081470/?ref_=nm_flmg_dr_9 Are the actors deliberately misidentified?

branniganm Posted May 23, 2017 Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 RIP Sir Roger. But as far as who was the best Bond, it will always be 'Shank you Mish Moneypenny'. Discuss ..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Discuss ..... Daniel Craig is excellent, and Spectre is fantastic.... IMHO. However, you cannot beat the Connery movies. Suppose it all depends on your age really. Looking back at some of the Dalton ones, they were quite gritty. Moore played it for fun, Brosnan had his moments, and the Lazenby movie is a very good film. Connery for me though - my favourite being 'You Only Live Twice'. The theme, the glamourous far-flung locations, the volcano set, the Ninjas, the gadgets, the cool Toyota....
