I've been a Bond fan since I was a young boy. I once owned all of the music sound tracks on 33 RPM vinyl.
I've read every one of the Ian Fleming Bond novels and even the later ones written by John Gardner. I've seen all of the movies several times.
Casino Royal was the best authentic Bond film of them all. Stayed very true to the novel. Daniel Craig was superb.
It's all about the writing and I hope that the future movies stay more realistic like Casino Royal but I feel the last two have already strayed some.
Connery was the classic Bond and always will be. The rest would have been better if Cubby Broccoli had the screen plays written better. Not the actor's faults.
I've always felt bad for Brosnan because I really think he got the shaft for having to play a Bond that was very much a cartoon fantasy character.
I'd love to see a rated "R" Bond movie directed by Tarrantino. That would be something.
