3. What's the beef with him?
I thought he was a pretty good pick.

2. Nope
I never saw what the big problem with him was--seemed like a good Bond to me.

4. No
I also like Timothy Dalton's Bond. I'm quite fond of him as an actor overall. He was quite dishy as Bond.

In fact, apart from the classic Sean Connery Bonds, the Tim Dalton ones are the only ones i can stand to watch.

5. You see, I totally agree with you.
ALthough I always that Moore was alright, I actually thought Brosnan was a bit obvious and a little overdone.

7. I thought Dalton could actually be an assassin
He had that rugged look to him. Roger Moore was too foppish and Pierce Brosnan always looked too perfect. Connery, of course, was the best.

And don't get me started on Woody Allen!

8. No, I liked Dalton's Bond.
I liked Roger Moore's Bond, and Pierce Brosnan's Bond, and I thought Sean Connery was a hack.

That's right: A HACK!!!!! :P

9. I liked Dalton as Bond as well...
..but then I liked George Lazenby too!! I thought Dalton was charismatic in a serious way and helped put new life into the series. Each actor has brought something unique to the role. The loss of Q really hurt the series though...

12. I liked him too -- ruthlessness and seriousness
Timothy Dalton's Bond meant business.

13. I actually like all the Bonds.
I've never understood the Connery preference despite him being the first.
