Could you give some thoughts about that? My personal life (dealing with family's teenager) got complicated just when he had his time as Bond. I never did see any of his, but 100% of all the ones before and about 80% of those after.
I'd been given the impression that his were vaguely tongue-in-cheek. Our family has never owned a TV, never got into renting movies for DVD, and by the time my wife starting with on-line access (with her series of 3 MacIntosh products and finally having speedy transfers) she was way more into other new-agish and historical things to look at.
Upshot was Roger Moore never got a viewing by me. So, your comments would be appreciated. _________________ ..effects of civilization upon...nature, the growing gap between what education was supposed to accomplish and what it consisted of, the national debt and...high taxes, the problem of the excess cost of medical care -- Philip Wylie, 1951 |

He did bring more humour to the role but the edge-of-your-seat anticipation when Bond was in a bit of a hole was still there. The stories were brilliant, the villains were as dreadful as ever and it was truly conceivable this guy was a secret agent. I have liked all the Bonds but growing up I remember Roger Moore much more than Sean Connery.
If I had to pick a favorite, I think it would have to be view to a kill. Mainly because Christopher Walken is the baddie. Awesome actor! _________________ Amiga A1200, 3.1 ROMs, Blizzard 1230 MKIV 64MB & FPU, 4GB DoM SSD, Workbench 3.1 |
