@A1200

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.

@ggw

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!
