Poll question: Who is your favorite actor who played James Bond?
Ok, Favorite Bond?

(not including all the fake Bonds from Casino Royale).

8. So did I, but I was sent here from the Lazenby blog.
(Sorry, that's my little running joke)

It's Lazenby, not 'Lazerby'.

15. oops my apologies
and I think his film, "On her Majesty's Secret Service" may be the best of the series. But overall I think Connery is the best.

5. What's with the Lazenby votes?
A poll that is too obvious, with a result preordained, will always draw a few iconoclasts, I guess. Obviously, the winner first looked at us from a baccarat table in "Dr. No." "Bond. James Bond."

12. Where's Peter Sellers?

I refer, of course, to "Casino Royale," the poorly conceived and executed James Bond "parody" from 1967. With five different directors, "CR" was living proof that too many cooks do, indeed, spoil the soup!

13. Sellars was one of the Bond Decoys
Niven was the real Bond. He had to come out of retirement.

17. Timothy Dalton
Dalton is by far the best actor to have played Bond. Connery is fun, but he's no actor. Moore was embarrasing. But I really enjoy Dalton's two films, and he's proven in his other work that he can really act.
