The best of James Bond 007

[TM]

Well, Sean Connery was the first and set the tone for the rest. He is perhaps the best, but I rather like George Lazenby's presentation. lazenby was hard, but had a soft side, especially when Dianna Rigg got killed. If he wasn't such a jerk on the set, he could have done a few more 007 films. But he had odd ideas and demands, like Pink Floyd should do the sound track for On Her Majesties Secret Service. So he turned out to be too difficult to work with. As noted before, some people consider him to be too effeminate. The producers worried about that too and sent a hooker up to his room, which confirmed the opposite. As an aside, in the late 70's or early 80's I had to go to traffic school, which was at the High School in the Fairfax district of Los Angeles. Lazenby was also a "student". At the breaks he spent his time observing the girls on the athletic field with great appreciation.

Everyone seemed to want Pink Floyd to do soundtracks back in 1969. Stanley Kubrick wanted them to do the soundtrack for 2001. Luckily, he ultimately decided against it. Not that I don't like Floyd - I do - but I think the Strauss et al works better.

I just remembered that one of the deadliest hats (and first afaik) in cinema has got to be Oddjob's hat from goldfinger

The soundtrack is by far the best bit of 2001. Mind you, maybe if I listened to Pink Floyd and go stoned I might find it an easier film to sit through.

Hi

I have a feeling that if Pink had done all of the soundtracks that they were asked to do, they would have been "over" a lot sooner, or a lot more. Pink Floyd has a distinctive sound / attitude and you can only create so much of that.

Just my $0.02 and worth every cent.

And another chance to stake out your preference.

Roger Moore was a dreadful Bond, but by all accounts a lovely, lovely man...
