"Timothy Dalton"

The Living Daylights on tonight at 8:30. Forgotten which channel, probably ITV. Whatever Licence To Kill was on last week.

Point of this post being = Does anyone else think Dalton wasn't that bad? Probably just me, but I preferred him to camp-o Moore. Obviously not as good as Connery or Brosnan, but still good.

Also, picture all of the gadgets that could be linked. Pogo-Stilt-Bond...

Wait, that's just Inspector Gadget.




Damn.

I thought he was a bit of a ponce in Layer Cake. A total push over. He won't make a very good James Blonde, sorry, James Bond.

To be honest I thought Tim D was the best Bond. Just like the next guy I've seen them all. For some reason I prefer him to the others. Possibly that frantic face he can pull so well.

Egads, you're right. Him and Dalton are already linked irreversibly in film history.

I have failed the Bearded One.

Aren't you forgetting someone?
tutututut

daniel craig does look quite cool especially in layer cake,however i'm not overly sure about him as bond, especially a lighter hearted one. he doesn't have the typical bond image, but maybe he does have a fair level of presence.

Nah, he's that guy who did Kate Moss, he'd be rubbish.

I reckon it should be Danny DeVito on stilts.

Yeah, that's the order. Bang on.

And, while we're on the subject, Daniel Craig is rumoured to have been offered a contract for five Bond films.

He was in Layer Cake and Enduring Love.

Dalton was dead on. I preferred him to Moore.

Order (Top being greatest, bottom being bootlicker)

Connery
Brosnan
Dalton
Moore
Lazenby
