What boils my piss is that it's half people who want Elba to get the part because they like him (which I don't mind, we all have an opinion) and the other half is SJW's wanting Elba because EQUALITEH #DISIZME Fuck teh system

It doesn't matter anyway. The franchise is already dead. Fucking Daniel Craig and the new films aren't 007, they are English Bourne films.

For me, Craig did well to bring it from the ashes of the early 00's but yeah. Wouldn't be surprised to see it dip again. 

Well the films were successes but I prefer my Bond films with a little cheese. They are too serious and I think Daniel Craig is fucking goofy looking with those elephant ears and blond receding hair. 

Which ones are your favs? And who is your fav Bond?

I think From Russia With Love is my favourtie film.

Roger Moore and Sean Connery were my favourite Bonds. Didn't like Timothy Dalton or George Lazenby. 

Film - Thunderball, Live and Let Die, Dr No are probably my favourites.

I do enjoy the more recent films because of the greater use of technology and gadgets etc but it's not a patch on the older films.

Man with the Golden Guy - Best Film and Song in the series

Sean Connery is the best Bond, with Roger slightly behind him. Lazenby and Dalton were a disgrace.

Lazenby and Dalton were perfectly fine! It's popular to hate on them but time has been kind and their films are finally being seen for how good they actually are.

Dalton was meh, Lazenby was in the worst Bond Film ever.

That is impossible when all the Craig films exist.

Naw, I don't mind them too much. Casino was pretty bad, but Spectre was a good film. You just have to understand that they are a lot darker than what we grew up on.

They are fine films but they are bad 007 films. Dalton did a better Craig than Craig.

No ones plays Craig better than Craig. 

Dalton's Licence to Kill was edgy, gritty, and dark nearly 20 years before Casino Royale did and it did it better on a slashed b-movie budget.

I probably need to re-watch it, because I don't remember that being dark at all.

It's no masterpiece but it blew me away when I was a kid. I'd never seen Bond so violent. It's a revenge film about Bond trying to assassinate a drug lord.

Yeah I remember, he is avenging his wife no? I just don't remember all the details. I need my girl to grow up so that we can watch, and enjoy them together.

Nah, you are thinking of the Lazenby one (which is underrated as well). His friend is tortured to death in this one.

Oh, and the books are trash. I read the original books which started the James Bond series, and I can't see how filmmakers read that and made it into one of the greatest franchises in movie history. 

I heard that Bond has no personality and goes off on violent rants about how much he hates women and how superior British engineering is to the rest of the world. xD

The Spy Who Loved Me is my favourite, GoldenEye is alongside it too although that's because it's the Bond from my childhood. 

Pierce Brosnan was class in GE but shit in everything else. Sean Connery and Roger Moore were brilliant.

Spectre was the last one. 

You mean Skyfall?

Ah yeah Skyfall, Spectre was the inspector gadget style one wasn't it?

I was never that keen on Roger Moore especially after Sean Connery but he still very much owned it... He was good in the Saint back in the day though.. 

The Spy Who Loved Me opening sequence has to be my favourite one... 

Live and Let Die was another good one with Moore....

I’ve never seen a second of any James Bond film. 

All just a bit of daft fun really especially the earlier films..  "but James I need you, So does England" all that kind of stuff... No matter what the situation, danger or foe he would always find a way out of it and end up with the girl... 

"Do you expect me to talk? No Mr Bond I expect you to die!!" only for him to talk his way out of it and save the day... Grew up on James Bond..

James Bond is a fictional character that has been played by people of different height, weight, hair colour and even nationality. 

Idris Elba is a world class actor and it’s no surprise he’s linked to the role.
