With my favorite film being, "Goldfinger" to me that movie is everything a James Bond movie should be. The opening song, the women, the gadgets, Odd Job; just everything about that movie was amazing. Feel free to disagree because I like the majority of the James Bond movies. But, thank you for your time :)

Connery was nothing more than just ok as Bond. I'd have to pick Dalton in The Living Daylights, a latter day cold war romantic spy thriller. Licene To Kill comes in at #2.

The briefase is considered a gadget, otherwise it would be just a normal briefcase and nothing more. But the gadgets doesn't stop FRWL & TLD from being Spy Thrillers. IMO, anyway.

Licence To Kill, for me, was a good revenge drama and the action fast paced.

Now everyone always pics Connery or Moore, but the closest actor to ever come to the image created by Ian Fleming was Sir David Niven. I know he wasnt in the Mainsteam MGM/UA movies and that version was a spoof, bhut the fact remains, his dignity and character portrayed Bond. If we are talking about mainstream franchise films, then Timothy Dalton comes the closest.
My favourite is Daniel Craig. The character he portrays doesnt adhere to the formula, but the intelligence behind him is Bond, Only taken into the 21st century. "Will that be shaken or stirred?" "Do I look like I give a damn"
Yeah ok rant over Long Live Eon Productions

Bond is the flashy, daring, devil-may-care, sexy stud in the tuxedo and center of attention in the casino. He is bedding babes and disposing of evil-doers with equal ease.
Connery will forever own that role.
