My favourite Rog movie? You Only Live Twice.
Re: Best Roger Moore Bond
Toss-up between TSWLM and FYEO for me. It's a bit of an apples and oranges comparison really - the former is a big, epic Bond adventure, whereas the latter is more low-key, like a Terence Young film.

Re: Best Roger Moore Bond
Actually, I do like all the Bond movies until Craig comes into the picture! Favourite? I think Octopussy! Anyway, my ideal James Bond is someone (not Craig) and in his 50's!

The family has expanded in recent years. I'm now the proud Daddy to 2 beautiful girls. Would've liked a boy but there will certainly be no more additions to the Skywalker clan. Don't get much spare time nowadays as you can imagine, but I do try and keep up with the world of Bond.

Re: Best Roger Moore Bond
It was either LALD or FYEO. The rest are pretty much unwatchable.

Re: Best Roger Moore Bond
I've not seen the Blu-ray versions so I'm not sure what changes have been made. On the digitally remastered DVD's, some of the additional CGI usage was an improvement (background scenes) and others were pretty lamentable (Han/Greedo shooting scene).FormerBondFan wrote:Skywalker......nothing to do with Bond but what are your thoughts on latest changes for the Star Wars blu-ray?

Wonderful! Life doesn't get any better! Are they in the "did you see what I did?" phase yet? like when they eat their first solids or take a few steps they look back at you like did you seeeee that!The family has expanded in recent years.

Re: Best Roger Moore Bond
I like FYEO for the more serious Bond, but LALD for a combination of Moore playing the part with moore or less straight face, and the punchy rhythms of the script, locale, Solitaire, the many villains (Mr Big, Samedi, Tee Hee), the excellent use of the Bond theme, starting with "My name's Bond, James Bond ...." (which pitifully Pierce never got to say with the music). The score by George Martin tops, his into Harlem Bond theme a treat. Moore is lively, the stunts fun -- crocs, the speedboat chase (again with suave music). Guy Hamilton paces it all very well. Yes, I even like Sheriff Culpepper. The sequence with Mr Big having Bond's little pinkie in the clamps of Tee Hee is a classic, with everyone playing it straight with the great music. The one minus : they could have gotten a better actress for the 'Mrs. Bond' part

I agree with 'Skywalker' here (nice to see you back ).........LALD was a magic film. I remember my Dad taking me to see this film while on holiday in 1973..it was a very memorable experience.
