Roger Moore

I know there six actors that have played James Bond´s role: Sean Connery, George Lazenby, Roger Moore, Timothy Dalton, Pierce Brosnan and Daniel Craig.
But the “golden age” is starred by one of these two. Sean Connery or Roger Moore? Which one is your favourite? Why?
Tweet

Sean Connery looks more like the action hero James Bond is supposed to be.
Because Sean Connery IS and always will be, Bond. He is the flesh and blood embodiment of the literary James Bond Ian Flemming create.
Sean Connery “IS” James Bond. Every woman loves him. Men want to be him. He just ‘is’.
Connery can act. Moore played Bond with a silliness that would have Flemming rolling over! Connery forever.
he just started it all.
Style and posture.
Better actor.
Why? You are kidding me? Sean Connery is a superstar and regarded as one of the sexiest men alive. Roger Moore isn’t. Just watch goldfingrr then any Moore film. Roger Moore would fair better against Austin powers, whom he is more like. Bess him
I think Sean knew when and how to act serious and funny when needed in this role…Roger even though he was great in the role was mostly funny in the Bond films which were hard for me to see them as being classics.
He is total class in every way, and a hunk above all hunks!!
Slight edge. More masculine.
Sean Connery….he’s the ultimate badass….no one has such an awesome irish accent
Roger Moore is the Best , byt Connery is only Bond !!
007 sean connery rocks
Looks
He was very attractive and roger moore never gained the comedy aspect of james Bond which he made.
he’s the motherfucking man
Why?
I grew up watching Roger Moore so naturally I liked him more, a little eight year old watching Moon Racker. I loved Roger Moore. But when I went back and watched all of the movies I new for sure that Sean was a much better James Bond and actor. Now that I am more matured in my “cinema” wisdom I find that Sean Connery is much better and ever since I saw From Russia with Love I’ve liked him more too. I just wish he could have played James Bond in The Spy who Loved Me!!!
Why?
Very suave and sexy.
Why? There was no one who had the charasmatic presence on film like Sean Connery. His character would take you over and make you believe. He had what no other actor could ever quite achive. Brillience!
I prefer sean connery and pierce brosnan

Roger Moore is the best James Bond for me, primarily because he was my “first” James Bond. I watched him in A View to a Kill then searched for his others. I didn’t discover Connery until much later – but I’ll admit, he’s almost won me over now.

Roger Moore looks more like a British Spy.

Never cared much for this bond. I guess it was because he was the Bond to replace my beloved Sean Connery.
12-23-2008 | 7:02 pm
Roger Moore is the better bond without a doubt. I don’t know exactly what it is but he has connery beat hands down.

He brought a touch of humor to the character, He was witty, I thought he was the best.
4-9-2009 | 3:38 pm
funny

Funny and more gentlemanly

More humor. Best movies. Looked more like a gentleman and less like a bum.
8-25-2009 | 1:28 am
best looking best actor wittiest funniest longest lasting and on and on ad infinitum.
9-2-2009 | 9:28 am
you are the best james bond
9-14-2009 | 11:59 pm
he is a real english gentlemen. he is polite, calm, charming, cool, but also tough and in very good physical shape. connery is too much rough and tough, he is a bull, not a gentlemen. and one needs to be very stupid to even compare him with moore

Moore is the best out of the six b/c of something people believe is a weakness. I think b/c of his light and carefree demeanor, the character of 007 himself is underestimated frequently by key characters in ALL of the Moore films. Unlike all the other actors like Connery, Lazenby, Dalton, Brosnan, and Craig, where you can kind of see them coming as James Bond, Moore’s personality as 007 allows him to slip under-the-radar, and just adds on to the myth of JB.

more humour and stlye
10-9-2009 | 6:46 pm
Quite simply… he personified the total Bond package: brute, charm, wit, and above all sense of humor. A better more enjoyable Bond. I like Connery. But Roger Moore was/is STILL the best
Bond ever………….

Made the part his own when others felt the franchise should die with Connery. Plus he’s bloody English!!!
12-15-2009 | 8:30 pm
although a hard choice,I do prefer Roger Moore.He holds my intention much more.His films are not so heavy and he brings alot of charm to the role,. but he also uses his “license to kill when he has to”,.Everyone has their favorite bond film.Mine are Octopussy and From Russia with love.Moore really hit his stride with with” The spy who loved me”:

No-one else can wear a safari suit with the same degree of casualty as Sir Roger.
2-28-2010 | 5:51 am
Because he brings more life to the character, he’s more gentle. Sean connery is too grey…
4-25-2010 | 12:17 am
Because he’s the suavest, handsomest and driest of the James Bonds, and also the most identified with the role.
5-5-2010 | 5:53 am
First of all they’re both legends to me but i would go for Roger Moore because he’s a natural playboy he’s got lovely jokes and he just seems to be the one that comes closest to Ian Fleming’s original concept of James bond, remembering that one of Ian’s biggest inspirations for Bond was Prince Bernhard of the Netherlands.
5-8-2010 | 3:40 pm
He has more appeal as 007.I found him to hold my interest more,but it is really close .I will say Roger is my favorite Bond
6-1-2010 | 10:23 pm
He was magnetic and his Bond films are by and large far more watchable and entertaining. Connery was a great Bond, but Moore was pure escapism. Just what Bond should be.
6-4-2010 | 8:25 am
He portrayed Bond in a more humorous way and was more polished and more accessible to a wider audience. Connery had a cold portrayal of the character, was more of a womanizer
6-8-2010 | 11:48 am
Rpger Moore is the best , but Connery is the only BOND 007
7-28-2010 | 8:00 pm
i pick roger moore because he is funny and suits well with the chracter of james bond HE has style i like connery too but roger moore the best
9-19-2010 | 2:31 pm
Roger Moore wins hands down. I am reading a lot of silly reasons why Connery was the best & they are not consice answers. Roger used his wit, charm, sarcasm & cheekyness.
10-7-2010 | 1:36 am
Watch the Spy who loved me. He’s a real Brit.
11-22-2010 | 4:16 pm
As an actor, he knew his limitations and didn’t overplay the part of James Bond. The character and the 007 world is very ridiculous at times so to keep a tongue in cheek and do it as effectively as he did is important. Plus he had more style and charm.

Why?
the most elegant,suave and well spoken man on earth
3-24-2011 | 3:34 pm
roger moore is the best bond – he is cool, funny and a great ladies man – he is my idea of a Bond not Sean Connery who was way too serious and boring
10-1-2011 | 12:50 pm
Roger is no doubt my favorite Bond, for several reasons.
In addition to giving the character a very friendly, unlike his predecessor, Connery, who still love but too rough.
In his films, but also gave irony decision and beautiful action scenes with extreme elegance!! w moore !!!!!!!!!!

Instant descriptive words that hit me like a train when I think of Roggy as Bond: Witty, charming, humorous, sentimental, seductive, ruthless, smart, experienced, arrogant at times, british, a little misogynistic at times, serious and extremely attractive. Everything that bond should be. As well as this, Fleming actually asked for him to play the role where as Sean Connery only fit it after seeing his partner’s reaction to him. I found Moore exceptional to watch, in fight scens, love scenes, confrontational scenes, serious scenes and the light hearted scenes. Also, any blame Moore cops fromhis Bond films comicality is actually the script writers and directors fault.
Does a Roger Moore half-smile*
10-26-2011 | 3:35 am
Because he was a natural gentlemen not force like conery the brutt who tried to fit in to the role.

Id like to see how many people wouldve liked sean connery had he played bond second during the 70s with the over-the-top scripts like diamonds are forever which is considered to be connery’s weakest mgm bond movie (never say never again notwithstanding). Roger moore had to follow up the “original” bond by becoming the best bond. He was classy and funny. sean had the LUCK of getting scripts like goldfinger. When a no-name australian like lazenby can just step in and play bond in a good movie like “on her majesty’s secret service”, they basically could have got anyone to do it in the 60s with critical acclaim. Roger moore excelled while having to deal with the producers scratching for more ideas and responding to movies like star wars.
