I prefer to live in the make-believe. :) Now I feel bad because I look for the same stuff in the Bond flicks you, but I'm a guy. lol Going back to some of the other posts. Roger Moore wasn't one of my favorite Bonds, but he wasn't a bad 007 either. I mean he was the first actor I saw in a Bond flick. That was "For Your Eyes Only." He made some really great movies as Bond. He also made a couple of clunkers. I just preferred the style and attiude that Connery and some of the others brought to the role. I do think he was too old by the time of "A View to a Kill." It was time for him to have retired from his tenure. I would have liked to have seen if Timothy Dalton could have done anything differently with the mess that was "AVTAK." Of course the movie had problems besides Moore. I don't think Tanya Roberts was one of the better Bond girls. Neither was Grace Jones. She makes Medusa love like a supermodel. I do wish Lazenby had stayed on. "Diamonds Are Forever" is my least fav of the Connery Bond films. I don't think he should have come back. Plus this is during the time period that I think Connery was starting to look the worse. He didn't age well in his 40's.
