Anyone else feel that Pierce Brosnan was the ultimate James Bond that encompassed all the previous ones into one definitive performance?
He had it all - the suave, the charm, the rogue factor, the puns and quips and he looked more like the character than anyone else. You could put him in any other Bond movie and he'd fit.

No. He was a sexist, misogynist dinosaur.
That's exactly why he's the best.
He wasn't sexist or misogynist at all though, which makes M's accusation seem quite strange and fourth wall breaking
>woman twice your age calls you a dinosaur
>sexist, misogynist dinosaur.
Yes.
*Sips burbon*
I am.
*Get up and walks calmly over to M and slaps her across the face. When leaps to her face in shocked anger but notices a deadly looking black spider pinched in Bond's fingers which he eyes with a bored yet amused smile.*
Yangtze Black Widow. Western edge, by the markings. Tsk tsk tsk, the Chinese, you'd think they'd have something a little more...modern...by now.
*Bond squeezes and a splatter of gears and oil sprays from the "spider" across M's face.*
Ah! My mistake! Well, if you'll excuse me, it looks like this dinosaur has a first class flight to Beijing to catch. Good day M.
*Cut to credits song which are cute women in cavemen fur bikinis and dinosaur costumes dancing around*
DINOSAUR!! He stomps through the fields... CAVEMAN!! But he knows how you...FEEEEELLLLLL!!! HUNTER!! He stalks you like prey... But when push comes to shooooovvvvve - misogynist, saves the daaaayyyyyy!
Pooped your adult diaper again, Judy?
no he did good in focussing on doing his job as a legal killer but he never truly seemed to enjoy himself. i mean look at your pic op.
that's not the pic of a man who likes his job.
Untrue and you should rewatch his movies. Go to 2:16.
and these clips
i have rewatched all of his movies last month.
i think you should rewatch remington steele seasons 1 to 4
He came off as greasy and slightly zesty. Moore is the ultimate Bond.
Hell no, he's like a one-dimensional cartoon version of Bond. He spends more time mowing down bad guys like Rambo than doing actual James Bond shit, he's way too nice to women, lacks Bond's snobbish and arrogant qualities, and the writing in his films was simply subpar. He's far better than Craig but who wasn't?
>he's way too nice to women
Oh you mean he kills the villainess who's trying to cause a nuclear disaster? and looks like he could cry any moment while doing it? What a jerk!
>I never miss.
It was a cold blooded moment, especially because of what he had with Elektra.
I am planning to, not like there's anything else to watch. I am salty he didn't get the Bond role in 1986. I like Dalton but it feels like TLD was written for Brosnan.
even with brosnan the bond in TD would have been too sentimental. sentimentality is a liability in bond's field and it turns bond into a generic action hero. bad move by the writers.
>It was a cold blooded moment
lol no it wasn't, Bond was clearly hiding his emotions
>hottest bond girl is also the hottest villain
kino
Daniel Craig > Pierce Brosnan
>muh BO numbers
NPC alert.
why would you compare a non-bond actor with pierce brosnan tho
This scene alone makes him n1.
[Remove]
>What the hell is he doing?
>His job

He probably could have been the best.
Unfortunately he was given one great film and then many years of utter shit.
Imagine if he got the role in 1987 and NCB fricked off and we got John Glen/prime RM-era Pierce Brosnan Bondkino. I'd sell my soul for this.
He is a better Bond in noble House.
His bond is too homosexual.
I swear, he was born to be James Bond and I don't say this at all for any other actor or role. Look at this guy. He's the archetype of Bond given flesh and blood. Absolutely incredible.
remington steele season 2 begins with a two-parter in acapulco iirc. that's the closest to it we'll ever get.
Barbara fricked over his era, he even said his Bond was written too soft and the sexual element was downplayed as frick (except the one and only sex scene in Bond movies in DAD with Halle Berry). He got fricked over massively by Barbara despite being globally beloved and everything with him as Bond selling like the cure to cancer. Frick her, she deprived us of the greatest James Bond of all time. I still miss Piercekino.
A View To A Kill with prime Brosnan and Walken facing off would be the best Bond movie ever made.
he stinks and i dont like him

Him and Roger Moore, best Bonds.
>you are le sexist misogynist thug even doe your Bond hasn't even had time to do sexist misogynist thug things yet
That one scene never made sense. Craig's Bond made a huge scandal and broke into her apartment and got less shit for it in Casino.
He was good but not quite lethal enough to be the ultimate Bond. That honor will always go to Connery.
Yeah I kind of agree. I think he is the "archetypal Bond", the Bond that our collective unconscious would construct if we all put our heads together and psychically manifested "007".
That said I gravitate towards Connery's films more and find them more personally influential and memorable, but really the entire panoply of Bond films is quite enjoyable, until that potatoheaded socialist mick ruined it all.
>potatoheaded socialist mick
this, he destroyed the most consistent media franchise in human history. the last movie lost a 100 million, the first Bond movie to fail at the box office. Bond is ruined forever. It ended with DAD, that was the last we saw of James Bond. Pierce fits into every Bond movie, you could put him in Licence to Kill or Moonraker and he'd be naturally fit for both. It's insane how wasted he was.
I think it's difficult to truly compare the Bond actors because of the writing.
Connery's bond was the ultimate investigator, he found shit out, he used disguises and connections to discover things.
Moore's bond was confrontational and brash, because OF COURSE I'm a british agent and I'm here to stop you.
Dalton's Bond was far more emotional and driven by revenge or anger.
Brosnan's Bond was an infiltrator and a fighter, much more an assassin than an intelligence gathering agent.
Then with Craig they went all over the fricking place and tried to make him a bit of everything, and it just didn't work.
The approach was to make him Jason Bourne but British and it worked by Quantum of Solace, you were beginning to accept it and then in Skyfall, they put him into classic Bond scenes and stuff and he stuck out like a moron. Watch this scene, casino, tuxedo, girl asking his name, it's all iconic Bond but the guy supposed to be Bond looks like an Albino Russian goon. What an utter disaster.
QoS spends the entire film sucking communism's dick. Every copy of that film needs to be burned in a pyre.
Hmmm you are right but Camille was very hot but in typical Craig homosexual fashion, he didn't frick her.
I liked George Lazenby. Where my Lazenby bros at?
I like him, he wasn't amazing or anything but he's not as bad as he's memed to be. He looks the part and it's a well-written, superbly directed Bond film. My only issue with OHMSS is the silly dubbing when he's undercover
True but I still would choose Connery or Dalton over him, even Moore. I'm glad he had a moment of pure insanity and turned down the 7-film deal.
>His agent tells him Bond is a fad and the franchise will be dead soon
lol
He was a dumb peasant car salesman so of course he listened to his mate than common sense. Has to be the worst decision a human has ever made.
Shit bond in a decent movie, the literal opposite of Brosnan
GoldenEye is 10/10, so are his last two for me personally. Enjoyable as frick. The only one I don't like is TND (lol) because no hot girls or exotic locations though a great villain.
not my personal favorite (that's moore) but i'd concede that he had it all. cheers brosnanchad
Now those gentlemen ARE James Bond.
daniel craig's bond was fricking baffling how did they ever choose him? i swear to god his accent/voice changes every other scene
the head of the studio making bond is a woman who knows nothing about bond or movies, she's like kathleen kennedy. she picked him because he slept with her.
