Well if he worked for intelligence, he's probably a lot more boring and lives on a whimpey estate with a typewriter, but jokes aside - yes he was undoubtably the best Bond
@@joegrimes9232well it’s funny you would mention that because in moonraker it’s revealed that when he’s not on an assignment he actually is stuck at the office reading files and paperwork
Dalton is my favorite by a large margin. His portrayal and his films stand the test of time. Dalton’s Bond is timeless. All the rest are time capsules.
Dalton not just a pretty face, he is a superb actor and a highly intelligent man. I'll bet he was a good student a school. Can't understand how he escaped some woman's permanent clutches. He played some of the most famous characters in classical English literature and to this day I have NEVER seen any actor deliver a better performance in the same role. A truly talented man who in my opinion didn't receive the real recognition he deserved. Looking at him here he is also clearly a humble man, why would he say "Jesus Christ I'm terrified". Why is it the true greats, are not aware of their own greatness. Elvis Presley was like that too. Thank you for this video......Dalton ... A mega talent who graced us by both stage and screen. Thank you, Timothy Dalton, for your marvellous body of work.
In my view Timothy Dalton is the best James bond.watch his performance then read ian Flemings books.he was the bond that Fleming wrote.a great actor who brought real emotion to bond.very much ahead of his time.
Roger Moore is my favorite and maybe most humorous bond ever, Moore's was most comic about bond, other aren't so, in my angle, Roger Moore is best bond ever.
King Diamond Moore started off fine, peaked with Spy Who Loved Me, and then got too long in the tooth with the camp and the puns. Dalton was a breath of fresh air and ten times more realistic.
My favourite Bond. From a purely nostalgic point of view, he was my first foray into the world of 007. But also because he brought Bond back to the old school, because as much as Roger Moore was fantastic in the role, Moore had interpreted the role much differently, and strayed away from the books. He also was completely different from Sean Connery's hard edged interpretation. But Dalton was not only underrated, but one of the very best too. He should have made more films into the early 1990's, had it not been for the contractual problems for MGM. A great shame, but what we have is two great cinematic roles that he participated in.
It's fascinating to look back his performance in his two movies, because its very similar to where we are with Daniel Craig in the role. Now everyone loves that interpretation of that character. It will be interesting to see where the character goes next.
Good grief does this man know how unbelievably good looking he is? He just rocks up looking so suave and smooth! I would seriously swoon if he walked up to me and gave me a kiss on the cheek.
Everyone always gets the wrong impression by the fact he did 2 but he would have done 5 if he hadn't been hamstrung by writers strikes and mgm legal battles. He WAS bond for me. Kenneth brannagh would have been a superb bond too if he had been approached. But now, Michael fassbender for me would be a perfect successor to Daniel craig
Respect to Tim, a great actor and he did lend it his own thing and he fully committed. He was highly credible and in going to the source material he made it as true as he could. Fair play.
@@Anthonycheesman33 I've heard that budget restrictions were put on Licence to Kill as the producers were still paying off the intrest on the Moonraker overspend.
Exactly. Look at the budgets on all of Craigs films, 100 million dollars minimum spend. Think both of Dalton's were only 50 million combined budget of the two.
I can say yes, we were because coming off of and no disrespect to Roger Moore, but come on when you really got a think about it. His movies are like the MCU of marvel really guess what that went to but with Timothy Dalton he was a fan of James Bond he read the books, educated himself on the lore of what makes bond who he is and he delivered it. It’s just sad in the 80s that the viewers did not see what he was trying to do and he’s two movies to me are a real 💎 and I love them and I loved the ballot to those two movies. They were awesome too and it just made me sad when he walked away because at the end of the day he wasbond not Pierce Brosnan. and Daniel Craig give me a break. His was just stay paste post. Repeat in the way his character ended was horrible in my opinion, and very disrespectful to the lore of what bond was.
I think they all are great bonds, none isn't better, it's actually impossible say what is best bond, there isn't best exist, all are greats, goes fifty fifty.
And I agree, and he didn’t even look like bond. He look like a glorified bouncer that is checking your ID in front of a strip club give me a break, and he’s not even that attractive when I saw him in casino royale I literally almost puked, and I almost left because that’s how disgusted I was in disrespected as a bond fan
His mannerisms and gracious and style are so far removed from the way men behave now that if he were to appear in this state waliking in a median traffic would literally stop.
This wasn't a good version of Bond. Terrible clothing and almost freaking out due to the stress at 1:02 followed by a fake laugh. That was essentially his take on Bond...
