although connery was the best (for now), no way you can say lazenby doesn't count (he was the second *official* bond, not the first, btw). at any rate, 'on her majesty's secret service' is a top 5 bond film, IMO.

i used to think the same about moore. i recently rewatched a lot of the moore bond films and i just can't take his portrayal anymore. way too hammy.

i liked dalton a lot. 'license to kill' was pretty good, and benecio del toro is pretty good in it as well. 'the living daylights' was pretty meh.

you're right, pierce WAS good, but the movies were horrible. the only exception being 'goldeneye'.

uuuuhhhh, you might wanna recheck that. 94% on rotten tomatoes.
i think most people who didn't like casino royale on some level were definitely in the minority.
fwiw, imo the top 5 bond films are:
dr. no casino royale from russia with love on her majesty's secret service goldfinger
