    Great video. I do wish the series would get new transfers The Lowery versions are quite out of date, and I've always found the color timing on some of them lacking.

    The Lowery versions haven’t been used since the late 2000s when the series debuted on blu-ray.

    When the 4K versions premiered on streaming they were brand new transfers, not the Lowry transfers.

    Has there been a physical media release with new transfers? That I'd gladly double dip for. Eventually I'll get a 4K player.

    My enduring hope is that when the 4K Boxset is finally released we get a roundtable of the 4 remaining actors, while they're all still with us, just chatting about they're experiences playing the character. They could make it a featurette and call it "four non bonds".

    I'm too much of a pessimist to believe something that cool would ever happen but I'd certainly rush to watch it if it did.

    It’s a shame Connery’s stubbornness prevented all six from ever appearing altogether.

    It is. However, I heard that GL and PB don't get along for unknown reasons. Some quotes from IMDB have me wondering. Maybe PB is jealous that GL got the role of Bond for all the wrong reasons right away.

    [on GoldenEye (1995)] If Pierce Brosnan walked into a room, I doubt anyone would look up. But this is the '90s and women want a different man, a man who shows his feminine side. Pierce definitely has that.

    [on former James Bond George Lazenby] George is just an angry, old, pissed-off guy. He was never an actor, but some pissed-off Aussie who doesn't know how to show his feminine side. I met him, and he's got that kind of brittle edge to him.

    I don't know who insulted who first.

    For what it's worth Lazenby was there for the DAD event along with Moore and Dalton. That's as close as we ever got to having all Bonds together. Again, Connery was absent, and that was before his retirement.

    The time to have done it would've been the Skyfall premiere and the 50th anniversary.

    Imagine having all six Bond lined up there in front of the gold 007 logo. It would have been a picture and moment for history. But alas, didnt happen.

    Plus Pierce for the BAFTA tribute. Just imagine Parky is Sean.
