    Ah one of my all time favorite Bond characters. This is a tough one. I was leaning towards CR but the conversation between Mathis and Bond is just too good to pass up. My vote goes to Quantum of Solace.

    He was great in both but my vote goes to Quantum. He was a far more sympathetic, compassionate, charismatic character/actor than Craig's Bond in that film IMHO. We also saw a more vulnerable side to him that wasn't there in Royale.

    Quantum of Solace: As said previously, the villa and airplane scenes were really nice, and I like how Mathis seemed very excited to go on Bond's mission with him. I liked his deepened character in QoS.

    QOS. Mathis could have told Bond to p*** off.

    Damn you, Dimi. *shakes fist* Basing this on performance, I would have to go with Licence To Kill. Which isn't to say I think any less of his impressive debut in The Living Daylights.

    This is a tough one. TLD is my prefered movie of his two, but he really nails the vendetta obsessed Bond in LTK. The emotions he displays when finding the Leiters is some brilliant acting.
    If we could vote for both I would, but TLD still wins. Just.

    Hmm, tough one but I'd have to go with Kill. I like Dalton's reaction when Della playfully throws him the cloth-thing on her leg (if someone could tell me what it's actually called that would be great).
