SO WE COULD HAVE A PROPER FOLLOW UP TO OHMSS!!
So true - would have finished the story nicely - something DC and co did with their first two wubbish attempts of what they call Bond movies....pah.
That is the single biggest regret I have about the Bond franchise, incidently the second being Pierce Brosnan being appointed the 5th James Bond.
Though I am basing my answer on one memorable performance, Albert R. Broccoli is qouted as saying "Had Lazenby continued he would have surpassed Sean Connery" - I concur.
Lazenby - 3
Dalton - 11
TBH, a 2nd and 3rd Lazendby, followed closely with Moore, but a film in place of Moonraker, and then 3 Dalton films, Brosnan for 3, and then Craig as it stands. Oh and no Connery with DAF ot NSNA
I have to side with Dalton, and not just because he's my favorite Bond either, if for arguments sake the franchise had continued it's two yearly run then Tim in 1991 appearing again as 007 in that years release would of been a joy to watch, still a great pity we only saw the great man in two movies
Lazenby to a degree could well have worked at the advent of the 1970s but it's a case of what might have been, it's a shame George gets castigated by many for his one appearance but there are those that say he did a stellar job of it and I for one would of liked to hve seen him have another run out
If we are talking about end of Bond tenures then it's a No No to Connery, most definitely Moore and Brosnan too, Craig still has something left in him you would argue
My vote goes to Sean Connery, obviously. I mean, come on. I'm born in '82. Besides NSNA - and I was only 1 year old - I've never had the honour of experiencing a new Bond film with Connery as the lead.
