Rank each actor's Bond film by tone

edited March 2013 in Bond Movies Posts: 136
One of the best things about the Bond Franchise is it's constant shift in tones. One film will have Roger Moore dressing like a clown, while another will have Timothy Dalton setting a man on fire. Anyway, on this thread, rank each actors by film from "darkest to lightest".
For me:

Connery:
* FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE
* DR. NO
* THUNDERBALL
* GOLDFINGER
* NEVER SAY NEVER AGAIN
* YOU ONLY LIVE TWICE
* DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER

Moore:
* THE SPY WHO LOVED ME
* FOR YOUR EYES ONLY
* LIVE AND LET DIE
* THE MAN WITH THE GOLDEN GUN
* A VIEW TO A KILL
* MOONRAKER
* OCTOPUSSY

Dalton:
* LICENCE TO KILL
* THE LIVING DAYLIGHTS

Brosnan:
* GOLDENEYE
* THE WORLD IS NOT ENOUGH
* TOMORROW NEVER DIES
* DIE ANOTHER DAY

Craig:
All of them are equal in tone, I think.

    I'll just do Brosnan and Craig :)

    Brosnan:
    * GOLDENEYE
    * THE WORLD IS NOT ENOUGH
    * TOMORROW NEVER DIES
    * DIE ANOTHER DAY

    Craig:
    * SKYFALL
    * CASINO ROYALE
    * QUANTUM OF SOLACE


    I say Skyfall as despite the gags I personally found in darker than QoS and Casino. Just the way it felt to me personally.
