    During pre-production of Dalton's third Bond film The Probability of A Lay-off, he insisted on doing the gun barrel sequence for real. Hence no third film.

    Memories aren't
    the only things that
    should last a lifetime.

    By the time Dalton showed up
    at the Bond 17 script brainstorming session
    with a big revolver and wearing a badge
    the producers had already decided
    to go with James Bond Jr.

    Released from his contract to play James Bond,
    actor Timothy Dalton finally had the freedom to take on
    the vanity projects that really meant the most to him.

    Back in the 90s, the delay to BOND 17
    approached the epic pause from BOND 25 to 26
    and actor Timothy Dalton became
    understandably unhinged.

    Louisiana sheriff and
    Dalton doppelgänger Maynard Sanders III
    delighted in play-acting the actor's roles on duty
    to the consternation of his constituents.

    The honorary sheriffship from Lafayette Parish, Louisiana,
    quickly went to Dalton's head.

    Tim's smile soon disappeared as he looked at his audience and realised his stint as a Children's Party entertainer may have gone too far.

    In this scene from Daltonator 2: Retirement Day, the Daltonator (Timothy Dalton) has disguised himself as a sheriff in order to locate and assassinate his replacement as James Bond, actor Pierce Brosnan (Maxwell Caulfield). Here, we see him interrogating United Artists executive John Calley (Jim Belushi) regarding Brosnan's whereabouts.

    Dalton's non-Bond films shared lines with Brosnan Bond, like:

    "Don't blow it all at once."
    "The writing is on the wall."
    (Another character: "Along with the rest of him.")
    "Standard operating procedure. Boys with toys."
    "Well, that depends on your definition of safe sex."
    "Beg your pardon, forgot to knock."
    "Buy me a pint."
    "Where is she?!?"
    " Then let's start with what you do know."

    Remember the first rule of gunfighting ...
    Have a gun.

    Ideas pull the trigger, but instinct loads the gun.

    Okay, I think it's been enough. There were plenty of laughs (thanks everyone), but it's time to wrap it up before things turn nasssty.

    Honorable mention goes to @RichardTheBruce. Can't help but laugh when thinking of good ol' Maynard and his crazy Dalton impressions.

    And the winner is @Simon, who said it all with this witty caption.

    Well done, @Simon! You win two tickets to the next children's party to be held wherever you live (terms and conditions may apply).

    As a man without children, this feels deeply inappropriate :D

    To producer Barbara Broccoli’s credit,
    she did not greenlight all of Craig's ideas.

    An early SP story concept focused on
    James Bond's evil twin brother and his
    non-verbal forms of expression.

    (Scrapped only when Craig demanded
    double the pay for the double-role.)

    Short of the threatened slashing of wrists,
    Daniel Craig's other attempts at getting
    released from the Bond role also failed.

    Bond film paydays are always a joy.
