    When I hear the immortal words "James Bond" I always see our current man DC at the end of CR, and then that theme roars in and goose bumps appear!! :-B

    Bond has been around for so long and though Connery was the original I have been around for all actor changes thru the years. So nowadays,

    For me: DANIEL CRAIG
  • Dalton. To me he is Fleming's Bond.

    I think of the current Bond, when Brosnan was Bond I thought of him, and now that Craig is, I always think of him.

    For me it's Pierce Bronsan. He has always been my favourite James Bond in the franchise. Pierce Bronsan was born to play James Bond.
  • I think of my least favorite Bond, Brosnan. Say whatever you like about him, he sure looked like James Bond should look. And he was the Bond of my childhood, and all my favorite video games had him on the cover, so his image grew on me.

    Are you in character, Elliot, or do you really mean that? ;)

    Everyone knows my favorite James Bond is Pierce Brosnan, but these days, when I hear 'James Bond,' I instantly think of Daniel Craig.

    I don't really know. I think of every 6 faces of Bond. But the main one is Brosnan.

    John Barry


    Oh, Bond actors? Sean Connery.

    When I'm in character, you'll notice it. That's my honest opinion.

    Pierce Brosnan was born to play James Bond 007 ! The whole look and facial expressions are his belonging, and that's a fact.

    But here it's just question of generations (60's will see Connery ; current fans Craig and some others Dalton, or even Moore of TSWLM)

    Pierce Brosnan is the actor I grew up watching 007's and I'm glad about it !

    But as I'm a real fan of Ian Fleming's character I picture actors in this order when the name is heard :

    1. Brosnan

    2. Connery "1 to 4"
    3. Dalton 87
    4. Moore 77

    5. Lazenby
    and Craig 2012 come later in my mind.

    In addition, from non-Bond actors (yet), I can also see Hugh Jackman and Michael Fassbender.

    Moore Is who I think of as Bond, Brosnan was the one I grew up in the earlier stages, and, Craig, because he is the Bond of my teenagehood, and a brilliant one at that.
  • Sean Connery

    Ursula Andress (coming out of the ocean)

    Timothy Dalton

    Ernst Stavro Blofeld, especially Donald Pleasance

    Monty Norman

    Albert Broccoli

    Ian Fleming

    Vodka Martini's

    Casinos

    Immaculately dressed

    (ok the last few mentioned were more 'what' than 'who' but I'm standing by it) They are just the first things that came to mind for 'when you hear the name James Bond'

    I agree with Saunders and GL. Sometimes it's Sean Connery and sometimes George Lazenby - but mostly it's an anonymous figure who is a combination of Connery and Lazenby in an evening suit and bow tie.
  • Lazenby was a decent Bond, but only had the one appearance, so doesn't always come to mind for the benefit of this thread title. If George had appeared in more releases, which is a pity in retrospect, he may have been worthy of an inclusion here, and also, On Her Majestys Secret Service is far from a favorite release of mine

    No, it has to be Sean Connery above all else, and maybe Dalton with it. I can't really add the other four actors into it for this

    Although Connery is my favorite Bond, my immediate vision when I hear the name is based on the silhouette on the front of the Ian Fleming paperbacks I used to get from the library. And when I try to imagine a more detailed face, it's somewhere between Dalton and Brosnan.
  • Connery.
  • A man in the shadows with a gun. Sometimes I can see his face and it's Sean.
