Well considering he's become somewhat of a cult figure in pop culture, I think he is deserving of a thread in his honour.
I've been a fan of the James Bond movies since I was just a kid, and have always loved Bond's unfailing ability to save the day in that super-suave manner. Even if the new Bond movies are a departure from the original Bond formal perfected by Goldfinger (my personal favorite), they still bring something new to the prolific series by returning him to his roots in Ian Fleming's novels. Connery is personally my favorite Bond, but I have a soft spot for the slap-stick that is the Moore Bond, and I appreciate the dark qualities of Craig's Bond, even if Dalton did do that first.
Discuss: What is your favorite Bond film and why? Do you prefer Connery, Lazenby, Moore, Dalton, Brosnan or Craig as Bond and why? And for those who like a deeper discussion: What are you views on his politics? What do you think Bond stands for? Is he truly a hero or is no better than the villains he fights? How does our perception of the character of Bond change when we watch a different actor portray him?

I have been wanting to see the older James Bond movies, and I have found that I like Connery and Brosnan the best. Connery, I think, is James Bond, however, unlike the others, whom I think are wanna-be Bonds. (Going off tangent here, but, personally, I think Connery looks better now than he did when he was younger...) Connery, essentially, made Bond what the character is. Not to mention the fact that Connery is British, which helps to add to the suaveness that he portrays through Bond. Brosnan, too, is British, but Connery made it all.
