The Roger Moore films are extremely corny and campy even by Bond standards - which is saying something! I’ve got a bit of a soft spot for them though. All the Jaws plotlines probably resonated with me as a freakishly tall person.
Roger Moore is my favorite James Bond!
I’ve got a friend who thinks Pierce Brosnan is the best one because he was “our generation’s Bond”. Both born 92/93 so Goldeneye, et al. were a sensation for us at the time.
Personally I like Sean Connery but that’s an unoriginal opinion. I enjoyed the story about the casting producer who wanted him for the role immediately because he “walked like a panther”. What a departure from being a milkman in Edinburgh!
Goldeneye was my favorite film as a kid but Moore was always the classiest, a real gentleman.
Timothy Dalton was the best Bond, closest to the books.
A real slasher of … bad guys.

If you liked this, you need to see Roger Moore’s performance in Cannonball Run. Lolol, he plays a rich boy who is pretending to be a spy/actor named Roger Moore, it’s beautiful and fits well with this story.
