making m a woman was a mistake.. the old school bond movies were so good because the gadgets were so futuristic.. now its reality for the most part.the stunts seemed better ..live let die..my fave.

I thought Roger Moore had the most fun with it, but based on the novels, I have to say Sean Connery was the truest to the book character.

Man..loved those on ABC Sunday nights when I was a kid...oh the hormones when the Bond women were on

....and this is exactly why.

For Your Eyes Only - favorite.

Julie Roberts - not the best bond girl, but the best bond eye-candy.

There was a Charlie's Angels episode (Shelly Hack 4th season I think), involving Timothy Dalton as a jewel thief. Farrah Fawcett showed up for that episode playing Dalton's girlfriend. As they set up the investigation, they described Dalton's character as a James Bond type.

Hmm!! Foreshadowing?
