"Bond sleeps with a lot of women" - Wow what an UNBELIEVABLE fact, thanks for sharing!
Tim Knight 😂😂😂
Lol
I seriously wonder how many STDs he has considering he NEVER used condoms during his encounters.
Maria Fox how would u know
Everything Phenomenal the fact that he never has condoms on hand when he’s with a woman for one thing.
RIP Sir Roger George Moore (14 October 1927 - 23 May 2017).
Eric Masters.🙏
I realised Moore Had The Same Birthday As Me!
I feel sorry for the person who had to count all of the times that he has been shot at.
Ben Willsmore Thanks but I'm always around :)
+Cinematic Top 10 all of us can. apart from you
***** i know but its not a major mistake so pretty much most people are able to read it anyway
+Zirofal Umm... nope.
+Zirofal probably an auto correct error.
Who THE Hell , was so bored to actually count the number of times Bond was shot at ? Kind of amazing , kind of sad
007 wasn't shot by a sniper rifle in Skyfall, he was shot with a 5.56MM M4 style carbine with a 4x zoom ACOG style scope that inaccurately showed a 6x zoom.
Expecting technical accuracy from WatchMojo is like expecting technical accuracy from WatchMojo. :)
Beside that Patrice IMHO was the first henchman who wasn't another mean jump and run fool. He was even the first who made a stage victory against Bond though with unwanted aid. Sadly he wasn't credited for this along the plot.
Do i love this comment
She said he was shot by “a sniper’s rifle”. Moneypenny was the sniper and she shot a rifle🤷🏻♂️
Damn. No details left un-included.
I don't agree that Brosnan was the most ridiculous Bond. True, there was the space laser weapon in Die Another Day, but Roger Moore actually went into space.
There was a space laser weapon in Diamonds are Forever too.
@@Dragonfly-0010 I can go along with sattelites. I mean honestly who actually knows what the super powers have put up there?
But scenes such as the spacelaser-battle, the karatescene in TMWTGG where Bond is aided by two teenagegirls to knock down an entire karateschool or the scene in Octopussy where Bond dresses up as a clown to disarm a nuclear bomb in a circus catapults Roger Moore to the bottom of the Bond-actor ranking list.
@@niels25chr1 I forgot that they're all meant to be highbrow/Oscar worthy performances.
* rolls eyes *
Moonraker was incredibly stupid...that one along with Die Another Day and License to Kill are the 3 crummiest
I think Roger Moore was the humorous Bond and Pierce Brosnan was meant to be the unrealistically perfect and suave Bond. There were outlandish aspects to Brosnan’s films but they were in the effort to say, he’s got all the gadgets, he doesn’t flinch at anything type of deal. Daniel Craig was the first Bond to be a bit more real. Show some pain/trauma or gritty emotion. At least he seemed more like a real person rather than a fantasy figure. Love all the bonds except Lazenby to be honest.
Anyone who's shot at Bond must have Stormtrooper aim.
Actually he has been hit a few times lol
It’s a film lol 🙂
😂😂
I agree with the HOT Chick!
Two issues in that sentence: stormtroopers actually have very good aim, look at the invasion of the tantum V, you can’t go around shooting and killing main characters.
Two: you can’t go around killing main characters.
George Lazenby was underrated because he followed Sean. If he'd been given more time the fans would have accepted him.
I accepted him right away as Bond, but unfortunately Lazenby never returned to the role because he feared being typecast.
He did a great job in one of the best Bondfilms ever made
@@jalabi99 No , he did not return due to bad advice , also Bond was not as "in" in the late 60s and many thought 007 films would be dead by early 70s
No Lazenby was NOT underated he was a great bond ...His agent talked him out of doing anymore bond movies as he told him you don't want to be labled. There was a great documentary that talked about this. Can't remember what it was called though
The Laz movie is one of the best Bond film, if not the best Bond films, of all time. He was great.. like others have said.. he never got the chance to grow into it. "We have all the time in the world..." Jesus, what a great movie.
I love how everyone has their own favorite Bond actor and their own favorite Bond film. Like, there are some that most of us can agree are better or worse than others, but you can't really say anyone is wrong for liking or hating them; for example, I know people that love Roger Moore the most because of how goofy his films were, but other people say their favorite is Brosnan because of his suave, action-packed take on the character; and still others like Daniel Craig for his intensity or George Lazenby for his (in my opinion, underrated) more emotional portrayal of Bond. It's just all over the board and I love it.
RIP Sean, & Roger. You Two Are, Always, & Will Be The Best 007 Ever. No One Comes Close, PERIOD.

Timothy Dalton is underrated as Bond
+TheBreadman904 You mean OVERrated. He always looked bored.
+Karen Fahel Stoic, not bored, like the Bond in the books. Dalton was brought in as a sub until Brosnan's TV contract for "Remington Steele" was over. I think they should have kept Dalton.
David Scott No, bored. Stoic still has a level of intensity that neither me nor my husband (who is the REAL Bond fan in the family) could see.
+David Scott "The Living Daylights" likely started out as the final outing for Roger Moore, but after "A View To A Kill" Moore hung up the tux and the producers looked for a new actor to take over. They first approached Dalton, who was unavailable due to other filming obligations at the time. They screen tested another actor, but didn't pick him up. Then they went to Brosnan, and intended to have him take over in the film. But when word got out that Brosnan was the new Bond, "Remington Steele" saw a spike in ratings, and the show's contract was renewed. The producers insisted that no one from "Remington Steele" was going to play Bond, so they went back to Dalton, who was now available. Dalton was originally going to be in "Goldeneye" after his contract expired in 1993, but he quit the role in 1994, and Brosnan suceeded him.
JCBro2014"Remington Steele" was a terrible show and Brosnan was robbed.
“He made Batman look dorky.”
Next thing you know, they’ll be saying Cesar Romero’s Joker wasn’t crazy enough.

WatchMojo.com yeah how about quit using clips from that piece of shit Die Another Day movie. That is hands down the most hated movie in the entire franchise.
"We love Adam West, but he made Batman look dorky." Wasn't that the whole point of the series?? To be campy? So that wasn't Adam's fault... Also, I'm amazed they didn't talk about any other actors like Cary Grant.

Hi
Scottish is British, Britain is not a country, it is made up of England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.
+Leo Johnston You pointed this out for me
+Leo Johnston UNITED KINGDOM !!
pvtrichter88 YEAH!!!!!!!
2:07 actually Connery retired a second time when Moore took over the role. He retired first after "You Only Live Twice (1967)", and then came back for "Diamonds Are Forever (1971)" when Lazenby didn't really work out...
sean connery and pierce brosnan are my favorite bonds
Agreed. 1: Connery, 2a:Brosnan, 2b:Dalton, 3: Moore, 4. Lazenby, 5: whoever the new guy is, 6: literally anyone else, 11: Daniel Craig. Sorry, I can’t even include him in a top ten. He’s not Bond, never has been. There are only 20 Bond Films for me
How do you figure the Brosnan movies were the most over the top?? What about Moonraker? What about Jaws and Oddjob??? Isn't that over the freaking top??
The difference was that Connery and Moore got better jobs.
The first actress to play Moneypenny, Lois Maxwell, stayed on until "A View to A Kill" after she originally intended to quit the role following "Diamonds Are Forever". The reason why she stayed on for so long, was because Roger Moore was a good friend of hers, and she stayed in the role during his tenure as a result.
The name is Bond
Chemical Bond. DAMN IT chemistry class!!!
+Luke Plays The name is bond,James Bond.love watching james bond films so much.

+joemaster312 thanks broseph!
@@Czech91 mmmmmmm me
Ohh Fck.. 😆 😆 😆
Brosnan was the most deadly but Dalton was definetley the darkest!
I disagree I think Craig has the most cold blooded persona...I like all the Bonds though
No one liked Dalton, because he came across as being pissed all the time. Craig is the most cold blooded (agree with John), but he's not mad.. More, "this is the job" way of cold.
Moore was (121 kills)
Clint Eastwood as Bond... Movie would be 30 minutes long because Bond would've shot the villain before he could invite him into his lair.
Villain starts his monologue about his long and complicated plan to take over the world... gets shot half a sentence in. Movie over, roll credits.
When you have to shoot, shoot, don't talk
@Jerrol Hale Eastwood was in a kind of Bond-spy film called The Eiger Sanction. His friend played by George Kennedy was also his nemesis. I liked how he didn't know who the villain was so he killed them all.
What about Chuck Norris?
@Leo Peridot Can you put a silencer on a .44 magnum? If not, M wouldn't have allowed Bond to carry one.
10: James Bond was the name of a noted ornithologist author which Fleming lifted for his character as boring, but manly.
9: Roger Moore had to finish The Saint and didn't become Bond until he was aged 45.
8: Adam West, Clint Eastwood, and Burt Reynolds supposedly turned down the Bond role.
7: The Bond character is actually Scottish. This makes him "British" rather than English.
6: George Lazenby lied to get the Bond role, inflating his resume with non-existant past roles.
5: Bond is a womanizer, bedding 55 women in 23 films.
4: The Bond theme was adapted from a stage musical song, "Good Sign, Bad Sign".
3: Pierce Brosnan's Bond was deadliest, killing 76 to 135 (depending on how it's counted) out of 350 people killed in the 23 movies rated.
2: Sean Connery, considered most masculine by many, has used a toupee' for all of his Bond movies.
1: The Bond character has been shot at 4662 times, unaccountably surviving.
That may save someone 13 minutes or so.
haha
Bond born in Germany
Ruhrgebiet ( N R W )
Thank you.
We need more people like you on UA-cam👏
The Scottish roots were written in because of Sean Conneries Scottish accent, skyfall being his home.
Brosnan did not have the most "over the top" films. He had ONE over the top film that "focused more on special effects than telling a good story" and that was the dreadful Die Another Day. Goldeneye was one of the best Bond films ever made, The World is Not Enough is an underrated gem in the franchise, and his Bond had some of the coldest and best kills in the series. Every actor that's played Bond has had a movie that was over the top (Connery had DAF, Craig had QOS, Moore had every film he was in sans TSWLM and FYEO)
Always amused by fanboys hatred of DAD because of the invisible car and the virtual reality exercise scene, but not the villain changing race by plastic surgery.
Which one of Daltons movies was over the top?
@@niels25chr1 Daltons Bonds were mor down to earth but even those had a few OTT scenes....I mean its Bond after all
@@postersandstuff Bond doesn´t come much grittier and down to earth than The Living Daylights and Licence To Kill. Only one I recall that goes beyond that would be From Russia With Love.
In my opinion Bond is best when the movies are grounded in some form of reality and put Bond into some really relevant geopolitical situations, however they still have to deliver some form of escapism.
CJ Bourne So much nonsense regarding Die Another Day...goodness.
Most macho Bond, Sean Connery
The coolest Bond, Roger Moore
Most suave Bond, Pierce Brosnan
Closest to Flemings´ litterary Bond, Timothy Dalton
I think I can agree on that !👍
The actor that never got cast but wondered how he would played the role- Jeremy brett
Rip roger Moore
The Vodka Martini Bond always drinks is said to be shaken, not stirred.
But in reality he always gets a stirred Vodka Martini. If he had gotten a shaken, the Vodka Martini would have been opaque instead of transparent
special vodka
He gets it stirred not shaken.
Actually... in some movies he says "shaken, not stirred", in other movies it's "stirred, not shaken".
The vodka looks at the vermouth from across the bar. Shaken vodka is still clear.
It's "shaken, not stirred." Never will understand how they let this slip in reverse in "You Only Live Twice!"
The mystery of James Bond, the legendary secret agent “007”, was additionally enhanced by the statement of his creator Ian Fleming, when he revealed to the media that the double agent from the World War II, known as “Tricycle”, served him as an inspiration. And after “Tricycle” himself described the mysterious life of spies in his memoirs, the controversy re-merged. Who was that man? He was born in 1912 in a well-off Serbian family in Titel, a small town in what today is Banat, and at that time a part of the mighty Austro-Hungarian monarchy. His name was Duško Popov.
Best WatchMojo intro ever!!!
When will WatchMojo do a top ten over the James Bond soundtracks? probably the best scores in cinema history.
Here is my pick:
- 10. Moonraker (John Barry) 1979
Beautiful emotional score - Barry explores new ways of doing Bondmusic
A Track especially worth mentioning: The centrifuge and Corinne puts down
- 09. A View To A Kill (John Barry) 1985
Barry at his best. A memorable action theme, great love themes, and great instrumental versions of the Theme song.
A Track especially worth mentioning: Golden Gate Fight
- 08. GoldenEye (Eric Serra) 1995
Controversial and experimental score but most welcome after the series six year hiatus. Serra made a good mix of percussions and sample sounds and it was a great idea to play the Bond theme on Timpanis
A Track especially worth mentioning: The GoldenEye Overture
- 07. Thunderball (John Barry) 1965
Part os Barrys golden period. Experience great Trumpet tunes by Derek Watkins. Barry really delivers atmosphere and aggresiveness.
A Track especially worth mentioning: The Bomb
- 06. The Spy Who Loved Me (Marvin Hamlisch) 1977
Marvin Halisch gives us a score with less music but very well timed mash ups. The disco action theme works very well for Roger Moores Bond. The epic music when the sub leaves the sinking tanker Liparus at the ending is definitely worth mentioning
A Track especially worth mentioning: The Tanker
- 05. The World Is Not Enough (David Arnold) 1999
Arnolds best and most melodic shot. The World Is Not Enough is more diverse and more melodic than Tomorrow Never Dies and balances the mix of symphonic orchestra and electronic music better than Die Another Day. It succeeds in using the theme song within the score in a Barry-like fashion.
A Track especially worth mentioning: Welcome To Baku
- 04. You Only Live Twice (John Barry) 1967
Part of Barrys golden period. YOLT is a more diverse score than the two entries that came before it (Goldfinger and Thunderball) and mixes beautiful and agressive pieces very well. The score is far better than the movie.
A Track especially worth mentioning: The Wedding
- 03. Diamonds´Are Forever (John Barry) 1971
The end of Barrys Golden Period and the end of the Connery-era.
Diamonds Are Forever has a weak point: The Action music, but the rest of the score works just perfectly. It makes good use of the theme song within the score and it has some very beautiful stellar tracks alongside the suspense music.
A Track especially worth mentioning: Death at the Whyte House
- 02. The Living Daylights (John Barry) 1987
John Barry leaves the Bond franchise on a high. The score for Daltons first outing as Bond is nothing else but a masterpiece. Barry delivers a strong score with great and updated action music, a fantastic love theme and some very dark tracks that help distinguish Daltons Bond from Roger Moores Bond.
A Track especially worth mentioning: Murder At The Fair
Honourable Mentions: Live and Let Die (George Martin) 1973, Die Another Day (David Arnold) 2002, For Your Eyes Only (Bill Conti) 1981
- 01. On Her Majesty´s Secret Service (John Barry) 1969
The peak of Barrys Golden Period. A New Bond presented a need for a new Sound and John Barry delivers just that with an updated score which makes references to the previous Bondfilms starring Sean Connery but with a twist. Barry uses A Moog syntheziser to distuingish Lazenby from Connery. This was the first time a movie score mixed Symphonic orchestra and Moog Synthesizer and you can hear and numerous tracks throughout the score/Soundtrack. It´s also a darker and more epic score than what the audience was used to at the time.
A Track especially worth mentioning: Ski Chase
Other Facts
Timothy Dalton was approached many times to take the role since OHMSS, live And Let Die, For Your Eyes Only, Octopussy Then A View To A Kill, but then he was Offered to the unmade unofficial bond film "Warhead"
Thunderball was Remade 4 times since the 50's but never made, the original 1965 then Never Say Never Again and then the unmade unofficial film "Warhead"
The Producers and Desmond Llewellyn loves Timothy Dalton's Bond and working with him
When the Producers cast Daniel Craig, because of the Daniel Craig's Movie "Layer Cake" as Agent xxxx, also Daniel Craig And Ben Wishaw worked together twice sincr Layer Cake then Skyfall
Sam Neill Was almost bond in the living daylights as he performed a screen test, the critics love him sam neill as bond but the producers feels doesnt right for the role so they chose pierce brosnan and Timothy Dalton was the 2 candidate
There might be now 26 official bond films if the third bond film Property of A Lady 1991 and Bond 93,
Unmade Bond Films:
Property Of A Lady 1991
Bond 93
Casino Royale 1999
Once Upon A Spy
Warhead
Thunderball 50s
Steven Spielberg, Quentin Tarantino and Christopher Nolan was Almost a Bond Director
Pierce Brosnan Confessed to be the Worst bond actor after The World Is Not Enough
Timothy Dalton's Bond was considerably the best and underrated
Almost bond actors:
Sam Neill
Liam Neeson
Sean Bean
Clive Owen
Henry Cavill
Christian Bale
Ewan Mcgregor
Hugh Jackman
and others more
If you watch the first two Bond films you can see how good Connery was. After Goldfinger, everything was just formula until Daniel Craig.
Sean bean is villain in Goldeneyw
I never knew about S Neil but I've said all along C Owen would have been a great Bond
James Bond is actually half Scottish and half Swiss. According to the book, His parents obituary in You Only Live Twice, Andrew Bond and Monique Delacroix-Bond died in a climbing accident in the French Alps, orphaning him at the age of 11 with his aunt.
Glad you did a video about bond keep up the good work
Almost 10 million subscribers, congratulations! You're videosaker are much appritiated :)
Here's an interesting point; in the classic Bond theme, the iconic guitar riff kicks in at 0.07 seconds.
Yeah
I like the Craig movies best, but Connerys character best
Thank you for this 😍
Connery, Moore and then Brosnan, 1,2,3..perfect.
Sean Connery and Pierce Brosnan the best 007´s
Brosnan almost killed the series. Well...the producers helped a lot too.
Spot on! It’s not Brosnans fault the producers made a mess of the films
Roger moore 👍 Sean Connery and brosnan
6- Timothy Dalton
5- roger moore
4- Daniel Craig
3- George lazenby
2- pierce Brosnan
1- Sean Connery
@Big Dick Playaaa He would never have pulled off "From Russia With Love".
Watchmojo: “#1 Bond has been shot at a lot!”
Me: No shit sherlock
Good Intro!!! Bravo!!!
this was awesome
No.1: Timothy Dalton is underrated.
Skyfall was not the only time he was seriously wounded... He was killed in You Only Live Twice. Hence the name
After connery my favorite Bond actor is still Brosnan
He only did one classic film - Goldeneye. I can just about watch the one with Marceau, but it's got issues too.
I would be happy to see Pierce again.
Me tooo
Tom Riener Are you taking the piss? Bland Bond, silly films. Watch the Matador though He is great in that and a good film. Each to their own though fella. You liked him, fair enough.
Totally agree. Brosnan was handed crap for stories, but still made them pretty great. Daniel Craig is not Bond, as far as I’m concerned. Connery is the best.
pierce brosnan was originally cast to play in Casino Royale.
Ghawk pierce wanted to act, but was rejected due to an extra expense of 50 mil or something
Ghawk. They should have given Clive Owens a shot at Casino Royal.
R.I.P. Burt Reynolds
I ADORED SEAN as Bond / 007. But one of his greatest movies EVER imho was when he co-starred with Michael Caine in "The Man Who Would Be King." If you are over 40 and have never seen it, get your hands on it and ENJOY.
"Well hey there miss moneypusseh.. Wanna jump on my jet pack?"
piers brosnan was my favorite bond
Best looking Bond of all of them.
Brosnan was actually one of the best bonds
Yes dude he is nice bond I'm big fan of him
No he wasn't. Too small, too much hair, not enough eyebrows. Too babyfaced. Not James Bond. Good actor, just not James Bond. Sorry.
bird10498 Too small? Bro he is like 6'3"
@@bird10498 He tried too hard. Overacting. That's why Roger Moore was my favorite. He brought humor to the character.
@@daboys1215 Ian Fleming, who wrote the Bond books, said Moore was more like the Bond he had in mind.
The name is Mojo watch mojo! it's just cracked me up so hard lol
Damn this is a great list right here wow I am a die hard 007 fans and I didn't know a lot of these facts!!!
Lazenby played the part of Bond well. He was lucky to play the part in the best Bond film too. The Bond who never was is Lewis Collins. Dalton got the part.
You overlooked Australian-raised Irish-American Mel Gibson (Rejected The Offer), North Irish Liam Neeson (Rejected The Offer), and Robert Pattinson (Was Rejected For Hygienic Issues).
Plus bunch of forgotten TV actors (James Brolin etc.).
Sam Neil was another.
John Gavin was PAID for Diamonds are Forever....
dirtypms. Liam Neeson would have made an interesting Bond. He's got Bond like characteristics.
Hygienic issues???... [What] Worst case of Halitosis ?... Or did he smell like a sack of rotten potatoes ?
Oh my God! Here it is guys! The first good list from WM in 2015
I know this is late but I had to say it, Bond was married in fact it has been mentioned in 3 Bond movies with different ppl playing him before Daniel Crage, and Telly Savalas played a Bond villain as well
Yes Connery for the win
Woah audio comments what a sweet update ▶️1:25_______________⏪
You got me
the song though, i was laughing
Well done.
I think one of the more interesting things in the franchise isn't even official canon, but a fan theory; that James Bond isn't just one person throughout the movies, but rather a code-name applied to every 007 agent.
+Vercalos al'Corlin Makes sense if you think about it
In Goldeneye, he wanted to fuck Moneypenny
In Die another day, she had no chance with him and she was old.
+Vercalos al'Corlin yeah but that theory is shit, and detracts from the above average persona of Bond. A lot of stuff in Skyfall put that to bed anyhow.
mickotron feel free to poke holes in the fan theory as you like, but calling it shut is unnecessarily rude.
If this is true though, how comes he's called James Bond before he becomes 007 in Casino Royale, his parents were called Bond in Skyfall and King Cade knows him as James Bond in Skyfall? Also in Diamonds Are Forever Connery's Bond wants revenge for the death of his wife from George Lazenby's film and there's a reference to the death of Tracy in The Spy Who Loved Me as well. Same at the start of For Your Eyes only (they were both Roger Moore films). I can see how people would think that, but there are many flaws with the theory.
+Bricks and Pieces Animation They're all in on it.
RIP Roger Moore, nobody did it better.
Moore and Connery were the 2 best.
Not in my book, Chris. Sean Connery is the first AND best of them all!!
Brosnan and Dalton were better. Y'all just didn't like him because y'all are too old n weren't use to James bond being a killer. You guys still fantasize about bond making a corney joke after each 50s Batman fight scene.
Richard Harper lmao live and let die and man with the golden gun don’t some jokey to me I like brosnan and dalton too but you dumb bro
Connery coolest. Craig the meanest. In the end, it was Moore who brought people into theaters over and over.
Anthony Dawson played the mysterious Blofeld in From Russia With Love and thunderball. His face is covered in both movies and is in the credits as "?" He was also Professor Dent in Dr. No.
Patrick: Hey SpongeBob, I can see you through this drinking str-
It's a wonder STDs alone haven't offed the MI5 agent! lol
Bond is MI6
C/mon!!! He's MI6
Q fitted him with a Perma-condom- it's standard issue for MI6 agents
Its good to know that the most iconic English man is Scottish oh Freedom
Freedom!
+Tig Trager Freedom!
+Tig Trager already see England go out in the first round
+Tig Trager England will get knocked oot in the first round of the euros
+Cameron Gemmell That's still one more round than Scotland will play in.
I find the first gun-barrel sequence from Dr. No the funniest, the music starts like five seconds after he shot the gun
I cannot express how much I would love to see an Adam West Bond movie.
Also I lmao at the explosion 3:45
Timothy Dalton is underrated as Bond. if i wanted a bond to save the world it would be him.
Lazenby did a fine job. In fact On Her Majesty's Secret Service is probably in the top 3-4 Bond films
Yea,agree
Woody Allen as Jimmy Bond in Casino Royale (1967): "My doctor says that I should never have bullets enter my body at any time! You realise this means an angry letter from the Times?!?" LOL
Here are 6 more for you.
1.Before Roger Moore was actually cast they wanted Timothy Dalton for the role as they wanted a younger actor. But Dalton turned it down feeling he was to young for the role and Moore was cast. Then later before they cast Dalton in the role they actually wanted Pierce Brosnan to play the role, but he was contracted to Remington Steel, so they cast Dalton in the role. Also Ian Fleming actually wanted David Niven to play James Bond originally, but the producers wanted Sean Connery.
2. An American actor was in line for the role alongside Daniel Craig in fact he made it to the final 2. Goran Visnjic who is famous for the Elektra film and ER TV series was in line for the role before Daniel Craig was cast.
3. Lazenby was also Stupid. Producers wanted to sign him to a multi film James Bond contract but he believed if he signed a 1 film contract, then they would pay him a lot more to sign up to do more after On her Majesties Secret Service was released. He believed it would be a huge hit so he would be able to negotiate a bigger contract. Unfortunately for him the film wasn't a huge hit and they didn't ask him back for a second film. He was famous before James Bond for the old Milk Tray chocolate ads.
4. Goldeneye was Brosnan's best Bond film. Its director Martin Campbell also directed Daniel Craig's first Bond film Casino Royale. Campbell insisted on doing as many non CGI shots as he could on the films. In fact in Casino Royale there was only one CGI shot in the whole film. I guarantee if you don't know what it is you would never guess it.
5. Woody Allen played the villain in the James Bond Spoof of Casino Royale which featured David Niven playing James Bond.
6. Sony Picutres produced the remake of Thunderball, Never Say Never Again.They later distributed some of Daniel Craig's Bond films. Also the book to Thunderball is the only book that is based on the films screenplay. It was the reason Sony were able to remake it. The guys who wrote the screenplay Kevin Mcclory and Jack Whittingham took Eon and Fleming to court to claim Thunderball was their idea and so the rights belonged to them and the courts agreed. They did a deal with Sony to allow them to remake it. Ian Fleming only wrote the novel after the screenplay was written. It is also the reason they couldn't use the organisation Spectre for years as they were created in the book Thunderball and they came under those rights.
*FACT #1:*
I'm a much better secret agent.

Bronson starred in the most over the top Bond films? Uhhh, they had a flying car and were fighting, in space, with laser guns, in Moore's films. Do you even Bond bro?
Moore's Bond films were the most gadget-ridden. Q got LOTS of work from him
By the way, the man's name is B-R-O-S-N-A-N
That's nothing when compared to the INVISIBLE CAR, SOLAR LASER, and the TSUNAMI SURF. Die Another Day was far sillier than Moonraker.
TheAlanirvin Moonraker was obviously intentionally parodic of the whole series, from the free fall skydiving fight to to Jaws cartoonish fights to Bond riding a horse past huge billboards (product placements) to the space battle reminiscent of the scuba fights in the earlier movies.
@@mr.sinjin-smyth Ya everything apart from the plot. The whole Korean Arms trade in the opening was quite smart. The Cuban stuff works pretty well too but from that point on it is downhill. Not just because of the invisible car and the Tsunami surf but it also reuses a lot of situations we´ve already seen. I mean we´d already seen an Aston Martin chase on a frozen lake in The Living Daylights. The plane thing at the end where people get sucked out due to a hole in the plane from a gunshot is exactly like Goldfinger.
I hate it when they just copy from movies we´ve already seen. That´s why I dislike Skyfall and Spectre as well.
The most interesting fact is one you didn't mention, when Roger Moore was serving his national service time in the British Army he was in a miliitary intelligence unit in West Germany.
Love bond my favorite action hero, he has the cool swagger the intellect the luck the gadgets to do anything.
3:18 As much as I love Clint (and Hugh Jackman for that matter), I would very much regret it if the role of Bond were to be taken up by a non-Brit - so thank you Clint for 'agreeing that Bond should stay British'. Anyways, the Harry movies, In the Line of Fire, Blood Work and Tightrope are more than good enough - and (even though this is somewhat unrelated) let us not forget the Man with No Name.
Alright, I did find you XD Though, kinda late cause this comment is far far far far far far far .... far far far... far far away from the top. XD
Still cant believe that it wasn't Timothy Dalton who had killed the most men, given that that was the sort of Bond he aimed to play.

You know what you should do:
Top 10 James Bond Henchmen.
And don't forget to include Jaws in there!
Seriously? Ever green??? It's pronounced E-VA
+McAssassin98 We get it WALL-E
NO ! THIS IS PATRICK !
+McAssassin98 *EVA Unit 01
Tyler Durden Yes they did.
+McAssassin98 They also pronounce "Lazenby" very wrongly...
Hmm so now this brings up and important question. Will you guys do a versus with Ethan Hunt vs James Bond??
Ethan Hunt vs James Bond is moot. Ethan Hunt is badass because Tom Cruise plays him. Without Tom Cruise, Ethan Hunt doesn't count much. In case of James Bond however, the actor who plays James Bond isn't important. it's the character of James Bond that's important.
I hope I'm wrong and many actors play Eathan Hunt in the years to come and the MI franchise remains just as awesome. it didn't work with Jason Bourne so I'm not too hopeful.
Vivek Singh Anyone can play Ethan Hunt, just depends on if they're right for the role and yes it'll be a big shoe to fill but it can be done Tom Cruise is not the be all end all of Mission Impossible.
+Cool Jhags I hope that's true... who do you think should play the next Hunt?
Vivek Singh It would need to be someone with a lot of charisma hopefully he can do his own stunts.
Chris Pratt, Chris Evans, Ryan Reynolds, Chris Pine, I would put Jeremy Renner but seeing how he's already in Mission Impossible I don't think that'll work.
Bricks and Pieces Animation where?
Great piece - Forgot to mention that James was based on a Canadian gent , named Bill Stevenson .
I love these movies.
"A FEW GOOD KILLS" WOULD MAKE A GREAT TITLE FPR A JAMES BOND STORY
I really hate how America is trying to take James Bond, he's our spy. we appreciate all of the blockbuster American movies but we don't try to take them for ourselves.
Totally true
Yh that's true, I reckon all Bond actors should be British
+Owen Balding be more specific Owen
Owen Balding I think he should only be Scottish or at least have a very good Scottish accent
+Matthew McVeigh LOL, sorry, you are 100% wrong in this case. While the character and story make take place in the UK, it is an AMERICAN brand. The producers, Broccoli and EON productions are American and they are one of the biggest Hollywood brands of all time. The Bond brand is American through and through.
You should do top/ best James Bond suits
Another fact about the James Bond series is the opening credits e.g "For your Eyes Only" sung by Sheena Easton she was the only one to feature in the opening credits of all the James Bond films.
"..but West made Batman look like a dork"?
That was the joke, he was supposed to be funny :P
+Sams ChanneI and entertaining and at least he had an understandable voice XD
Too smart for them Sam! :)
Afonso Lucas haha true I guess
He could go to be James Bond
Right; the Batman TV show was decidedly camp. And also appealed to the kiddies.
According to Mojo, an AR-15, or derivative of, counts as a sniper rifle.
ashley osborne im english, mate.
Yeah true, but she used it as a sniper so I guess that's what they meant
+IRejectSociety You can mod an AR-15 into just about anything. You can find DMR (designated marksman rifle) kit for an AR 15 with a longer barrel, sight, bipod and other accessories. You can get a shorter barrel, smaller stock, and other accessories and make it a bullpup or CQB rifle. You can change out the upper receiver to make it almost any caliber you want. You can even fit it with heavier stuff and a drum mag to make it more like a light machine gun. Now you would have to check your local laws to see what is legal or not, but an AR-15 can absolutely be called a sniper rifle. I should also point out that the definition of a sniper rifle is a scoped rifle. Meaning anything classified as a rifle with a scope added can be called a sniper rifle.
+baddogonline for a sniper trying to hit a target over a mile yes the AR is a bad choice. As a DMR for shots up to 550 yards it's what the us and several other countries use. It's smaller and uses the same ammo as the rest of the squad, unlike other sniper rifles. Bond isn't going for a long shot and he needs a stable midrange weapon that breaks down fast, making the AR one of the best choices.
IRejectSociety In From Russia With Love, they use an AR-7 as a sniper rifle. Now that is far more outlandish than the AR-15 or M-16 or G-3 scoped as a sniper rifle.
Try top 10 bond villans/gadgets
Wow that Im just here for the birds line has a whole new meaning.
Brosnan was the best Bond, even if his movies were less than great. Craig's too serious and broody to be the best.
Eric Hall. He needs to lighten up. Why so serious ?
Actually Daniel Craig is the closest to what Ian Fleming had in mind.
What about the fact that James Bond invented the jets in The Spy Who Loved Me?
+Some Cows jetski*
saw SPECTRE its excellent
It would be interesting to know how old James Bond is. He is about 30-35 in the novels and the first novel Casino Royale was published in 1953. So this makes Bond 90-95. He is really fit!!
