...which I gather is something close to blasphemy. I have issues about that, actually. I loved Connery (who was gone before my time) but this attitude of him being the best Bond ever simply because he was the first is ridiculous to me. It just seems like the media is parroting old ideas that just don't apply anymore. But most Bond fans alive today weren't alive when Dr. No came out in 1962. Most Bond fans have grown up with a whole backlog of multiple actors as Bond showing on their TV sets and in theaters. That's a good thing. That means people can pick from amongst now 23 films and 6 actors to determine what they liked best. "What I like isn't what you like" is okay. There's no right or wrong preference and I wish the media in particular but also older fans (many of whom are parroting what they heard their fathers say when Lazenby or Moore took over) would stop perpetuating such a ridiculous notion. There are many reasons to like or not like any of the actors and the movies but I just don't see popular opinion being a valid reason.

Sorry, I've just heard this from so many people that I later learn haven't even seen most of the movies or in some cases any portrayal other than one or two (usually one Connery movie and all the Craig movies). It drives me mental.

I actually enjoyed most of them, some less than others. Maybe I was lucky, though, because my Dad (who would have come to the films around late Connery/early Roger Moore's time, I think) had read the books first, and actually favours Dalton too. So I never really got the whole 'Connery is the only Bond' thing. Technically, I came in around Brosnan's era, but Brosnan just ... doesn't really do it for me, and backtracking netted me Dalton, Moore and Lazenby, all of which I liked better. Basically, as you said, if you come in late, you get the option of cherry-picking, which is in some ways better.

I do think any opinion is valid, provided you've actually see the thing yourself. Don't diss anything you haven't seen, yes?
