Rim and Dutch are you guys kidding? Sean Connery didn't even LAST long in the role. Roger Moore IS James Bond!

Roger Moore was the suave James
Bond and was perfect for the part. The new actor who starred
in Casino Royale recently is ranked up above Roger Moore. At
first I didn't think he was but
have since changed my mind. Sean Connery wasn't my idea of
James Bond more like a Scottish
Laird.
