    Should I be embarrassed I've never seen a 007 movie?

    Do you watch a lot of movies? If you do and like action/spy movies I think your missing a lot of great movies. They are not all great but there are some gems and I would highly recommend to start with some early Sean Connery Bond Movies. From Russia with Love or Goldfinger both great movies IMO.

    I didn't see his age and can understand not seeing any Bond movies. I still highly recommend trying a few Bond movies though.

    I'm with DPC a bit... Brosnan's first was my first, and it's always seemed a little comic to me. I liked Casino Royale...he seems much more bada$$ when Bond's Craig rather than Pierce.

    I agree and almost all of Brosnan's Bond movies were my least favorite. Moore's Bond were better even though they were not that serious either. I would rate them in this order:


    1. Sean Connery
    2. Daniel Craig
    3. Timothy Dalton
    4. Roger Moore
    5. George Lazenby Rated this low but the one movie he was in is one of my favorite Bond movies.
    6. Pierce Brosnan

    OT: I saw Les Miserables (the Liam Neeson/Geoffrey Rush version). I can't believe I made it this far through life w/o reading it, seeing the play, or watching the movie, but I really enjoyed it.

    Odd, since I took a French Literature class in college, and count (no pun intended) the Count of Monte Cristo among my favorite books.
