I couldn't even get past Lazenby's fight on the beach. I'm a big Bond fan but have not seen OHMSS, even though I own it. Just find it as an anomoly. I actually enjoyed Moore and Dalton a lot. The past few Craig movies I thought were a little too emotional for my tastes. They were good to watch once, but don't have a lot of replayability. I'm kind of tired of watching Craig's personal struggles in Bond movies.
That's correct. David Niven was a horrible James Bond. Not quite as bad as George Lazenby or Pierce Brosnan but almost.
Moore was not good at all in that role. Dalton was barely tolerable. I think Daniel Craig is the second best Bond.
Moore was great, I enjoyed his movies for the most part. Live and Let Die, The Man with the Golden Gun and Octopussy were amoung my favorites. Dalton was badass. He was way grittier, I love License to Kill and The Living Daylights is a very underrated Bond movie. He had that unhinged borderline serial killer vibe to him.
Casino Royale was great. I actually enjoyed Quantum a lot. I'm in the minority on that one. Skyfall was bad Spectre was "ok" but a little overdramatic.
Lazenby is Austrailian and Brosnan is Irish. Connery is indeed Scottish. I know James Bond from the inside out.
I've read all the books at least three times, some 6 or 7 times. The guy said he wanted to write the greatest spy story of all time and he did it. I memorized the theme songs to "From Russia with Love" and "Thunderball". Even the instrumental themes were excellent. I remember reading about the production of the movie, "Dr. No" before it was released. It was in some magazine. Could have been Look or Life.

I think whats more important than who plays Bond, it's if the movie ages well. Certain movies (Brosnan and Moore for example) didn't really age well.
