Man Hall Of Fame Part 11

Today's inductee into my Man Hall Of Fame is someone who is familiar to nearly every generation of movie fan. He is the main character of the longest series of movies in modern history. He always gets the girl, saves the world, and does it in style.

James Bond 007 is the man! Whip and debonair, he knows fine wine and fine women. No matter who Bond is played by the character comes through.

Sean Connery - To many the real James Bond.
George Lazenby - A one shot bond but probably one of the best Bond movies plus it had Diana Rigg in it!
Roger Moore - To me this man is Bond. I grew up in this era. He could be a bit campy but he was all out suave.
Timothy Dalton - The weakest of the Bonds but he still had a good run. He had a bit of an edge to him.
Pierce Brosnan - The modern resurgence began with Brosnan's Bond. Bigger budgets, bigger story lines, bigger effects.
Daniel Craig - With only the modern Casino Royale to his credit so far Bond is in good hands. He is very edgy and has a bit of a mean streak. This is the Bond for a future generation.

James Bond will be around for many years to come as well. This franchise is simply one of the best!
