I love his Bond films, just pure fun. And, god, he was sexy. They don’t make ‘em like they used to!

Few favorites:

- You Only Live Twice (1967)

- Never Say Never Again (1983)

- Goldfinger (1964)

I wish he hadn't stopped making films at 70, but I can understand that he wanted some peace.

Same here. It's a shame The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen was his very last.

RIP (the best James Bond.. a fantastic actor!!)

The best James Bond is George Lazenby. Sean Connery was fantastic in "The Man who would be a king" and in "The last crusade".
