Who's the worst Bond?

Connery
Dalton
Craig
Brosnan
Moore
Lazenby

So...Lazenby.

Definitely Craig.

The newest Bond will be by far the worst if they go ahead with the plan to use someone just because they ticked off a bunch of diversity boxes.

Dalton was one of the very best actors to play Bond, but the two films themselves simply aren't great Bond films. It was an odd time with the Cold War coming to an unexpected and mostly bloodless end. The Soviets weren't seen as major enemies anymore, and Spectre had been put to bed by then. So no really strong enemies for Bond to fight. Of the two biggest tragedies of the Bond Series is that Dalton didn't get started with Bond at the beginning of the 80s with For Your Eyes Only. The tone of that film would have fitted his style a lot better, and he would have had more than two Bond films under his belt before the close of the 80s, and they would have been at a time when the series and the Cold War were both riding high.

So, what's the second of the two tragedies? The second would be either having Lazenby not working out and not becoming the 70s Bond, or not having Moore start with OHMSS and close out the 70s. As a matter of fact, Dalton himself was also being considered as a (very young) Bond for OHMSS as well, after his turn in "The Lion in Winter". There are many ways the Bond series could have turned out very differently.

Craig and Brosnan are both non-entities as Bond (for me, anyway), although there are a few non-Bond Brosnan films I do like, such as The Tailor of Panama and The Ghost Writer.

Craig is worse. But as said above, it is more about the movies than the actor. I liked but didn't love Craig in CR. Then the rest sucked. Dalton made an excellent Bond but, similarly, I only liked his first one.

I think Moore makes a great Bond but most of his movies are too goofy for me. The movies make me want to say Moore and Craig are the worst but then portrayals create a different order.

Craig

Craig

Brosnan.

Craig was equal to Connery and Moore, but has suffered from bad movie making lately, the last 8 years (oh my, how the time flies). Dalton was mediocre in the role, with a better movie than TLD and LtK he could have been good.
