rog could have been amazing

just watched ww11 film sea wolves i cant help thinking how fantastic rm bond could have been if he had played it like he plays real life ww11 british agent gavin stewart sauve yet totally ruthless and dedicated to getting the job done.

See also his performance in 'The Wild Geese'. Sooooo cool!

i have and yes he is but in sea wolves he really is lie the literary bond an agent during ww11 and so ruthless love the scene where mrs cromwell the german spy trys to stab him and he turns the knife on her and earlier when he calls for her and 2 assasins are waiting in her place he kills them both then attends the ball where mrs cromwell is and pretends he went to the wrong house reminds me of the scene in dr no when bond shows up at the chinese girls house after running the assasins off the road and when the girl is surprised that he s not dead bond lies about his car not working and he had to get a taxi .after seeing old rog in sea wolves he could have easily pulled of the early films

zig zag

Acording to imdb sea woves was billed as the new bond film!!
So you may be on to sumthin there.

Hell, yes! B-) I've always felt that was proof-positive that he could have done Bond the way I wanted to see it...he simply chose not to

Yes, I too could never understand how Moore could present himself so well in other films and then just "yuck yuck" himself through a Bond.

It must have been a deliberate choice, and one that both the producers and directors approved of. A very sad state of affairs that nearly drove me away from the Bond films.
