Best Bond actor debut performance

All the debut films for respective actors have been great. The performances by Bond actors have been notable too.


* DN - SC's iconic entry is memorable. I don't think "Bond, James Bond" has been said better

* OHMSS - GL's performance was candid, IMO

* LALD - RM easily fit in to the role

* TLD - Probably the biggest change in how Bond was portrayed. Some found the portrayal to be the closest to the literary Bond

* GE - PB appeared to have balanced the key elements of SC and RM's portrayal nicely

* CR - DC's portrayal was in a way similar to TD's, IMO, and interestingly ruthless


I guess, for the stylish and iconic portrayal that has left a mark since 1962, I would give it to SC for DN

    I respect you as a poster TP, but I see a lot of people commenting on pros and cons threads which are started by the poster that you mentioned. It would not be wrong to say that those threads are keeping this section alive :)

    IMO, there are quite a few pointless threads on this forum. To illustrate, I once visited the Trivia sections and found threads that were started by you that I would normally associate with a kid:

    * Through the keyhole
    * Unlikely thing to be said
    * etc.

    To be frank, I cannot even go past the first few posts of such threads. Now it would be so easy for me to try to shove my opinion down on how pointless such threads are. But I don't as, at the end of the day, it does not effect me directly. There are sections of this forum where I can restrict myself to and at times, it can be funny to see grown ups playing such childish games

    And there is already a thread stared by a joker on how dreaded the rankings are so there is an option available to people who don't like such threads to leak their wounds

    Apart from your personal opinion on such threads, if there is a valid reason for such threads to be pointless (or any more pointless than your trivia and games threads), please let me know
