Actor Sir Roger Moore, best known for playing James Bond, has died aged 89, his family has announced.

He played the famous spy in seven Bond films including Live and Let Die and A View to a Kill.

Sir Roger's family confirmed the news on Twitter, saying he had died after "a short but brave battle with cancer".

 

What an actor.  Can't believe he was 89!

I was surprised to see his age as well. 

On a related note, I have never watched a Bond movie. Never piqued my interest for whatever reason. Just me? 

Casino Royale is a 2 hour hair product commercial.  They even drink sambuca on the train through Italy while marveling at how grotesque Eva Green's feet are.  Give it a go.

Lol - sounds like I should get some royalties from that one! Too many similarities.

My first James Bond was Roger Moore, so he'll always be Bond to me. Barely remember Moonraker, but Octopussy was a terrific film to start with into the genre/series.

 

Moore had so much class it was amazing, and the Bond girls didn't hurt to look at either.

I liked Moore first then appreciated Connery.  For Your Eyes Only was great as was Moonraker.  View to a kill with Chris Watkins and Grace Jones was my favorite for some reason.  

Dammit, that was the movie I was thinking of when I mentioned Octopussy, which is also a great film, but my first Bond film was FYEO. Absolute crush on the female lead, Carole Bouquet - quite the stunner.

Opening song for FYEO is killer.  I like all the bond movies.  

If you have followed them for a while, skyfall was the poo.  Brought it full circle.

    • It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed. 
    • I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
