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.

      Statistical reasons to Scratch Ickey from returning as a LT--Even in 2027

      By Soul Rebel · Posted

      Sound write-up MHS, as always.  Agree that the smart move that forward thinking franchises make would be drafting a tackle early, if not for sure in R1, depending on who's there. Based on early predictions we're choosing between Fano and Proctor. No brainer here...Fano all day. Proctor does not move the needle for me. In my mind, Icky has less future here than Brooks does. I love Icky, but he has been average as a top-10 pick, one good year where you saw the potential...and that was this year. He's built like a RT and his strengths are there, but he's always played left. I also feel like part of what has held him back from being elite, was his work ethic. He was known for it coming out, but feel like he fell right at home in Carolina and maybe didn't push himself as hard as he needed to. Throw in a major crucial injury that will take time to recover and a historical low return rate to current form, and the outlook is not great. Fano can play both sides and we need to also plan for Moton's departure. Either way, delaying drafting a tackle early this year will hurt us down the line. Our current OL is overpriced and needs to start adding draftees to start balancing out the inevitable changes coming in the next 2-3 years.  As others have said, maybe Icky can replace Hunt or Lewis in a couple years when he's fully recovered....IDK. Also not a guarantee, but then you have to figure out his contract and it becomes even more clouded.

      It's past time to just eliminate it in terms of an event. Just do the voting, name the roster, and move on. When you get down to 6th and 7th alternates it's just absurd. It doesn't mean anything.
