      Agreed... I don't think they bothered to remaster Dalton.

      Aussie guy?? Are you talking about "MAD MAXH"?

        I meant George Lazenby (couldn't recall his name offhand).

        http://www.essortment.com/all/jamesbondwho_redi.htm

        The next James Bond to grace the silver screen was George Lazenby. He appeared in one film, On Her Majesty's Secret Service, in 1969. For this film the producers couldn't get Connery, so they went on a major search. Lazenby, an Australian model with no prior acting experience, was the result. He had big shoes to fill coming right after Sean Connery, indeed even in the midst of Connery's Bond career.

        While On Her Majesty's Secret Service is now regarded as probably the best non-Connery Bond film, Lazenby himself is often cited as a poor James Bond. He was too flat and straight-laced for most moviegoers. As critic James Berardinelli says of Lazenby's performance: "[He] can handle the action sequences, but that's about all he masters. For most of the film he's stiff and uncharasmatic?"

        After one film, Lazenby decided to leave the Bond series. Producers then convinced Connery to pick up 007's reigns once more for Diamonds Are Forever in 1971 before finally ending his official Bond Career. Because Lazenby was only in one film, and because Connery's career overlapped his, he is often the forgotten James Bond.

          Thanks for that. I seem to remember the guy you refer to now. I didn't know he Aussie or any of the history, so that was interesting.

            Yeah, there's too much JB lore to keep track of... For example, after I got interested in Remington Steele (thank you, 99 cent Vudu TV promo!) I found out that Pierce Brosnan was actually supposed to play to be the new JB instead of Tim Dalton but Rem. Steele got picked up for the last season quite unexpectedly so PB had to bail out and wasn't very happy about that.

              That defintely worked out for the best. The Dalton movies killed the franchise for a while. When they started up again with Brosnan(a better age to play James Bond this time and a more mature actor) they were much much better than they had been since Connery played Bond. Roger Moore brought too much silliness to it.

                I agree most JB movies with Rodger Moore were way too goofy for me.

                But he was good in some pretty cool action chase scenes.

                I think he showed he could prostitute the part both ways so I really blame it on the writers and producers, not necessarily Moore.

                I would also probably put some blame on the audience, because they justified to keep them coming back with more of the same crap in subsequent sequels (i.e. Jaws, and that goofy southern cop).

                It was really a shame.

                I forgot how much it had changed until I got to watch some of the uncut original JB with Connery where he didn't have a problem B* Slapping women and using his license to kill!!
