Connery was first and best, but Daniel Craig is fantastic. I'll be the minority here and say that after seeing every Bond film many times over, my personal overall favourite is On Her Majesty's Secret Service. Best cinematography, some of the best editing, best portrayal of a villain, and George Lazenby was truly better than people say he was. Most people that say he was terrible have not even seen the film. He also has the distinction of being the youngest Bond ever - 27 at the time of filming. And how about Diana Rigg as the only Bond girl he ever marries...she was gorgeous.

+1 for Diana Rigg (and her Lotus Elan in the Avengers). OHMSS is one of my favorites for the reasons already mentioned along with the fact that it brought a return to more closely following Ian Fleming's books. If you haven't read the books, give them a try, Fleming was quite the car guy and he was very eloquent in all his writing.

Exactly. It's funny because people were very disappointed when the Timothy Dalton films were released. They thought they were too serious and lacked the humour of Roger's films, but the reality was they were more true to the books. For anyone out there that hasn't seen it yet, do yourself the favour of watching the documentary "Everything or Nothing", which documents all the films. It's fantastic.
