I can only assume you were not alive when he was playing the role......for years he WAS actually known as James Bond rather than Shaun Connery........he more or less invented the role and made it uniquely his own by which all others were to follow. Most people from my generation have never really accepted those that followed, for us there was only ever one James Bond and forever will be only one James Bond and that is Shaun Connery’s portrayal as is embedded forever in our memories. Shaun Connery creepy, WTF are you on about.....you obviously threw that in for effect.
Sadly I am old enough to remember. . He’s a hairy old man who sleeps with women 20- 30 years younger than himself . In any other walk of life that would be seen as creepy . Yuk . Oh and he isn’t even a very good actor in my opinion.
You sound pretty creepy yourself.....as such I’m outa here!
FFS - this thread has made me go full Partridge and put together a Bond playlist, so thanks for that. Fwiw, top 3 in no particular order would be Nobody Does It Better, Skyfall and possibly A View To a Kill, which I've always thought is a very underrated track. Live and Let Die is obviously up there too, and even the Sam Smith one which I hated at the time I now find to be half-decent. The Chris Cornell tune, which I barely knew before this thread, is a belter - really like it.

Confirmed that theme for Bond 25, No Time To Die. Will be written and performed by Billie Eilish
Great, can't wait to hear it, sure she'll smash it. Not my usual cup of tea is Billie but there is something about her music I like. 'Everything I Wanted' is in my head constantly at the moment. Her brother Finneas is very talented too.
Formulaic borefest. Doesn't deserve a place on this "Best..." thread.
Just as a point of order. I posted it here as it was the thread used when discussing Billie Eilish getting the gig last month. Wasn't worth starting a new thread was it.

I actually quite like The Living Daylights but it is quite hard to admit. A View to a Kill not bad either.

We have all the time in the World - classic bond track that Guinness used for an ad back in the eighties.

I'm sure you'd find the time if you listened to that too many times!
