Which Bond would you be if you could be him and why?

I’d be Connery’s Bond because he has everything: charm, humour, toughness, sarcasm, lithe physique, not too muscular, not posh and wore the best suits and clothes in the series—apart from in DAF.

    Connery's Bond - look at the way he gets all of those girls, this wouldn't work today anymore unless you're him :))

    Probably Moore cuz he has the most fun, has the most sex, and all while having to do the least amount of work.

    Moore. He has the most fun, and I've always had a hankering to go to Rio.

    Brosnan....effortless charm, sophisticated, intelligent, funny, ruthless. Essentially the Bond all-rounder...what a life!

    Connery, just to walk in the grey 3 piece suit :)) Oh and I prefer this one liners the most of almost al the Bonds. He had some great action and the most beautiful women IMO. Honey Rider, Tatiana, Pussy, DOMINO. Plus having a fight in a volcano must be awesome.

    Moore or Brosnan.

    Moore because his Bond was effortless, he barely broke a sweat and he still did some of the most exciting stuff. And plus - he was still picking up women at 57! :D :D

    Brosnan because he did the most bada** stuff, and he had the hottest women as well - Natalya, Wai Lin, Christmas Jones and Jinx - awesome! However, he does have to go through over a year of torture, so that's a bit off putting.

    So, Moore it is!

    :)) Very, very true.

    For myself, I'd have to say Connery. It's no wonder that nobody picks Craigger; his path has been a tough one all 'round :#

    I'd also say I'd love to be Connery's Bond but fear of falling to the self-absorbed Adonis effect, in which I'd just love to hear myself say anything, sounding in that deep, masculine voice of his...and I'd take involuntary pauses at the sight of mirrors, especially mirror-lined corridors that would allow me to admire how cool I walk :)) Moore would be a close second and as others said, he lived the most effortless incarnation of Bond and nowadays I'm about that, going about the fun of life as effortlessly as possible. -{

    Difficult choice, as even though I'm a Bond fan, I wouldn't want an assassin's life.

    Having said that, I'll join Devereaux and Robbo88. Brozzer for me.

    After all, I'd like to have that BMW in TND.

    Roger Moore all the way. Bang the most girls. Had the most fun. And also saved the world the most. Also Moore seems to be the most likeable guy. Earns a lot of respect from his peers. Etc.
    Brosnan and Connery next.
    Would not wanna be Lazenby to be honest. Tracy dying would be terrible to live through. Dalton would be pretty full on as well. Not to mention Craig!

    I'd want to be friends with you. And maybe travel the world with you. But what a terrible life you have!

    Is anyone tempted to say Craig in SP.
    I mean. He seemed to be having a lot of fun. Swann was great :x

    The kilt wasn't part of Bond's wardrobe, he just borrowed it from Sir Hillary. The ruffled shirts, however, were.

    Roger Moore in FYEO.

    I'd love to drive a Citroen like that, sleep with the Countess, have a great dinner and win at the casino. Plus, climb that rock.

    It's an interesting question depending on the angle.

    In terms of overall charm, masculinity, smoothness, intelligence and such, Connery.

    In terms of fun, probably Moore. But here's the thing: Connery's Bond really never suffered great loss, the closest he came being Aki in You Only Live Twice. For the most part, he was spared deep emotional challenges.

    Lazenby, Moore, and Dalton, however, have all suffered from Tracy's loss. There's no mention in the Brosnan films that I can recall of that, but he has Paris and, I suppose, Elektra, who the film suggested was a kind of Tracy figure.

    Craig's Bond, however, has suffered the most. Three films have dealt with the lingering effects of Vesper, and the one that didn't took M. In fact, of all the Bonds, his is the least able to enjoy a normal or frivolous life.

    I would have to say Daniel Craig. For his seriousness, cold humanity and his unpredictable comedy. Also for his slight arrogance.
