@@S.Thomas_7 oh so no videos for craig before the release of his final film? I mean your videos are the definition of hype!! It would be a shame if you dont release something before no time to die releases
I agree, especially when Roger Moore left the roll with his jokey portray of the character nobody was ready for a more dark and gritty sort of bond. Looking back on these movies they are absolutely brilliant.
@@praisethelordpig1212 Trouble with Craig and Brosnon they didn’t understand Bond. Connery and Dalton both did, and showed it on the screen. Roger was decent for the day, but did two to many.
My favourite bond ever. Such a shame he only did 2 films. This was my era growing up as a child. He was just so real. You just look at him in these films and thought this really is James Bond!
I agree the first ever bonds I watched was licensed to kill,tomorrow never dies and die another day when I was around 10 I’ve watched every bond since,multiple times and licence to kill still stands my favourite I always wish Dalton got a third but it is what it is
It’s interesting because he was known for being “the dark and intense one”, but I thought there was also a lot of genuine humor in his movies (particularly TLD) that doesn’t really get spoken about
@@anthonydpearson that’s the brilliance of his bond and what makes him so accurate for the role. He can be a cold blooded killer but a proper gentleman with a softer side.
@@wingsfan1450 The first draft for GoldenEye is available online. And it’s quite different from the finished version we got. A PTS sequence that sees Bond attending a wine auction and battling terrorists on a bullet train, Xenia killing her victims by targeting pressure points to induce heart attacks, a horseback chase through the streets of St Petersburg instead of a tank, a ski chase downhill with buzzsaw helicopters, and Augustus Trevelyan (Not Alec) planning to use the titular satellite weapon to destroy New York City. Imagine Dalton’s exchanges with Anthony Hopkins as Trevelyan. Would of been interesting.
@@LexingtonDeville984 The first drafts are always wildly different though. If Dalton had stayed in the role, the screenplay would have changed a lot from that anyway. Though it would still have been different to what we got with Brosnan. I'm torn on it, because while I'd have loved to have had Dalton in the Goldeneye that did happen, it wouldn't have happened the same if he were in it. Goldeneye and Licence to Kill are my two absolute favourite Bond movies of all time. If anything were to have been different, I'd rather Dalton had started in the role 1 or even 2 movies earlier instead of that later tat they made with Moore.
The most underrated Bond, ever! Dalton was the most accurate personification of Ian Fleming's vision of the deadly spy. His Shakespearean acting experience brought the original Bond to life. A real shame he was in only 2 JB films!! What a Bond!!
This man was robbed, I say robbed of at least 2-3 more classic bond movies. It’s such a shame, imagine how great just a 3rd movie or Dalton in Goldeneye would’ve been. One of the great cinematic tragedies in my opinion.
Wouldn't say he was "robbed". It was just how the situation was. He was all set for a third Bond film when the whole legal disputes happened. After they ended(all the way in 1994) he was sort of over the role. He was ready to come back for one more time but Albert Broccoli said that he's gotta come back for more than just one film. He respectfully declined. I think he had a good run, regardless. Set the staple for what would go on to become Daniel Craig's Bond.
My favorite Bond. I love the international espionage of The Living Daylights, and the up-close-and-personal of License to Kill. As much as I also love Goldeneye, I could've done with a few more Dalton entries too.
Dalton is the most underrated Bond ever. He read the Fleming novels to get into character, didn’t want to copy what Roger Moore had done, turned down the role twice because he was too young the first time, and turned in two of the most underrated Bond films in the series. For me, he’s my #2 Bond behind Connery. Were it not for all the lawsuits and legal issues in the early 90’s, he would of done at least two more before handing over the reigns to Brosnan. Imagine an alternate universe where Connery gets the novel version of Moonraker as his final outing, Lazenby gets a revenge trilogy, Moore has Octopussy as his swansong in 1981 and Dalton gets the role from 1983 onwards with a legacy of For Your Eyes Only, View to a Kill, Living Daylights, Licence to Kill, and Property of a Lady/Risico. Brosnan would get GoldenEye and everyone would be happy.
@@pmgodfrey5203 On Her Majesty’s Secret Service, You Only Live Twice, and Diamonds Are Forever (remove the camp, a better Tiffany Case, and Blofeld dies for good). I think those three would of made Lazenby a good Bond. Connery would have the Fleming Moonraker because Star Wars wasn’t around in the 60’s 😁
@Slave2PaperWithInkOn Agreed on FYEO and AVTAK but although I would love to have seen his OHMSS, he was only 22/23 when it was made/ released, and in those days he looked very young (The lion in winter, Wuthering Heights) wheras Bond was a mature man, so I think he was right to ask not to be considered. Better would have been around 1983 (Jane Eyre) or even as early as 1975 (Permission to kill). As the first writer says, in another universe...
He ticked all of the boxes. He looked the part and was utterly believable as a professional spy. He was smart, aware, questioning, intense, moody, had little faith in the competence of others (his early exchanges with Saunders) and very human; all very much how Fleming detailed the character. Aside from the attache case in From Russia with Love, Bond never relied on gadgets; more so his own resourcefulness. This was one of the few things that let Dalton's Bond films down imo - he was the perfect actor to show Bond getting out of scrape without the assistance of gadgets.
The best Bond IMO. A gentleman, a joker, and a killer. Yes, a joker, I do find his dry and sometimes brutal sense of humor very funny. He also says 'Shaken, not Stirred' the best out of any Bonds.

I was blown away by how great he was as a Bond! I bought the second one and it was just as good. I couldn't believe that there was another Bond that was on Sean Connery's level, AND HE ONLY MADE TWO MOVIES!
I have read all of Fleming's books and in my estimation, Timothy Dalton is the only actor that closely emulates the literary Bond. How awesome would have been if he starred in BBC TV adaptations of Fleming's novels !
That would have been interesting indeed, so long as they weren't as profoundly and disgustingly racist as some of Fleming's stuff. E.g, "Those terms included putting Odd-Job or ANY OTHER KOREAN firmly in place, which in Bond's estimation was lower than apes in the mammalian hierarchy." Ian Fleming, 'Goldfinger'
Timothy Dalton IS literally & figuratively James Bond from Ian Fleming's books, and that's why he is my all time favourite Bond. Daniel Craig is my 2nd favourite, then followed by Sean Connery. But as much as we wanted Dalton to have his 3rd bond film, it is better to leave us wanting more than outstaying his welcome. Connery, Moore, & Brosnan had absolute stinkers in their last Bond movies. Dalton gave us 2 great classic bond movies, albeit overlooked & underrated by casual moviegoers.
@@Modernww2fare You know.. I've been imagining what if Dalton did Casino Royale reboot in late 80s or early 90s. I think people would've gone batshit insane than they were in 2006. And Jennifer Connelly would've been perfect as Vesper. She & Dalton had amazing chemistry at the Rocketeer movie

Alas, the financial issues at MGM put paid to a third and (possibly) fourth Dalton outing. And I’m firmly in the ”Dalton should of done two more before Brosnan took over with GoldenEye" camp.
@@LexingtonDeville984 and I believe the reason why Goldeneye was so good was because the script was intended for Dalton. And coincidentally, Brosnan's next 3 bond movies were average at best (TND). TWINE & DAD both stunk really bad
I liked Roger Moore in the Saint and the Persueders, but, as Bond, he totally sucked. Dalton, however, nailed it. Mainly because of the bond girls being so soppy dragging him down he wasn't able to hit his stride!
Man, that was such a kickass edit! Watching this kind of makes me glad that we got the two movies that we got from Dalton. Yes, it's a shame that he didn't do more, but what we got was of such high quality that I'm very content with it. He is (and probably will for a long time be) my favorite Bond
Mine too. He takes his job so seriously, it feels different from the previous Bonds. It feels like duty to his mission is all he has left. But beyond all the previous Bond's he can't hide his emotional attachment to his duty. I also like how he is so intelligent. Rather than go in guns blazing he used deceit and espionage to complete the mission. Daniel Craig in my view just coulnd't get it right. He feels like a man trying to imitate James Bond without capturing the rich depth that Timothy Dalton gave us.
Out of all the actors who played 007 I do believe Dalton understood Fleming's Bond the most. I'd love if whoever plays the new Bond could either follow in his lead and read the novels as a 'blueprint' for their interpretation of the character, or at least ask Dalton himself for some advice. Great edit.
@@gandhibhagat285 Tbf I'd say the Bond series is generally great at casting their leads. I just think Dalton made a conscious effort to be Fleming's Bond, or at least put it to screen best he could. For what it's worth I still think there's much in Fleming's novels, particularly to do with Bond's character, which has yet to be explored in the film series.
To me Timothy Dalton is the definitive James Bond, not only is he the most accurate to the books but he was a true fan and was an advocate for keeping Fleming’s vision for the character intact, and he also had a perfect balance of the seriousness and dark humour needed for the role.
My fandom of OO7 really kicked off with The Living Daylights and to this day Tim Dalton is my favourite of them all. Not many think this way but I do. Dalton understood what Fleming wrote and he played Bond accordingly!
Well done. This was really good showcasing the fantastic Timothy Dalton as lan flemings James bond 007. Have always been a huge fan of Dalton as BOND and it's nice to see him getting the much overdue respect that he deserves.
Just saw “License to Kill” last night. Bond at his most ruthless. As Fleming intended and Dalton delivers. Watch closely. Dalton brings such a credible sense of determined vengeance on the screen it resonates in virtually every scene that, in many respects, surpasses Connery and his witty quips for every precarious occasion. There is a sense of unfettered realism in this picture from Bond’s everyday pedestrian attire to a minimum of ridiculous gadgets-no Aston to speak of-to the brutality and the sincere possibility Bond may just not make it out alive.
I honestly always forget that Timothy Dalton was James Bond. I always think of him from Hot Fuzz or The Rocketeer. Gonna need to go on a Bond marathon. Amazing editing as usual.
You know the thing with that is after three films I feel the quality only goes downhill. I feel Sean Connery's first three films were brilliant, but it was all downhill after that, with Diamons Are Forever I think being his worst film. Similar story with Roger Moore. His first three films were his best, and it went downhill afterwards, with A View To A Kill being one of the worst Bond films. Same thing with Pierce Brosnan. Even his films were not that good, but Die Another Day was another low point for the series. Daniel Craig same things. Casino Royale and Skyfall are brilliant films, but after that I think they were getting unbearable. Blowfeld as Bond's long lost brother. Who the hell wrote that? Timothy Dalton did two phenominal films and I would have liked him to do one more, but I'm glad he did do so many like the others. Some of the films became unbearable.
Always felt a bit sad that he didn't get a fair crack at the role.... He definitely had all the credentials. Great actor, with looks, brooding intensity and an amazing physical presence.
I am watching bond series in order of their release .. i just watched license to kill and it is the best bond movie till now ..and Timothy Dalton best James Bond. I wish we get to see more of him as bond.
Great Bond. Old Cubby called him to do three more in 1994 but he refused. It wasn't in his heart anymore. A pity, he really looked straight out Fleming books.
Just recently watched the Living Daylights again, and what a terrific Bond film it truly is. Dalton was superb in the role, and a breath of fresh air over the stale cheesiness of Moore. Wish we could have had more of him.
Dalton was a fucking beast as 007!! It saddens me that we didn’t get to see him in Goldeneye. Still an excellent entry in the series with Brosnan though
Roger Moore should have made Octopussy his last one. Timothy Dalton should have made A View To A kill and Goldeneye, total of 4, would have been awesome
I thought Timothy Dalton was spectacular as 007. I just, for the life of me, cannot figure out why so many people did not like him in the role. I also loved Maryam D’Abo in The Living Daylights. What a heart-tugger!!!
Dalton was by far the best bond. He even looked the part from head to toe. He played it as close to the books as possible. Bond was written as a tortured, reluctant killer. Calm and collected under pressure and silently aware of his unique abilities.
Great to see a lot of my fam here loving Timothy Dalton 's Bond.i Love him cause he has that great combination of intelligence,sophistication and badassness.
Dalton is easily the most underrated Bond. Despite only getting two films he is the closest to the books we have gotten so far. He also my #2 Bond of all time right behind Brosnan
"The Living Daylights"(1987) is so beautiful and glamorous movie! Like a great cognac(Remy Martin XO). "Licence To Kill"(1989) is brutal and dirty like some rough bourbon! And I like both of them!!! Great actor, TIMOTHY DALTON!!!
If you think about it, Timothy Dalton as Bond had almost the exact look of Ian Flemming’s description of Bond in his novels, he was almost exactly what Fleming imagined Bond to look like, therefore Dalton was one of the best Bonds
With your name it's weird because l sadly lost my Dad two days ago with dementia and ongoing health issues. Bond is always been around in my childhood in the 70's. Then back in 1992 i decided to buy all vhs tapes of Bond.(including never say never) and sheduled them on a Monday night when l finished work from Sept through to Dec. Enjoy everyone and when timothy dalton's time arrived it was like a new era. Gritty, (Then) modern, Fresh and now. Then by next week it was all over. What a pity he didn't see out his contract on screen. Because he WAS the current James Bond.
I personally love him as Bond; I think he nailed Ian Fleming's character and for me is the most interesting and attractive 007. He has something a little more intense, subtly dark, complex and intelligent, yet human and more realistic in his interpretation.
Licence to Kill..... Para mí es una de las mejores películas de James Bond.. Post Sean Connery..... Bien lograda y muy buena trama.. Excelente Timothy Dalton y Robert Davi!!
Let’s just take a moment to appreciate the effort that went into making this clip. Outstanding editing and a reminder that I need to watch both Dalton Bond movies immediately. Such a shame he only did the two. He really was class
License to kill is my favorite Bond film ever; great song, characters, cast, plot etc. I think it was the first time I think Bond went rogue in the movies and had a genuine reason. Craig does it so often, either retired, rogue etc. its lost all relevance.
The best Bond out there whom mainstream audiences werent ready for and financial and legal wrangles robbed us of seeing a few more films. Brilliant portrayel of Bond, closest to the book and these two films are great.
My absolute favourite Bond actor. I'm so glad I found many like minded people through this video and the comment section. You guys are the best! Timothy Dalton's darker and more serious interpretation has been my favourite ever since I first saw him in a bond film. I grew up with the Brosnan Bonds and now of course with the five Daniel Craig films (born in '86) but I really just like Dalton the best. For me, he also has that perfect bond look. Suave, focused, dangerous and hyper intelligent. Simply the full package, if you ask me.
Most underrated Bond ever. Some of the best moments in his two films, would loved to have seen him do more but Pierce did a simply superb job, in what is arguably the best Bond film in the series, Goldeneye!
Timothy Dalton is one of the if not the most underrated Bond of them all ~ both of their Bonds movies were superb as his stone cold acting (as true Fleming's British spy from his novels) 😎🔫 I'm just sorry that he didn't get chance to play in more movies from that amazing franchise (maybe he could step in Bond's shoes a bit earlier (in the later Moore era) 😉
Great video! I feel like I'm always that annoying guy who when people praise Craig for being tough has to point out that Dalton in fact was the first badass Bond... But I can't help it. Dalton is and will always be the best 007.
And that really pisses me off Dalton should’ve got some praise yourself get the shaft and Daniel. What the hell never liked him never will is bond because he just ripped the character right out of Timothy Dalton’s, and that should not be allowed to happen and he took Timothy‘s thunder away and that is unfair
I just watched the Dalton movies. Holy crap, Craig is the Bond i was most fond of but even on two movies Dalton’s performance stacks up against anyone 🔥🔥
Timothy Dalton and Daniel Craig perfected the role of James Bond after Sean Connery and Roger Moore retired ........ They both brought their own tough style of playing James Bond to the screen ....

@@LexingtonDeville984 and I believe the reason why Goldeneye was so good was because the script was intended for Dalton.
And coincidentally, Brosnan's next 3 bond movies were average at best (TND). TWINE & DAD both stunk really bad
Such a massively confident man Timothy Dalton is. Wow. One of the Best fits in Bond movies
Timothy Dalton's accent is like sharp surgical instruments, it has a painful precision. I love this Bond, makes me want him more, good Lord!
I liked Roger Moore in the Saint and the Persueders, but, as Bond, he totally sucked. Dalton, however, nailed it.
Mainly because of the bond girls being so soppy dragging him down he wasn't able to hit his stride!
Not just his accent, his voice is sharp and overwhelming as well.
Saw Licence To Kill in the cinema in 89, blew me away, it's what we needed after the Moore era of tongue in cheek.
The Living Daylights was great too but I agree Licence to Kill was Dalton’s best outing
Just saw it yesterday, what a masterpiece 🤩🔥
That was class. Two amazing Bond films with a brilliant Bond. Remember when Bond was a spy and not rambo? No time to die is dreadful!
Man, that was such a kickass edit! Watching this kind of makes me glad that we got the two movies that we got from Dalton. Yes, it's a shame that he didn't do more, but what we got was of such high quality that I'm very content with it. He is (and probably will for a long time be) my favorite Bond
Mine too. He takes his job so seriously, it feels different from the previous Bonds. It feels like duty to his mission is all he has left. But beyond all the previous Bond's he can't hide his emotional attachment to his duty.
I also like how he is so intelligent. Rather than go in guns blazing he used deceit and espionage to complete the mission.
Daniel Craig in my view just coulnd't get it right. He feels like a man trying to imitate James Bond without capturing the rich depth that Timothy Dalton gave us.
Out of all the actors who played 007 I do believe Dalton understood Fleming's Bond the most. I'd love if whoever plays the new Bond could either follow in his lead and read the novels as a 'blueprint' for their interpretation of the character, or at least ask Dalton himself for some advice. Great edit.
@@gandhibhagat285 Tbf I'd say the Bond series is generally great at casting their leads. I just think Dalton made a conscious effort to be Fleming's Bond, or at least put it to screen best he could. For what it's worth I still think there's much in Fleming's novels, particularly to do with Bond's character, which has yet to be explored in the film series.
I’m a big fan of Craig’s Bond :)
I paused the video upfront to give it a like and a comment. Dalton’s Bond is best, and I’m sure this is gonna be an elite tier edit.
The is James Bond as Ian Fleming description in the books.
Ladies and Gentlemen, Timothy Dalton the most underrated 007!
No, not underrated. Simply the Best!
Timolthy Dalton was one of the greatest Bond ever had in the franchaise and eventually got the pride he deserved.
Dalton is my favourite, it's really nice seeing his portrayal getting this much appreciation!! Great video!
To me Timothy Dalton is the definitive James Bond, not only is he the most accurate to the books but he was a true fan and was an advocate for keeping Fleming’s vision for the character intact, and he also had a perfect balance of the seriousness and dark humour needed for the role.
Timothy Dalton the most underrated bond ever. His films never got the recognition they deserved. He was brilliant
My fandom of OO7 really kicked off with The Living Daylights and to this day Tim Dalton is my favourite of them all. Not many think this way but I do. Dalton understood what Fleming wrote and he played Bond accordingly!
Well done. This was really good showcasing the fantastic Timothy Dalton as lan flemings James bond 007. Have always been a huge fan of Dalton as BOND and it's nice to see him getting the much overdue respect that he deserves.
He was perfect. An honest portrayal by a superior actor.
Just saw “License to Kill” last night. Bond at his most ruthless. As Fleming intended and Dalton delivers.
Watch closely. Dalton brings such a credible sense of determined vengeance on the screen it resonates in virtually every scene that, in many respects, surpasses Connery and his witty quips for every precarious occasion.
There is a sense of unfettered realism in this picture from Bond’s everyday pedestrian attire to a minimum of ridiculous gadgets-no Aston to speak of-to the brutality and the sincere possibility Bond may just not make it out alive.
Dalton was what Bond is all about
I honestly always forget that Timothy Dalton was James Bond. I always think of him from Hot Fuzz or The Rocketeer. Gonna need to go on a Bond marathon. Amazing editing as usual.
He was so good in Hot Fuzz
I love Dalton's Bond, believable as a dangerous and fully professional agent. I wish he did at least 4 outings.
You know the thing with that is after three films I feel the quality only goes downhill.
I feel Sean Connery's first three films were brilliant, but it was all downhill after that, with Diamons Are Forever I think being his worst film. Similar story with Roger Moore. His first three films were his best, and it went downhill afterwards, with A View To A Kill being one of the worst Bond films. Same thing with Pierce Brosnan. Even his films were not that good, but Die Another Day was another low point for the series.
Daniel Craig same things. Casino Royale and Skyfall are brilliant films, but after that I think they were getting unbearable. Blowfeld as Bond's long lost brother. Who the hell wrote that?
Timothy Dalton did two phenominal films and I would have liked him to do one more, but I'm glad he did do so many like the others. Some of the films became unbearable.
@@A203D Thunderball and Goldeneye were fantastic.
Recently rewatched Daltons two 007 films. He may be my fave Bond after Connery....wow..way ahead of his time
Well friggin’ done sir!! Timothy Dalton has always been my favorite post-Connery Bond and he always will be.
True legend! Loved Timothy as Bond, sad we didn't get more with him.
Always felt a bit sad that he didn't get a fair crack at the role.... He definitely had all the credentials. Great actor, with looks, brooding intensity and an amazing physical presence.
Not to mention he read the novels and understands the type of character Ian Fleming had created
1.89, blue eyes, beautiful voice, is very superb and fancy
Top notch work 👌. Nice to see Dalton’s Bond get the appreciation it deserves.
Timothy Dalton is excellent in the role and licence to kill is easily one of the best Bond films. It’s a crime he only got two movies!
I am watching bond series in order of their release .. i just watched license to kill and it is the best bond movie till now ..and Timothy Dalton best James Bond. I wish we get to see more of him as bond.
Great Bond. Old Cubby called him to do three more in 1994 but he refused. It wasn't in his heart anymore. A pity, he really looked straight out Fleming books.
Definitely the most diligent 007, he’s up there with Connery.
Timothy dalton had the best dominating voice ever.
@@Manul23392 really and I was very sexy
@@Manul23392 yes he did
Loved Tim Dalton's portrayal of Bond. He went back to the original tough and gritty Bond as written so well by Ian Fleming. A really good actor too.
"My interest in her is purely professional." - words to live by, gents.
This was so well put together that i thought it was official MGM channel. Well done man 😎
Just recently watched the Living Daylights again, and what a terrific Bond film it truly is. Dalton was superb in the role, and a breath of fresh air over the stale cheesiness of Moore. Wish we could have had more of him.
This is genuinely amazing! I'm really loving this.
I love this! A wonderful tribute to one of my favorite Bonds ever!
Dalton put more into 2 films than others can do in 10.
Bullshit opinion but okay.
hell no he is 100% correct. Dalton even read the books
@@EnjoyingChaotics you should know this man.
@@EnjoyingChaotics looks like someone never actually read the books only watching the movies lol
@@EnjoyingChaotics nah it’s a correct opinion. Your response is bullshit but okay.
Dalton was a fucking beast as 007!! It saddens me that we didn’t get to see him in Goldeneye. Still an excellent entry in the series with Brosnan though
Roger Moore should have made Octopussy his last one. Timothy Dalton should have made A View To A kill and Goldeneye, total of 4, would have been awesome
I love this compilation!!! Thank you!
Timothy's take was a breath of fresh air. He's just like Sir Ian Fleming's novels. This collection is an amazing tribute
Bravo sir! You know your craft! Probablythe best Tim Dalton tribute on the net! Keep it going! ;)
My favourite Bond edited by my favourite YT editor. Awesome stuff!
I thought Timothy Dalton was spectacular as 007. I just, for the life of me, cannot figure out why so many people did not like him in the role. I also loved Maryam D’Abo in The Living Daylights. What a heart-tugger!!!
Dalton was by far the best bond. He even looked the part from head to toe. He played it as close to the books as possible. Bond was written as a tortured, reluctant killer. Calm and collected under pressure and silently aware of his unique abilities.
Great to see a lot of my fam here loving Timothy Dalton 's Bond.i Love him cause he has that great combination of intelligence,sophistication and badassness.
Timothy Dalton did 2 Bond movies but his persona lives on to be the best British Spy movies, he is a legend...
I love this !!! Timothy Dalton is my favourite Bond. Wish you had done the original advertising for the movies!
Dalton is easily the most underrated Bond. Despite only getting two films he is the closest to the books we have gotten so far. He also my #2 Bond of all time right behind Brosnan
To be fair his films are both quality over quantity. They are probably the best in the series.
Same here. For me, Connery is the best Bond, but Dalton’s interpretation is my favourite.
Agree, except TD #1 for me; closest to Fleming's Bond, with Connery the next nearest, despite his last two films being poor.
Same here man!!
One of my favorite Bond and the best gunbarrell.
"The Living Daylights"(1987) is so beautiful and glamorous movie! Like a great cognac(Remy Martin XO). "Licence To Kill"(1989) is brutal and dirty like some rough bourbon! And I like both of them!!! Great actor, TIMOTHY DALTON!!!
@@renekauts8323 hi
Great work. Licensed to kill was a great film, loved the mixing.
If you think about it, Timothy Dalton as Bond had almost the exact look of Ian Flemming’s description of Bond in his novels, he was almost exactly what Fleming imagined Bond to look like, therefore Dalton was one of the best Bonds
A great video edit showcasing a highly underrated James Bond. Hats off to Timothy Dalton.
Great work on this . Dalton is after the books
0:11 -> That iconic gaze is picture perfect Bond, James bond, Dalton is flawless, 100% intensity
With your name it's weird because l sadly lost my Dad two days ago with dementia and ongoing health issues. Bond is always been around in my childhood in the 70's. Then back in 1992 i decided to buy all vhs tapes of Bond.(including never say never) and sheduled them on a Monday night when l finished work from Sept through to Dec. Enjoy everyone and when timothy dalton's time arrived it was like a new era. Gritty, (Then) modern, Fresh and now. Then by next week it was all over. What a pity he didn't see out his contract on screen. Because he WAS the current James Bond.
When he says, "I got the message" his delivery all but cracks the screen with its sheer intensity...
I personally love him as Bond; I think he nailed Ian Fleming's character and for me is the most interesting and attractive 007. He has something a little more intense, subtly dark, complex and intelligent, yet human and more realistic in his interpretation.
Best professional James bond ever
Licence to Kill..... Para mí es una de las mejores películas de James Bond.. Post Sean Connery..... Bien lograda y muy buena trama.. Excelente Timothy Dalton y Robert Davi!!
“I gave him the booot” I 🖤ed it when he would say a one-liner but wouldn’t have time too complete the punchline. Nobody does it better
Well done, this was pure class.
Let’s just take a moment to appreciate the effort that went into making this clip. Outstanding editing and a reminder that I need to watch both Dalton Bond movies immediately. Such a shame he only did the two. He really was class
I have been watching this montage a few times and I think it's really well done, like a trailer for both movies. Love it :))))
License to kill is my favorite Bond film ever; great song, characters, cast, plot etc. I think it was the first time I think Bond went rogue in the movies and had a genuine reason. Craig does it so often, either retired, rogue etc. its lost all relevance.
Timothy Dalton was a fantastic James Bond and it is a shame we only got two James Bond movies with him as 007.
Only Sean comes even close to Dalton, the ultimate 007
My favourite Bond. He captured the essence of the character, flaws and all 👍🏻💙
The best Bond out there whom mainstream audiences werent ready for and financial and legal wrangles robbed us of seeing a few more films.
Brilliant portrayel of Bond, closest to the book and these two films are great.
I swear if this was screened in theaters people will wanna fucking watch the movies!!
Incredible!!!!
My absolute favourite Bond actor. I'm so glad I found many like minded people through this video and the comment section. You guys are the best!
Timothy Dalton's darker and more serious interpretation has been my favourite ever since I first saw him in a bond film. I grew up with the Brosnan Bonds and now of course with the five Daniel Craig films (born in '86) but I really just like Dalton the best. For me, he also has that perfect bond look. Suave, focused, dangerous and hyper intelligent. Simply the full package, if you ask me.
His two movies were superb!! They ought to have kept him on for ‘Golden eye’
Most underrated Bond ever. Some of the best moments in his two films, would loved to have seen him do more but Pierce did a simply superb job, in what is arguably the best Bond film in the series, Goldeneye!
Timothy Dalton is one of the if not the most underrated Bond of them all ~ both of their Bonds movies were superb as his stone cold acting (as true Fleming's British spy from his novels) 😎🔫
I'm just sorry that he didn't get chance to play in more movies from that amazing franchise (maybe he could step in Bond's shoes a bit earlier (in the later Moore era) 😉
Great video! I feel like I'm always that annoying guy who when people praise Craig for being tough has to point out that Dalton in fact was the first badass Bond... But I can't help it. Dalton is and will always be the best 007.
And that really pisses me off Dalton should’ve got some praise yourself get the shaft and Daniel. What the hell never liked him never will is bond because he just ripped the character right out of Timothy Dalton’s, and that should not be allowed to happen and he took Timothy‘s thunder away and that is unfair
Definitely should have included the balancing tanker. One of the greatest Bond stunts of any era.
Outstanding creation... if only EON had had this much talent when putting together the trailers.
Love Timothy Dalton as 007, but don't forget Carey Lowell in License to kill as sexiest Bond Girl in James Bond History
good try, but real men of culture know Xenia Onnatop is the sexiest.
Dalton was my Bond growing up. He was truly ahead of his time. Craig owes Dalton.
I just watched the Dalton movies. Holy crap, Craig is the Bond i was most fond of but even on two movies Dalton’s performance stacks up against anyone 🔥🔥
My favourite Bond!
Thanks for a great video 👍
Timothy Dalton and Daniel Craig perfected the role of James Bond after Sean Connery and Roger Moore retired ........ They both brought their own tough style of playing James Bond to the screen ....
Superbly done this video. Every time I watch it I like it more.
Love this edit man! I would use this to persuade my friends that Dalton was a great Bond. He was so ahead of his time.
