You are right! I get a kick out of watching Michael Lonsdale (as Drax) laugh during a line and it made the final cut. Check it out when you watch Moonraker...again.
His audio commentaries are fantastic. It’s basically like watching the film with him, his memory for his co-stars, stuntmen and crew is truly commendable.
Roger Moore was in his absolute prime as 'James Bond' in the late 1970s. The Spy Who Loved Me (1977) & Moonraker (1979) are brilliantly entertaining and so rewatchable !
@@darrenfry4695 I'm 58 now so I'm biased but I think Moore could have done another two films as Bond. Any Hollywood scouts out there? (I'm willing to be a reimagined namesake as the next Bond.).
Roger Moore is my fave Bond. Love Live and Let Die and The Spy Who Loved me. They are my favourites. You can keep the recent ones. I'll still be watching these for the next 40 years :)

Golden Gun could have been great. James Bond versus the world's greatest assassin played by Christopher Lee. Unfortunately, it's just a random assembly of 70's tropes, a dumbbell Bond girl, topped off with a duel that was only mildly interesting.
@@Hydrograd57 Live and Let Die is better. The main villain sub par, too many chase scenes, but Moore is on point and the sub-villains are good. I wouldn't call it great but it gets the job done.
He was definitely the light, campy bond (Though diamonds are forever started that trend before he assumed the role), but I'm never bored watching his 007. The missions were pure, escapist fun. Sir roger seemed to genuinely love playing the role, and among the actors was its biggest ambassador. Truly the english gentleman. R.I.P
@@bonghunezhou5051 Daniel Craig only did the last movie for the money and has been trying to distance himself from the franchise for several films now.
Roger Moore was always my favourite. To explain.... I'm 45 now, so my parents took me to see Live and Let Die at the drive-in when I was 4 years old. I really enjoyed the film. And it's definitely my favourite Bond theme by the man,the myth,the legend.....Sir Paul McCartney! So I always liked his take on Bond the best.😁
He’s my second favorite behind Connery, (I can’t help it, I was introduced to Bond with Connery. My theory is that which ever actor you first see and love the Bond movies, THAT is your forever favorite)! Anyway, I still love Moore’s Bond movies! Even with all the comedy and silliness, Moore ALWAYS carried on with charm, wit, and grace! Speaking of Grace, Ms Jones with older Bond? She would have broke his back like a twig!! 🤣🤣🤣
@@SB992REBORN I too loved Roger as Bond! The only weakness was in some of the writing and direction. I’m a Sean Guy, but Roger was always the best through the ‘70s!!
Moonraker was the first James Bond I ever saw….and will always have a special place in my heart. Roger, for me, is the best Bond. He was so smooth and his Bonds were so much fun. I can watch them over and over again and they always make me smile….even The Man With The Golden Gun! The current Bond is so worthy and serious….it’s depressing! I’m hoping the new Bond has a big chunk of Moore’s lightness
Sasha H ~ Yeah, The villain Jaws had a girlfriend called “Dolly” And when they first met after rescuing him from a cable car accident , They both smiled and the Love connection was the simple fact that they both had metal mouth. Yes that’s right Dolly had Braces! However that memory that thousands of different individuals from all around the world is No longer in our History. Very, Very Strange, because it doesn’t make sense without the Metal Mouth. Does anyone else share the same memories ?
Connery was the original film Bond! And having stamped his personality onto the role, he was the one to match! A great shame for Lazenby, that he had to follow Connery! Without that major disadvantage, he might have succeeded, in his own interpretation of the role! Otherwise, Moore did well; as did Craig ... but both were very much aided and abetted, by not needing to match up to Connery, per se!
Same here. Dalton was/is amazing as an actor, and brought a realism and silent rage to his films. But I grew up on Moore, and those movies were fun fun fun, and he had that dry, unforgettable humour.
Roger was an excellent Bond. He was a lady’s man which was most intriguing. Being a tough guy came secondary. He had to outsmart his opponents just as much as out toughen them and he was given excellent gadgets, more so than Sean Connery had. I loved all his movies except a view to a kill in which I thought he was too old, even though it was still a good movie
Golden Gun is under rated. If anything because the cinematography and editing is flawless and is one of the best looking films of the 70s. Bond was primal and surviving on wits, and its the most unique of the classic Bond films with a role reversal of Bond vs Scaramanga and at times is impressively surreal.. All the remaining Moore films were the same damn plot with different actors.
I disagree with you about the remaining Moore films, but I will say you are right in that The Man With The Golden Gun is undderated. I saw it recently and it was better than I remember. The one downfall being bringing back Sheriff JW Pepper.
@@mercuryrising2424 I didn't even mind the sheriff. Yeah he didn't belong in the movie, but it was hilarious to me because of that, and the movie as a whole is a great time capsule. Even the gripes of bond being a dick, wasn't he always? ;)
Roger Moore will always be my favorite Bond and Man With the Golden Gun will always be my favorite Bond film. When I was a kid in the 90s I was introduced to Roger Moore and Sean Connery through James Bond by my uncle, but the one that always stuck with me was Roger Moore's Bond films. They will always have a special place for me, as those films are what launched my love for James Bond.
LALD is my favorite Bond. For me, it has everything. Great cast, great villains, great action and great comedy (with JW Pepper). It's the one Bond i'd choose if I could choose only 1...
"What are you Boy? Some sorta DOOOMS-DAY mash-eeen?" "Eh Sheriff, would you mind....?", "J.W. - this here Limey's a kinda secret agent..." "SECRET AGENT? On WHOOOOOSE SAHHHD?" Never gets old.
Moonraker packs a lot of movie in. I like it, and Live and Let die is great too. Moore made some great bond movies, they were a nice balance of action, espionage and fun.
Roger Moore made the best Bond movies in terms technical achievement in action and stunts. His performances were brilliant, and he was known to do a lot of the action and stunts. His portrayal of Bond was also excellent, sometimes psychotic when dispatching villainous foes, sometimes even sympathetic, he was very lovable and charismatic, a real star. Live and Let Die was brilliant.
I already knew I would love A View to A Kill.. MTV did great to promote it, but it was Angel Tanya Roberts that sold, me immediately. I got to watch A View To A Kill, in The Bay Area. I had no idea I would live in San Francisco 4 years later. I'm a Zonie, born and raised, but have lived in San Francisco since the Loma Prieta.
My partner mentioned to me, why I loved Moonraker. Which I did not know "you like it because she looks like Charlie's Angels" I realized he was right. I mentioned to him that Jaclyn was up for the part. I'm an Angel fan, and I know that from, well, I lost track on Angel knowledge. Lois Chile's has a Shelly Hack appeal, "The Doctor"
I remember seeing Live and Let Die and The Man With The Golden Gun on a double bill when I was a teenager, and I was completely blown away. When I watch them now, even though they are a bit goofy in parts, I still have a soft spot for them. They have an early 70s flamboyance that is really fun.
Been to his Grave in Monaco... he looks over this place he loved. Very sad to see a person you know from his movies and TV shows, in his resting place. He gave me childhood memories that I loved so much about movies and TVs Golden age..
I kinda love a view to a kill. Villain is great, has a brilliant theme song and I love the opening music as well. Also really love how the movie allows bond to have some heroic stoic moments.
I often feel guilty for liking A View To A Kill so much but it's true. Christopher Walken as Max Zorin was fantastic and Grace Jones as May Day almost steals the show. Stacy Sutton is a pretty mediocre Bond girl as is Fiona Fullerton. But I still really like it. It's even got Patrick MacNee as Sir Godfrey Tippet! What's not to like. 😉😒😊
I love Live and Let Die. And Kananga's death is one of the most memorable. Obviously they couldn't have done it realistically because an exploding human body would cause a lot more mess than that. But you probably couldn't get that kind of graphic scene in a movie like this.
For me, TMWTGG is not as enjoyable as the best Bond movies, and one that didn't age too well IMO. Roger Moore is kind of a bully in this one. However, I'm also of the opinion that even the bad Bond movies have something good, and here it's Scaramanga. Christopher Lee is suave yet still menacing, a perfect nemesis to Bond. Such a pity that their final showdown is a bit of a letdown.
Ye I never minded it either. Ironically one of the downsides of the movie for me is for the same reason people seem to think it was a strength of the movie which is the main villain. I actually thought he wasn't a great villain & lacked badassery. I like the suave & him acting cool with Bond towards the end, but he just didn't do it for me.
The reason for the Tiger ‘sit’ scene in Octopussy which is missed by non-British people is because of a woman dog trainer in the 70s/80s called Barbara Woodhouse. She used to say ‘sit’ in a really distinctive way and that line was to make a joke of that.
Incredible that LULU just turned 73 only 2 days ago! Such a talented singer (who still performs!) that did such an incredible job in "To Sir, with love"!
My personal Moore Bond ranking is as follows from least favorite to most favorite. A View to a Kill The Man with the Golden Gun Moonraker Octopussy The Spy Who Loved Me Live and Let Die For Your Eyes Only
Roger Moore is my favourite Bond and A view to a kill i believe is if not the first...one of the first Bond films i watched as a child. Watching this kinda brought back memories, especially i remember Grace Jones, she had her impact in this movie for sure
I believe that my favorite James Bond movie is for your eyes only. It was the first James Bond movie I saw in the movie theater. Prior to that I had seen the previous James Bond movies on VHS. My dad had a friend who had taped them all off of the late movie. However, I had become a fan. To this day for your eyes only and Octopussy are dear to my heart.
Роджер Мурр самый бесподобный очаровательный Бонд настоящий англичанин типаж и серии лучшие до сих пор для меня изредка пересматриваю с изумительными изобретениями и заставками из песен ну и самые красивые женщины и сюжеты
Moore has always been my favorite Bond actor. His films may not always be critically seen as good, but they’re some of my favorites. The Spy Who Loved Me is a masterpiece. Yaphet Kotto is also a very cool actor.
Been a Bond fan since first seeing Goldfinger in 1964. I saw The Man With the Golden Gun once in the theater and have never watched it a second time. It’s the only Bond film I can say that about. What a stinker.
THE SPY WHO LOVED ME theme song just went up a notch. I never thought of it as being on the theme of competition. It fits the theme of the movie even better than I thought.
I think it's ironic that my favorite era of James Bond is the silly, over-the-top supervillain with a secret lair and shark tanks etc. era yet my favorite of all 7 Moore movies is For Your Eyes Only, the most, grounded, realistic and serious one. P.S. For Your Eyes Only has sharks but no shark tanks cuz the shark action takes place in open international waters
I love Connery, Dalton, and Craig too, yet, I am of a certain age where Roger Moore will always be my favorite Bond. He just naturally had the chemistry of fun and cool at the same time, similar to Terrence Hill in Italian Westerns, even as a senior! None of his movies were my favorite 007 films; that probably has to go to "Dr No", or, "Casino Royale", or, my true favorite; "OHMSS"! Yet, his were the funnest and he was always so dynamic and charismatic at the same time!
For Your Eyes Only is one of the highlight in Sir Roger Moore's era. Probably because he seemed believable as Bond and he did the spy stuff. And the characters seemed believable rather than being superhuman.
Connery and Bronsan are my James Bonds as I have seen their movies the most. Roger Moore was pretty good. Just a tad too snobbish and couldn't be bothered to fight attitude. The flip side is Daniel Craigs take which is extremely Jason Bourneish with almost no gadgets. DAMN GOOD. Just very different. Moonraker is fantastic. So over the top you just can't help but laugh while watching it over and over.
That "Sit" gag with the tiger, was a reference to a well known TV dog trainer called Barbara Woodhouse at the time, who's catchphrase was constantly mimicked by impersonators on UK TV.
I LOVE Live and Let Die…though it is dated that is also part of its charm. I love the locations, the villains, Moore’s rookie outing shows he hasn’t mastered Bond, but his effortless charm shows through…It’s actually one of my go-to films in the series.
I reshaped Roger Moore in an indirect James Bond story in my Zorro Series but we are living at a very difficult time after the bloody covid.19 pandemic, began in the year 2000 and this is 22 years since, I will be filmed in southern Spain, he was my only James Bond ever
The Bond films with Roger Moore are always so rewatchable..

Roger Moore my favorite Bond, he was suave, charming and had great sense of humor, he never took himself too seriously even in real life.
Roger Moore was in his absolute prime as 'James Bond' in the late 1970s.
The Spy Who Loved Me (1977) & Moonraker (1979) are brilliantly entertaining and so rewatchable !
He was in his 50/s so he was a middle age bond at the best
I agree, maybe 'middle age' as 'Darren' points out, but that WAS his prime. He seemed vibrant and timeless his whole life.

''On an all-time high'' is easily one of the best Bond songs, in my opinion.
Moore was the best bond. The icon.
That honour goes to Connery!
But Moore realised that he would need to stamp his OWN brand onto the character!
And that, he did ... successfully!

Роджер Мурр самый бесподобный очаровательный Бонд настоящий англичанин типаж и серии лучшие до сих пор для меня изредка пересматриваю с изумительными изобретениями и заставками из песен ну и самые красивые женщины и сюжеты
Watching this was awesome and me smile thru out. It brought back so many memories. Thank you, sir!
Great presentation thank you.
Moore has always been my favorite Bond actor. His films may not always be critically seen as good, but they’re some of my favorites. The Spy Who Loved Me is a masterpiece. Yaphet Kotto is also a very cool actor.
Been a Bond fan since first seeing Goldfinger in 1964. I saw The Man With the Golden Gun once in the theater and have never watched it a second time. It’s the only Bond film I can say that about. What a stinker.
THE SPY WHO LOVED ME theme song just went up a notch. I never thought of it as being on the theme of competition. It fits the theme of the movie even better than I thought.
41:00 "I'm Roger Moore",
"Who?",
"Roger Moore"
THUMP!
Brilliant - that one make me laugh aloud every time. Pure joy!
Roger Moore is my favorite Bond. He was just so damn cool and debonair. And the funniest as well.
Moonraker is brilliant!
Live and let die was awesome the boat jumps set records, no cgi. Real stunts,
MY FAVORITE BOND EVER! Funny, daring, sexy, cool. He was all of that. THE MOST FUN BOND TO WATCH!
I think it's ironic that my favorite era of James Bond is the silly, over-the-top supervillain with a secret lair and shark tanks etc. era yet my favorite of all 7 Moore movies is For Your Eyes Only, the most, grounded, realistic and serious one.
P.S. For Your Eyes Only has sharks but no shark tanks cuz the shark action takes place in open international waters
I enjoyed Man with the golden gun!
Roger moore was campy but never so goofy that it took away from the quality of the movie and he'll always be a top 3 bond
He was my Favorite Bond
Love every Moore film.. Loved man with the goldeneye
Clifton James was (if unintentionally) a gem in LALD. To this day, both me and my dad always quote: "Secret agent? On whose side??" :)
While Sean Connery is my favorite Bond, Roger Mores movies are my favorite Bond movies.
Octopussy is one of the most underrated Bond films just because of a few silly parts.

Good movie. Gotta love the cheesy Bond films.
I've never seen a single Bond movie but I'm really digging these videos
I'm a Bond fan. You shouldn't criticize them. I think they are all good.
Pepper was perfect. Should have made a show or series around him.
ViewToAKill is my fave of all time
"Moonraker (1979)" is worth the watch for the laughs.
I love Connery, Dalton, and Craig too, yet, I am of a certain age where Roger Moore will always be my favorite Bond. He just naturally had the chemistry of fun and cool at the same time, similar to Terrence Hill in Italian Westerns, even as a senior! None of his movies were my favorite 007 films; that probably has to go to "Dr No", or, "Casino Royale", or, my true favorite; "OHMSS"! Yet, his were the funnest and he was always so dynamic and charismatic at the same time!
Moore was the Elvis of the Bond franchise. He took it to superstardom.
For Your Eyes Only is one of the highlight in Sir Roger Moore's era. Probably because he seemed believable as Bond and he did the spy stuff. And the characters seemed believable rather than being superhuman.
Connery and Bronsan are my James Bonds as I have seen their movies the most. Roger Moore was pretty good. Just a tad too snobbish and couldn't be bothered to fight attitude. The flip side is Daniel Craigs take which is extremely Jason Bourneish with almost no gadgets. DAMN GOOD. Just very different.
Moonraker is fantastic. So over the top you just can't help but laugh while watching it over and over.
Elon musk is making moonraker as documentary
@@randomhuman97 Rupert Murdoch is doing likewise for Tomorrow Never Dies ~ 😉
That "Sit" gag with the tiger, was a reference to a well known TV dog trainer called Barbara Woodhouse at the time, who's catchphrase was constantly mimicked by impersonators on UK TV.
I LOVE Live and Let Die…though it is dated that is also part of its charm. I love the locations, the villains, Moore’s rookie outing shows he hasn’t mastered Bond, but his effortless charm shows through…It’s actually one of my go-to films in the series.
I reshaped Roger Moore in an indirect James Bond story in my Zorro Series but we are living at a very difficult time after the bloody covid.19 pandemic, began in the year 2000 and this is 22 years since, I will be filmed in southern Spain, he was my only James Bond ever
Now I want a Cooler full of "Cold Snacks" to watch every James Bond Movie, back-to-back!
