Personally, I love this movie. It's second only to Goldeneye as far as Bond movies, IMHO.

Brosnan is my favorite Bond, Connery is definitely second, and Dalton is easily the worst (never seen Lazenby).

You mentioning every Bond actor but Roger Moore in your post is blatant trolling...

I have a question.  Was GoldenEye the first James Bond movie you ever saw?  Most Brosnan fans seem to be that way because he was the Bond that they were introduced to first.   By the way, I did like GoldenEye but this wasn't very good at all.

I didn't mention Craig either, simply because I was noting my favorites and least favorite.  Moore and Craig fall somewhere in the middle for me (I don't care for either as James Bond, although I do really like Craig as an actor).

To answer your question, no, Goldeneye wasn't the first Bond movie I've ever seen at all, just the first that I loved.  I like James Bond, but I'm not a HUGE fan of the series.  I agree, though; it seems that a lot of Brosnan fans started watching with Goldeneye.  It also seems like many huge Bond fans don't consider Brosnan to be the best Bond.  Where does he fall on your list of Bond actors?

I've liked Pierce Brosnan since Remington Steele, and I remember always thinking that he would make a great James Bond.  Then it was announced that he was indeed to be cast as Bond, and I believe he quit RS just to do it, and was then screwed over at the last minute when they decided to cast Dalton for the next two movies instead (which was just as well IMO, since I didn't like TLD or LTK anyway).  Regarding Brosnan's films, I like Goldeneye the best, followed by TND and DAD.  But I really didn't like TWINE at all, despite the magnificent Robert Carlyle (plus, Denise Richards is the single worst Bond girl ever, IMO).

I will let everyone know exactly how I feel about Pierce as Bond tomorrow in my The World Is Not Enough review.
