Timothy Dalton is 300% based

>>68859585

He was the best.

Perfect mix of suave and brutal.

Sagat as his right hand man now.

He's fucking 70?? He could play Bond today and I wouldn't care.

>Dude is 70

or 21 March 1946 (age 70)
What.

I'm a Bond pleb, I've only seen Casino Royale and Skyfall. Bondfags, give me essential Bond films. Should I watch both of Dalton's?

Dalton is is the GOAT 007, tough and determined but still charismatic and refined, no one else could balance the darker and lighter sides of the character the way he could
>>
>>68859775
He's a great Bond but they were both shit films to be honest. First was boring, the second was just any old Miami crime drama.
>>
>>68859775
Yes both are great, TLD is one of the best

Watch dr no, Russia with love, gold finger, her majesty's secret service, and spy who loved me as well
>>
>>68859775
My top 5:
You Only Live Twice
On Her Majesty's Secret Service
The Living Daylights
Licence to Kill
GoldenEye
>>
>>68860158
TLD is hands down my favorite Bond film, virtually flawless. It also has Maurice Binder's best credits IMO

2nd best Bond next to Connery.

>Looked the most like the source material
>Played Bond like the source material
>Brought gritty realism to the role after Moore took it to cartoony fantasy land
>Did all of his own stunts

Fun Fact: The only reason that Goldeneye is the one good Brosnan Bond film is because it was entirely written for Dalton. After Goldeneye, the rest of Brosnan's run was nothing but 2 hour car and watch commercials.
>>
>>68859775
License To Kill wasn't worthy of Dalton's Bond. And it clearly illustrates why a leading man shouldn't insist on doing all his own stunts. The helicopter opening is beyond shit as the villain trying to get away holds his plane nice, slow and steady while Bond lowers himself on there.
>>
>>68859765
Dalton was actually first offered Bond in 1969, replacing Connery.

I think it has a mediocre teaser but the rest of the film is a blast. Yeah maybe the plot is too reminiscent of a typical 80's action movie but the dialogue is great, Sanchez is an amazing villain and Pam is best Bond girl

I wouldn't say it's the best 007 movie but it's the one I've watched the most
>>
>>68860554
Source materials was always shit though.
>>
>>68859585
People give credit to Mr.Potatohead for making bond 'gritty', when in reality, Dalton's Bond had already done that.

Also, i thought he was handsome as a young guy, but he's even more good looking as an old guy.. Same with Lord Gibson.

Funnily enough (though not for them) they both have kids with that Russian whore.
>>
Reminder that he got cucked by his wife with Mel.
>>
>>68862260
>Pam is best Bond girl
She really is. Every scene she's different and still gorgeous and awesome.
>>
>>68862260
Also best use of Q in any Bond movie. LTK has aged like wine
>>
>>68859775
my favs
Connery - From Russia with love, Goldfinger (pussy galore da best). cllassic bond.
you can skip lazenby. he's not bad, but nothing great.
moore - spy who loved me, octopussy. funny and zany
dalton - both movies. loved his bond.
brosnan - goldeneye, die another day (anniversary trashy bond). brosnan is great bond with only one good movie (goldeneye).
craig - casino royale, spectre (liked it more than skyfall). not so good as bond.
>>
I'm enjoying watching Dalton on Penny Dreadful, but Logan doesn't give him much to do...that series is pretty much Eva Green's...not that I'm complaining
>>

>Connery - From Russia with love, Goldfinger (pussy galore da best). cllassic bond.
You Only Live Twice is literally the most iconic Bond movie of all time.
>>
>>68863623
also criminally underrated, my favorite of the Connery-era. Tiger Tanaka is cool as fuck
