borne because he is the total bad ass...he can run flat out for a half a mile before his hands start shaking...he can sit down in a restorant, look at the parking lot and memorize every license plate...
dude is uber cool

Bourne, much more interesting than Bond.

Bourne is the shit, I hope they make them for years to come.

Nothing can match the pimp hand of Sean Connery.

Bourne is ok, ...but I have a hard time getting over Matt Damon's clean cut milk & cookies face.

I picture him living in Salt Lake City somewhere raising a family like a good little Mormon boy.

I'm partial to Bond... Pierce Brosnan Bond.

Bond, he knew his limits, scored endless amounts of chicks, had sweet gadgets and impeccable class & taste.

The Bourne movies are uncommonly good. But the character is a cipher. I don't think anyone would ever say "Women want to fuck him and men want to be him."

So Bond, definitely. I grew up with Moore, think Dalton is underrated, and give props to Connery. But Craig owns the role now, as far as I'm concerned.

Bourne, knew how to fight. Bond relied to much on gadgets, and in the real world one one can't do that. Bond was more superficial and tended to be very jingoist and the movies tended to have a light undercurrent of nationalist xenophobia running thru them. WIth Bourne, he was supposed not just trained, but brainwashed into just doing the job, not the girl and the job.

Craig was good in Casino Royale, ...but to me it wasn't a Bond film.
It was a good film, ...but not what I've come to expect from the Bond franchise.

It was too loose a plot, that wasn't tied up very well imo, and was far too brutal for my liking.
The torture and threats of torture were far too excessive imo. They'll have to do better next time.

ps - ...although I did like that wet shirt in the shower. That was very nice.

I still would have preferred Gerard Butler in the role though.
He would have made a good morph of the Moore Bond, the Brosnan Bond, and the Connery Bond

Ah Jags... you're missing the point... The point was to completely reboot the bond franchise and make it more modern, that's exactly what they did.

The point was to get away from the Connery, Brosnan, Moore, Dalton Bond and make him anew.

This is bond for now.

Oh, and Bond kicks Bourne's ass.

Bond's in order of greatest to worst...

Connery, Brosnan, Dalton (In The living Daylights), Craig, Moore.

I do not count "License to Kill" at all as a Bond movie... It was horrible and Dalton just couldn't do anything to fix it. Bad plot, bad script, bad everything.

But more faithful to the source material, for whatever that's worth.

Until the new Casino Royale, Licence to Kill was my favorite Bond movie.

Both chicks were smoking hot.

Plus future Oscar winner Benicio Del Toro!

Hot chicks does not a good movie make... It is BY FAR, the worst James Bond movie ever...

I bet if we take a poll on worst Bond movie ever, it will be number 1.

Just watched Casino Royale again last night and I'm impressed Bond needed a new modern look, and modern ploy, it was not done over the top. Casino Royale is what will keep Bond going. Bourne could get old fast, afterall he did kill off all the other treadstone projects so it's just him now, The Bourne Ultimatum plot sounds kinda dull, well see.

nobody is cooler or more sophisticated than Bond....but Bourne is the better killer.

James Bond is the best. I always looked at my uncle Bernie as a James Bond type. Divorced with two kids and filfthy rich. My parents thought he went overbaord on everything he did. He kept in awesome shape when younger, smoked cigarettes with a filter on the end. Fancy cars and hot chicks. I remember going over one day and my cousin meeting me in the driveway as I pulled up on my Sting-Ray. He had a Playboy with him and he opened it up and said "this girl is laying out at the pool with no top on" we ended up climbing on the roof and looking down at her. I think that was my first sighting of real tits (besides my mom's). But, he lead an exciting life like Bond and was in shape and good looking and rich. That is my James Bond story. No I never met any of them I don't think.

Agreed. Bourne would kill bond in 27 different ways while memorizing 312 license plates.

I like the latest bond the best though. A bit more hardcore, less "suave" than the previous ones. Maybe it would have been better if they had just made him a different 00. Like 008 or something.
To me, he's not really James bond.
