from the Bond.-James-Bond. dept.

Not much to say, other than Moore was the first Bond I came to know, and as such, is the first face I think of when I think of the Bond Character.

In remembrance, what was your favourite role that Moore played over the years, Bond or otherwise?

    My favorite role of his was not in one of the Bond movies, but in the 1980 film, "ffolkes".

    The "anti-Bond" film!

    Good stuff.

    I was going to post about "ffolkes" too :)

    That is the roll that always comes first to mind when someone mentions Moore.

    How did that line go? Something like ...

    "Only a genius would attempt something like that, So all I have to do is figure out how I would do it, and then come up with a plan to stop myself"

      I would like to remember him in The Cannonball Run, but all that surfaces about the movie is a pair of tits and a black Countach... I am sure he was superb as usual, though.

    +1 for Ffolkes. Kinda campy, but hey, you got Anthony Perkins too!

    One of my favorite scenes in the film is near the beginning where the government officials are trying to talk him into the job. An admiral chastises Ffolkes as being one of those people who "Probably does the Times crossword puzzle in ten minutes."

    Ffolkes stares him down and says, "Sir, I have never taken ten minutes."
