RN> I think of Brosnan as a softer version of the more comedic Moore. He was more in the direction of the hard nosed portrayal I see in Craig's style. RN> PH> Hard pressed to pick a favourite one but SkyFall for it's plot etc. RN> PH> has been high on my list and GoldenEye was also good. RN> RN> I haven't seen Skyfall yet. I'm not exactly a fan of Craig, but I'll RN> give it a look. For Your Eyes Only had everything in it. Skyfall worked for me because I took characters well established by the preceding two films (also with Craig) and shook things up. It was a risky move on the part of the producers and those that hold the franchises IP but also necessary to do IMHO as actors and actresses want to move on from a franchise sooner or later. It also worked for me as theme song was on a par with Shirley Bassey 'Goldfinger' for power and emotional impact, especially when you review it after experiencing the plot. Lastly I liked it as it had homages to past Bond history... you will enjoy a vehicular tip of the hat when you see it.
