I bought the entire set of james Bond when it went on sale a few weeks ago and jsut finished all the Sean Connery movies. I was wondering what everyone's favorite Sean Connery Bond is.

Dr. No
From Russia with Love
Goldfinger
Thunderball
You only Live Twice
Diamonds are Forever

My favorite was From Russia with love followed closely by Dr. No and Diamonds are Forever.

No, Connery only made 6 "official" Bond movies. Never Say Never Again wasn't an EON picture and therefore not part of the Bond films.

NSNA was basically a remake of Thunderball IIRC. EON was sued because someone claimed that the idea for thunderball was stolen from them, and somehow it ended up that they remade the movie with Connery through a different studio.

Of the Connery movies, I have to go with From Russia with Love first, then Goldfinger and Dr. No in third.

From Russia with Love - #1 (and also the best of the Ian Fleming novels)

Goldfinger #2, although Jill St. John does it for me in Diamonds are Forever.

the humor of Diamonds are forever made it for me

Goldfinger is the great classic, Dr. No was very solid, Thunderball was alright, You Only Live Twice was my least favorite

My favorite of all is From Russia With Love. It just epitomizes everything a spy movie should be.

From Russia with Love is the best Connery Bond, and my second favorite Bond film of all time, after Craig's Casino Royale.

My second favorite Connery is probably You Only Live Twice.

Goldfinger is marred by having that ugly hag Honor Blackman as the Bond "girl".

Goldfinger # 1 for me, but Thunderball is very close. The boat scene at the end of Thunderball has some of the best special effects I have ever seen.

I think that Bond's comment to her about going from blonde to brunette is one of the classic Bond lines. She asks him which he prefers, and his response "Well, as long as the collar and cuffs match..."
