I am currently watching all of the Bond movies in order. Am I supposed to watch the non Eon Bond movies also?

Are there more non cannon Bond movies besides "Never Say Never Again?"

ETA - I forgot the original Casino Royale.

Since both non-Eon Bonds are covered by Eon Bond movies I would say no.

Thunderball was much better than Never say Never, and I don't get why they chose to try and redo that story in a different way when Connery did so well the first time.

They chose Thunderball because producer Kevin McClory owned the filming rights to the original story. He assisted Fleming on a movie script that was never made and Fleming then used that story to write Thunderball but neglected to credit anybody else. McClory had tried to make his own version of Thunderball as far back as the 1960s, when the Eon films were just starting. There were some lawsuits and various legal arrangements over the years that prevented him from doing so until the early 1980s.

I'm sorry you have to end on Spectre.

Watched it today and it is garbage.

TV Series called Climax had an episode made from Casino Royale in 1954.

Barry Nelson was the first actor to portray James Bond.

Climax - Casino Royale
