Bond is too easy..

Let's talk about favorite Spies other than 007.

Let's do a "serious" character and a "comedic" Spy...

Here's my offering:

Comedic:

Derek Flint



Serious:

Harry Palmer

Although I don't think they touched on it in the movie, he's my favorite from lit.

Ford was the best Ryan, Baldwin was in the best Ryan movie.

Pine and Affleck were ok in their parts.

John Krazinsky was great in season 1 season 2 was a drop off.

Gary Oldman----"Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy"


For comic relief: Rowan Atkinson in "Johnny English", a spy spoof.
