      My favorite James Bond is Sir William Samuel Stephenson. Who was a Canadian soldier, airman, businessperson, inventor, spymaster, and the senior representative of British intelligence for the entire western hemisphere during World War II. He was best-known by his wartime intelligence codename Intrepid. Many people consider him to be one of the real-life inspirations for James Bond. Ian Fleming himself once wrote, “James Bond is a highly romanticized version of a true spy. The real thing is … William Stephenson.”

      * I stole that off his Wikipedia page

      P.S.
      He’s also from my home town of Winnipeg .

      Best Bonds: Timothy Dalton & Daniel Craig
      Best Movies: OHMSS & Casino Royale (new)
      Best Female: Diana Rigg & Jane Seymore

      Note: Octopussy was based on a short story about an octopus.

      Casino Royale is the only movie which was faithful to the Ian Fleming novels. No (or little gadgets). No (or little) womanizing. Long time periods spent on the game (gambling/golf/etc). Bond is actually hurt (and we believe it). I haven’t read Bond novels for 30 years, and I still remembered the torture scene which appears in the Casino Royale movie. When they starting cutting the seat out of the chair, I could see what was coming.

      Hate about James Bond: the lack of faithfulness to the books. Too many gadgets. No spy training. Too many women. The Bond films were good/bad compared to other Bond movies, but they don’t hold up well compared to other spy movies. The absolute worst was when Roger Moore needed a gadget to unlock a window which you could probably stick your finger between the window frames (as seen in the movie theater).
