That is an AWESOME question. Sean Connery is great – not only because he was the first James Bond but also because his character was so “cool” – as in aloof. I quite like Daniel Craig too, even though I did not expect much from him to begin with.

I’m a huge Sean Connery fan (being a Scot and all)... although my favourites of his movies are actually his non-Bond ones. Brosnan is also pretty good, though.
You know, I’m not entirely sure I like Craig too much. He’s a good cast as Bond, but some of his choices make him come out more annoying than he should. Plus I just hated Solace so much.

Sean Connery is definitely my first choice. Brosnan was okay in the first couple of movies but after a while the “punny” dialogues became a bit too much, and he never looked as convincing as Connery and Craig in the action scenes. I hated Solace too, but I still think Craig makes a pretty cool Bond. But then he’s almost purely action and grit, hardly any of the characteristic 007 charm. It’s like if you combined Brosnan and Craig, you’d get Connery :)
I really liked Timothy Dalton’s portrayal of the character too (“The Living Daylights”, “License to Kill”). For me, it was a welcome change from Roger Moore. The movies too were somewhat pathbreaking from the usual Bond fare of the 70s and 80s. In many ways he was like the Craig of that era – dark, gritty, merciless, but just a touch short of charm.

Actually I wasn’t so impressed with Craig, he looks too old. Moreover, the guy does too much of fighting and stunts an all, unlike the original James Bond punch-and-the-guy’s-been dealt with. Craig’s deviated from the original James Bond type films.
