Dalton as bond was so underrated
+Raj Nirvan I agree. Personally, Brosnan was one of my favorites, but I'd say Craig and Dalton are tied as the brutal Bonds (in a good way).
I prefer the debonaire vibe of Brosnan and Connery.
Ken Coleman people just weren’t ready for his Bond
So true, not appreciated like he should have been in his time. Wish he'd made more.
Raj Nirvan he should have done one more /:
Grigori Rasputin1990 He’s a better bond than sissy Moore ever was. Dalton is what Moore should’ve been.
Dalton was way ahead of his time and a superb bond
says who?
@@khav11 says me you virgin troll fuckhead
Matthew Botterill he was
@@khav11 You're a fool so fuck off.
Carey Lowell was also a different kind of Bond Grrl. A character, not a caricature, like most Bond Grrls. I think she could've carried her own sequel, if Bond Grrls were ever allowed to do that...
For such a darkly serious Bond, he seems like a genuinely pleasant fellow to be around.
I'd grab a beer with him.
I come with 🍺
I think he is a really nice person in real life.
When Christoper Nolan, the best director of the 21st century in my opinion says Dalton was his favourite Bond actor, I think we have reached a point where Dalton can never be underrated. He was just to good. He gets better with time.
really like Dalton as Bond...He played it the truest to the books
Agreed. He's probably my fave (though I do think Daniel Craig is doing a pretty good job making Bond the slightly more ruthless character from the books as well). Shame there were only two with Dalton though. Really revitalized Bond as a bad ass as well as the suave ladies man, I think.
Тимоти ти супер імені всігда сподобався
have you even read the books? dalton had no charisma
@@khav11 mate youre russian, so you dont have a clue.
Grigori Rasputin1990 Bond was never meant to be a pun dripping playboy like Moore.
Dalton's portrayal of Bond was the most true to the novels, but tragically, was way ahead of its time in cinema...
He's still my favorite I think.
Best Bond in my opinion. No one else had the edginess, smoothness, sophistication and seriousness that Dalton had. He felt like a real spy and not an actor. The rest of them all felt like actors.
***** I think that's because Dalton is the only Shakespearean trained actor in the group of Bonds
I agree. Such a shame he only did 2 films. He should have done roger moores last 3 as well.
Best Bond is an understatement. I pretty much stopped watching James Bond films after Dalton left.
+Crab Bisk 100 % agreed, it's hard for any actor to have those qualities combined like you mentioned (edginess and smoothness, sophistication and seriousness) at the same time, but Dalton delivered. He doesn't throw smart-ass remarks every second, he only delivers them when it's necessary (or when it makes sense). Sean Connery and Daniel Craig have similar qualities in the latter part IMO, but even they can't compete with Mr. Dalton with the overall delivery.
+Crab Bisk Interesting opinion, I've never heard anyone name Dalton as their favourite before. I'm watching them all again in chronological order at the moment and now I'm looking forward to seeing what you ment.
For me personally, I like Moore the best. I know he's considered a bit of a clown, but that's why I like him. I also don't like Craig at all. I'm sure he's an amazing action-hero actor, but not a Bond in my opinion.
Even in an interview Dalton is still an intense man. Brilliant Bond, definitely should have done 3 more.
Dalton had more balls than any other Bond actor.He brought the toughness and darkness back to the character after Roger Moore.
The thing I like about Dalton’s portrayal of Bond.
Is he brought a bit of darkness and intensity to the character with less
silly one-liners and innuendoes.
He also handled himself very well in the action scenes.
Tim Dalton is my favorite Bond, and The Living Daylights is my favorite Bond movie.
Yes I agree totally. The car and snow scenes in that movie were brilliant. Best James Bond in my self-centred opinion
They wanted Dalton since 1969, and his first movie as Bond was almost two decades later. And THEN, they wanted him back when the series was revived in '95. All we got to show for it was two movies (still great films, though). I wish they'd actually made better use of him in his prime.
That was the funny thing. Before they cast Connery they wanted Moore. Then before Moore accepted the role. they then wanted Dalton. but he turned it down because he felt he was to young for the role. So they cast Moore. Then before they cast Dalton. They wanted Brosnan, but he was contracted to do Remmington Steel. So they cast Dalton.
SlashMan.EXE He was in his 40's I believe when he made Living Daylights. As you probably know he flat out refused to be part of the series in his 20's citing that he was too young for the role. I think he did really well, and two films is not bad. Licence to Kill being the best in my opinion.
johnny prothero Before Daniel Craig they wanted Henry Cavill... eh... EH!
+Ayroxus94 I don't think they wanted Cavill, he is too young for the role
+SlashMan.EXE There's still time, dammit. Get him back in the role and let him keep his current hairstyle, it'll completely reinvent the franchise.
Mister Dalton looks so happy all the time, it's like a smile on his lips, and when he really smiles, he looks like in pure glee
Timothy Dalton was a fantastic Bond and well ahead of his time.
Really wish he would have at least done GoldenEye before calling it quits. Dalton captured the hard-nosed attitude of the Fleming books like no other actor so far.
+bordertown That would have been sick!Even though I grew up with Brosnan there's no denying that Dalton Bonds would had rock the part In that movie.
Incredibly late reply but I agree. GoldenEye had several scenes requiring an intensity from Bond that Brosnan couldn't deliver (Which is why he's written softer in the following movies) that Dalton would have nailed.
@@SpacedCobraIII TH-cam some of the Deepfakes of Dalton as Bond in Brosnan's films. Even as Connery !! eg. Dalton in Never Say Never Again - th-cam.com/video/Ssudcr4gLyY/w-d-xo.html
He still has that iconic voice.
He was a wonderful Bond in my opinion.
Seems like a very nice guy. His Bond films, particularly Living Daylights, are extraordinary.
Very true! Both The Living Daylights and Licence to Kill are among my favorite films in the series. I even have an Airsoft Walther PPK/S with a mock suppressor and a similar shoulder holster to the one Tim Dalton sports in Licence To Kill(one of my James Bond 007 collecting Holy Grails, but that is another story for another time.)
***** Well when you look at it. Craig's version is more like Daltons than anyone else's. Which is more in line with the books. People sometimes forget that 00s are assassins first and foremost.
canuckle head Fully agree, I loved both The Living Daylights (1987) and Licence To Kill (1989). In fact I would say The Living Daylights is my second favorite James Bond movie(I think I must have watched it over 20 times by now, and I own quite a bit of the merchandise associated with it), and Licence To Kill is my fourth. Also many times when I read the James Bond novels written by Ian Fleming, it is Tim Dalton I see as James Bond in my imagination. The same goes for John Gardner's books as well. Part of me wishes that Tim Dalton had gotten a chance to lend both his 1980's likeness and his voice to James Bond in a Video Game adaptation of either of his movies or a new story when EA had the license from MGM and Eon Productions. A photo of Tim as 007 from Licence To Kill was however used as cover art for the 1993 Sega James Bond video game, The Duel however.
He's still gorgeous. The Living Daylights is the best Bond film.
vanillaorchid the living daylight is the best bond movie
@@firstflightmm1696 The Living Daylights IS the best Bond movie.
Just watched LIVING DAYLIGHTS today for the first time. Loved it...... But wouldn't consider it the best Bond film. Very good though.
@@randallrutherford1384 I would . :;)
What ?? gorgeous ?? he wasn't even handsome in my opinion !
He deserved to make another one!!! He was great!!
Timothy Dalton was and always will be my favourite James Bond. I loved the 2 films he did. I wish he had starred in more Bond movies though!
Yes, I think he could have done For your eyes only and View to a kill
he should of got goldeneye too.
Timothy Dalton WAS the most real Bond coming straight out of the novel!
Dalton's Bond was before it's time. The 80's were not ready for dark and serious Bond films.
If Dalton shaved his hair he would look very striking still. He was so stunning before especially in Jane Eyre it's almost painful to watch his handsome face and powerful stature. Unforgettable!
He was such a tough bond. ruthless and driven. Craig is an extension of Dalton's portrayal. Dalton was ahead of his times.
I like the fact that both of Daltons movies are being appreciated much more than they originally were thanks to the recent Craig movies and the same approach they have taken that Dalton did.
+alucard624 Dalton's films are more appreciated due to youtube, Netflix, and social media
Dalton has millions of fans worldwide
Daltons films are more appreciated now as we can see what the real bond was like,,craig is a good bond but his films are awful and casino royale is the only decent film.
I don’t think we get the Craig we know and love without Dalton. Craig took it maybe a notch down on seriousness…but they are similar in a lot of ways.
The first Bond movie I ever saw was The Living Daylights and I loved it. Amazing stunts, amazing John Barry music score and Timothy Dalton was wonderful.
I loved Mr Dalton as Bond. I think Living Daylight is one of the best Bond films. Dalton looooked so handsome in that film.
Timothy Dalton my favourite Bond always :)
My fave Bond over all of them, Dalton was the best IMO. Gutted he only did the two
On the other hand, his good films to all films ratio is 100 %. Not even Connery or Craig have that.
***** Excuse me, could you repeat that in english?
me too
He should have come in earlier
+Hank J Wimbleton I've read somewhere he didn't want to, said he wasn't ready.
He was a great Bond! Extremely underrated and the first real Fleming Bond!
He is still a handsome British gentleman. I love the reserve in his personality.
The Living Daylights is still my favorite of the whole series.
So glad Tim is finally getting respect after audiences have taken to Daniel Craig. I think they both portray the character similarly, and they are both the best. I remember watching all those 90s Bond documentaries that really tout Brosnan. They treated him like a god and forgot about Tim. Glad to see changes for the better.
I love Mr. Dalton so much -- terrific actor, terrific Bond, such a gentleman and so kind in expressing his affection for the 007 family. He was flawless in The Rocketeer, egolessly playing an egomaniac, and hilarious in Hot Fuzz. Hip-hip hurrah, indeed.
He was great in the1992 mini series, Framed. Outstanding.
I love his portrayal of Heathcliff in Weathering Heights as well. Even though I'm not much of a Doctor Who fan anymore, I do love him playing a timelord villain.
He was the James Bond I read about in my books, no one else comes close.
I like all the bond actors for different reasons and have enjoyed each of their runs. I have to say, Timothy Dalton was a very good portrayal of James Bond. He had the looks, the intensity, the intelligence and the sense of humor that was very entertaining to watch.
spot on :-)
Dalton was a very good bond. Enjoyed his work as Agent 007.
He just had the charisma
Simply put, he is Bond as Fleming intended and Dalton delivered the goods.
I agree it is a pity that due to all of the legal stuff with UA/MGM in the 1990's that Dalton never got his chance to make more movies. Goldeneye was originally going to star him until he announced that he was stepping down in 1994 from the set of Scarlet. Still he is one of my favorite actors to have played James Bond.
Tim Dalton was excellent as bond
Timothy Dalton was one of my top favorites. I loved how serious and action packed he was. It was like warming up for Daniel Craig.
timothy dalton is the best james bond ever
some people are saying he looks really old ...first he is almost 70 and he looks good for a 70 year old...he would look better if his hair was cut and dyed...
True, he needs a haircut
toby smith he is 72 years old now and will be 73 in March of 2019
Who cares what he looks like, he is a one off, underrated & fuck aesthetics!
He looks much better with facial hair
He looks good clean shaven or with an Errol Flynn tache as he sport in The Rocketeer and Flash Gordon.
Connery & Dalton are my favorite James Bond!!! Two very talented actors and so damn fine!!!💋
Dalton so underrated. He's a great Bond.
I agree! In my opinion, Timothy Dalton's cold portrayal paved the way for the bleak assassin that Craig represented in his era. DC owes a great bit of his contribution to the 007 to TD!
One of my personal favorite actors to take the role. Truly an underrated talent; truly, he was the prototype for the Bond the 21st century knows and now loves.
Dalton will always be my favorite Bond.
a bond ahead of his time. everything people love about Daniel craig was everything the timothy Dalton brought to the role. He captured the true spirit of ian fleming
Just seen living daylights for the first time...wasnt expecting much as ive always heard Moore,Connery were the greatest .... wont lie...Dalton is a bad ass...
I know we all age, but I can't believe thats the same guy.. best looking bond of them all
Best Bond and my favourite movie (License to Kill) thanks to Mr.Dalton, its just sad that he did not get the chance to play in more Bond's films :(
Gawd I used to be in love with this guy..well still do.
sarika Fauzi:D I am afraid he is married, sarika!
rollercoaster478 he is in a long term relationship, but never got married.
Erika Fiore really? ok... did NOT know that detail :D
rollercoaster478 at least is what wikipedia says, LOL =P
Dalton was the best Bond. I was really divided between him and Craig, but it's Dalton's acting chops - whatever you think of him as Bond, he's certainly the best *actor* to take the role - that won me over.
Daltons portrayal of a darker Bond was brilliant, I wish he'd done more films
His Bond was excellent and his movies exciting. Very underrated and beats Brosnan and Craig too...
best 007 because he played closest to Fleming's Bond, tallest actor to play 007, green eyes, handsome with grittiness, and best gunbarells
Dalton was offered in 1968 to play 007 and withdrew from GoldenEye in 1994
+Neil Parga 1968 he would have been what 24? way too young.
yes..but he was offered the role...Dalton should have done at least six 007 films..he also turned down GoldenEye due to the long lawsuit
Neil Parga Moore would have been fantastic in the 60s, but he was still affiliated with the saints.
nope..Moore did not play 007 seriously..bad actor and he will be dead soon
Neil Parga Flip-flop, you said the other day you loved his charisma, class etc now you crucify him? You're an imbecile, Dalton was terrible nobody liked him back in the days.
I felt GoldenEye was nearly a perfect traditional Bond film, but Dalton in that or The World is Not Enough would've been amazing.
Dalton is so criminally underrated as Bond and LTK is one of my favorite Bond movies.
Dalton was a great Bond. He was apparently approached earlier for the role (according to his bio in Wikipedia) but he said he was too young (about mid 20s) and he did not want to take over from Connery because it was too daunting an undertaking for him. Still, I also agree that the producers should have turned to him in the early 80s instead of clinging on to Moore. He would have made AVTAK, Octopussy and FYEO so much better than they were. I prefer Dalton over Craig.
just about every bond was supposed to be casted earlier.
Dalton was the best bond
i like timothy dalton, its just sad to see people get old
Yeah.. he looked so very handsome in both his Bond Movies.. he was also pretty good in the Movie "Hawks".
It would be even sadder to see them remain the same age.
I thought Dalton was superb as Heathcliff, been a fan ever since. Loved him as James Bond too. Wish he had continued making those films.
He made 2 great movies . ❤
I know this maybe considered blasphemie but Timothy Dalton in my opinion is better as Bond than Pierce Brosnan and Roger Moore put together.
+JReed1985 not blasphemy...there are many fans of Dalton..youtube attracts the skinny jean wearing fuckheads who think anything present is better than the past with everything so they like ugly ass Daniel Criag
+Neil Parga Truer words have never been spoken. I thought id be the only one who thinks that. The "present is best hype". #Craigisnotbond #Daltonbestbond
I'm one of those Bond fans that just doesn't get why so many think Brosnan is so perfect. Brosnan fans are usually those who haven't read the books.
I was encouraged to read the books by my university tutor and that's how i begun to appreciate Dalton more, and how he become my third favourite Bond.
+PheboisPictures yup...just like in sports...fucking morons today ( kids) compare Lebron/ rapist Kobe to Michael Jordan, who is the greatest
+Neil Parga Sean Connery and Roger Moore are the only 2 great james bond....nobody else comes close and ever will.
always liked him as bond.
My personal favourite Bond. I like his style best compared to the others.
Timothy Dalton had been repeatedly requested by the producer Albert Broccoli himself to take the role of James Bond since the moment Sean Connery left the series after You Only Live Twice due to his concern over his young age at the time. This man is above Roger Moore, Pierce Brosnan, and George Lazenby on the list of the actual makers of 007. Enough said.
You rock Timothy!!!! The Living Daylights is my number one favorite James Bond movie ever! Timothy Dalton was amazing as James Bond! I love The Living Daylights so much!!! It is my favorite Bond movie! I love you Timothy!!
Watching licence to kill just now. He was defo a great bond. Never got the credit. He looked like you think bond would look like. If you get me.
My favorite bonds of all time:
1.Timothy Dalton
2.Sean Connery
3.Daniel Craig.
4.Pierce Brosnan
5.Roger Moore.
6.George Lazenby.
MrEvaris 100% agree. Dalton was the best to me because he felt like a real spy - brooding and calculated. You always took him seriously and he rarely joked around which is what discredited the others in my opinion. The others always felt like actors but I believed that Dalton was a spy.
Good top of list! 1. Dalton 2. Connery 3. Craig 4. Lazenby 5. Brosnan 6. Moore 7. Moore's eyebrows.
@@bigulf6712 I like this list even better
MrEvaris Mine is....
Dalton
Connery
Craig
Brosnan
Moore
Lazenby
The Living Daylights and License To Kill, both awesome films! Dalton is the man.
A great Bond. Cannot believe it's been that long since The Living Daylights and License to Kill. Wish he'd been able to do some more!
This guy is the most under-rated Bond and one of the greatest of all time!
Dalton and Craig are my favorites, they're incredible!
TD was an excellent Bond. He played it just as hard edged as DC given the era. He's one of my favourites.
He made a pretty good bad guy in "The Rocketeer."
For sure
Tim was a superb bond and he deserved at least 3 more bond films to cement his input on the franchise.He deserved far more recognition as bond and he was far more realistic and true to the ian fleming novels..He was better than moore and brosnan in my opinion.
I allways loved Dalton, even as a kid. I thought he was "the real deal" so to speak. Pierce Brosnan felt like he knew that the cameras were there, and he looked to "fat" in his face. Bond to me is suposed to be fit, atletic and cunning, and also as Flemming portray him in his books, Bond needs to be grumpy and misogynist. When he strikes back at his enemies he has to have a bit of hatred in his heart, I think Dalton shows that pretty good in his acting!
Brosnan looked in good shape to me.
@@gandhibhagat285 Good perspective!
Timothy Dalton is one of the greatest guys to ever play Bond
top 3 de los mejores bond. un monstruo timothy. Gracias por hacerme vivir eso cuando era un niño. Genio
they need to make a new 007 game with Timothy voice over in the game.
+Dwayne Overton That would be so cool!I think his Bond need to be immortalised In a video game too.It would be like giving him and the fan the third movie he should of had (Y)!
Yes would love a game where you can switch between pierce, Timothy and roger. Timothy the most underrated bond ever.
I wish Dalton got to do a third because he's 2 for 2 in my opinion. License to Kill really is the vengeful, off the reservation Bond that we don't get with any of the others, and I'm including expressionless Mum's boy Craig.
My favorite Bond by far!
Dalton's portrait, just like Fleming's, was that of a man who is not finding his humanity, but losing it.
This guy is the closest we've had to the way Ian Fleming wrote the Bond character.
Best Bond ever! I fell in love with Timothy Dalton while watching him in Jane Eyre movie while little girl in the Soviet Union (in Russian). Recently I watched the movie again with my daughter in English.
If only they made that one about the chemicals in the Scottish lab in 1991 😭😭😭😭
They should have made on her majestys secret service a prequel instead, timothy dalton was perfect for young james bond,
He is one of those actors that raises the quality of any of the movies he is in ( Dr Who, Flash Gordon), as for On Her Majesty's Secret Service , its just a shame Lazenby pulled the pin and didn't make at least one more, to see Bond go apeshit on Kojak for killing Ms Peel, would have made for a brilliant movie, instead its just a back ground story.
This man deserved to have gotten at least a third Bond Movie with him as the lead. And he still is MY Bond and really the face of 007 when i think of James Bond in general. Because he felt like the most realistic & authentic characterization of Bond. This man has a sheer mesmerizing presence. And that goes for every role he has played.
My favourite Bond. Always been disappointed he didn't get to make any more films. The Living Daylights is my favourite from the entire series.
Timothy Dalton, in my view, was the best. I have some of the books, and Bond has not made a single quip or said "Shaken, not stirred". Timothy Dalton hardly ever says this, which makes him the closest to the books and therefore the best.
Dalton was on hell of a Bond. Looked the part and carried the role very well. I'm surprised they dropped him for the disappointing Remington Steele.
Dalton is Bond even in this interview!
Dalton was great. I would love to see him as a Bond villain in a future movie
for me he is the best james bond he played it very well...license to kill...and the living daylights and golden eye are my fave bonds but to bad he did not play bond in golden eye..
He was supposed to be in Goldeneye but the role went to Brosnan
i no
"It is the 500 pound elephant in the room" Dalton's reaction is incredible.
0:28 lmao
That's not actually a very big elephant. It's more like 1.5 Americans.
My favorite James Bond! Timothy Dalton!🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺
dalton is seriously underrated and in my opinion the best actor to have ever portrayed bond
Dalton was a truly fantastic Bond..A dark brooding Bond...In my opinion far superior to Daniel Craig.🎥💯
Agreed best bond Timothy Dalton..said by Sir Roger Moore himself
I love the hand gestures Carey Lowell gives the bartender for "Shaken, not stirred".
