The original Bond, James Bond was supposed to be funny because he's mocking Sylvia by throwing her, "Trench, Sylvia Trench" line back in her face. But Connery delivered it like a bad-ass and the rest is history. Casino Royale's might by my favorite. That scene was awesome.

One thing about Dalton's delivery on that line is that it's the equivalent of "Oh, hi" before going back on the phone. I always loved that.

The first ever "Bond, James Bond" could be humorous if Sean Connery wasn't so damn suave and cool in it.

5: Pierce Brosnan - Goldeneye 4: Sean Connery - Goldfinger 3: Roger Moore - Live and let Die 2: Daniel Craig - Casino Royale 1: Sean Connery - Dr. No

I think the one from Dr No was supposed to be a joke, as he mimics the way Sylvia introduced herself.

1:01 That guy looks like Timothy Dalton.

"Why is this funny?" Well, I think because he was basically taunting and mocking her with it. if you listen to the whole scene, the way she says. "Trench,... Sylvia Trench" and he throws it back at her, almost with a mocking glare "Bond,... James Bond".

The first one, from Dr. No, will always be my favourite. Not only because it's the first and original one, but because Connery is so self-assured when he says it. He means it. And his look at that moment is killer.

My top three: 1. Dr No 2. The Living Daylights 3. Goldeneye

I think what I like most about "the line" is that in Dr. No, it seems like Bond is originally just copying the delivery of "Ms...?" "Trench, Sylvia Trench" by introducing himself as "Bond, James Bond." I like to imagine that Bond liked that way of introducing himself and picked it up for regular use after that encounter. I also think that's what Terence Young meant by him thinking the scene is comical. Sylvia introduces herself in a rather distinctive manner, and Bond being the smarmy so-and-so he is, he'll take notice of that and use it as a means of leveling the playing field with her.

Brosnan had the best ones for me, especially the one in Tomorrow Never Dies and of course The World is Not Enough.

I think that Pierce Brosnan’s delivery of the line in Goldenye was just perfect!

Don't know if anyone else agrees, but I really loved the delivery of the line in Spectre, I felt it was so very Bond-like.

Goldfinger is a superb one, Calvin, but I actually really like the one from 'A View to a Kill' where Bond introduces himself properly to Stacey and the Police Chief for the first time. 'Well, actually Captain, I'm with the British Secret Service. The name is Bond, James Bond!'. I love Moore's delivery in that one!

Regarding the comedy, I had read in the official Bond encyclopedia that Young mentioned that the delivery sparked a few laughs among the crew because Connery was suppose to say the line in a haze of cigarette smoke, but he got ahead of himself.

Good to see all six Bond actors in the top 10. Every one of them had a great way introducing themselves. "Bond, James Bond" will forever be Iconic.

I like Roger Moore's delivery of the line in Octopussy, at the casino. "The name's Bond (pause - looks at the thug standing in the back ground, smiles to himself) James Bond"

The Casino Royale one is so cool because it's the culmination of a drawn out scene that shows how badass and intimidating Craig's Bond is. There's so much more to it than just the line and it's delivery; it's how the shot that hits Mr White straight after the phone call makes you shit yourself, it's how Mr White has to crawl across the steps as the camera pans up and it's how Bond, instead of carrying a tiny toy pistol, is instead holding a full sized silenced MP5.

I thought that was an editing error when 6/5 came at the same time... to be honest I prefer Pierce's delivery. Oh yeah and in Die Another Day, when he walks into the hotel with his shirt half off, that was hilarious!

I love the line delivered by Moore in Octopussy when he's invited to play Backgammon... "Bond... James Bond, and thank you, I'd be delighted" with a little side smile going on too.

Top 10 one liners!

I introduce myself like Bond except I say, "the name is Reed, James Reed." and the reaction I usually get from the person or people I say it to is laughter.

Craig's delivery in Casino Royale has to be my favourite of all time! So good! And Calvin, you've never given us your top 10 greatest Bond villains!!! Please do that next!!

my favourite will always be roger moore in live and let die. it's simply perfect in my eyes.

Great video! Quite a daring move to not rank the holy introduction scene higher! But I love videos where people just go against general opinions and stress their own. I do agree Connery's one in Goldfinger is a great one! I also was expecting you to maybe pick the other TWINE one. Also I gotta say, I loved the latest introduction in SPECTRE, defenitely a great one to me! Love how Craig did that this time! (not typing spoilers for those who havent seen it)

I will say, I do really like the "Bond, James Bond" delivery in The World Is Not Enough. It is, as you say, kickass!

Oh, I was hoping this was a best one liners list. Though knowing you that'd probably consist of 90% Roger Moore :p idea for the future, maybe?

Brosnan in Tomorrow Never Dies when he goes to meet Carver is a badass one too

I love the end of Casino Royale. It just marked the origin, all that could have made it better would have been if a second Gun Barrel came right after it.

If it wasn't for the Cigar the Dr. No one wouldn't be anywhere near as cool XD and I completely forgot about The World is not Enough! damn that is a good one.

I always liked his introduction to Lazar in The Man With The Golden Gun. It had a real dark undercurrent to it, which gave it an edge that really worked well.

I think the Dr No Bond, James Bond is also elevated because the Bond theme starts playing during the pause

11:51 Bond is right beside her when he turns off the radio, but when he answers her, it`s like he is just entering the balcony

As a brand new subscriber I am enjoying the hell out of your videos.Looking forward to watching more!

1:02 Timothy Dalton on the left hand side turning around :-)

Hmm...very interesting choices, particularly number one and two. Great video as always though Calvin!

The Dr No one has to be top of the pile. It's an iconic piece of cinema history. It leaves the audience in no doubt that the bad guys have just lost, even though 95% of the film is still to run.

I just rewatched NSNA this weekend and was shocked by how badly that line was delivered (well, the same could be said about most of this film). Connery says it without confidence or charisma, almost in a tongue-in-cheek manner, which reminds me of the campy tone adopted by Moore during most of his tenure.

Enjoyed this ! Thank you! the line was super cool in Dr No

Not putting the Dr. No intro as #1 is unacceptable. It wins on cool points alone not to mention it’s one of the most iconic moments in all of cinema.

It would be hilarious if the villains introduced themselves like that too, in which case it would go: Dishonorable: Renard (because he doesn't use his surname all that often and probably wouldn't when introducing himself) Honorable: Dr. Kananga 10: Max Zorin 9: Auric Goldfinger 8: Francisco Scaramanga 7: Alec Trevelyan 6: Julius No 5: Rosa Klebb 4: Le Chiffre 3: Dominic Greene (even though he and his movie were boring) 2: Raoul Silva 1: Ernst Stavro Blofeld

1:02 theres timothy daltons lookalike!

"BITCH" -Diamonds are forever

Would you consider a top 10 on Bond One liners? Or even better a top 20 or top 30?

The Doctor No one takes the cake for me--like you said, it just oozes cool, but your other picks were spot on too.

In your 2012 video about the best Bond introductions you say "There has never been a cooler delivery of that line" about Connery in Dr. No, so I thought he was going to be number 1 here. You're full of surprises...

9:59 "Okay. Yes." Love that voice😂

'A degree of cheese' is a wonderful selection of words. Thank you for that :)

The Pierce Brosnan one you have at 5/6 is my personal favorite. And he to me is Bond, i grew up with him and just thought he was the coolest guy ever. I really like Roger Moore i just never really believed in him as bond. Pierece combines the fantasy with reality in a really clever way for me. Loving these videos though mate! Brill stuff, I'd love to see what your top ten action scenes are from bond. My top one for sure is the printing press scene in Tomorrow never dies (i know its crazy) but i just used to love it, great gun fighting and fight scenes all in one. I love the tank chase in goldeneye and (again a bit crazy) the golden gate fight in a view to a kill

Beg your pardon, forgot to knock.. Punches guy in face.

Always good to watch your videos, Calvin! How about doing a Top 10 villian's motive/objective list? What's at stake for Queen & Country? Wiping out the entire human race in Moonraker would probably be the most significant... ;-)

Great video

The world is not enough- pierce shoots the lift up from the bottom shaft saying "bond. James Bond"- the best

for me #1 Dr.no #2 Goldfinger #3 Casino Royale #4 The Living Daylights #5 Goldeneye

Pierce´s might be over the top, but is indeed one of the best. A video about your history as KZfaqr would be great! I love your channel!!!

What no “Names is for tombstones baby!”?

DC is so wooden im suprised he dosent attract termites

1. Brosnan - GoldenEye 2. Craig - Casino Royale 3. Moore - Live and Let Die 4. Connery - Dr. No 5. Connery - Goldfinger

The one from Diamonds are Forever perplexes me. I don't know what was wrong with the way it was in the theatrical trailer.

You should make a list of actors you want to play Bond after Craig.

1000th like! I was hoping one of Connery's would be number 1.

Nice list CD!!!

Totally agree with number 1 Connery is ace also like doctor no one

I can hear the Connery accent taking over in Never Say Never Again and Brosnan sounded American before being an American

Another good one from the Moore comes from The Spy Who Loved Me when does the whole "Bond. James Bond." schtick on Kalba, whose reaction to it was an indifferent "What of it"

Calvin please do a top 10 bond villains next. And do you know where you would put Spectre in your worst to best Bond film list?

I haven't seen all of the films yet, so I didn't know whether or not he said the introduction in every film. But if I'm not mistaken, he doesn't say it in QoS, does he? Any reason that you know of or can guess?

Connery's one in Goldfinger is a really good one but, in my opinion: 1. Dr. No, 2. Casino Royale, 3. GoldenEye.

Terence Young: “Bond, James Bond was supposed to be humorous!” Also Terence Young: *creates one of the coolest, most suave introductions in cinema history* Task Failed Successfully!

Glad you m entioned the accent on TWINE

Number 2 is like, "Do you have a name?" "The name's Bond." Ba da da da da~ "Jimmy Bond."

Do you like it better when he says "My name is Bond, James Bond." Or when he says "The name is Bond.."? I personally hate when they add "The "

Hahaha! Knew you'd have Diamonds Are Forever's delivery as a dishonorable mention. Hilariously awful robot-sounding Connery.

Tomorrow Never Dies at Carvers Night Party is the best 'Bond, James Bond'

I think the Casino Royale delivery is the best one. There's something to really be said about how well coregraphed the final scene is, and the line delivery is the icing on the cake. The World is Not Enough's delivery is a close second, followed by the iconic Dr. No delivery. And I would've tossed out an honorable mention to Tomorrow Never Dies, it's the first time since the Connery era that Bond delivers the line without saying "My name is" or "The Name's".

I always had a soft spot for the Roger Moore, A View To A Kill, in front of the fire truck. His voice is like velvet, so smooth. It's like "this is my last time" and he brings his A-game, which is hilarious because the police chief just brushes it off and I'm always thinking, back off man and show some F**king respect!

Nice video, I agree with you for the most part. But I think that it may have been harsh to downgrade the Brosnan's line from The World is Not enough because of the accent. I presumed it kind of sounded a bit different because they're running away and trying to escape, instead of it actually being intentionally different or him being Irish. His accent in Goldeneye was fine.

Love seeing the changing gunbarrel sequences during your countdown. Makes it all the more engaging.

5. Live And Let Die 4. Casino Royale 3. Goldeneye 2. Goldfinger 1. Dr. No

Connery even looks cool in a Adult "Romper" suit

Where can I watch the more obscure movies? I’ve never seen any of the in between actors or either of Connery’s return films.

+Calvin Dyson | James Bond Reviewer I was reading a Bond novel today and I actually just thought to myself "screw it, I'm imagining this guy as Bond" as a joke, then one chapter lead to another and now I'll never stop picturing you as him when I read the aforementioned novels.

Valentin Zukovsky in TWINE greets him as "Bond James Bond" in a way that's wonderfully disarming and clearly slightly taking the piss.

The ones I really hate are the Tomorrow Never Dies and Die Another Day ones. The pause after "The name's Bond" and the cuts to all the characters faces waiting patiently for 007 to finish "James Bond" just bugs me. It's as if Brosnan wants applause are saying it. I love the Spy Who Loved Me one where the guys is like "Yeah.... and?" Always makes me laugh and I reckon if someone had done that to Brosnan's Bond he would have started crying "But this is my moment!" Dr No is the best imo and the reason I love it is something not mentioned by you here, but the way he only says his name in that odd way is because he's copying Miss Trench. Sylvia Trench. It just makes it cooler.

Calvin, where are your You Only Live Twice and On Her Majesty's Secret Service reviews?

The Diamonds Are Forever line delivery was actually completely normal and un-edited in the trailer.

I know you probably get a lot of suggestions for a top ten one liners video, but may I suggest- TWO such videos: one where he says the line before the death, and one where the line is spoken after the death

Sean Connery was the intro should best Dr no and thunder ball

I normally don't give rankings too much thought because I personally don't see much point in ranking things that one likes, but since this a nice and fun idea for a ranking, I'll play along and choose Dr. No as 1 and Casino Royale as 2. Beyond that I don't have much of an opinion because I don't really remember many introductions 😅

Top 2 1. Dr. No 2. The living daylights

1:02 is that a secret never discovered before Timothy Dalton cameo in a Conner Bond film? (probably not but the resemblance in that extra on the left is uncanny)

is that timothy dalton at 1:02 ?

I love Daltons Bond spitting the 'James Bond' out there What a surprise? Brosnan gets the top spot...

I love Connery's and Dalton's the best.

Hold Up Did I Just See Timothy Dalton in Never Say Never Again?!

3:05 love it

+Calvin Dyson | James Bond Reviewer Are you planing to make a ranking of Bond actors

1:00 is that Timothy Dalton playing Centipede?

might have to make a top 10 of the best "hello bond fans" beginnings. this one had me laughing for 2 minutes before i continued the vid.(no offense)

Anyone else shocked that nr. 4 wasn't nr. 1? I was so sure...
