For me it's Roger Moore.

Moore, by far the worst

Moore.

Entertaining when I was 12. Unwatchable now.

Moore as The Saint worked. Not as Bond.

Let's just say that Live and Let Die didn't age as well as Jane Seymour.

A beautiful and elegant lady who in her prime was... intoxicating.

I really don't mind Moore's Bond but I hated the Dalton version. I pretend they don't exist.
My Ranking:
Craig
Connery
Brosnan
Moore
Lazenby
Dalton

Once Craig took the stage with Casino Royal, all that came before were diminished. Most decimated. Some early Connery stuff still has some charm to me. But honestly, Moore, Brosnan, Dalton... Somewhere between Meh and Blech!

You are right on that- I just realized that Octopussy is the only Bond movie that I never saw in a cinema. Meh.

I used to find all the James Bond movies unwatchable.
Now I can enjoy the Connery ones for their campiness.

Connery IS Bond for me. Brosnan is the only other acceptable Bond.

The answer I have closest to your question's premise is Pierce Brosnan, but "unwatchable" is a bit strong. I just find him tepid.

Dalton and Lazenby are the only two whose movies I haven't seen. Out of the others, I guess I'll pick Moore.

Why so much hate for Timothy Dalton? He was the more serious, grittier Bond before Daniel Craig.

I think Dalton made a good Bond but got bad scripts (for all two of his films).

Anything with Moore being tough. "Stop, or I'll be so polite and proper I'll annoy you to death."

About as convincing as Rowan Atkinson kicking someone's ass.

Yep. Goldfinger set the tone for me when it was released.

didn t like Moore.

Didn't like the Brosnan movies, he was OK as Bond, but the stories just sucked

I thought Dalton was a good Bond

Moonraker still rules because it has a laser gun battle in space, so there's that.
