I grew up on steady diet of James Bond films. Loved Sean Connery back then, love his Bond still now. Didn't care much for Roger Moore back then, still don't care much for him now. Always though Timothy Dalton was highly underrated, however.
Strange that my mother would let me watch all of the James Bond films when I was six or seven and yet refuse to let me watch Transformers because it was "too violent". She also let me watch the ultraviolent Chuck Norris films back when I was that age - which I used to love but now see for the silly things that they were. Nobody ever said she was consistent.
