Oh. Close call. Non-classic Connery vs low-budged Dalton. Dalton wins, an underrated 007.

Bottom of the Bond barrel in my opinion. Ill go with LtK

Dalton's Bond's were actually really good. it bothers me how most people don't seem to realize that. And this one's easy - a too old Connery in a film that isn't even officially part of the franchise.

Count me among the pro-Dalton camp. As a reader of Ian Fleming's novels, I really appreciate his take on Bond. And "Licence to Kill" is really the film adaptation that "Live and Let Die" should have been.

NSNA, the unofficial Bond film and remake of Thunderball, is not very good at all; an aging Connery rubbing up against Kim Basinger is enough to ruin this flick. Dalton is, however, supremely underrated as Bond; LTK is a very "Americanized" take on Bond, but still very good.

Dalton gets the easy win.

Licence to Kill is flawed, very flawed in fact, but it's much better than NSNA.

Ugh, Never Say Never Again is such a brutal, unrelenting slog to me. It's truly a bad movie. Licence to Kill is also a bit of a bore but, since it does have more going on in its story, I'd call it an easy winner here.

Aww, man, hard decision.
