Well I like the man Roger Moore on that basis, but as Bond he was the worst. Or perhaps the best, given that the whole attention eating endeavor is shite. (Wait, Brosnan was the worst...)
In my unwritten story for The Death of James Bond, Bond is a codename for a series of legendary assassin-agents. Lazenby is the one the agency itself murdered, because he broke down and showed too much weakness after Diana Rigg's death. Moore is the clean-cut robot propaganda version, periodically brought out of mothballs for TV appearances, a friend to the Queen. Brosnan is the sheer thug moron killer who goes rogue (Russians?!) and kills Moore in a public fashion to set off a plot in which the octagenarian (nonagenarian?) Connery, the exiled original, now equipped with wheelchair and colostomy bag, is pressed back into duty to stop him. (Dalton is ignored and Craig never gets to exist.)
Of course, Casino Royale (1967) already took care of it. It should have been the last. But does anyone ever listen?
