Moore, Sir Roger Moore... (lemmy.ml)

Sir Roger Moore quotes of note.

Today I am completely opposed to small arms and what they can do to children. I played every role tongue-in-cheek because I don't really believe in that sort of hero. I don't like guns.

To me, the Bond situations are so ridiculous, so outrageous. I mean, this man is supposed to be a spy and yet, everybody knows he's a spy. Every bartender in the world offers him martinis that are shaken, not stirred. What kind of serious spy is recognized everywhere he goes? It's outrageous. So you have to treat the humor outrageously as well. My personality is entirely different than previous Bonds. I'm not that cold-blooded killer type. Which is why I play it mostly for laughs.

My acting range? Left eyebrow raised, right eyebrow raised.

My dad watched a lot of Bond when I was a kid and I never liked the Moore ones because I thought they were too silly. But this puts a different spin on them and I appreciate Moore’s thoughtfulness. Good man.

Same, although I think I watched them all, cause, well, Bond, I liked his version the least. Bond himself, imo, was not campy, but the setting in which he existed at times, was, like a comic book setting.
