Tarantino said, not wrote:

Tarantino said: “Sean Connery, Pierce Brosnan, then just a little under him, Roger Moore.

“And then everybody else. Connery’s at the top, but I really, really like Pierce Brosnan.

This makes me happier than it probably should.

Of course, he did want to do a Brosnan film didn't he?

Yes, though I don't know about Uma Thurman being Vesper, which was rumoured to be the case. Catherine Zeta Jones, however...

Just when you think he has no taste...you get a surprisingly well worded statement like this.

No love for Tim Dalton?

It would have been nice for him to go into a bit of detail on each. Hard to imagine how he'd feel about Dalton. I'd guess he wouldn't like Craig (maybe because his version of CR - and James Bond - is terrible and not how Tarantino envisaged it) , and think the world of OHMSS and be entertained by Lazenby (given his fondness for Aussies) but not enough to warrant him a good Bond.

I also don't think he's that much of a Bond fan to be honest.

My impression is that he likes the books and 60s films. Beyond that he's likely not a big fan of the rest, though I recall reading that he was a fan of LTK but can't find any reference.

Most exciting is that his New Beverly Cinema is supposed to be running dye transfer original IB technicolor prints of FRWL-OHMSS in July. Anyone in the LA area HAS to go. These are incredibly rare to see these days.
Those are my most desired things to see in the world. Nothing will ever compare to a properly preserved original IB print and it is how these films were meant to be seen.

If Tarantino ever does a Bond film he'll be focusing on ladies feet and toes a lot because the man's foot fetish is legendary.

The shoe fits.

If only! I've seen IB trailers and they're gorgeous.
To top that off the Academy just screened an unused 70mm print of Star Wars today with Lucas's permission so perhaps the snow is finally melting. Wonders never cease...and I don't live in LA....
