What was said about them, by kind

career (3)

  1. career (career): Sean Connery → Daniel Craig. Craig is a legitimately great actor, which wasn't true of most Bonds; Connery hadn't yet built his chops.
    “They were great movie performers, but not necessarily great actors.”

  3. career (career): Chris Hemsworth → Sean Connery. Doubts that Hemsworth is just a big stuntman echo Fleming dismissing Connery as an overblown stuntman when cast as Bond.
    “Ian Fleming publicly was like, he's not an actor.”

theme (1)

  1. theme (theme): Sean Connery → Marvel Cinematic Universe. Connery cameo would feel like Marvel interconnection, which Bond movies are not.

unmapped (1)

verdict (1)

  1. verdict (verdict): Roger Moore → Sean Connery. Moore beating Robocop was the biggest Patreon bracket surprise; the speaker expected Connery to beat him.
