Sometimes, I think the reason they used different actors for James Bond was at least partially for people to tell the movies apart. At different times all day “A View to a Kill,” “Moonraker” and “The Man with the Golden Gun” have been on the Starz or Encore channels. However, being how they ALL STARRED ROGER MOORE, I’ve been totally confused ALL DAY LONG. I mean, it’s pretty clear (if they’re in space, it’s “Moonraker,” if they’re with Chris Walken or Grace Jones, it’s “View,” and if they’re talking about the sun and in a totally ludicrous plot … wait a second, they’re all pretty ludicrous). At least they weren’t showing all seven Roger Moore Bond movies.

And then, I was even more confused when I wasn’t looking closely, and started watching what I thought was “A View to a Kill” but was really “A Time to Kill” (with Samuel L. Jackson and Matthew McConaughey, neither of whom are Bond villians, but for a second I doubted my extensive memory of Bond movies).
