I'm not clear as to the hatred of Moore. Are you confusing him with Connery who advocated violence against women or do you just not like his Bond?

Roger Moore dislikes the more violent James Bond

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Movie audiences nowadays expect scenes of graphic violence in James Bond movies, unlike when Roger Moore played the super spy with a tongue-in-cheek humor, the actor believes.
"I am happy to have done it, but I'm sad that it has turned so violent," Moore said before "Quantum of Solace," starring Daniel Craig as a darker Agent 007, opens in North America on Friday.
"That's keeping up with the times, it's what cinema-goers seem to want and it's proved by the box-office figures," Moore told Reuters in an interview about his memoir, "My Word is My Bond."
The new Bond film opened in London on Oct 31, breaking the British weekend box-office record with a gross of $25 million. It has taken in more than $106 million worldwide so far.
Moore, 81, recalled being appalled at the violence in "A View to a Kill," the 1985 movie which was the last of the seven in which he played Bond. "That wasn't Bond," he said.
In his book, Moore writes of his distaste for guns, ever since he was shot in the leg by a friend with a BB gun as a teenager.

WTH is an Illini? Dead goose?
I think the role of James Bond used to be more about how "cool" he was, and I think he has lost some of that.
The first Bonds exuded coolness and sexy male machoness and that is what I have been noticing a lack of in the more recent Actors.
So Moore would be correct in saying that even though he's a pussy . :tongue2:
