The Austin Powers movies parodied classic Bond villains so savagely that they had no choice but to reboot the entire franchise and make it dark and super-serious, because no one could take it seriously anymore.
The first one was great, the rest mostly forgettable. Which is exactly what happened with Pierce Brosnan too really. Neither case was the actor's fault.
Pierce Brosnan was a better Bond then Craig. Casino Royal was good, better then the rest but even then he was way to serious to be Bond. After that it was just not Bond.
Pierce was Bond in all of his movies even if the movies themselves were not that great.
Judi Dench said he was by far her favorite. He always had a good attitude and was fun to work with. They're still friends and do stage work together when they can.

I mean, while this is true, have you, uhh, seen all the Roger Moore films..?
They tried the same thing with Dalton. It wasn’t just because of Austin Powers…
I liked the Moore films even if they were campy. You can't tell me The Spy Who Loved Me didn't have the best Bond car ever.
