The James Bond of the books is a completely different character from the James Bond of the movies. The Daniel Craig verison is the closest to Fleming's "barbarian with a thin veneer of civilization," but still a very different character. On the other hands, most of the movies are more "based on the title of a popular novel" than actually film adaptations of Fleming's stories.
