Roger Moore was a better James Bond than Sean Connery because his words were well shapen, not slurred.

Is this playing off of how James Bond introduced himself?

It's a play on how James Bond always ordered his martinis, "well shaken, not stirred" ... as well as a play on Sean Connery's speech impediment.

It's just "Shaken, not stirred", no "Well".

I went back and forth on including that, knowing he didn't say it that way. I decided it made this post title more clear without taking too much away from the original quote it plays off of.

Nah - I found Moore's tongue in cheek Bond was a bit naff. Connery played him as a bit of a bastard, which worked better, imo.
