I couldn't agree more, but for me it happened even before Connery was gone from the scene. If you were a devotee of the novels ( I still reread them), they went askew completely starting with the movie "You Only Live Twice". That movie bore little resemblance to the book. Later ones only continued (I thought there was some minor redemption with Craig's first Bond movie).
Also, even in the Connery movies, Bond's character morphed into a sarcastic, prank playing, witty god to women. The actual (i.e. written) Bond was not funny, and was a very hard man, almost with a depressing sense of future doom. Obviously, this won't sell many movies.
I would guess that if Fleming had lived longer, he would have been very much against the different bond that showed up in the movies.
