:(

In any sensible best Bond film discussion, one puts Moonraker to one side and then argues about the next best ;)

Which, in no particular order, is -

Goldfinger
On Her Majesty's Secret Service (also hands down the best soundtrack... amazing)
Live and Let Die
You Only Live Twice
Man with the Golden Gun
From Russia With Love

Funnily enough, I don't actually disagree Mullers.

You are wrong though, obviously.

Disagree with some of what you post, but you've nailed this one.




Except I'm not that fussed about Goldeneye either really, I thought it's big claim was for the video game?

No idea when I began here, was a very long time ago. Previously known as Spirit_of_81. Love cheese, hate the colour of it, this is why it requires some blue in it.

I actually always thought On Her Majesty's Secret Service was a decent film.

The others, though I would be glued to them as a kid, are now just so outdated I find it hard to watch any of them.

As a kid, Connery was Bond, and anyone else didn't count until Daniel Craig, who has absolutely made the character his own.

The Dalton films are great and massively underrated.

Watch the Dalton films again. You’ll see how the grittier Bond started with Dalton.

Licence to Kill was ahead of its time.

All 2 of them.

I will give them another go at some point when they're on again.

This was the 80s remember, so not exactly fresh in the mind and I can't say I've shown much interest since.

But it's nice you have some new friends. Are you sure if Gav did some research those others voting wouldn't be new accounts posting from the middle of some ocean!?

Stoke is rarely wrong about stuff.

I reckon Gav is a Dalton man too. He always comes across as a fine fellow.

Featuring a mid-air lassoing of a plane! A stunt copied by Christopher Nolan in the Dark Knight.

But also the opening sequence of Skyfall is pretty good too!

Great stuff.

Am going to have to watch it again now, not seen it in years.

As you say, the start of the more "gritty" bonds and perhaps because it's not traditional bond a lot of people aren't so keen on it.

What that clip does not show is that Partridge is actually addressing Cubby Broccoli. Best opening credits to a film based on an Ian Fleming book:



Also best cast, best director, best Bonds, best soundtrack, best director and best cinematographers.
