Better Craig stunt:

No question - the Aston Martin flip. That was a real stunt, so that wins.

Definitely Bond shooting the "fake" Blofeld with the piton gun in the penthouse...

 

Most underwhelming demise of a Bond villain... Bond simply shooting Scaramanga at the end of TMWTGG OR Kristatos getting knifed in the back by Colombo in FYEO?

Bond vs. the thugs in San Monique. I always hated that stupid ass shotgun.

Swan dive from top of Maiden's Tower in TWINE

Bond vs. Scaramanga. Even though the fun house is silly, I still love the whole sequence.

 

 

 

Best Connery stunt:

The jet pack from TB

OR

Scaling the outside of the Whyte House in DAF

I think scaling the exterior of the Whyte House in 'Diamonds Are Forever' - seems to have a bit more realism and danger about it, often over-looked as it's quite a small scale stunt.

 

Best gun play in 'The Spy Who Loved Me'...

 

Bond vs the KGB in the pre-title sequence

Bond vs. Stromberg. Definitely one of Bond's coldest kills.

 

 

Now I know this isn't Bond related but:

I think 'GoldenEye' pushes it actually by trying to be too real, but going too over-the-top to do so.

 

Best gun play in 'For Your Eyes Only'...

 

Melina and her crossbow against Gonzalez and Kristatos's men

'A View To A Kill' - one of the best scores of the series, very Bond.

Bond on the bannister. Classic Roger Moore Bond.

 

 

For Bond 24 do you want:

Another behemoth with a run time over 140 minutes like Casino Royale and Skyfall

OR

A short, fast-paced adventure like Quantum of Solace or the early Connery films

?

A short, fast-paced adventure like 'Quantum of Solace' or the early Connery films. Craig and co have proved they've got it right with 'Skyfall', so just condense it a little bit and it will be brilliant!

I'll go with Bond on the Eiffel Tower, although I don't particularly like either.
