[Lazlow]

The first category includes those ones, which in my opinion are the best. They don't have problems and it is always good to watch them.

1.Thunderball
2.Live and Let Die
3.You Only Live Twice
4.The Man With the Golden Gun
5.Moonraker
6.Diamonds Are Forever
7.Casino Royale '67
8.Dr No
9.From Russia With Love

The second category has those, which have some problems. This group has many different movies. The upper ones are really good ones with only a few problems, while the lower ones have more serious ones, but they are far better than the members of the two lower categories.

10.Goldeneye
11.Die Another Day
12.For Your Eyes Only
13.Casino Royale '06
14.A View to a Kill
15.Never Say Never Again
16.Tomorrow Never Dies

The third and smallest category includes those, which have serious faults, but are saved by something. Goldfinger is saved by Goldfinger and Oddjobb, The Spy Who... is saved by Roger Moore, Dayligths is saved by, well... probably by Barry's score.

17.The Living Daylights
18.The Spy Who Loved Me
19.Goldfinger

The last one containes the worst of Bond. Nothing more can be said about them. Well only the fact, that I find it funny, that I dislike those movies, which others find the best.

20.The World is Not Enough
21.On Her Majesty's Secret Service
22.Octopussy
23.Licence to Kill

[agentjamesbond007]

I don't know if there is an existing thread of this but what is your favorite james bond movie of all that you seen?

Mine seems to be The Spy who Loved Me.

What's yours? Care to Share?

[Double-0-7]

I think Casino Royale will be a popular answer, and I do enjoy this film. The Spy Who Loved Me is high on my list, but having just viewed [film=99]On Her Majesty

[sharpshooter]

GoldenEye is my favourite film.

[killkenny kid]

Still, On Her Majesty's Secret Service. But, Casino Royale and Thunderball both hold a close second.

[Cruiserweight]

I have a hard time picking from any of Rogers films.I switch through a few of his every so often.


Usually
LALD
FYEO
AVTAK


Right now i'm favoring LALD

[Licence_007]

FRWL for me.

[Vauxhall]

ON HER MAJESTY'S SECRET SERVICE followed (in no particular order) by CASINO ROYALE, THUNDERBALL and LICENCE TO KILL.

Wow! It's that time of the year again. Time to post my list again, which remains relatively unchanged from last year. I guess the scariest thing is that I have "A View To A Kill" up to 14th on my list! It's actually grown on me a bit in recent years, though hopefully not much more than this!

The Living Daylights is my favorite Bond film, with For Your Eyes Only, Thunderball, Licence to Kill, and From Russia With Love rounding out my Top 5.

Your top 5 pretty much matches mine as far as TLD, TB and FRWL are concerned. However, I'd replace FYEO and LTK with OHMSS and CR. I caught the last 1/3(often considered the "weakest" part) of TLD today on Spike and it hit me why I love this film so much. It's so well written, well-acted and intelligently done. TLD comes close to being my absolute favorite Bond film. Only the fact that TB and FRWL are closer to the actual period Ian Fleming lived and wrote in and reflect those sensibilities very well that keeps me from ranking TLD higher than I do. It also saddens me that Dalton was too young for OHMSS and too old for CR because both of those would be great films for his Bond.

Having just completed a nearly three week long marathon of the Bond films (and having kept a running ranking of the films which was updated after watching each film in order), I have to update my rankings. Needless to say, there was a major shakeup at the top of my list, which, honestly, surprised me.

5. Thunderball

2 Thunderball
3 Casino Royale
4 Dr. No*
5 On Her Majesty's Secret Service
6 Live and Let Die

16 License to Kill
17 Diamonds are Forever
18 Tomorrow Never Dies
19 A View to a Kill
20 You Only Live Twice
21 The World is not Enough

*Dr. No probably gets a higher ranking than it deserves on its own accord. But

[bonds_walther]

1. Casino Royale
2. Goldeneye

5. From Russia With Love
6. The Spy Who Loved Me

16. Licence To Kill
17. Die Another Day
18. The Man With The Golden Gun
19. A View To A Kill
20. Octopussy
21. Diamonds Are Forever

It's hard to differentiate between some of the Bond films. 17-21 are certainly my least favourite and 1-10 are my top 10. Whether they would stay in that order depends....

Casino Royale is certainly #1.

[tama_drummer91]

My list changes slightly overtime, but this is pretty much my standard list from favorite to least favorite.

1 From Russia With Love
2 Casino Royale
3 For Your Eyes Only

7 The World Is Not Enough
8 Live and Let Die
