Alright well all of my bond movies that are my favorites are completely taken. I am deciding between Quantum of Solace, Live and Let Die or Dr. No.

I believe I will go with Live and Let Die because Soltaire is one of my favorite Bond girls of all time and I love the Live and Let Die beginning title song sooo there you have it! :)

Thank you, maybe I’m taking one for the team here. But while Dr. No would have been my obvious choice among those available, I will state I find Casino Royale an admittedly extremely guilty pleasure. Not only does it score spectacular heights on the Train-Wreck-O-Meter, there is also Burt Bacharach’s seriously quirky score to consider. And given the amount of talent involved, the story of the film’s disastrous outcome plays as a nice, cautionary tale as well. So yes, chalk me up as a Casino Royale apologist.

 

But anyways,

As long as I have a good stiff drink, or two, on hand, Casino Royale '67 is a hoot for me to watch...In fact, I find it more hillarious than all three of Mike Myers's Austin Powers spoofs so it'll find it's way into my Bond viewing rotation every now and then...thanks for taking one for the team, Otis! :D

I'll take TND before it's too late.  Favorite Brosnan, Arnold score, good stunts and Q scene, interesting villain.  First half is nearly perfect for my tastes.

I pick A View to a Kill - Not the best or my favourite but one of my faves. And like SecretAgentFan I declare this the series' most underrated entry.

Ahem... OCT goes before NSNA.

Sigh... no, Major Tallon. You're playing the game wrong. You also bumped me from the list.

 

Only one person per film. Let me explain the rules that 00Hockey Mask set out...

 

Everyone has a favorite Bond movie. But not everyone shares the same opinion as far as which is the best, the king of the mountain, the crème of the crop. Are our favorites just coming from a pool of 12-15 movies or does every Bond incarnation have a special place in someone's heart? So, if you see your favorite Bond movie on the list, tell us why that Bond movie is your favorite, move it to the bottom of the list and add your name next to it and post a revised updated list. No pity picks. It has to be your favorite.

 

 

 

It seems most people have ignored the game's rules. So here again is the list. There are now only four films left that nobody considers their favorite or one of their absolute favorites. If the four remaining films are not among your favorites then don't join in. :P

The World is Not Enough -

I don't think it's fair to single out Major Tallon on this one since the rules haven't really been followed at all as originally set out by 00HockeyMask.  The object is to pick your one favorite film, if it's available.  If your absolute favorite Bond film isn't available, then you don't get to pick.  That's what was originally set out as the rules, but they really haven't been followed, and there have certainly been picks that could be considered "pity" picks.

Fair enough, but there's a world of difference between picking one of your favorite films... and...  adding your name second to a film on the list and bumping me in the process.

That's okay, we're among friends here. Sorry if my post came across wrong. It was more a facepalm moment than anything else.

What a great deabte this has made - surprised to see 'Dr.No' in the bottom with 'TWINE' and 'DAD'!

 

Oh well...let's see who takes the final one for 'DAD', and I guess 'NSNA' but I never count that....
