    Your least/most favorite Bond movie?

    For me, least favorite was Octopussy

    Favorite is not easy, but Live And Let Die is my choice.

    It just has everything in a Bond movie I want, and set a world record for longest boat jump in this scene:

    I don't even count the movie with George Lazenby as a real Bond movie. I really don't like the one with Timothy Dalton, can't stand him and the story was weak.

    I have to say my favorite is Skyfall. Liked it so much, i bought the watch.


    Riots are like sports, it's better to watch it on TV at home.

    I like "The Man with the Golden Gun", but the British Actor Christopher Lee has always been a favorite of mine.

    Both that film and "Live and Let Die" gave us character actor Clifton James...."a swamp full of Black Russians". Pure fun.

    The bond spoof Casino Royale (1967) because of Woody Allen. Just hated that crap and despise Woody Allen.

    Hard to have a favorite, love "You Only Live Twice" because of it's showcase of Japanese martial arts and Donn Draeger functioned as a stand in for Sean Connery and technical advisor.

    I think Goldfinger is the quintessential Bond movie from opening sequence / theme song to storyline to cool gadgets and girls. But I absolutely loved the new Casino Royale and Daniel Craig was to me the first convincing Bond the Fleming books imagined and the lack of 60s camp was refreshing. Sean Connery could pull it off most of the time, Roger Moore could pull it off some of the time and the other two guys who played Bond after that...I can't even remember their names of the movies.

    Live and Let Die might be the greatest Bond theme song ever, although I admit a fondness for Duran Duran's "A View To A Kill" even though the movie was mostly hard to watch.

    The new Casino Royale is my favorite. Anything before that was too campy, over the top and full of ridiculous gadgets.

    Moonraker was probably the one I least liked, But after that is hard to do a favorite. Skyfall, You only live twice, Goldfinger, Diamonds are forever. But probably Skyfall gritty and he had to use his brain ans was short on gadgets. Plus I really like the new Money Penny

    I'm gonna be odd man out, I really didn't care for Skyfall. I think Quantum of Solace was better, but not as good as Casino.

    'Skyfall' by a f******g mile.

    I saw 'Skyfall' as an aging 'Action Man,' and it really resonated. That movie made a point to depict an aging, damaged operative in what is and always will be a young man's game. It hit closer to home and is appealing because the others never showed the cost of fighting, being wounded, having shit broken/torn/hyperextended, etc. Props for that. The Daniel Craig movies were better for that, but the rest were just fantasy for theater goers.
    Where violence is the local language, be fluent.
