    do you mean best or favourite, cause if it's best then most of the connerys are out due to bad production, bad editing etc

    Goldeneye, without a doubt. Pure class, shame for Brosnan that its sequels were absolute dump.

    The Living Daylights or License to Kill a close second.

    I'd have to go with Goldeneye too. As a total package it topped the rest of them.

    the best is probably Goldeneye, but my favourite is Goldfinger
    "do you expect me to talk?"
    "no, Mr. Bond, I expect you to die!"

    Goldfinger- It has Sean Connery saying the phrase 'pussy galore'. No further explination needed.

    I think probably Goldeneye, in terms of everything coming together... From Russia With Love is probably the most enjoyable for me and On Her Majesties Secret Service is the best outright film.

    ...On Her Majesties Secret Service is the best outright film.

    I've been a fan of the Bond films since I was a kid yet I only watched OHMSS for the first time a couple of years ago out of curiosity - and i was knocked out by how good it was! The only weak part of the film was Lazenby's performance, and even then he wasn't that bad. No worse than some of Moore's weaker efforts anyway.
    One of the great shames of the Bond series was that Connery never took the part in OHMSS. If he had it would have made it far and away the best Bond movie ever. Diana Rigg is probably my favourite Bond girl and its a pity we never got to see her on screen alongside Connery - I can only imagine the sexual chemistry!
    Considering its unique storyline and shock ending, it would have made a great farewell film for Connery's Bond, assuming he bowed out with this one and never went on to make the pretty terrible Diamonds Are Forever.
    It also has arguably the best Bond soundrack, with Louis Armstrong's We Have All The Time In The World.
    As it is with Lazenby in it, it probably comes third behind Goldfinger and From Russia With Love.

    On Her Majesty's Secret Service
    A View to a Kill
    The Living Daylights
    Goldeneye

    ... would be my favourites - all great Bond films (don't care much for the rest), with The Living Daylights being best overall.

    100% goldeneye....loved it but as previously said Brosnan's after that were ok but not nearly as good!

    Goldfinger, From Russia With Love, OHMSS, Live and Let Die, Living Daylights, Goldeneye and Casino Royale are the only ones to make a case for imo.

    It's probably not OHMSS even though it probably had one of the best plots and some good action sequences but Lazenby just wasn't up to the task.
    Casino Royale a little to early to tell for sure.
    Goldfinger some bits a little on the cheap side looking back on it but still very good.
    Live and Let Die the best one Moore made but it still wasn't great. He's the worst Bond ever imo. Really cheap one liners, looks like he's 60 all the time and could be beaten up by a youngster.
    For me I'd go with The Living Daylights. I've always thought Dalton was one of the best Bonds and if he hadn't came straight after Moore would have been a sucess. Having said that not much wrong with Goldeneye or From Russia With Love.

    1. The Man with the Golden Gun

    It has everything a bond movie should have

    1) Exotic location (a freakin private island...)
    2) Lasers
    3) Hot ladies on boats
    4) Gold and/or Guns
    5) Mini-evil-butlers with stupid names (knick-knack)
    6) A great bad guy (probably the best)

    ...


    It does have one bad point though... it has Roger Moore in it


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,673 ✭✭✭✭senordingdong


    I'd say Goldeneye...followed closely by Casino Royale.

    2. From Russia With Love
    3. The Living Daylights
