I think that branie means is what was the first Bond film that you remember seeing. A View to a Kill is probably the first one that I remember. Rodger Moore as james Bond and Christopher Walken as Max Zorin. I remember it was on a christmas in the late 80's but not sure which year it was.

Diamonds Are Forever on TV when I was a nipper.
Dalton was my fav. - very faithful to the books and a total dish!!! *swoon*

Goldeneye probably, I never really watched them on TV.

I remember being blown away when I saw the trailer and he popped his little head out of the tank after it broke through a wall.

yea i use to love that bond film especially the fire engine chase and the blimp at the end was quality but when i look back on it now god roger moore was far to old to be bond in that film

Saw Live and Let Die in the cinema. Cant remember which one on tv, probably Goldfinger.

Seen him in the Savoy as a schoolboy of nine or ten.

Over the years, Sean Connery was a Bond to match, a few who did I think are Brosnan, Dalton and the latest guy, Craig looks set to be the new iconic figure.

I don't include the Saint in this as I believe the Bond movies took a turn away from the main character plotline during his watch, and as such he was the perfect actor for them, a Bond, but not a Bond, a sort of funny Bond .... my fav from his series is the Louisiana sheriff "... a secret agent? On who's side?"

1983 - a brilliant season - all the Bond films in chronological order up to Moonraker, I think - they even showed the original Casino Royale of 1967 for the completists.

First Bond film i saw was Never Say Never Again, all i really remembered was the underwater battle at the end, I was really young, 6 or 7 & it was on christmas day. Next one after that would have been Thunderball , great movie.

Haha, you basically saw the same film twice!

My first was Octopussy. I fuping love James Bond films thought there are a few to avoid, in my opinion mainly:

The Man with the Golden Gun
Moonraker
The World is not Enough
Die Another Day

Tomorrow Never Dies is just about bearable...

I was too young at the time to realise that they were the same movie hehe Still though, i enjoy them both to this day.

Agree with you on The world is not enough & Die Another Day, being honest, Bond for me died after Licence to Kill, I would not be a fan of the Brosnan era at all. However, Moonraker is cheese gold, you just have to love it, its James Bond in space after all !!

First Bond was Live and Let Die in the local fleapit in 1973. I still like that one better than many for its groovy speedboats.
