My favorite has always been GoldenEye. And no, it's not just because I grew up as a kid playing the N64 game. It has two of the coolest scenes (IMO) of all Bond films, not to mention awesome music and visuals.
(Cute how they tried to dress a T-55 up like a T-80BV)

Discuss, Stormers!!!

Well, I don't wanna make you crankier, but where are the more recent Bond films? I like Daniel Craig.

Nevermind..

that tank scene is pretty glorious in how over the top it is. pretty funny that in the 90s it was plausible you could blow up downtown moscow and no one would care

I guess I'll go with the Lazenby one due to the hardcore ending.

Thunderball is my favorite bond movie.

But this is my favorite theme song

Daniel Craig's Bond is not James bond, they are stories based on James Bond films.

I'm a bit of a purist. I only consider it a "real" Bond film if it was based on one of Fleming's books or stories. Not that the movies didn't take considerable liberties on the books, and not that some of the newer ones aren't enormously entertainimg.

OHMSS was probably the film most faithful to its original book.

annjee 2017-08-06 12:18:42 UTC #10

What does that mean?

colonial_german 2017-08-06 12:48:03 UTC #11

Dainel Craig's Bond is a reboot of James Bond for modern films. Yes each time a new actor became Bond a new story line was started but they were playing the same character. He doesn't have the same demeanor as the Bonds of the past. Craig's Bond is a brooding pretty boy with a troubled past, not an international man of mystery. The director said when the first Craig Bond flick was released they restarted from scratch.

annjee 2017-08-06 12:52:11 UTC #12

Oh ok, I see. I didn't see the original Casino Royale. Do you know if it's the same as the recent one , but with Daniel Craig as Bond? Is the script, storyline the same?

colonial_german 2017-08-06 13:00:01 UTC #13

Yes they have similarities but porn parodies follow the story of their parent film as well. That doesn't mean they are equal.

annjee 2017-08-06 13:01:11 UTC #14

Lol...okay.

OHMSS is considered by many Bond aficionados, myself included, as the best film in the franchise.
Perhaps because it is the most romantic of all Bond films. I thought Lazenby had a great mix of rugged handsomeness, humor, and charm, a cross between Connery and Moore.
I think The Spy Who Loved Me and The Man with the Golden Gun were both underrated.
Brosnan looked the part but the movies just aren't any good, weak plots, weak villains, and I dislike Judy Densch.
A good poll would be who is the hottest Bond girl.

where's Casino Royale

GreenManalishi 2017-08-06 13:32:00 UTC #17

You've GOT to see it. Diana Rigg is wonderful in it.

Mosin-Nagant 2017-08-06 13:33:16 UTC #18

At the bottom. Can only do 20 poll items at a time.

annjee 2017-08-06 13:35:08 UTC #19

Thank you, I will.

From Russia With Love.....I swear Daniela Bianchi....if I posted a photo of my mother in her early twenties (which I cannot), she is her doppelganger. And I love how @Mr_Bond says "the Lectre" and "Spectre".
