    There's a little problem with OHMSS : Which chase are we talking about ? The one by the moonlight, or the one in the daylight with Tracy ?

    They are both the best in the series, as far as I am concerned.

    1. OHMSS (fast-paced, exciting, gruesome in places, and exquisitely filmed)
    2. FYEO (marred somewhat by Bill Conti’s score and the silly ending where Kriegler apparently can’t shoot Bond from twenty feet away, but amazing nonetheless)
    3. TSWLM (solid chase and a lot of fun, punctuated by the best end to any setpiece in Bond history)
    4. AVTAK (so much fun and well choreographed, and I even sort of like the Beach Boys song playing over it – sue me, AVTAK was my first Bond movie so I can’t help but feel affectionate)
    5. TWINE (not bad, but feels a little “meh” – the only ski chase in the series that I don’t find particularly exciting or engaging)

    My exact ranking.

    Mine too.

    OHMSS by a mile.
    FYEO only beats Spy because it's longer and has some good ideas.
    TSWLM a classic.
    AVTAK marred by a gag soundtrack.
    TWINE

    Hmmm I love a good ski chase and have been missing them since 1999.

    Anyway, here it goes:

    1. OHMSS
    2. AVTAK
    3. FYEO
    4. TSWLM
    5. TWINE

    Quite like them all really.
