    Quoting PrinceKamalKhan: Inside the circus tent at the U.S. military base in West Germany in OP

    He didn't even defuse it in GF...and was about to pull the wrong wire.

    Quoting Luds: OHMSS - Bond escape ski chase

    I've just watched FYEO and it does have stunning ski chases. But Majesty's are better.

    Red Lotus - FYEO - What can I say? I like red!

    Better big end battle:

    The Spy Who Loved Me

    OR

    The Spy Who Loved Me. One of my top 5 final battles in the series.

    Tracy di Vicenzo

    Which of these has better directing by Campbell:

    GoldenEye

    Casino Royale, no contest!

    Which of these was worse directed by Guy Hamilton:

    Diamonds Are Forever

    OR

    The Man With The Golden Gun?

    Which is the best ally?

    Saunders (TLD)

    Having just recentley just had a go on this thread I'm going to leave this for someone else to reply to, but just in case people are unsure the correct answer is Saunders! :)

    I'll recognize Saunders. ^:)^

    Which is creepier?

    Going to bed and seeing Irma Bunt, or

    Knowing Rosa Klebb is filming you?

    Quoting Kerim: Going to bed and seeing Irma Bunt
    I think...

    Who would you rather face:

    Oddjob with Jaws' teeth

    OR

    Jaws with Oddjob's hat?

    Oddjob with Jaws' teeth

    Creepy but quite cool too.


    The character of Largo (TB)

    or

    The character of Drax (MR)?

    Both fantastic but I'll pick the character of Drax (MR)

    Better fight scene:

    Bond vs. Jacques Bouvard in the TB PTS

    or

    Bond vs. Draco's thugs on the beach in the OHMSS PTS?

    Well, this one's tough, but I'll choose Thunderball's pre-title sequence. A little more color and excitement.

    Next: Better shoot-out

    You Only Live Twice volcano attack

    or

    The Spy Who Loved Me Liparus attack
  • anotherbondgeekanotherbondgeek
    Posts: 423
    Ooh, the two best endings in the series. I'll go for the YOLT volcano because it's just more iconic and classic. The Liparus siege is amazing, though.

    The character of Domino Derval from Thunderball

    vs

    The character of Fiona Volpe from Thunderball
  • 00Beast00Beast
    Posts: 4,762
    I'd say Fiona Volpe. In my opinion, Domino was rather dull and wooden. She didn't really bring anything to the movie except her looks. At least Volpe gave us a mad villainess who knew what she was doing! Great choices, @anotherbondgeek!

    Next: Death of an Ally

    The death of Sir Godfrey Tibbett in AVTAK

    or

    The death of Sharkey in LTK

    Casino scene in Thunderball. Love the cracks from Bond thrown at Largo! Also, just pure classic 007.
