    AVTAK (Walken, Grace Jones, silly yet fun).
    TSWLM (used to love it as a kid, not so much anymore, but takes out SP)

    TWINE over AVTAK by a small margin. They're both severely underrated imho. TSWLM easily beats SP.

    AVTAK edges out TWINE.

    TSWLM beats up on SP pretty good.

    Without any enthusiasm about either:

    AVTAK over TWINE (roughly the third-worst over the second-worst)
    TSWLM over SP (by maybe 1/10, but still)

    AVTAK, one of the very, very rare instances my vote will go this way.

    TWINE & SP

    Both films are my go to easy watches in the series. They may not be the best, but I find them entertaining 😊

    AVTAK & TSWLM

    TSWLM is higher for me by a decent margin over SP.

    And while I think there is a good film frustratingly lurking within TWINE, and elements of it I really like (elektra/Renard double act, opening boat chase, zukovsky) - it's not high on rewatchablity for me. Whereas AVTAK, for all its faults (geriatric fight scenes, too much literal horseplay, California girls, Moore's lack of chemistry with Roberts) the highs in AVTAK elevate it - the outstanding Barry score, Zorin/mayday double act, Paris chase, San Francisco (I love that city!), theme tune and nostalgia factor means that it higher on the rewatchablity.

    Despite the charm of Sir Rog and the genius of Barry, it'll have to be TWINE. True, it's frustrating, and often embarrassing to watch, but there is a good film trying to get out. And an interesting film, that doesn't always succeed, is better than the standard cookie cutter movie, that typifies Glen's era.

    TSWLM. No need to go into the reasons with this match up.

    TWINE. Closer than I thought as both TWINE and AVTAK are flawed but re-watchable movies. Pierce’s third outing gets the nod here since (IMO) this is his most assured performance as Bond.

    TSWLM. Not close as I very down on SP at the moment.

    YOLT
    Because of its sets, score and trippy '60s fantasy plot, though TND is not a bad Bond film.

    FRWL
    Because logic dictates it.

    TND barely over YOLT - could change, but lately I prefer TND.

    FRWL obliterates DAD.
