SP: I’m not a fan of SPECTRE, it’s slow, plotless, villain less, dialogue less, and has Scooby gang and brother gate, but, it has got some good action. NSNA on the other hand is one of the worst films I have ever seen in my whole life. Not only does it shit all over bond as a brand but it has awful action and looks poorly made with too much silliness.
NSNA vs SP
SP over NSNA Another very close one.
SP over NSNA with a clear margin.
TWINE and TND are very close in my rankings,mid table,i just prefer the storyline and what they were trying to attempt with TWINE ,rather than a formulaic Bond flick..TWINE gets my vote (and Electra is a brilliant character.)
SP vs NSNA
NSNA isnt EON ,so its not an official Bond film,it would never get my vote,but SP kicks the shit out of it anyway..SP easily gets my vote.
TWINE over TND
NSNA over SP
Long and partially OT answer:
I would rank TWINE over TND because I like Bond skiing and I simply love Sophie Marceau :-)
NSNA above SP: I am a huge fan if Craig - but NSNA has Connery and in this movie he is playing the part with so much fun again so he clearly wins. As much as I embrace SP‘s production values, the better M, Moneypenny and Q plus I truly like and love the return of Mr. White ... NSNA has the way better Blofeld and overall plot. The „henchmen/henchwomen“ is a tie for me (on the good side) and another tie in the soundtrack (both are horrible). And if that wouldn‘t be enough: Any other Bondfilm without brothergate and not the terrible „Writings on the wall“ will always win. To me, the whole brothergate thing is the very same bullshit as CR67 has to offer. It is a shame they wasted so much talent in every aspect over this silly and shitty script.
On a sidenote: I did a cut for myself of SP where I re-dubbed the titles with different music and have cut out the whole „Evil Lair“-thing, the whole „MI6-building-collapsing“ stuff and the bridge thing. Bond just leaves after Nine Eyes collapses into the sunset and that‘s it. To me, the movie is watchable this way and highlights the many good things it has to offer.
SP is more of a Bond travesty than NSNA will ever be. Despite it being the only non-EON Bond film it is closer to what I consider a good Bond entry than SP. Also, love that impressive cast.
SP
SP beats a hate filled exercise.
SPECTRE beats NSNA, because it's an official Bond film* and the production value is amazing.
*Why is NSNA included in this tournament in the first place?? At least have the other two non-EON Bond films compete... or just none of them - which is the better option imo.
My thinking exactly...why the hell do we give time to these unofficial pieces of crap..one made full of indulgence,laziness and arrogance,and one made with pure hatred and an attempt to destroy an official Bond film in OP.
This is partly why Connery will never be my #1 ....he seriously bit the hand that fed him (or made him a superstar) several times.
The 67 CR is a parody. The 54 CR a live tv theatre production. They are different beasts.
That ,at least ,i can partly agree with...if CR'67 appears in ANYTHING on here then i wont be participating.
Hahaha yes ,and it was a 007 Birthday cake i got as well !!
TND vs TWINE. A choice between a film that basically recycles the Lewis Gilbert formula of YOLT/TSWLM but does it slickly, competently and unpretentiously versus a film that attempts to give the Brosnan era its OHMSS/CR type entry but doesn't have the courage of its convictions and mixes it up with too many elements of the 1971-1985 action comedy style era of Bond. TND wins.
and
NSNA vs SP. I don't hate NSNA but whenever I want to see Sean Connery's Bond in an underwater adventure battling Largo, a femme fatale and SPECTRE over stolen nuclear warheads with a beautiful girl called Domino I'd rather watch it with John Barry music, Terence Young direction, the opening gunbarrel, the James Bond theme and Terence Young's direction aka TB. I'm probably in the minority here, but I actually consider SP neither one of the worst nor one of the best Bond films but an enjoyable enough mid-range entry. SP wins.
You know what they say about great minds, @barryt007. ;)
NSNA over SP by a whole heck of a lot. Look, perhaps I shouldn't like NSNA because of McClory, but I just can't help myself. I just have too much fun with it. I'd choose to watch it over SP any day.
SP>NSNA
If it would be Thunderball vs Spectre, TB would win this one.
SP...even though it's freefalling in my rankings
Every time I hear that phrase -
NSNA is more like the pony. It is still a horse.
NSNA v SP - Whilst the cast in NSNA is fantastic pretty much everything else is a cheap and nasty knock off from a pathetic man desperate to squeeze every last penny out of some ill gotten rights to a character he contributed nothing to turn into a global sensation. SP is riddled with faults, several indefensible ones, but still there is a lot of excellent stuff in there. A comfortable win.
Cracking post.
