    Wow, that first one is as close as it can be. TND is one spot above AVTAK in my latest rankings. It really could go either way, but I'll give the win to the Brosnan entry this time around as I know how much it pleases our host.

    OP over DAD in every way imaginable.

    I am just happy to see people participate, regardless.

    As much as I have a soft spot for AVTAK, I'm going to go with Pierce's second outing.
    OP easily wins against DAD.

    TND beats AVTAK 17-9

    OP beats DAD 24-2

    Guy Hamilton and Lewis Gilbert both made their debut Bond in the 60s, and returned with the follow-up a few films later, in the 70s. How do you think that went?

    Round 21:

    GF vs DAF

    and

    YOLT vs TSWLM
  • bondjamesbondjames You were expecting someone else?

    GF vs DAF (a lot closer than it probably is for others though)
    TSWLM vs YOLT (total wipeout. I much prefer Gilbert's 2nd kick at the can)

    GF destroys DAF in every way.

    TSWLM wins over YOLT; a great Bond film vs. a very good one IMO.

    I like the idea behind this round @Thunderfinger . Top job Sir.

    GF vs DAF an easy win for GF, despite the likability of DAF

    YOLT vs TSWLM not quite so easy. Once upon a time Spy would've easily beaten YOLT, but age has given me an new appreciation of this Connery classic. But still my into to Bond is hard to beat.

    GF and TSWLM both get comfortable wins, but DAF and YOLT are not without their charms.

    GF over DAF.
    I like both, but DAF is a guilty pleasure film whereas GF gets a genuine recommend.

    TSWLM over YOLT.
    Both are similar in many respects, but TSWLM gave the series a new freshness while YOLT was, in some corners of its production, showing the signs of fatigue.

    Except for PB.

    TSWLM is basically a remake of YOLT, but there are some similarities between GF and DAF as well, in tone and themes.
