But from the list, Largo easily has the best fashion of the listed villains.
The slapping in OHMSS bothers me the most, because it's a love story.
I've been rewatching the films in order and Bond slaps women in many of the early films: FRWL, GF, OHMSS, DAF, TMWTGG...
I can't vote for the best dressed villai (but it nevertheless is a great idea for a Bondie). There are a few moments where I think Bond (when he meets Jill Masterson or his pink tie in DAF) or a Bondgirl (the brown thing Goodhead is wearing in Venice) are dressed strange/bad but I wouldn't recognize the best dressed person and leave the place for more fashion-concious fans.
And apropo of nothing, "I'm Alonso Mosley!"
Don't forget the shades.
Okay time to swing back to Klebbie! This is the big one. This is for worst picture! The series has had it's fair share of clunkers. Lets see which one the academy decides is the worst of the worst. Lets Look at the nominees:
Okay my dear academy members! What do you deem to be the worst film of the series.
I like QoS a lot despite it's problems, as a more down to earth and exciting Bond film. I like the themes on revenge, and the climax at Perla de los Dunas.
I liked TMWTGG more the last time I watched it, love the conceit of the golden gun, love the assassin vs. assassin theme, love Christopher Lee of course.
DAD is another film I liked a lot more on my last viewing than I expected I would. It absolutely has it's problems, but I like Halle Berry here, I like Toby Jones as well (my problem is with the "gene therapy" plot much more than it is with either Colonel Moon or Gustav Graves, or their respective actors). It's over the top but it has a lot of fun moments. And I love the car battle (minus all the invisible stuff).
SP Is another one I love. It has a ton of problems and is also a big missed opportunity, but for me there is a lot to love here (I would have replaced this nomination with Octopussy, personally). I love the PTS, everything in Rome, the Spectre meeting (sans car chase which I didn't love), Bond's meeting with White, L'Americain in Tangier, the train fight with Hinx, everything basically with Blofeld in Nowhere, Morocco (except the step brother angle), the torture scene, and Bond's banter with big bad Blofeld in the basement of the blown up building.
So it's Quantum for me. The least Bond-like Bond film, with no real idea of what it's trying to do or where to go, so devoid of inspiration it actually finishes early.
I have to go with SP. It's one thing to be incompetent or a bit naff, but it's another thing entirely to introduce themes and ideas that harm not only the film itself, but also those that preceded it, and also infect those that come after. SP has been disastrous for the franchise as far as I am concerned. And it's not even remotely fun, interesting, or exciting.
Surprised not to see AVTAK in this, as it's commonly included in people's bottom-3.
Die Another Day barely escapes this one. It's wayyy over the top, but it is competent enough in its action sequences and has enough memorable moments to keep it afloat here. The disappointment of Diamonds as a follow up to OHMSS, combined with my opinion that there are very few moments that make it worthwhile, seals the deal here.
NSNA may also be a more appropriate candidate.
QoS may be disliked by a number of people, but it's hardly the worst film. Craig is solid and always watchable. People seem to not like QoS because it didn't stack up to the standard CR set.
SP is more disappointing than bad. DAD is a perennial worst pick, but I find it more entertaining than the two I wrote in, same with DAF and TMWTGG.
I like watching QOS and TMWTGG too. SP has problems, it’s not great, but it’s not terrible.
DAD for me please. An abomination of a film. A real shocker.
YOLT may have gotten my vote as well, for its heinous crimes against the source material.
