    That shot sums up everything I love about Bond. One man alone in the shadows against the enemy.
    I wish that would have been the first shot of Pierce's Bond, because its perfect

    Seems like a pretty easy win for GE. I'll be wrapping this up tomorrow at midnight CET.

    I would've gone with TND because of the composition, it's just a great shot. Really gives you the vibe there's something shady going on at CMGN. Who's the man behind the newspaper, Elliot? However, any GE pose with Brosnan and the silenced PPK (or even PP7) is pretty much more iconic than anything else in his era. MI6 castle, it be a fine shot (laddie) that could've looked just a (wee) bit better with less contrast. Just to show a little more brickwork and other detail. I think I nominated that shot, or maybe just commented on it.

    Brosnan with style, Craig in one of the most emotional moments or a really nice shot because of the composition.
    I have to vote for CR, it's my favourite emotional Bond moment. However, I think there would be slighty better frames of it, since the camera is moving away there more and more. Honestly, the frame that sticks in mind most for me, is the close-up of the broken wine glass when Bond enters the room right before he finds Vesper in the shower.

    I would have went with CR too, thats a great scene,
    but I love that shot in QoS, one of my favourite scenes in the movie, (and the gunfight after is pretty cool too!)

    Absolutely CR. That shot made my wife a Daniel Craig fan.

    All great ones as usual of course, but that shot from Pierce at his desk oozes Bond for me.

    So I'm voting for DAD myself.

    Current tally:

    DAD - 2
    CR - 2
    QOS - 1

    The shot in QoS is certainly the best in terms of composition and style, but I'll have to go with CR as the shot carries so much emotion.

    I'm going to go with the opposite of the majority so far.
    Whilst the scene and shot from CR is bloody good, there's no disputing that, I think the shot from QOS just pips it too the post for the win. It's one of my favourite shots from QOS and screams Bond!

    It must be said, QOS is full of phenomenal shots. I'd definitely recommend looking back at the individual film's page in this thread.

    It is indeed a great shot. Unfortunately, we don't have time to enjoy it in the scene. Does it last for a whole second? I'm not so sure...
    I tried to do this shot by myself when I was in Bregenz.
