In terms of entertainment:
GE>Op>>>>>QoS
Goldenpussy
or octoEye
i cant decide!
OP all the way.
Oh dear some posters cant but help have a dig at QoS even though the thread is nothing to do with it.
Apologies. Well OP was mentioned in a previous match-up against Quantum so there is a link - albeit a slim one.
Over all, OP wins this one. Shame about its silly jungle/tennis bits, but they only add up to about a minute in an otherwise superb film.
Octopussy at times displays some outrageous childish humor and it's embarrassing to view sometimes, Moore does play the role with some tangible belief here and there but for the most part it's hard not to look away, saving grace would be a fine PTS, Louis Jourdan did very well and some exciting, if silly, action sequences
Therefore Goldeneye is victorious this time out
It has a Cold War plot, Moore on form, glamour in abundance, and is just fun from beginning to end.
Thanks for the update! Hopefully we can get some more votes in to let GE win this round! Hahaha, unfortunately that doesn't look like it'll happen.
Octopussy kicks butt. Like you I really enjoyed this one. Moore was still on his "game" and the movie scores high marks. I know some folks hated the clown disguise but I did not have a problem with it. The scene in the gorilla suit had me laughing my ass off.
Apologies. Well OP was mentioned in a previous thread against Quantum so there is a link - albeit a slim one.
I really like OP too and its close to my top 5 but I have a soft spot for GE so that wins out. Plus it does contain characters that are (arguably) better than OP.
A View to a Kill vs. Quantum of Solace
Quantum of Solace.
Plus I can't stand Tanya Roberts only time a bond girl screamed to bond 'don't leave me James" and i yelled back "Leave her LEAVE HER"
Quantum of solace
Better Plot
Creepier villain (had Walken played it like he played the villian of The Prophecy he would of won but he was so over the top I just laugh at him Greene has a creepy vibe to him)
Better Bond girl (Oh who am i kidding 22 out of the 23 bond films had beeter girls then A View to A kill heck I can't think of a single girl in that film that is even cute including the extras!)
Song I feel they are tied (I love Duran Duran and Jack White/Alicia Keys most don't like rock with bond I do)
Better Acting (Craig is brilliant in Quantum of Solace)
Better use of the title (Why was the film called A view to a Kill they could of used My enemies Enemy and it would of made much more sense)
Better Music (I loved snow Job but beach boys in a bond film whoever had that idea should of been fired! Plus Night at the Opera is the best song Arnold ever wrote)
Better Director (Marc Forester may have over used the shakey cam but he also gave the film a 60's feel that Glenn couldn't do if he tried)
Better Alies (Rene Mathis and Camille vs annoying people who are thrown into the film)
Better Action The car chase and foot chase are better then ever single action sequence in AVTAK
I could go on and on but why Quantum of Solace wins (it's also my third favourite bond film
1. Casino royale
2. from Russia with Love
3. Quantum of solace
4. The Living Daylights (if it wasn't for the incredibly annoying Joe Don Baker this would of been number 3)
5. Licence to Kill
6. For Your eyes Only
7. Dr. No
8. On her majesties Secret Service.
9. the world Is not enough
10. Live and let Die
