TND
No offense, DC007, but if a Moore film is going against any other movie, you probably don't need to vote.
Hey, we all have our favorites. I am biased as all hell with anything Connery, but that's simply natural. Same with Dan. And I like Dan very much on a personal level, for all his beliefs and doings.
I meant in that general area of South East Asia. TND moved from the cold mountains of the Kyber Pass to Germany and then to China, so we get a wider variety than just South East Asia. Now, I did forget about Beirut, so you got me there, but I just meant that TMWTGG didn't move to different regions across the globe as much as TND did.
There, I said it. I have some love for TMWTGG but I nevertheless consider it one of the weakest Bonds. TND is a solid film in my book, flawed in some departments but rather stable in others. Both rank rather low on my lists but it all boils down to simple math:
TND > TMWTGG the way 2/10 > 1/10.
Forgive me.
I'm afraid I'll have to release the Kraken on you...
Oh ho @DC007! The joke my friend, is on you, for @DarthDimi is actually Sinbad! /:)
Again? Oh darn. I went through the same routine when I announced my love for Tanya Roberts in AVTAK...
*runs away scared*
And how, exactly, did you get the Krakken out of my basement?

I agree with it all. The jump from DAD to CR was the single biggest increase in quality in the history of any film series IMO. Going from the worst to the best in just 4 years.
Someone needs to do a GF/CR double bill!!! ;)
Barry's score (into Miami is perfect)
Bassey's theme
Gert Frobe as GF was excellent
Golden girl
Db5
Swiss locale
Bond and the laser (I expect you to die!)
Connery was superb. Laid back, somewhat smug, assuringly confident and eternally suave
Oddjob
Classic pts
Both GF and CR are amazing films both have their strengths and weaknesses but GF wins this one for me but not by much.
