what a surprise.... :))
At least I'm consistent.
21. AVTAK
20. DAF
I've been getting that a lot on here lately, hahaha.
LTK
QoB
21. Diamonds are Forever
22. A View to a Kill.
21. DAD
22. DAF/TMWTGG (Both terrible entries! Definitely remake material.)
The Man with the Golden Gun
Die Another Day
QoB? would that be Quantum of Bollocks?
Quantum of Bourne I think.
21) TMWTGG
22) DAD
I thought it was Quantum of Bulls@#$.
Quantum of Brilliance
No need to lock this one up yet surely.
Anyway, sad to see so many with Brosnans in the bottom 3. DAD I can understand, but I really don't get the hate that the other films get.
21 DAD
22 AVTAK
Quantum Of Solace
A View to a Kill
Die Another Day
Yep, that's it
I completely agree! Brosnan's first three are simply and undeniably fantastic. I even like Die Another Day, and yes, I did just say that. As you said, I can understand the dislike for DAD, but as far as GE, TND, and TWINE are concerned, it's really unbelievable that anyone can put these down on their bottom three. Action-packed thrill rides? Machine guns blazing? Brosnan in super-cool mode? Epic villains? Kickin' soundtracks? Yes, I thought so. Ridiculous that these three get hated quite often.
Indeed Quantum of Bourne since it was more Bourne than SOlace offered in the last movie. With the editor and stuntcoordinator from the Bourne movies.
It is in fashion to be negative about Brosnan, so I expect him to pop of a lot.
22. The Man With The Golden Gun (if i need to go to sleep, i put on this movie)
23. Die Another Day (just garbage smeared onto film stock)
21st ranked (2nd) - Die Another Day - Over the top story, bad lead Bond girl, rubbish dialogue, no proper stunts, improbable technology. In a word...stupid.
22nd ranked (1st) - Diamonds Are Forever - Hugely entertaining, and some of the best writing I can think of. In a comedy or cartoon. Weak villain especially the third incarnation of Blofeld, a can't be bothered Bond. Connery is having fun, but this is not James Bond. Devoid of any real story, threat or tension. Another Hamilton mess.
Bottom 5:
-Tomorrow Never Dies
-The Man with The Golden Gun
-Quantum of Solace
-Diamonds are Forever
-Die Another Day
21 - Moonraker (James Bond is a spy, and not an astronaut)
22 - Die Another Day (need I say anything?)
20- MR (jaws falling in love, bond in space)
21- AVTAK (old tired looking bond,poor action (imo))
22- DAD (dodgy cgi, dodgy dialouge)
I've already posted my bottom three I know, but here they are with explanations, seeing how that has become the trend lately:
20. You Only Live Twice- Connery is incredibly sleepy and dull, the movie has an extremely slow pace, almost like trying to step through quicksand, the soundtrack can get on my nerves at times, and the villains are terrible, with the possible exception of Pleasance's Blofeld, maybe. Also, and this will probably raise lots of questions and flak, but I don't care too much for the Japanese locations.
21. Goldfinger- Much like YOLT, this one moves at a horribly boring pace with very little action to keep anyone entertained. Also, and I mean no disrespect to Barry, but I really don't like this soundtrack.
22. On Her Majesty's Secret Service- Much like the last two, OHMSS cannot keep me engaged because of its absolutely pathetic pace, which moves like a 90 year old man on crutches. To go along with it, you've got the very inexperienced and weak Lazenby who fails to impress in any of his scenes except maybe his last. Then there's the soundtrack, which I know people on here love, but I for one think it can really get annoying.
21- MR. It's really only here because of one reason, they ruined the Jaws character. Other than that I enjoy it, and I can even get past the space stuff.
22- DAD. Brosnan is great as usual (in fact this is probably his best performance), Pike is great, alot of the film is great. But once Bond reaches Iceland it all starts to fall apart and it becomes a mess full of bad CGI, bad dialouge and bad action (apart from the car chase).
23- Quantum Of Solace. CR managed to pull off the gritty, realistic feel while still feeling like a Bond film, sort of like the Dalton films (but not as good, haha). Anyway, CR was good because it did that. QOS, does not do that. It doesn't feel like a Bond film. CR's ending lets you believe that Bond had becomme Bond, here we are in QOS and he's still rookie Bond. It's not terrible, not really bad, alot of it is good, but the bad story, bad action and other weak points let it down.
(Living Royale seems to have seen an additional release in the Official series none of us have yet to see ?)
# 20 A View to a Kill
#21 Quantum of Solace
