YOLT is fun too and I don't think Connery looked bored. I also really like OP but I'm not sure if most others dislike it.
Very good gentlemen, we are many more (enjoying QoS) than meets the eye.
=))
I see a lot of people who dislike Lazenby. I think On her majestys secret service is among the best Bond movies. I also love Connerys Bond, but I think he is generally popular. The first two films by Craig were BRILLIANT, though Skyfall was a disappointment, due to the weakly developed plot. Goldeneye is the best of Brosnan. It had a plot similar to Skyfall, but the villain was more interesting than the infantile Silva.

AVTAK is not my favorite Bond film but it is heads and shoulders above DAD, MR, DAF
I wouldn't go quite as far as to say heads and shoulders, but agreed that AVTAK is far more enjoyable than the three you mention, and the Zorin crew are the biggest reason for me.
I'd vote LTK hands down. OHMSS has respect now, but LTK needs a lot more of it than it gets. QOS as well, the weakest of the three but still better than most give it credit for being.
Also, AVTAK is unfairly bashed. Maybe Roger was a bit long in the tooth, but he still gave a great performance to match Walken's. I lived many years in San Francisco, so I love that a big portion of the movie is set there. AVTAK, has one of the best theme songs as well.
TMWTGG is another that I quite like, but seems to dragged through the coals. That film seems the trippiest to me, with the island, and weird circus connection. It has a darker atmosphere for a Moore film, which I like. Which is why I like FYEO so much. They both seem rooted in the same universe to me.
But I love all Bond films (Brosnan included!) so they're all underrated to me.
AVTAK is a totally decent Bond movie, but Bond was too old at this stage. I think both Moonraker and Diamonds are forever are better, particularly Moonraker, which after all had Jaws in it ;).
alright a Moonraker fan!
And, of course, it has the wonderful Christopher Lee in it, who could likely just be reading a phone book and I'd still find interesting.
I like the movie, but it has moments, like all the Bronsan films, where I found myself thinking that everyone looked like they were trying too hard to be cool. Those moments tended to pull me out of his films; didn't make them unenjoyable, but it did make them harder for me to take seriously (which I personally think is always a weakness in a Bond film).
I also really like TMWTGG, OHMSS and TWINE.
There's also a movie that others love but I hate.
TB - most people consider it great, but I think it's really boring. I feel like this film isn't about Bond, but the water. Back then it might have been interesting, but now - not so much...
Quantum of Solace
The Dalton Era
Octopussy and A View to a Kill
