    I love QOS, but for me the other Craig films are all slightly better.

    That's pretty much where I stand.

    Good call. CR is clearly superior to all though.

    My top 10 after thinking about it for a while:

    1. TMWTGG
    2. OP
    3. FYEO
    4. AVTAK
    5. GE
    6. QOS
    7. CR
    8. TND
    9. TLD
    10. LTK

    Big rise for FYEO and AVTAK after watching them several times recently.

    Right, because everyone must have the same ranking.

    Glad to see Golden Gun be your No. 1. Didn't it fall down for you of late @DaltonCraig007?

    And no Connery in your top ten? Very interesting :)

    Early last year, @royale65, but it went back to #1 fairly quickly. Most likely I wasn't in the mood for it. And as for Connery's, his films are the best in the franchise (especially the DN to TB) but I have a preference for the films from TSWLM-onwards, so my ranking reflects the rewatchability factor I get from the films. If I were to rank the Bond performances, Connery's DN, FRWL and TB would be in my top 5.

    I should consider ranking on rewatchability sometime.

    If I did, no doubt CR would fall dramatically (it's currently #3 or #4 in my rank but I don't watch it often, because truth be told I don't enjoy anything after LeChiffre's death) and TMWTGG would shoot up into the top 10. I always enjoy that film, and have a lot of fun with it. The same goes for MR.

    @BondJasonBond006, I think QoS would rank highly for me in a rewatchability list as well. Whenever I feel like a Bond fix, that's one of the films that comes quickly to mind, as does DAF & MR.

    Rewatchability top five would be-

    FRWL
    DAF
    MR
    FYEO
    SF

    DAF as first? I think it might actually be last for me.

    For me CR is the one i watch the most and OHMSS is the one i watch second most. They are also my #1 and #2. But this dosen't go for all bond films as i tend to watch QoS quite often, and its only my #19.

    Personal List wrt rewatchability:

    01 FYEO (I think all Glen's films are well paced)
    02 TLD
    03 AVTAK
    04 GE
    05 TWINE
    06 OP
    07 SF
    08 YOLT (would be higher if the second act was better)
    09 DAF (would be higher if the climax was better)
    10 FRWL
    11 GF
    12 TMWTGG
    13 LALD
    14 TB
    15 DN
    16 OHMSS
    17 CR
    18 LTK
    19 SP (just because I haven't seen it so often)
    20 MR (All Gilbert's films drag in the middle)
    21 TSPWLM
    22 TND (not bad but I find it boring)
    23 DAD
    24 QoS (Not really enjoyable)

    Pretty decent list. Having just rewatched Thunderball, I don't see how it can rank so highly. I do try to like it (and I am fond of it) but the pacing is even worse than the Hamilton and Mendes films. The three best things are:
    - The humour
    - Score
    - Fiona Volpe

    Thanks! My ranking list seems to alter every time I watch a Bond film, though.
