Well, let's put it this way, at least you should see Bond 25 as an improvement!
Luckily SF can be ignored easily. CR QOS SP is the perfect Craig trilogy.
The problem with this era is that you can't watch SP and ignore SF because it references Silva.
CR-QOS is a fine combo though.
That 2 seconds can be ignored easily.

I've just realised that looking at my latest rankings, I actually seem to prefer the Brosnan era to the Craig era. It's a pretty close call too, two from each era at the bottom, one in the middle, and one near the top.

Tweaked a bit of my rankings having watched many of the Roger Bonds recently. They are so re-watchable I had to up some of them into my top 10.
Thanks. The Roger Moore Bonds are inching their way up.
Parts of it though are REALLY bad. I just can't shake the "going-through-the-motions" feeling that the film often seems to have.
I don't hate or even dislike it - I like other films more
I have heard this complaint very often. But do you for instance think that DAF, TMWTGG or MR were films which the film makers tried to make as good as possible?
Of note: CR for the first time in 10 years has slipped, behind OP and GF, didn't see that coming, but I can't find it more pleasurable than OP or GF now, also SP had an impact on it as it showed me what the Craig era could have been for me.
DN and DAF and QOS are this year's clear winners. Both creeped up my ranking bit by bit during the last two years.
DN finally made it into the Top 10 where it probably will stay somewhere behind CR.
DAF "started" at the bottom, but I discovered over the last years what a highly funny and entertaining film it is.
QOS I had near the bottom for years, but I finally overcame the prejudice's I had against it and see it as the highly entertaining action roller-coaster-ride it is. Had it been more Bondian instead of Bournesque, it could be in my Top 10 easily.
The Mendes films bookend my ranking which is ironic isn't it. But I finally had to admit to myself after SP that SF is the only Bond movie I cannot really enjoy when watching.

Your favorite 3 golden age Bond films are the same as mine, albeit in a different order.
I have CR and GE somewhere at the very top and somewhere at the very bottom, so that isn t unique. Sure there are many examples of something similar.
GE at the top, @Thunderfinger? Glad you finally saw the light. ;)
