Your stamp of approval? My, what a show of admiration for GE.
DAD is a movie that I used to really struggle with. Slowly but surely it's risen up my ranking.
Never going to make the top ten, but an entertaining and enjoyable romp for the most part. Middle of the road, top end of the bottom of the ranks...if that makes sense.
Perfectly describes what DAD is to me. As far as the bottom ranks go, DAD is damn good entertainment.

Good to see DAD closer to where I believe it belongs after recent positive remarks on the page. SP is about right (I would have guessed you had it higher) as is TND imho.
Interesting, what made you think I'd have Spectre higher?
My name's Bond. James Bond. - An unexpected honour, Mr Bond. Your reputation precedes you.
(...the Top 5 won't change I think...)
1 On Her Majesty's Secret Service
2 Dr. No
3 Casino Royale
4 Goldfinger
5 You Only Live Twice
Well, I must say, I've had a lovely evening. You? - Well, once again, the pleasure was all yours. You'll understand if I don't call.
(...I most definitely will call...a great bunch of fantastic and enjoyable movies, some could go up 1 or down 1, we'll see...)
6 The Spy Who Loved Me
7 GoldenEye
8 Diamonds Are Forever
9 The Man With The Golden Gun
10 Skyfall
11 The World Is Not Enough
12 Thunderball
13 From Russia With Love
Shaken or stirred? - Do I look like I give a damn?
(...the middle section is definitely hardest to rank and films could go up or down several points, does it matter?...)
14 Tomorrow Never Dies
15 Moonraker
16 Live And Let Die
17 Die Another Day
18 Spectre
Who would pay a million dollars to have me killed? - Jealous husbands, outraged chefs, humiliated tailors. The list is endless.
(...it appears the 80s films do the least for me, maybe coincidence? Maybe not. But I still do like all of them a lot...)
19 The Living Daylights
20 For Your Eyes Only
21 Never Say Never Again
22 Octopussy
23 A View To A Kill
24 Licence To Kill
Q, have I ever let you down? - Frequently.
(...no I wouldn't go that far but there is the one time I was tempted to turn the film off, what a disappointment this was after seeing the other movies....)
25 Quantum Of Solace
I think it's probably more of a case of people being overly negative towards it. You'd think it was the worst film ever from some people on here.
Given it's such a polarizing film however, it would be in EON's best interests not to remind people of it when they release B25. That's why I personally would prefer a reboot and failing that a standalone. Craig himself is a reminder sadly (due to the interconnectivity of his story), but I'll have to live with that.
Overall that’s a really excellent list; if you switch TLD with TSWLM it is super similar to my list. Your picks for 17-24 are perfect.
But I have a perfectly ordinary number 1: OHMSS
(at least perfectly ordinary these days)
@FoxRox I think we all have a Bond guilty pleasure. DAF is mine. It's a bad film that is so bad that I love it.
Yeah! =D>
It's not that I dislike LTK, I enjoyed it and can even say, I loved it quite a bit.
The problem with ranking all films is that some have to be at the bottom. Except QoS I would watch any of the other 24 at any time.
1. Quantum of Solace
2. Casino Royale
3. Dr. No
4. Goldfinger
5. Thunderball
6. On Her Majesty’s Secret Service
7. The Man With The Golden Gun
8. From Russia With Love
9. The Spy Who Loved Me
10. Spectre
11. Diamonds Are Forever
12. Octopussy
13. The Living Daylights
14. You Only Live Twice
15. Skyfall
16. Live And Let Die
17. Tomorrow Never Dies
18. For Your Eyes Only
19. Moonraker
20. Goldeneye
21. A View To A Kill
22. Licence To Kill
23. Die Another Day
24. The World Is Not Enough
That’s how it usually sounds when I show my list!
