    Well, thanks for the visit.

    I suppose it's Lazenby that drags it down for me really, and I don't dislike any Bond film, but it's never really clicked with me. Might go up on my next re-watch (hope so, I might even be considered remotely normal then)

    Interesting top 5. TND is classic brosnan. Also nice to see someone have Dr. No in their top 5. be interested to know what put's QoS in your top 5?

    QoS was my first Bond film but I genuinely think it's a riveting, fast-paced revenge film that I feel is a good follow-up to CR. I think the PTS is probably the best sequence in the film but I love the climax at the eco-hotel and Dominic Greene as his own, unique villain who feels uncomfortable in his own part and for me - it works. I also think Olga Kurylenko is a great Bond girl (forget Strawberry Fields). I think had it not been released during a writers' strike and it had more dialogue, it would be well-received by critics and fans alike.

    tbh I think it makes a bit of change to see it lower down the list. at least in recent times. might I suggest watching it at Christmas if you haven't done already.

    I'm personally loving the variety in a lot of these lists.

    Does anyone have the link for the Bond film ranking app where you choose between two films and eventually produces your full ranked list?

    I've never seen it at Christmas so I'll give that a go this year, thanks!

    Part of me wishes I could swap at least one of these out for a more underrated film, but they really are that good in my eyes and deserve their reputation. Maybe in my next Bondathon something will take one of their spots.

    My small nitpicks are that I think they kill off Grant and Le Chiffre a little too early. I would have liked to have seen them killed with 10-15 minutes left.

    I've been able to watch about a dozen films so far this year, so I thought it's time for an update. I take no pleasure in how deliberately provocative they tend to look--it's just how things are!

    1. Spectre
    2. The Living Daylights
    3. Licence to Kill
    4. Octopussy
    5. Live and Let Die
    6. For Your Eyes Only
    7. Quantum of Solace
    8. On Her Majesty's Secret Service
    9. The Man with the Golden Gun
    10. Diamonds Are Forever
    11. Moonraker
    12. A View to a Kill
    13. Dr No
    14. Skyfall
    15. Thunderball
    16. Die Another Day
    17. The World Is Not Enough
    18. From Russia with Love
    19. You Only Live Twice
    20. Tomorrow Never Dies
    21. Goldeneye
    22. Goldfinger
    23. The Spy Who Loved Me
    24. Casino Royale

    Biggest changes for me would be that CR has completed its long journey to the bottom spot (though I don't hate my lowest-ranked movie the way many hate theirs). The later Brosnan movies have jumped quite a bit, particularly TWINE, my previous number 24.

    And my viewing of DAF was so wonderful yesterday that it's cracked the top ten and replaced Dr No as my favorite Connery film.

    Very bold indeed 😲

    The changes in you ranking are interesting. I'm really glad you enjoyed Tomorrow Never Dies more after your most recent re-watch. And FYEO has fallen down a lot!

    Yes, I'd have EYES ONLY much higher, but I suppose some have to be sacrificed.

    10. GoldenEye
    11. Casino Royale
    12. A View to a Kill
    13. Octopussy
    14. The Man with the Golden Gun
    15. The Spy Who Loved Me

    CR67 and NSNA are not included in the game, I'd rank them both between YOLT and DAF.

    Google "sorta app Bond" and you'll find it.

    @ProfJoeButcher thank you!

    I answered these very quickly. Some benefitted from me not having seen them in awhile. SF suffered quite a bit because my estimation of it dipped ever-so-slightly this last viewing. Overall I have no idea how much this will approximate my list I'll publish after my re-viewing.

    edit: Re-taking the test and not worrying at all about my assessment of quality or what my actual "favorites" are and just going purely from the gut of what I'd like to watch *right now* as the prompt says. This should be whacky as Hell.

    edit2: lol wow https://sorta.app/q/1029/drqjbamouckghenlptvwisfx

    this is...uhh..not representative of my overall list. How in the world did TND get so high, I only voted for it once.

    Very interesting list. I have a feeling Quantum is going to jump up my list even more on my next Bondathon.
  • Yeah I really enjoy QoS, it's not even due a re-watch! I think I'm slightly biased as it was my first Bond film, but I find it to be entertaining and fast-paced. What it lacks in dialogue it makes up for in stunts, action and cinematography in my opinion.

    Thank you Professor, most kind of you.

    I had a look at the average rating I give to the +/- 1600 films I have seen. My average film rating average is 5.7 out of 10.

    Even my least liked Bond film scores higher than that with a 6 out of 10. I suppose I'm a lot more forgiving towards Bond films than towards most other films.

    Awesome list GoldenGun.

    Nice to see someone else who has Live and Let Die and You Only Live Twice low!

    I'm the same way with my film ratings. When I rate Bond films, I noticed that I was giving my least favorites 2 stars out of 5. Then I realized I was ranking them the same way I do any other film and quickly changed it. Now my least favorite Bond film is still a 3 after making some adjustments. Even those are still enjoyable.

    Thank you @Zarozzor!

    I suppose that's what fans do, close our eyes (and ears) for the occasional slide whistle or Tarzan yell ;)

    As for LALD, my latest viewing of LALD wasn't great, and even though it has some good moments, as all Bond films have, in the end I just don't really like the 'atmopshere'.

    That's a fully subjective sentiment I know. But no Cold War espionage, no colourful locations, no impressive set designs and a somewhat pale colour palette eventually leave this one at the bottom for me.
