    I think DAF would eclipse even MWTGG as the worst and definitely shade the overbashed MR and even though I'm ambivalent toward OP and AVTAK and TND and TWINE nothing trumps my dislike of DAF until DAD. I'm almost happy to have DAD exist so that I can pinpoint a nadir of the Bond franchise. I remember the arguments before DAD - but it's definitely the most uniformally rallied behind as the bottom of the barrel.

    @DarthDimi you don't like AVTAK? I never would have guessed. ;)

    I know, I amaze even myself, @DaltonCraig007. Must be the steroids. Or the microchips. Or my shares. Or the KGB. Or flooding Sillicon Valley. I'm confused.

    Some people aren't playing it correctly. Dr. No has to be in both lists (which every does correctly), but then FRWL has to show up in either the best or worst list, as it becomes the default alternative option.

    DN>FRWL then:
    Best: DN, ...
    Worst: DN, FRWL, ;;;

    DN<FRWL, then:
    Best: DN, FRWL, ...
    Worst: DN, ...

    For me,
    Best: DN, FRWL, GF, OHMSS, CR
    Worst: DN, YOLT, DAD (Sorry YOLT is just a bore for me)

    I find it hard to choose between many of the films, but it would probably be something like

    Best
    DN, GF, YOLT, LALD, TSWLM, MR

    Worst
    DN, FRWL, LTK

    It’s a very fine line between GF and YOLT for me. I do also love all the Brosnan films but for both nostalgia, sheer fun factor and the Roger effect they don’t quite overtake TSWLM and MR.

    I appreciate my worst list would make me unpopular with a large proportion of Bond fans, but no point me pretending.

    FRWL so low is dedinitely not mainstream. But it is cool to swim against the stream sometimes. Let's say we don't have the exactly same lists...however, the only thing that counts is that we are all Bond fans

    @goldenswissroyale Absolutely! Bond fans unite, it doesn’t stop us having a lot of fun on the community!

    Although I may just have to try dropping subliminal Moonraker cues into our discussions in a subtle but concerted effort to bump up MR one or two places in your film rankings! Just a little SPECTRE-style psychological conditioning for your own good you understand! 😉😂

    @Max_The_Parrot I tried to distract you with my FRWL comment but you spotted my MR ranking... ;)
    It is really possible that MR will win a few places in my ranking one day. There is really much to love in MR. The problem is: I despise the whole stuff in space. The last 40 minutes are very hard to watch for me. I even prefer the tarzan yell compared to the noise of laser pistols.

    MR is no masterpiece but I certainly appreciate it quite a lot. Adam and Barry deserve every bit of credit for that
