This is just a ranking for members to show which particular escapism or fight,battle,members prefer,when 007 was on or in the following modes of transport (there is already a car thread so that's not necessary) :

From a rapidly ageing memory i remember these scenes,see if you can put them in your personal preference order,you can mix them all up,and anything i have missed off just type it in here.

However this is for battles or escapes only,not effect,scenery or dialogue,regardless if Bond was on the vehicles :

TRAIN

Connery:

FRWL - Orient Express and fight with Grant.


Moore

LALD - Fight with Tee-Hee
TSWLM - Fight with Jaws
OP - Fight on Octopussy's train with Gobinda and Mishka.



Brosnan

GE - Escape from 006's ex-Soviet battle train.

Craig

SF - Battle with Patrice on the train
SP - Fight to the death with Hinx

    Favourite to least:

    FRWL (Fight with Grant on Orient Express)
    SF (Chase/fight with Patrice on roof)
    LALD (Fight with Tee Hee) - near tie with Jaws fight, but this was the original.
    TSWLM (Fight with Jaws)
    GE (Escape from Trevelyan's missile train)
    SF (London underground chase- Bond jumps on the back of the subway train)
    OP (Fight with Gobinda and Mishka on roof)

    1. Bond and Grant fight over what wine to have with the cheese enchiladas.
    2. You'd jump off the train too if you had two knife throwers and a big Indian dude chasing you.
    3. Good thing Bond remembered to duck or he would have died...Oh wait.
    4. There's got to be worse things than riding Xenia on a train, I mean, riding on a train with Xenia.
    5. Tee Hee's train fighting skills were nothing to laugh at.

    1. Bond versus Red Grant
    2. Bond versus Patrice on the train (literally)
    3. Bond versus Tee Hee (this is Moore's best and most violent fight)

    In my defense, Tuesdays are usually slow nights for me. Also:

    1. There wasn't anything good on the TV tonight.

    2. Some of this stuff was previously typed in. AutoSaving posts is a neat feature on here.

    The one in SP is way up there, probably only beaten by FRWL.

    That's what I think TF....I still cant believe that this is Craig's Bond being totally out-fought in this scene...its a very clever moment,so nearly on a par with Bond v Grant.
