    FRWL over NSNA. Connery s best vs his weakest.

    NSNA over TWINE, the weakest of the bunch.

    FRWL vs. NSNA is one of the absolute no-brainers.

    Still, for the second I choose NSNA, also rather easily.

    Well, @barryt007, who are we not to accept that Bond winning a fight by means of his urine is so much better than that silly Orient Express fight with Grant? And that shot of Bond and Domino on the horse as they plunge into the water is leaps and bounds better than Russia's rip-off of North By Northwest. Not to mention Connery's Oscar-worthy acting when his career was in the sewer versus his rookie performance in '63. Or Legrand's fabulous score versus that tumultuous chaos John Barry dared to deliver...

    Oh gosh ye that fight in Shrublands with the bottle of urine ... and his quip earlier about filling it up from here ... and the motorbike chase with Fatima’s superb maniacal showdown at the end ...

    I’m beginning to think I should have changed my vote now 🤔

    Perfectly possible to go back and edit it. This round has only started, and I won t start counting until a few days have passed.

    TWINE

    Both favourites of mine, NSNA is near the bottom. Easy wins this time around.

    FRWL. Easy.
    TWINE. Not as easy, but still selected by some margin.

    There was a time when I actually rated NSNA, but I rarely watch it these days.

    TMWTGG and FYEO (even though I like QoS a lot - FYEO is one of my favourite Roger films)

    Possibly the easiest round I can recall.

    TMWTGG
    and
    FYEO


    Though QOS is slowly growing on me.

    TMWTGG over NSNA

    FYEO over QOS

    TMWTGG is still the better film despite its obvious flaws. The Barry score alone makes TMWTGG the superior film. Then, of course, there's also the better production design, the iconic villain and the stunt work.

    QOS... This is a tough one, really, because FYEO is one of the better Bond films in my opinion, sitting firmly in the upper half. QOS, however, is still climbing higher on my list. That positive vibe is why I've picked QOS.
