    TMWTGG - no contest there
    FYEO - there are a lot of things that i prefer in QOS but overall FYEO is the better film.

    TMWTGG over NSNA

    QOS over FYEO

    Both easy.

    TMWTGG over NSNA easily.

    FYEO barely over QOS. One of the closest match-ups yet; could potentially change given the day.

    TMWTGG. The “battle of titans” banter between Moore and Lee is priceless and (IMO) among the finest moments in the history of the franchise – in an otherwise weak entry.

    FYEO. While QoS is gaining on my Bond list, this is a rare vote for a Roger Moore sweep.

    TMWTGG is a bit better.
    I really like FYEO, and GOD is the editing better, but I still prefer QOS.

    TMWTGG I don't dislike NSNA as many here do but this is easy. John Barry score. Classic MI6 regulars and Moore's best gunbarrel IMHO.

    and

    FYEO While I'm not as in love with FYEO as most are I still it find it vastly superior to the disappointing and dour QOS.

    All right.

    TMWTGG beats NSNA 30-1

    FYEO beats QOS 16-15

    Round 121:

    YOLT vs TSWLM

    and

    YOLT vs GE

    YOLT
    Don't get me wrong, TSWLM is a good and fun actioner of a Bond film, full of incredible sets and lovely locations. But so is YOLT. And when I have to choose between these two, the Japanese setting wins.

    GE
    Handsdown the better film in every department except music and possibly the sets. But even Brosnan's acting in this movie is better than Connery's "I don't want to be here, can't you tell?" acting in YOLT.

    TSWLM
    GE

    YOLT is my least favorite (official) Connery Bond.

    Two of my favorites, Spy is great fun, too.

    YOLT has a lot going for it that makes it enjoyable (one of Barry's very best scores, Ken Adam's most spectacular set) ...but also a few deficits (not least that idiotic becoming-a-Japanese business). Still, my long-standing assessment has been that I rate it 7/10 (that's solid mid-field), while both TSWLM and GE are in my 8/10 category. I leave it at that, but I wonder how I would decide if I had to actually discard the loser(s) from the series. I might keep YOLT after all.

    TSWLM over YOLT
    GE over YOLT

    Both pretty easily. I enjoy YOLT, but it’s not top tier for me while both TSWLM and GE have been in my Top 10 forever.
