    I ranked them all - over a couple of weeks - recently on the Last Bond Movie You Watched thread - what I think of the films is broadly unchanged, if some of the comparative points have been re-thought, so the details are over there. Since then I have seen Dr No - Thunderball again, as well as Skyfall twice and The Living Daylights. My revised list (I wasn't going to rank Skyfall this early, but I know for certain where it goes for me - though that is not to say that won't change over time) is below. I will review Skyfall on the Last Bond Movie You watched thread when the Blu Ray comes out - as I prefer it to match the retrospective approach I took with the the others. The big winners are Dr No overtaking Goldfinger; Thunderball, which improves each time I see it, and Licence To Kill which, although I didn't rewatch since last month, I just can't get it or Dalton out of my head. It is just sad I can't quite see it with The Living Daylights; which I still find overrated. Big losers are Goldeneye and TWINE - Skyfall and LTK are just killing my affection for Brosnan, even though I stand by most of the positive things I said about him. It is clear to me that whilst I like the 'formula' it does tend to be the atypical ones that stand out for me. I see this more as a slight rethink of the original list, rather than a do-over: as I'd need to watch them all again, and be fairer to poor Roger - whose films were starting to seriously pain me by the end of their run. The top-5 is on a higher plane for me than 6 and below (or maybe the top-6, I adored Dr No last couple of times).

    1. Casino Royale (2006)
    2. On Her Majesty’s Secret Service
    3. From Russia With Love
    4=. Skyfall
    4=. Licence To Kill
    6. Dr No
    7. Goldfinger
    8. Thunderball
    9. The World Is Not Enough
    10. Goldeneye
    11. Live And Let Die
    12. The Living Daylights
    13. Tomorrow Never Dies
    14. Quantum Of Solace
    15. For Your Eyes Only
    16. You Only Live Twice
    17. The Spy Who Loved Me

    Interesting to see Skyfall rank so high....I am not going to consider adding Skyfall to my rankings until the DVD comes out, just out of fairness and so I can properly assess it. It's easy to be swept up in the whole "new Bond" craze...I remember coming out of DAD saying it was the best Bond ever :-O

    But it excites me to see SF rank high upon initial viewings

    I wasn't sure if I wanted it in my top 5 or not but in the end I decided it deserved it.

    Actually, one of our moderators here ranks LTK as the worst.

    By the way, any misuse of the flagging system will result in a warning.

    I let you in on a few things:

    - I think that GF is the most overrated Bondmovie ever, without it being horrible though.

    - Opinions are a beautiful thing.

    - I also like LTK, but I don't expect everyone to rate it as high as I do.

    I hope you don't destroy our beautiful website now.
