The artwork and the fight scenes are cleverly done and it set the film up perfectly.
I think The Living Daylights would have to be the worst.

I recently rewatched this film again, and I love the work that Kleinman did.. the stark white background, with black dripping oil, as Bond falls through the frame... and of course the lovely ladies in the oil - the coloring in these shots is simply beautiful...
I certainly hope Daniel is brought back for Skyfall... i do like what MK12 did with the QOS titles, but nobody touches Kleinman's work since Goldeneye - he was the perfect man to take over for Binder..
other opening title favs of mine:
From Russia With Love
Live And Let Die
The Spy Who Loved Me
Octopussy
A View To A Kill
Goldeneye
Die Another Day
Casino Royale
Quantum Of Solace

My other favorites are OHMSS, CR, and LALD.
1. Casino Royale
2. Goldeneye
Always have my eyes glued, mainly because of the amount of poorly hidden women's attractions. But also very figurative and interesting to watch. Yea, definitely the best imo.
Goldfinger the worst.
/:)
The best part about these opening titles is that they're actually in-story, unlike the other 21 films that are all "Oh, stop the story for the credits!". The closest to this is GoldenEye 007/GoldenEye 007: Reloaded (I'm waiting for an even further enhanced version for the eighth gen consoles called GoldenEye 007: Revolutions).
What is that supposed to mean ?
It just.. interesting seeing somebody that enjoy those titles... the editing is.. well poor, and the music isn't so hot. The best part is the spin-wheel full of women, that was a cool element. And I like the idea behind the ladies of the sand. Compared to CR, however, its, in my opinion, trash.
Reading above I'm under the distinct impression there may be one or two who are getting the pre credits sequence and opening credit sequence mixed up with each other
I may have actually chosen that one, if I liked Tina Turner. I'm not a fan of the singer of Goldfinger, either.
YOU DON'T LIKE SHIRLEY BASSEY?! WHAAAAAA?!
Neither do I. I always foung her too... shrill. Diamonds are forever was an amazing Bond song, though.
No. It stems mainly from the fact that I hated the songs to Goldfinger, Diamonds Are Forever and Moonraker. It also doesn't help that I didn't care for those films much.
Casino Royale; so retro, so classic and You Know My Name blaring in the background.
The Spy Who Loved Me; simply classic and like @DaltonCraig007, I love the image of Sir Rog pushing over with female Soviet troops over.
On Her Majesty’s Secret Service; time going backward, clips from the previous movies and with the redoubtable theme from John Barry.
Die Another Day; the movie continues in the opening titles, and I particularly enjoy the images of fire and ice.
On consideration I'll go for
<i>The Spy Who Loved Me<i/>
