FRWL is a good movie that's slow paced. I don't generally find a slow pace entertaining.
DAD is a deeply flawed movie that is entertaining in a fast-paced, popcorn sort of way. An absurdity can be entertaining.
Citizen Kane is a better movie than all of the Bond films, but I have no desire to sit through it. Hell, I'd be more entertained by The Room.
Thus ends my explanation of my apparently illegitimate opinion.
Thank you.
I'd actually miss those two more than OHMSS and QOS
But is that how your like bond films, silly, fun, and stupid?
Again I respect your opinion, don’t get me wrong, people find it absurd that I Love QOS, but I would like to know what you like so much about DAD
Pretty much, yeah. I do cringe at many parts of DAD; Jinx, Mr Kill, the robo-suit, etc. The film could certainly be better, and is very juvenile, but I generally enjoy over-the-top Bond films more than the serious ones. What I'm looking for in Bond is that kind of unashamed, all-out fun that no other franchise can offer, so I'm disappointed when EON shies away from that to do a more serious movie. That said, CR is my #4.
We used to have a member that rated DAD #1. No one else on the forum agreed with him, they just accepted it.
And where is he now? In a psychiatric ward?
In all seriousness, I can readily understand how someone can rate MR above FRWL (even though FRWL is my #1 Bond film). DAD however? It may take me some time to come to terms with that one.
Chanandler Bong! I wondered what happened to him?
He cures people who dislike DAD
I am sticking to the plan.
(as much as I like and love OHMSS also)
I'm with you mate.
'I'm entitled to my opinion' The last refuge of the scoundrel to be honest.
The premier league has only 20 teams (films) and that takes 38 weeks.
24 would probably stretch to nearer 45 or so.
People's preferences and tastes change over time as well. Heck, 2 of my top 5 were in my bottom 5 when I was younger.
Anywho, to avoid any shock or disbelief in the future... my top 5 are MR, TLD, LALD, CR, FRWL. So don't expect any of them to get beat often when I post!
But OHMSS vs. QoS is tough (for me):
Overall atmosphere: OHMSS
Action sequences: Undecided (both are top notch)
Story: OHMSS
Bond Actor: QoS
Soundtrack: Undecided (to me QoS is Arnold's best)
Bond girl: Undecided (I just love the Camille character but Tracy also ...)
Villain: OHMSS
Best scene: QoS (Tosca)
In the end for me it's Craig vs. Lazenby and Craig wins. In the end this is something I could not really decide upon to be honest
Exactly. OHMSS boasts the greatest soundtrack of the whole series. QoS could make my Top 10 soundtracks though.
Maybe that is because they play against each other twice in the PL. Films, however, only need to play against each other once.
