    SP is also a bit overlooked in terms of its visuals. I think the film oozes atmosphere. More so than its predecessor, at least in my opinion.

    Yes, No Time To Die was full of darkness where (not exaggerating here) I almost couldn't see anything, to be specific, it's too bluish green, the only bright scenes in the film are the Matera and Jamaica scenes maybe Madeleine's house in Norway to some extent), but the rest were colored in bluish and green like Torquoise or teal.

    Take the shoot out in Safin's lair for example, it's too dark where I hardly see anything.

    Predecessor would be Skyfall. I think NTTD will have plenty to choose from in the next round.

    There are so many great shots in SP, but this one (with Newman's instrumental version of Writing's on the Wall) is a small and yet beautiful moment:

    On reflection through the shots nominated, it's actually harder to pick one shot.
    I really like 26 and 41. But I'm going to give my vote too... #13

    Like Skyfall, it's really a hard one. I'm going with #7.

    The best shot in films is not a still, but a shot. And for me those are #3, #12 and especially #14 (which does not come out at its best in this picture), but I am going to settle for #12, Madeleine's entrance and that dress.

    #21 please

    It's such a cool shot and it's one of those iconic moments that's only in Bond

    Am tempted to vote for the lovely Ms Belluci, but I love that scene in # 13 shot, so that's my pick!

    That goes without saying. Alas, asking people to find and submit GIFs would reduce the amount of engagement in the thread. So we make do with stills and assume that people will know the shot once they see the still.

    Lots of great shots, Rome’s EUR quarter architecture in #37 and #31 really stands out.

    Love the shot of Madeleine in the train as well, but I’ll have to go with the elegance of Monica: #22 for me.

    I know where you're coming from, @GoldenGun. I dwelled on that shot more than others 😜
