    Updated rankings after my last Bondathon. Fascinating how the list always changes...

    1) From Russia With Love
    2) Casino Royale
    3) Dr. No
    4) Skyfall
    5) On Her Majesty's Secret Service
    6) The Spy Who Loved Me
    7) Goldfinger
    8) For Your Eyes Only
    9) GoldenEye
    10) The Living Daylights
    11) Live And Let Die
    12) Moonraker
    13) Octopussy
    14) You Only Live Twice
    15) Quantum of Solace
    16) Thunderball
    17) A View To A Kill
    18) The World Is Not Enough
    19) Licence To Kill
    20) Diamonds Are Forever
    21) Tomorrow Never Dies
    22) The Man With The Golden Gun
    23) Die Another Day

    This was the first time that I have seen Skyfall since last year in the theater. To my surprise I enjoyed it more this time around. Plot holes aside, it really is a breathtaking piece of cinema. I expect it to move down a bit on subsequent viewings though.

    Dr. No is truly the wildcard of the series for me. Depending on my mood on any given day, it could wind up just about anywhere in the rankings. Needless to say I fell in love with it all over again and it catapulted up the list. Please accept my apologies for calling it overrated in other threads.

    Other than that there were no major changes to report this time around. I think that I need a little break from these films now.

    I feel exactly the same about Dr. No. Never can place it in a definite position in my ranking.

    Recently watched some bonds again, I think Die Another Day, Octopussy and The World is Not Enough and A view to a kill and Moonraker remain bad.

    Same here; sometimes it's my favourite Connery film, other times it's TB... :-?

    It's my favorite Moore era film. I think it's solid all the way through. Gotta love Christopher Walken as Max Zorin. :-o

    Not too bad of a list @hildebrand_rarity. A few unorthodox choices (TWINE being higher than FRWL and GF chief among them) but that's just the way it is.

    I don't know what it is, I just was never too impressed with those two. I always thought TB was head and shoulders above the other Connery films.

    This isn't an objective list- it's how much I enjoy them. I like TSWLM quite a bit, but I *DO* like DAD a bit more. Both Jinx & Triple X suck though...

    Not a fan at all of the Brosnan era. I was hoping to find a list here with the same 20 thru 23.

    The closest I found was:

    4 GE

    21 TND
    22 DAD
    23 TWINE

    Also found another Moonraker at #3, hell yeah:

    I personally found the Brosnan era to be a very mixed bag, much like the Moore era. There's little debate that GoldenEye was the best one Pierce did, but after that IMO, World is Not Enough is really underrated. I did not enjoy Tomorrow Never Dies or Die Another Day very much though.

    The Brosnan era is definately my least favourite. Though, as FoxRox said, GoldenEye was his best and I rather enjoyed TWINE.

    Let's see how they look after Bond 24 is released.
