Is it higher/lower than your own ratings?
It is higher. I actually had expected this because I know that many people like this movie but I don't.
What is your favourite category/element/thing in the film?
I like the music...
What surprised you the most, while reading other peoples ratings?
Like @00Beast:The fact that the majority of people really like this movie! For me it's 22/23 (only QOS is worse for me).
Wouldn't want to shake things up, am I right? ;)
When will we be rating the next movie?

1. Direction - 10 (John Glen is superb)

3. Script - 9 (very quote-worthy lines in FYEO)
4. Plot - 10 (easy to follow and highly thrilling)
5. Action - 10

11. Cinematography - 10 (splendid location work here with Italy, Greece, Albania, and Spain)
12. Fleming - N/A

14. Main Titles - 3 (the title song is "meh")
15. Plausibility - 5
16. Pace - 5
17. Editing - 4 (the minus point comes from that horrible fight between Columbo and Kristatos at the end- one minute they're on the staircase and one minute they're on the ground)

Yes Carole Bouquet had some nasal problems that kept her from being able to do underwater scenes so the did exactly what @Birdleson pointed out. That's what I love about movies. If you can't do something, Improvise. ;)
2. Screenplay - 8
3. Script - 8
4. Plot - 9 (Finally, a plot that isn't ridiculous)
5. Action - 7 (Points off for the hockey fight)
6. Main Villain - 6 (Do like the double agent aspect)
7. Main Bond Girl - 9
8. Bond - 8 (Best performance sans Octopussy)
9. Sets - 7
10. Music - 6 (A little too 80s)
11. Cinematography - 5 (The underwater shots not actually being underwater are unforgivable)
12. Fleming - 7 (2nd closest to Fleming for Moore)
13. Supporting Cast - 4 (Bibi and Kreiger kept this from being a 5)
14. Main Titles - 3
15. Plausibility - 5
16. Pace - 4
17. Editing - 3
18. Tilt - 5 (A more realistic film and a welcome breath of fresh air)
