    I'm seeing this thing through to the end! :-D

    I wouldn't have it any other way old boy. Though the Climax presentation of Casino Royale, is a bit of a niche thing. Hopefully other members will watch it - it's only an hour long after all.

    *By the way @DarthDimi, this is the first time that I've gotten the chance to say congratulations on your nuptials. I wish you and Mrs. Dimi all the love in the world.

    My sentiments towards some entries have changed a bit during the last few months, but it remains fun to see where they all end up :)

    I constantly surprise myself with where certain films end up on the list. It's this particular "rating format" that makes it interesting to see which film goes above or below which other film.

    And thank you for not bashing the ranking categories, as so many people do. It's an interesting thought experiment.

    I'll leave this one open for a few more days, just in case.

    Never Say Never Again, 1983

    /10
    1. Direction – 4 (I'll be kind to Kersh... but he must have known this was a mess.)
    2. Screenplay – 5
    3. Script – 5
    4. Plot – 7
    5. Action – 3 (How can it be so poor? Not a single fight in this film can compete with even the trashiest action flics of the early 1980s. I've seen better action in ultra-cheap Al Adamson films from a decade before.)
    6. Main Villain – 8 (I'll go with Brandauer. He is good.)
    7. Main Bond Girl – 7 (One reason only: Kim was hot. She was no Claudine though.)
    8. Bond – 8 (Connery was fun. Yeah, sure.)
    9. Sets – 1 (I got nothing. Not an ounce of warmth, beauty, glamour, ... nothing! Nothing cool, exciting, sinister, mysterious, ... nothing! And that old temple or whatever? Crap.)
    10. Music – 1 (Sorry Mr. Legrand, you took the time-train back to uninteresting '60s television scoring.)
    11. Cinematography - 5 (I like... some shots. I dunno. It's not the cinematographer's fault, I guess, that the film looks like one of those birthday videos from 30 years ago you dig up, all washed and worn out, ugly...)
    12. Fleming – 2 (You're nothing compared to Fleming, McClory!)

    /5
    13. Supporting Cast – 4 (Carrera, Atkinson...?? I'm feeling generous.)
    14. Main Titles – 1 (Come the bleep on! Can main titles be any less colourful, exciting, appealing, ...?)
    15. Plausibility - 2 (Mèh.)
    16. Pace - 4 (Whatever.)
    17. Editing - 3
    18. Tilt – 1 (And people call SP a bad film??? Have they ever watched this big lump of dog poop?)

    It seems that we have a perennial top three, consisting of From Russia With Love, On Her Majesty's Secret Service and Casino Royale.

    So that is it. Our final Bond film done and dusted. All 27 pictures dissected with clinical precision and objectivity. I hope. Any surprises with our list? Thoughts and comments are most welcome.

    It's a fine top ten. With all the cultural touchstones and better movies represented, to be sure.

    And this is the last time I'll be running this game, in this format. I first came up with the idea for such a ranking and rating way of sorting out each of the various Bond categories, shortly after my stroke. I think it's time for a refresh and a rethink.

    All that is left to be said, is a massive thank you to all the participants.

    I hope you enjoyed the show. Goodnight.

    Thank you for running this great tournament, @royale65 ! Always a pleasure to see how the community's tastes change or stay the same.

    My tastes are not too wild, and I lean towards films with quality storylines, so I'm not shocked to see that more than half my rankings are only within 2 places of the community rankings, especially for the bottom half. My biggest differences are ranking Skyfall 8 positions higher, Spectre 5 positions higher, and TSWLM 5 positions lower than the community. And I placed FRWL, LALD, MR, OP, and TND in identical places.

    Thank you once again, @royale65! I've had a blast with this one. My own rankings always surprise me. ;-) Let's see where NTTD finishes...
  • Thank you @royale65, this was a really interesting way to rank and think about these movies. Lots of fun to see what others think as well.
