All EON entries since SF was included. I keep a tab and add the latest posts from time to time. The first time I did it I spent a couple hours or more. I prefer updating it a bit frequent so as not having to do that again.

DAD, CR, QOS and Skyfall all have things i am not happy with. I have consider to rank CR 20-21. ''Time'' be also reasen for lower rank of QOS and Skyfall, it take me to long before things contuned. Already get bored by Skyfall after 2 views. QOS have better plot, but i not like the plot of CR and SF and not happy with how Skyfall end.

Upon watching all 23 in my Spring/Summer Bondathon, this is how my ranking stacks up! I re-watched DN last night for fun, and it moved up one spot in the rankings, taking the 14th place and bumping TSWLM down to 15th.
EDIT: Now after watching LALD, I've moved it up 4 spots- I enjoyed it much more this time around!

Some notes about my Bond-a-thon rankings:
-FYEO jumped all the way from 15 to 9! I really enjoy it a lot more than I used to; I even used to have it as low as 18 before!
-My Top 8 stayed the same, but FYEO and FRWL replaced LALD and QoS in my Top 10.
-YOLT dropped all the way from 11 to 16; I wish it was higher, but I just prefer the others. It's still a somewhat underrated Bond film, but simply suffers an unfortunate ranking (and I can't deny, it has its fair share of flaws).
-TND jumped from 21 to 18; I liked it a lot more than I remembered, and DAD took its place as my least favorite Brosnan film (as well as rounding out my bottom 3).
-TB, the first Bond film I ever watched, went from 16 to 12, getting ahead of YOLT in my Connery rankings. I decided to give it the edge due to Connery's far superior performance; otherwise I like the films about the same.
-DAF dropped from 18 to 20, simply because I just feel like TND and OP are better Bond films. Though I like some things in DAF like Mr. Wint and Mr. Kidd, it's simply a very flawed film, with a hard-to-follow plot, so-so Connery performance, and just a general disappointment coming off of OHMSS and the golden age IMO.
-There are several films I feel are nearly tied in quality, such as AVTAK and MR, DAF and OP (mostly for being all over the place), and the five-some of YOLT, TLD, TWINE, QOS, and TB (they all have their good stuff and flaws).
-Finally, there are no Bond films that I really "hate"; I'll watch any one of them and enjoy at least a couple aspects of the film. This marathon rocked, and I'm excited for Bond 24.
Yeah, I slowly feel like I'm solidifying mine. My most recent list is the FIRST one I've ever had where I've felt (somewhat) confident in it. There's a few that are pretty arbitrary but ehh, i did my best.
1. Moonraker-no, that is not a typo lol.
2. For Your Eyes Only-1st Bond movie seen in the theatre.
3. Thunderball-Craig's next one should be on this scope.
4. On Her Majesty's Secret Service-Earworm score, tragic ending, best Blofeld.
5. Goldeneye-Tina outdoes Bassey, Brosnan looks hella young.
6. From Russia With Love-Orient Express fight, nuff said.
7. The Spy Who Loved Me-Moore hits his stride here.
8. Skyfall-A tad overrated, but very solid.
9. Quantum of Solace-A lot underrated, liked rawness of it.
10. Casino Royale (06)-Loved new enemy, or re-intro of old one?
11. The World is Not Enough-One of the best PTS.
12. Tomorrow Never Dies-Horrible theme but like OTT villain.
13. Octopussy-Not great but it does have a fun factor to it.
14. Diamonds are Forever-Love Wint & Kidd, theme song.
15. A View to a Kill-Theme Song & Walken.
16. Goldfinger-Highly overrated.
17. Dr. No-Did what it needed to do.
18. You Only Live Twice-Connery sleepwalking.
19. Live & Let Die-DAF should have been Moore's 1st.
20. The Man With the Golden Gun-Moore looks young lol.
21. License to Kill-At least it reminded me of Crockett & Tubbs.
22. The Living Daylights-Just did not feel Dalton.
23. Die Another Day-I can watch it, but sometimes it makes me want to die-Today.
As a novice to this site, let me know what u think, I can debate Moonraker forever, forever, forevvver lol.

mine has a tendency to change a little here and there.... not so much my top 5, but the others shift around a bit... and i often times hate doing these lists, because then it's like your cementing yourself to feeling a certain way about the films - in reality i like them all.... well...... the majority of them i like lol... but even the Bond films I am not too terribly fond of - I would rather watch them then half the crap that comes out in theaters nowadays........ nothing like a nice quiet night in and popping in a Bond movie on my home theater system :)
