    As 4 of John Glen's movies (not AVTAK) and both movies from Martin Campbell will probably end up in my Top 11 in my current ranking it's an easy call for me to vote for John Glen. Had both of them the same number of movies it would be a tie.
    TLD and OP and GE and CR are all in my Top 5.

    I've just watched OP tonight as part of my out of order countdown to SP. It looks terrific on Blu Ray. My favourite Moore film.

    That's so cool, because I also watched OP earlier this day, it was the last movie in my current Connery/Moore Bondathon.
    And thank God for High Definition. That's the best thing that could have happened to us film fans! :-bd

    It is but let's me honest BD is just another excuse for us to buy the films again and again! From pan and scan VHS to widescreen releases, the first DVD range, the ultimate editions, the Blu Rays...and then those rather eye catching Steelbooks!

    Oh and don't forget LaserDiscs, that actually was my first medium to have the Bonds on in the early nineties. I have all on DVD and Blu-ray of course, I even have them purchased in iTunes for convenient watching on iPad when needed (oh what a beautiful iCould world) :)) :))

    And the Dalton fans whom seem blind to how bad Glen was keep voting for that lark.

    Guys even Dalton didn't like Glen.

    Where is the evidence that Dalton didn't like John Glen?
    Maybe that's not why some of us are voting for him. I like most of the Glen films. Particularly the Dalton ones. Hoping to see the underrated Guy Hamilton do well too.

    BD is awesome, it reveals detail in a way that DVD never can. I think it's no exaggeration to say that it's pretty close to watching 35mm. And the picture remains sharp and detailed even when projected at sizes 100" plus. Project DVD at that size and you get ever diminishing returns. Plus - lossless audio!

    "The underrated Guy Hamilton"? Underrated?

    That has to be the joke of the day :))
