    1. pretitles (what a way to start a film. Intense and emotional, especially the segue into Adele's song)
    2. Bond in China (I had goosebumps in the theatre, it was so cool, all the way up to the Severine staredown across skyscrapers- Newman nailed her theme too)
    3. Silva's introduction and monologue (one of the great Bond intros imho. No music, no distractions, just great dialogue).

    I'm up for a rewatch of this film over the next few days and recounting these scenes makes me want to get on with it.

    1. PTS
    2. Title Sequence
    3. The helicopter explosion into Skyfall - I don't know why, but I like the explosion and sound effects.

    I do like this film overall, but I feel like I rewatch the above more often.

    easily one of my favorite Bonds, because of the visuals and locations alone. Deakins is on the top of his game. Skyfall exudes confidence on all levels.

    1. Shanghai (from the Elevator stunt that must have cost a penny but had me sweating in my seat to the fight with Patrice)

    2. Bond and Silva Gun duel

    3. Bond chasing Silva through London


    Honorable mention:
    Skyfall has my favorite Title Sequence, next to Goldeneye

    Well it still underwhelms me a little, and the ecstatic reviews were baffling. To me its Craigs weakest entry, and it only has a few standout moments compared to his other 3, but here goes.

    1) Silvas intro, that whole set-piece up to Bond turning the tables is the highlight of the film.
    2) Word association test
    3) Final scene with new M in THAT office!

    1 PTS
    2 With Severine at the bar in Macau
    3 Bond on the roof at the end of the movie and end credits
  • 1. Silva's introduction
    2. M at the committee, while Bond and Silva race there.
    3. M confronts Silva at his cell.

    1. Museum scene with Q.
    2. Saying Goodbye to your be loved Astin Martin DB5, James..
    (Dam it that it is back in Spectre ~X( )
    3. Trail of light of M and Kincade (aka Hans & Grietje)

    Not realy like rest of PTS and that's why it not in my top3, but like Goldeneye start in that end when Bond walk out of the door. Also i like part that we know there are in Turkey with only showing the flag and there don't say it is Turkey.

    Classic:

    Bond walking way from a ring of fire as he walk a way in ring of light in maintitle of QOS.

    1 Welcome to Scotland - Albert Finney giving the bad guys a true Scottish welcome!
    2 High rise fight with Patrice - brilliantly choreographed and filmed
    3 Meeting Severine, fight with goons - great sequence

    I rate this film way above SPECTRE.

    1. By a country mile, easily the scene where Bond is hunting down Patrice in the skyscraper. With the limited light and the city neon light moving around.

    2. M reading the poem with Bond running through the streets.

    3. The Komodo Dragon fight...yes I absolutely love it.
