    So, I've watched SF at your bequest. From now until October 2015, I would like you, my dear brothers and sisters of Bondom, to pick a film for me. So, which Bond film should I watch?

    Today? Pretty good - sun is shining, my leg is not giving me too much pain, and I just had a pretty good chat with my physio.

    As I watched Skyfall last, I would rather not watch another Craig film. So, thats 20 films for you to choose from ;-)

    If you're feeling sunny and light-hearted, I'd shoot for a Moore film. Maybe Octopussy or The Spy Who Loved Me?

    Just what I was thinking. Sounds like a plan, old boy :-)

    Of those two, I would go with TSWLM.

    Alright, so the last time I did a Bondathon, I went from GF to DAD, because I had watch DN, FRWL, and the Craig films a lot at the time. Now, though, time has passed, so things have flipped around. I'm really in the mood for GE and TWINE, but at the same time, a Craig trilogy marathon does sound good. Recommendations? Do I go with Brosnan's two, even though I saw them both recently, or Craig's three?

    Also, I'm sure only a few people really read all of it, but this time around, I may end up doing the same thing I did with some of the films during my last Bondathon, and make a huge list from start to finish on all of the little and big things that I like throughout the film.

    I quite enjoyed reading those.

    I liked reading those too, Creasy, so if you did them again I'd enjoy it as well.

    As for whether to go Brosnan or Craig, I'm not sure. I know I need to revisit the former's era soon, as well as some of the Moore films again since I never watch those. I may even have to watch....Diamonds....Are....Forever. :-SS

    Thank you both. It's been a while, so I think I'll just go with CR-SF and do exactly what I did last time.

    Still have a movie to finish, so I think I'll start this marathon when I wake up again.

    Looking forward to read Your "Live-reports" from the Craig era, Creasy!

    @jobo, thank you! I finished a movie I was watching before the marathon last night, but it was too late so I pushed the marathon back to today. I'm going to play a game for a bit and then do my 'live report,' so to speak. :)

    Finally found this thread!

    My mom wants to watch a Bond movie with me tonight. Either a Moore or Brosnan outing she said. Can you guys suggest one please? :)

    OP if it's Moore or GE if it's Brosnan but you won't go wrong with TLD with Tim.

    Thanks @Mrcoggins, I'll pick GE. :-bd
  • GoldenEye is always a solid choice, yes.

    It's been a while since I've watched a Bond. My last two were Thunderball and OHMSS, respectively, and I'll be starting the grand pre-Spectre (is that supposed to be capitalized or not?) Bondathon in June with Dr. No. No other preferences, so pick away, ladies and gents!

    Wasn't a fan of the films being butchered to death on ITV? However, recently my eldest has watched the 3 Roger Moore films from FYEO, OP, and AVTAK. Later we are watching TLD, so I think if they are on in the daytime from DN all the way to LTK?

    I think when introducing kids if interested in Bond? This is possibly the best way to go?
  • bondjamesbondjames You were expecting someone else?

    ...for me to watch. I'm too lazy to think of one right now.

    Plus I'm curious as to what people will say.
    @The_Reaper, what about picking your absolute worst Bond film of all time and trying to see it in a new positive light? I might try that with TWINE one day (it will be an ordeal, I can assure you).

    Lots of good suggestions here.

    I've watched FRWL, GE, TSWLM, NSNA, SP, TWINE, OP, and most recently YOLT. I am thinking of watching another one tonight but I'm unsure as to which one I should go with next in my Bondathon. I'm honestly leaning towards MR or AVTAK. MR mostly for it's big budget spectacle and Gilbert's direction and AVTAK just because it's been some time since I've seen it, although it doesn't have to be either of them.

    I'd recommend MR. It's always been a favorite of mine, and it's worth watching just to hear "Flight Into Space".
