DAD or FRWL...let's see...hmmmm... FRWL!
FRWL beats DAD 25-1
Round 108:
LALD vs DAD
and
TSWLM vs CR
Most beautiful Bond girl versus one of the most beautiful Bond girls... difficult.
Moore not quite as good as he'll eventually be versus Brosnan very good indeed... difficult.
Outrageously silly plot versus outrageously silly plot... difficult.
I guess my gut feeling more than anything else tells me that LALD is where it's at, although having warmed up to the silliness of DAD, I can honestly say that on any other day, this vote might be different.
CR
TSWLM is an outstanding Roger Moore Bond flick, and one we owe a great deal of gratitude (it secured the "survival" of the cinematic Bond in a sense) but then the same goes for CR. Point is, TWSLM is fun-fun-fun, just one happy blast of a Bond film, spectacle guaranteed, awesomeness redefined. But CR, while not as "grand" in scope or "unbelievable! will you look at that!" in ambition, has, since '06, been a darling of mine; not merely one of the best Bonds ever but generally speaking one of the very best movies ever made. Every single detail flawlessly and harmoniously fits the whole. Like a complex mathematical equation leading to that one sought-after solution, like all five thousand parameters of a Bond film configured to stunning perfection, CR has spoken to me in ways that have moved me to tears. I simply cannot fathom choosing any Bond film over CR with, perhaps a few exceptions for purely emotional reasons. Unfortunately, TSWLM, while certainly one of the great epics in the series, cannot compete with CR. TSWLM is warm wood, CR is spotless marble--and I prefer the latter.
CR over TSWLM handily, even though I love both.

Proud to have been the only vote for DAD. As for this round:
DAD over LALD
CR over TSWLM, but painfully close.
CR over TSWLM by a camel's hair
CR, only one or two spots apart in my rankings, but a solid decision regardless.
TSWLM easily. A great example of a classic Bond film, and the one I would use to introduce Moore for sure.
CR over TSWLM. Much closer, both films reside in my top ten (deservedly) only a few spots apart.
CR - Painful decision here. Two of the greats imho, but CR is definitely better.
CR
CR- Very, very close.
CR, Spy is truly an outstanding Bondian experience, yet CR trumps it quite handily.
And
CR, also easy, as I find Spy rather over-rated.
CR Not so easy
LALD
CR
CR.
The first time I've voted for two 21st century Bond films over two 20th century ones. A very rare occurrence for me.
While TSWLM definitely, but not by miles, will have to yield to CR.
CR - I like TSWLM though
CR. Both movies are in my top ten.
