    1. Goldfinger (The Daddy of PTS's!)
    2. From Russia With Love (Clever and cool)
    3. Thunderball (Great fight. Not so much the jetpack)
    4. The Spy Who Loved Me (Amazing)
    5. Octopussy (exciting and technically superb)
    6. Never Say Never Again (Always loved this sequence)
    7. Moonraker (Amazing stuntwork. Shame about Jaws)
    8. For Your Eyes Only (Good sequence marred by the Blofeld mimic)
    9. Diamonds Are Forever (Good fun if slightly stupid)
    10. A View To A Kill (Not bad except for 'California Girls')
    11. You Only Live Twice (Pretty dull considering what had come before)
    12. Live And Let Die (No Bond and little excitement)
    13. The Man With The Golden Gun (Naff)

    Just curious Leonardpine, TSWLM, the ski stunt IS amazing, but the rest of it is a bore?

    @Mathis1 i agree to a certain extent, but i see the earlier scenes as just a platform for what was one of the best stunts in cinema history.

    I do hate that moment Bond steps out of the cabin "So does England!" and that cheesy bit of music plays over it. It's like something out of a Carry On film.

    I quite like the Ski chase that builds up to the stunt but Bond's choice of colour for his outfit leaves much to be desired....

    1. Thunderball
    Still my favourite PTS fight plus I just love the Jetpack & DB5

    2. Goldfinger
    From silly to absolute cool it has it all

    3. Casino Royale
    Just awesome and I love that it‘s b/w

    4. From Russia With Love
    Can remember seeing it for the first time age 10 an being shocked they killed 007

    I think the choice of colour was down to the fact they wanted to make sure Bond was completely visible going over that cliff!!
    Agree about the cheesy music cue in the cabin. In fact I have a lot of issues with Hamlisch score, the truck breaking down in the desert for one!! Ugh

    @Birdleson how could you already know in 77 that the PTS will be the best part of MR? That's impressive!
