    Finished my latest Bondathon! I ended up going in the original Fleming novel + short story order, and then figured out the last few for myself once those titles ran out. So it went:

    1. Casino Royale
    2. Live and Let Die
    3. Moonraker
    4. Diamonds Are Forever
    5. From Russia with Love
    6. Dr. No
    7. Goldfinger
    8. A View to a Kill
    9. For Your Eyes Only
    10. Quantum of Solace
    11. Thunderball
    12. The Spy Who Loved Me
    13. On Her Majesty's Secret Service
    14. You Only Live Twice
    15. The Man with the Golden Gun
    16. Octopussy
    17. The Living Daylights
    18. The World Is Not Enough
    19. Spectre
    20. GoldenEye
    21. No Time to Die
    22. Die Another Day
    23. Licence to Kill
    24. Tomorrow Never Dies
    25. Skyfall

    I figured TWINE, SP, and GE were the next closest things, so they came after TLD, and after that I just tried to make it varied by era / actor. I definitely want to do future Bondathons in unorthodox orders like this, because it made the experience extra fresh and fun! For me, the most improved since I last saw it was TND (it seems to just keep getting better and better in my estimation), while TMWTGG in particular was a lot less fun than I had remembered. My ranking definitely changed a lot more than I was expecting, which I'll post in the ranking thread. It was a wonderful marathon!

    I already thought you were also doing a Bondathon, @FoxRox ;)

    Just happens that I also finished mine yesterday. I will post my new rankings too.

    GF, LALD and TSWLM I enjoyed more than ever before, while YOLT, OP and AVTAK enjoyed a bit less.

    Glad to hear GF, LALD, and TSWLM all went so well for you; they've all been favorites for me for a very long time. As for YOLT, OP, and AVTAK, it's funny you mentioned them, because I'm struggling to rank those exact three right now as they're all in a row between the middle and bottom part of my ranking. YOLT I enjoyed less than usual, while OP and AVTAK stayed about the same.

    I must say YOLT was my hardest struggle from all the classic, say pre-1990's, ones. I expected to enjoy it much more, but even the volcano finale didn't impress me as much as it used to.
