    My newly revised ranking. OP goes up slightly and Lazenby’s one and Dalton’s two each go up up two spaces. For the first time ever, OHMSS is in my top five. It feels like it should’ve always been there. What can I say, Connery’s shadow is long. He’s my favorite, after all.

    1. Casino Royale
    2. Thunderball
    3. From Russia With Love
    4. On Her Majesty’s Secret Service
    5. Dr. No
    6. Goldfinger

    I can comfort you with another fact. At the wrap-up of my Bond Film Ranking Tournament thread, TSWLM ended up at a joint 4th place.

    Better now?

    I find TSWLM quite overrated, but it’s still a solid film, and I have it at #15. Second of Roger’s.

    Norwegian online news site Nettavisen has done, not a ranking, but a rating of all the Bond films, and this is how it goes.


    9/10: GF, OHMSS, CR
    8/10: DN, FRWL, TSWLM, SF
    7/10: LALD, MR, NSNA, TLD, GE, SP
    6/10: TB, YOLT, TND, QOS
    5/10: DAF, TMWTGG, FYEO, TWINE
    4/10: CR67, OP, LTK, DAD
    3/10: AVTAK


    Here is a link to it. Some inaccuracies, but several cool photos.

    I suppose LTK is more polarizing, but those who love it really love it.

    Quite a nice list! Curious though - why FYEO dead last? For me the biggest weaknesses include it having one of the worst openers/closers of the series, the awful soundtrack (so many missed score opportunities), and a few annoying characters (most notable the ice skater). Otherwise there’s a lot to love, no?

    I understand that. FYEO does a lot right, and not a lot wrong. But it doesn't hit astronomous heights, nor does it hit hellish lows. It's the least outspoken entry of the franchise.

    I feel FYEO has been overlooked. It probably deserves an appreciation thread ( dont think it has one?) It has a lot of great scenes, and Moore is really good in it!
    Maybe with next year being its 40th anniversary, (God, I feel old!!) it might get a bit more love.
    It certainly doesnt deserve last place, not while DAD exists!!

    Thanks mate. Honestly, I simply never cared for it. I find the characters extremely flat but it’s biggest issue is Conti’s score IMO, which makes the film hard to watch at points. It does have some very good moments throughout it, however.
