Only change is my bottom two swapped places. Last time I watched TWINE, I wanted to pluck my eyes out and rip off my ears.
Then I watched DAD, and it was very daft and at times excruciatingly sloppy and stupid, but it didn’t commit the major sin of boredom (as TWINE does).

YOLT and SF are also near the end of my rankings, I see you're not their biggest fan either...
Cheers mate!
Yeh, after a recent watch of SF, it has dropped even further!! Just not seeing what everybody else is with this film, though I still keep watching it hoping it will click!!
YOLT has long been a low ranker with me, it starts off very well, but the second half is poor, the whole turning Japanese/ wedding/ lead up to the finale is a slog, though the spectacular assault climax is terrific! I don't even like the Little Nellie action sequence, think it could been done better!

Ratings based solely on my personal enjoyment during these latest rewatches.
Rather surprised LTK fell out of the top 3, though there is no shame in losing out to OHMSS and FYEO, and it still remains a firm favourite nonetheless, of course.
OP and MR fell pretty low this time. While I still like them, the latest rewatch for both were less impressive than before. Also, noteworthy is CR67 cracking the top 20.
Not in agreement with FYEO squeezing out LTK ( which is now my number 1 Bond movie!) But at least we share 4 in our top 5!

Lol.
I just looked at your latest ranking. Just wondering, was Dalton your first Bond? For me, Dalton was an outstanding Bond and I agree that both of his films were quite good. LTK, in particular, I regard very highly, although TLD is great too.
No, saw Connery on T.V. first. Goldfinger it was! Moore in cinema first and loved his films, but having read the books, I loved Daltons depiction of Bond, and he has been my number 1 ever since! Disliked the Brosnan Era a lot, and Craig restored my faith in Bond, but I remain forever loyal to Dalton, so much so, that when I read the novels now, it's Tim who I imagine in the text!
Gotcha. Dalton was an excellent Bond, for sure. For me personally, GE was the first Bond film which I ever saw. I think that Brosnan was pretty good overall.
I get into trouble when I have a go at Brossa, who I just never took to as Bond, but I do respect anyone who came into the 007 franchise at that time and for them he's their Bond! But I was never a fan, and all his films will forever remain at the bottom of my list! That's why I think its vital they get the new Bond actor right!
- James Bond performance
- Main Bond girl
- Main villain(s)
- Baddie sidekicks
- Allies, regulars, other Bond girls
- Gunbarrel, title sequence, original music
- Locations, prod.design, d.o.p., atmosphere
- Attire, gadgets, vehicles
- Action, stunts
- Plot, dialogue

It is alright though. Everyone has their views and that. I have stated numerous times that Dr. No is probably my favorite of all Bond films. While beloved, there are not too many others who agree with me there.
Well he did say that he respects those who do like his Bond, and he clearly indicates, given the usage of 'my', this is just his opinion :)
Personally I put SF last, even though it's one of the most popular Bond films ever, and I'm fully aware that that's just my opinion and that what I do not like about it, others may enjoy very much :)
I have no intention of engaging, I find it's less stressful ( Learned that from the wisdom of @Birdleson! 😃)
They stole the idea from John Gardner's Icebreaker.
I certainly agree that The World Is Not Enough is just a terrible movie.
