    @SharkBait C'mon mate, surely ONE of the films has some glamour about it? ;)

    PTS: CR (only just)
    Title Track: OHMSS
    Title Credits: CR (perhaps the best credits of them all)
    Main Villain: CR (a complete tossup)
    Main Bond Girl: OHMSS
    Overall Plot: OHMSS (Fleming's vivid imagination at its best)
    Dialogue: OHMSS (a real weakness with CR)
    Score: OHMSS (no contest)
    Settings: OHMSS (nothing tops Piz Gloria)
    Action: CR (fairly close call, but the "free running" and the stairwell fight give CR the edge)
    Humor: OHMSS (lots of sly humor versus very little humor at all in CR)
    Cinematography: OHMSS (by a fairly substantial margin)
    Benign Bizarre: OHMSS (Barry's scoring and the psychedelic hypnosis sequences are what this category is all about)
    Suspense: CR (a close one, but I give CR the edge based upon the tension in the card game)
    Minor Characters: CR (a close call, but Gettler is great)
    Glamour: CR
    Ally: OHMSS

    OHMSS: 10
    CR:7

    To be honest most of those categories could off gone either way.

    This is an insane contest. These two are in a locked battle for the third spot in my rankings. The only contest of equal magnitude would be FRWL vs GF.

    As it turns out, that was the first one we evaluated! Sad to say, FRWL won pretty handily, but this one is shaping up to be a great battle. Not sure if it'll surpass the shockingly close DAF vs. QoS, but it's certainly a bigger match.

    On Her Majesty's Secret Service 6

    I love both films, but I have the feeling some categories (cinematography for example) are biased towards the newer ones. In any case, I prefer Casino Royale out of the two by a very small margin.

    14 - 3 in favor of Casino Royale, for me as well.

    Two of the more overrated Bond film, IMHO, but I do tend to rank CR more highly than OHMSS.

    Curious that CR is my #2 and OHMSS my #3. One lacking element which matters much is Bond performance, with Craig winning against Lazenby.

    It's an OHMSS thrashing. It's a perfect Bond film, so these results are of no surprise.

    9-7 in favor of OHMSS. Two of the finest films of their time, IMO. Though OHMSS will always be my favorite film of the series I sometimes think that CR holds more artistic merit and is objectively better, but nevertheless I can't foresee these ever not being my top two.

    Oh, Lord. That will definitely be up soon, but I might want to put in a transition between the current one and that atrocity.
