    Omg this is gonna be very hard as this is my favorite Bond movie of all time.

    Ok
    1. Bond confronts Renard in the bunker. (Just love the chemistry between Brosnan and Carlye. Great scene between hero and villain)
    2. The Boat Chase. (Probably the best boat chase in cinema history. The score and the stunts were A+)
    3. The touture chocking scene. (One again more great chemistry between 2 great actors. Love the story telling right there and why Elektra did what she did. Add in the Zukosky part and it's a really great scene)

    Honorable mentions
    Bond kills Elektra
    The pipeline chase
    Renard & M scene in the jail cell.
    Sir Roberts death
    Escaping from the Bank
    M tells Bond her history with Elektra & Sir Robert
    Ski chase



    Ughh just so many great scenes in this movie I just can't get enough of it. Best Bond film of all time.

    1. Bond kills Elektra (only up until he shot her - after that it's seems more like a soap opera, along with other parts of this movie)
    2. Pts bank scene
    3. Goodbye Q

    A movie at the bottom of my ranking but these scenes stand out.

    I do notice that much of the things I dislike most about the Brosnan Era, the loud explosive bits (tank chase, parking garage chase, caviar plant battle), are what many others love the most.

    I used to love the loud bits when I was a nipper, but now a-days, I prefer the more quiet, character driven moments, which there is too few of in the Brozz era.

    Well, people are Bond fans for all sorts of reasons! I quite like good action myself as long as there's good character interaction and suspense to go along with it.

    It's a hark back to some of the more OTT moments in the old films...the Lotus chase for example. The level of ridiculousness is stretched too much (Bond destroying city with Tank) but as a 5 year old scenes like that get you hooked! And even now they are still fun to watch

    If my first experience of Bond was FRWL or OHMSS as a 5 year old I doubt I would have been immediately enamoured by our fav secret agent.

    My first experiences were the Connery films as a young lad, and that hooked me (though the two samples you mention I didn't manage to see until my mid-teens).

    Different era...I'm afraid this generation's attention span is shorter than a goldfish's memory. I'm guilty of this too, TB is easily a top 5 if many of its scenes were trimmed down

    I've counted all the other pts's as one scene, but I can agree that this one might be a bit long to count for a scene. After all it was intended that only the Bilbao bank scene would be the pts. But they later added the boat chase for some more action.
    When I think of it, all of the Brosnan pts's are pretty action heavy.

    Huh?!! That's one of the scenes I use to highlight why TWINE is so dreary!

    I honestly like the atmosphere of that sequence and it is an interesting insight into the local industry of a country we all probably know very little about. I agree that the sequnece is dreary but these helicopters are interesting since they are later used as a weapon (I think their use was creative and a good idea). That is why I like their introduction earlier in that film.

    I also think that especially the Brosnan films require some slower paced sequences like this to compensate for all the explosions and action sequences. And I probably think that TWINE delivers that better than the other Brosnan films.

    I don't mind the scene in itself but Bond films are supposed to be about exotic locations. I do not want to visit Azerbaijan, or Turkey, after watching TWINE. I get a different feeling after watching Turkey in FRWL or SF

    I would agree with you. Azerbaijan was in general a dreary location.

    True but I don't think that dreary is always bad. I mean how realistic and how interesting is an international super spy who only operates in exotic holiday locations?

    Bond films should also always catch the atmospere of a certain time. Golden Eye and TWINE really manage to give us an insight into the post cold war era by showing us locations such as Russia and Azerbaijan in the 1990s. I personaly always regret that Bond didn't operate more often behind the iron curtain during the cold war era.

    Well, I must say I do quite like my exotic holiday locations in my Bond flicks! Hee hee hee. But you are quite right about catching the atmosphere of a certain time period. That is important.

    Not realistic but very interesting. It's also not very realistic for an international super spy to use his real name when introducing himself to the enemy.

    I feel Bond should be fantasy based on reality. Your atmosphere comment is true, but I would've also liked some good shots of Azerbaijan.

    I also like the beautifull locations and of course you are right that Bond films do not intend to be realistic. But if Bond e.g. only travels to the Caribean islands it also becomes a little boring over time (at least imo). I very much like the contrast between dark and authentic, even dreary locations on the one and exotic, warm and beautifull regions.
