  • The World is not Enough It had been a little while since my last viewing of TWINE, but ironically enough, not much changed in regards to my opinion of it! As far as Brosnan is concerned, he carries the movie with another stellar performance; in f…
  • I forgot to add Tomorrow Never Dies! I had watched it back at the end of May, and forgot to post about it in this thread, so I'll just go ahead and do that now! Being a Brosnan 007 movie, I can hardly find anything bad to say about it; with its slig…
  • Octopussy Seems to be one of my usual fall-back Bond movies when I am not sure of which one to pop in the ol' DVD player, which probably means that it's worth something! OP is really too tempting a Bond movie NOT to watch- Roger's typical perform…
  • Lazenby's seduction speech to Ruby and the other woman at Piz Gloria: "You're a picture, and twice as lovely in the firelight; you may call me, Hilly!" (paraphrase)
  • 1. Gun battle aboard the Liparus 2. 007 eliminates Stromberg 3. Lotus car chase/underwater battle 4. Rooftop rendezvous with Sandor 5. Jaws attacks on the train
  • Though it sounds absurd, I once had an idea a long time ago about several of Bond's key enemies coming back to haunt him after their "clones" had been killed off in the actual movies; I somehow had justified this by saying that each of these villain…
  • Although it seems to vary at times, I would still say License to Kill is the best of the John Glen-directed Bonds! A View to a Kill comes in after that, and then from there For Your Eyes Only, Octopussy, and The Living Daylights, though even TLD ran…
  • I saw it the other night with a few pals and had no expectations going into it, since I didn't quite know what all it would be, but I was very pleased with the movie overall! It was really entertaining!

  • I would have to say Tomorrow Never Dies!

  • @007InVT: That was amazing! Wow, that trailer really made me excited for such a thought! Too bad it's fantasy, because that was epic!

  • I just still don't understand all the love for Connery from a good majority of fans! I mean yes, he was the original, obviously, and did have many great advantages to bring to the table, but in all honesty, what makes him the supposed #1 007? You al…
  • I'm one who actually enjoys TWINE a good bit. It's funny, when I first watched it, I loved it, then later on I grew to hate it, and now I'm back to liking it once again! Most of my temporary hate for it was due to one friend's opinion which sort of …
  • Murdock wrote: Lee Tamahori. (Bad director who almost ruined the franchise, believer of the stupid 007 Code Name farce.) What is the "007 Code Name farce"? Forgive me if it is obvious and something I should already know!
  • George Lazenby in The Man with the Golden Gun- an interesting thought! I'd like to see how George fit up against Christopher Lee's Scaramanga; also, the scene at the ninja school would have even better fisticuff action- Roger's is already great in t…
  • I've heard that in GoldenEye, during the battle between 007 and 006 at the end, there was some extended footage of their fight, such as an elbow throw by 006 that was removed later on for violence cuts. Anybody care to shed some light on this if you…
  • @0Brady: I like your example there about 007 in FRWL over Kerim's death- point taken! The only real instance I can see of when Roger executed such actions over an ally's death would be in OP, when Bond kills Grishka and says, "And that's for 009".
  • saunders wrote: Karl Stromberg in TSWLM? Indeed! After Bond says, "Don't you ever miss the outside world", this is Stromberg's reply. Well done, @saunders!
  • @Soundofthesinners: I'm afraid not! Keep trying though!
  • @0BradyM0Bondfanatic7: I see, I see. You are correct about this! These moments usually do go to waste after only a few minutes, which is sad, considering the fact that they have such potential to move the audience. Although, as Bond is an agent, he …

  • 1. Pierce Brosnan 2. Roger Moore 3. Timothy Dalton 4. Sean Connery 5. Daniel Craig 6. George Lazenby

  • Crease has got it, I highly doubt it is anything else!
  • The Spy Who Loved Me I was interested to find so many connections between OHMSS, the last 007 I watched, and TSWLM, whether intended or not! Things like Bond's evasion of Anya's mention of Tracy's death and the fact that Bond defied orders yet ag…
  • @Perdogg: Not a Brosnan fan, I take it? It's a shock to see GoldenEye down so low! That might just be because it is my favorite Bond movie, hahaha! I'm used to seeing it at #1 for me, or at least top ten from other people's rankings!
