  • Based on my previous rankings, I vote for Thunderball. This may change later, as I continue my Bondathon, but for now, TB has me for the win. Overall, I can't exactly say why it would beat TSWLM, because if you bring it down to concrete categories, …

  • @Murdock: Oh yes, I did forget about that line! Hahahaha, that worked out pretty well.
  • We know who won this round, no competition at all! Quite a shame, I was hoping it'd be a little closer than that, but nevertheless, I guess it was obvious! Next round: Thunderball vs. The Spy Who Loved Me Time to submerge 007 in his two most w…

  • @Creasy47: The only one of those I could seem to give a fragmented answer on is the question about Vesper's foreknowledge about her death. I've got two possible solutions. The first is that she just had a bad feeling that in some way Quantum was goi…
  • You Only Live Twice I enjoyed this one a little bit more than I usually do, surprisingly. I still find Connery's performance to be really lame though; he certainly wasn't on par with his first four missions as 007, that's for sure. However, I sti…
  • 0BradyM0Bondfanatic7 wrote: But Brosnan didn't even do the voice in Nightfire, correct? He wasn't much of a presence then, but only in likeness. Yeah, the voice was a different guy, but even still, just knowing that I was playing as Pierce…
  • Currently it seems like the big three around here, at least in the supporters department, are From Russia with Love, GoldenEye, and Casino Royale. Runners-up are On Her Majesty's Secret Service and The Spy Who Loved Me.
  • MartinBond wrote: I guess I'll start with all-time favourite "Spy", and do the DAF-DAD double bill tomorrow. ;) Sounds like a plan, Stan! Those three would make for an interesting triple bill perhaps, hahaha.
  • Of course the P99 did make its 007 debut in Tomorrow Never Dies, ultimately replacing the PPK up until 2008 with Quantum of Solace, but it's never out of the question to say that Bond could be versatile with his weapon choice. You have the option to…
  • CrabKey wrote: AVTAK. I re-watched all the Moore films, except Octopussy, to see if I liked Moore any better. I didn't. They are what they are. A few good stunts, but somehow the whole thing reminded me of Moonraker. Barry's instrumental versions …

  • DoubleOhhSeven wrote: @00Beast gets my vote. He always seems to put up an intelligent argument on Brosnan's behalf. Given the recent posts above, I appreciate this remark, thank you!
  • How about Bond uses both, like he did in Tomorrow Never Dies? PPK first half, P99 second half?

  • Baltimore_007 wrote: I didn't mind Gloria Hendry actually, saw the film a few weeks ago, and she actually does not too bad a job- 'Me. Clothes Off.. where ?' etc, too bad she got taken out by one of the scarecrows, but I've seen far worse N…

  • Thunderball Here's where Bond started to get really big! You've got the more lengthy run-time up to 2 hours and 10 minutes, and boy does it need every minute! There's just so much greatness packed into the fourth 007 adventure. SPECTRE's plot alo…
