  • @TheWizardOfIce I wasn't suggesting Jaws was a top 3 fight. That doesn't make it any less iconic. There is more to a good fight scene than justing being intense. For example, all of the Craig fights before Hinx are forgettable because he isn't…

  • @MooseWithFleas We aren't too far off in terms of the content of our opinions here. I agree with you about the Austrian plane chase, it's not an easy sell (I don't buy much of it). The last action set sags beneath the lack of emotional weight and…
  • @MooseWishFleas Even being your favorite, there's something in these categories that allow the different qualities of another film to come forth. Action? I mean, I'm sure you can make a case for Moonraker, but not a very good one. The boat chase,…
  • Two things, one specific to my vote and the other to the topic: 1. Swann had (has?) great potential as a Bond girl and her performance was noteworthy. However, the way her character was written affected the impact of her performance on me. She wa…
  • Haven't bothered to read the thread previous to this page because it seems really toxic. But I'll just say if you are tallying up all the votes in this, that will probably influence the way people vote. This should just be a simple "A vs. B" game wi…

  • Lol... Yeah, that scene never ranked highly for me in OP.
  • I think that the Bond film I have viewed most all-time is The World Is Not Enough. What I found so shocking is that in my most recent viewing, I noticed that after Bond fends off Elektra with his right hand (the one Zukovsky frees), he reaches up wi…

  • The Skyfall teaser is my personal favorite trailer in the whole lot. That being said, each trailer for Spectre upped the ante for our expectations. One thing is certain, trailers are one of the things that have been done brilliantly as of late!

  • Can't believe I'm bogged down in the support of Silva, which is really an innovative and iconic shot down in a single take! Keep on trucking with the down voting for that. Guess it will be some time before I get to vote for Elektra. :-/

  • One of the biggest cultural influences on the Moore era was the free flowing portrayal of casual sex. It's not always a tonal expression that defines the era. This was obviously shifted markedly in the 80s with the outbreak of the AIDS epidemic. The…
