  • Connery to Andress in Dr No?
  • Skyfall, completing a month long Bond marathon. As good now as it was when it was released. Mendes and EON are going to have their work cut out just matching it, let alone bettering it for Bond 24.
  • The few probably obvious ones I know: @SirRogerMoore @DavidGArnold @VicArmstrong (unverified but linked from his website) who appears to endorse the similarly unverified: @OfficialDalton1 (who appears to have opened his account yesterday but al…
  • Second attempt: PTS: TND Title Track: TND (although Surrender is even better!) Title Credits: TND Main Villain: TND Main Bond Girl: TND Overall Plot: TND Dialogue: TND Score: TND (don't think Arnold has ever bettered this, although came cl…
  • ..... PC problems will re-type answers later as canot work out how to delete post.
  • Despicable Me 2 but haven't watched it yet as still working my way through the Bond50 boxset which I bought several weeks ago.
  • I picked up the Bond 50 blu-Ray set a few weeks ago and the picture quality is stunning. Am now watching through them all in order for the first time in ages and it's like I'm being re-introduced to them all again. Loving it! The only indirect do…
  • Watched Diamonds Are Forever last night. Picked up the Bond 50 blu-Ray last week and slowly making my way through them in release order. Still can't believe how great the early films look - my jaw hit the floor when I saw the opening 'three blind mi…
  • I love the transition in Live And Let Die, the visuals in Binders titles start with flames that we've just seen during the opening sequence and George Martin's score leads seamlessly into the title track.
  • I'm slowly moving toward the end of Arnold Schwarzeneggers Total Recall. Even in paperback it's a big book but surprisingly readable. Of course it doesn't just cover his film career but his body-building and political career also. In fact his movie …
  • Superb film, only bettered by Empire Strikes Back. I couldn't get enough of this as a kid. As an adult however, I can only watch it as the lead film to the series as both times I've tried to watch episodes 1 through 6 in order I keep coming to a sta…
  • 5. Baron Samedi on the train at the end. 4. Bond unzipping Miss Caruso's dress with his watch 3. Alligator escape 2. Speedboat chase 1. Opening titles design/music
  • Aliens is one of my favourite films full stop. It's the film that got me into the Alien franchise so it tops my list on that alone. Ridley's original is of course the godfather of the series having both style and substance. Alien 3 I have slightl…
  • Lincoln on blu-ray. Well made movie with some great performances - Daniel Day Lewis rightfully being the stand-out performer with an absolutely mesmorising performance. However, almost found the film too talky and at times felt more like a his…
  • In no particular order: E.T. The Great Escape Fellowship Of The Ring Aliens Star Trek II: The Wrath Of Khan

  • I wouldn't mind if Newman returned. I enjoy the soundtrack album and only really had one issue in the film itelf and am not entirely sure if that was a result of how Newman scored the sequence in question - the getting ready for battle scene at Skyf…
  • I've always thought that if Pierce Brosnan's era had continued it would have been cool to bring Zukovsky back and have him effectively retired and living in another continent having totally rebuilt his life leaving all his peers thinking he was dead…

  • New to the forum so go easy on me : ) Saw Man Of Steel on Friday. My main thoughts are that for the first two thirds of its run-time it was a really good sci-fi film, but not necessarily a really good Superman film. The story and tension seemed t…
  • Wasn't as tough selecting this list as I thought it would be. Would say 1-9 more or less fixed as well as 21 & 22. The one's in-between though are how they fall today. If I were to do this again in a few weeks time they could easily change. 1…
  • Hi, I'm new to the forum although not new to the MI6 site being a long time lurker. Have been a Bond film fan for the last 30 years. Enjoy all the films in one way or another although some are definitely better than others. Roger's my favourit…
