Probably one of my favorite threads on this forum, almost sad to find it so far burried away! It's always great to look at the ranking of fellow Bond fans! -{
I'm sure my ranking will change again slightly after watching all the Bond movies again... (But hey, nobody's Bond ranking was ever set in stone right?)
Nice I was looking for this thread. I'm hoping to get the Bond 50 set for Christmas and then I'll do my ranking again. A lot of these films I've only seen once.
1: Casino Royale 2: Goldeneye 3: Skyfall 4: Octopussy 5: Goldfinger 6: Tomorrow Never Dies 7: The World Is Not Enough 8: The Living Daylights 9: From Russia With Love 10: The Spy Who Loved Me
Yeah I'm just a new Bond fan since Skyfall came out. I went out and bought my top 9 and then the rest haven't watched them again.

Intresting list. When looking at your overall top 5, most movies you have ranked there are also in my personal top. But Diamonds are Forever as your second favorite Connery movie! Wow, that's very intresting! It's my least favorite Bond movie, so to each their own I guess! Care to explain why you like it even more than for instance FRWL? (Just out of curiousity)

To be honest, I like FRWL, but don't think its absolutely fantastic. Maybe I've just seen Diamonds more.

On Her Majesty's Secret Service seems to be constantly ranked too low! It is by far the best Bond film.

5-Skyfall
Bottom 5:

I find Golden Eye a delightful product of it's time. Izabella Scorupco is one of my favorite Bond girls. Additionally Xenia Onatopp might be the best "bad" Bond girl to date.
I appreciate your props to Timothy Dalton. He is often not given his due credit.
There are a few Dalton fans on AJB ( a few haters too) the
Same for all Bond actors, in fact poor old Pierce is taking a bit
Of a kicking at the moment.
Izabella Scorupco was great had an Ingrid Bergman vibe about her. -{
"I've been informed that there ARE a couple of QAnon supporters who are fairly regular posters in AJB."
Lazenby was brilliant! He is by far the best Bond! I think it is a shame he was never given a real chance to be Bond. His interpretation of Bond was complex and very thoughtful. Additionally he was the first Bond to be really bad ass. Connery's Bond never really seemed like he would get his hands dirty. Lazenby, out of the gate chokes some guys to death in the ocean! You do not see anything that intense from a Bond until CR.

Welcome VM ! I wouldn't say that he's the best. Lazenby is only good in the action scenes, but I do agree I wish he would've continue. Lazenby would have been better than Moore !! And if Connery wanted to get his hands dirty he would ! )

We have almost identical rankings for the Moore films. The only difference is I would switch AVTAK with OP. -{
TSWLM and MR are definitely #1 and #2. I like TMWTGG more than LALD. And FYEO sits in 7th place.
