    Moonraker, partly because I've lost the DVD and partly because I don't like it haha

    YOLT would most likely be my number one. There's just something about it that just annoys me. TB and DAF too because I just don't like those two. Although, I haven't seen TB in ages so I'm not sure if I don't like it or forgot how good it was

    Live & Let Die. Lord knows why, but it's never one I turn to when a Bond movie is on the agenda.

    The movies I turn to the least are:

    From Sean Connery:

    Dr. No: Okay movie for starting the film franchise but ultimately not for me.

    From Russia with Love: Hated the theme song (either version lyrics or no lyrics) and I found the movie just boring.

    You Only Live Twice: Not to keen on the whole Japanese theme.

    Diamonds Are Forever: Meh!

    George Lazanby:

    Hmmmmmm, this is a tough one..... ..... OHMSS: Just no!

    Roger Moore:

    The Spy Who Loved Me: Hated the theme song, Jaws is a great henchmen, but not one I go too when wanting to watch James Bond films.

    For Your Eyes Only: In my opinion, Moore should have stopped at Moonraker, not because of my opinion on it, it's one of my favorites, but that was the last time.....aside from Octopussy, that Moore didn't look like one of the Bond girl's grandfather, I have a similar thought on View to a Kill, but I still like that one.

    Timothy Dalton:

    Living Daylights: Of his two, I like this a lot less.

    Pierce Brosnan:

    Tomorrow Never Dies: Not a bad story but I just think this is a bit bland, kind of a shocker coming after one of his best in GoldenEye.

    Daniel Craig:

    Quantum of Solace: Again, on the heels of one of the best, this one falls flat on it's face. I do give it props for having the full gun barrel scene though.

    The Man with the Golden Gun.

    Even Christopher Lee can't save this from being a total bore.

    Brosnan's last three outings, Goldfinger, and Live and Let Die are my least watched. Licence to Kill, The Living Daylights, Thunderball, The Spy Who Loved Me, and A View to a Kill are my most watched.

    Thanks. I forgot to mention "From Russia With Love." in my most watched list. LTK and TLD are definitely at the top of the most watched list as of late.

    Probably LTK though I enjoyed it a lot in the cinema when it came out; it just doesn't seem to distinguish itself as a Bond movie. It's one of those film that would encourage no one to get into Bond if it were the first they ever saw imo, because it just seems some standard B-movie.

    Good thread! I should start keeping a view count tally.

    If I had to guess it would be The World is Not Enough or Die Another Day. I just have a difficult time getting into them. Even Diamonds are Forever, which is my least favorite Bond flick, I tend to watch more for the silly moments like Wint & Kidd and Connery's bit about the rat :))
  • BlackleiterBlackleiter Washington, DCPosts: 5,615MI6 Agent
    It used to be AVTAK, my least favorite Bond film, but I've watched it a couple of times recently to give it another shot, so now my least watched is TMWTGG. AVTAK is still my least favorite, but after recent viewings I like it a teensy bit more. About 100 more viewings and it could possibly move up a spot or two in my rankings. :D

    Actually, I think AVTAK is tied with MR for my least watched at 2X. Funny though, I own the soundtrack. Next least is FYEO at 6X. I DO NOT own THAT soundtrack. X-(
    Dalton & Connery rule. Brozz was cool.

    By the way, did I tell you, I was "Mad"?
  • LazenbyfanLazenbyfan USAPosts: 53MI6 Agent
    The Man with the Golden Gun puts me to sleep just about every time I attempt to watch it.

    So, I guess that's my "least watched Bond" in more ways than one! :))

    I guess mine is QOS, also because it is one of the newest Bond movies. I have watched it twice now. And I can hardly remember what it was about. Somehow I cant seem to remember what happened after the scenes in Haiti.

    Other Bond's I haven't watched much are LTK and DAD. DAD because it is awefull, although I liked the first 1 hour. LTK because I feel like I am watching Miami Vice rip off.

    Good question! I love the Connery films but hate NSNA and DAF. I just feel that whle lazenby was a poor replacement for Connery he was better than the incarnation of Connery that returned. If he couldn't be bothered he shouldn't have come back at all.

    Although I have the dvd of it, I've only ever watched bits of it when they show it on TV. I find most of it so boring. :#

    I think my least watched Bondfilm is YOLT. Probably because that was the last Connery film that i got around to watch and for many years i found it quite a bore. But throughout the years i have warmed to it and it is quite a marvellous movie!

    Mine is going to be Skyfall... I have tried three times now to give it a second chance and I just can't get through it. Even Moonraker and DAD I have seen a half dozen times by now. There is just something to Skyfall that just pushes me right out of the movie and into hyper critic mode where I can't suspend disbelief and just get so flustered I eject... and I want to like it. After CR and Qos, two of my favourites, I just can't understand how Skyfall was such a misfire to me.
