How about this for a ‘ranking’ topic?
Give each of the following 10 categories a mark out of 10 for each bond film:

PTS (For DN which doesn’t have one, just rate the first few scenes)
Plot (Storyline/Villain’s plan etc)
Action (Fights, chases, explosions etc)
Villains (Main villains and henchmen)
Girls (Not including Xenia/Elektra etc, as they go under the villains category)
Dialogue (The script)
Locations (Self-explanatory)
Gadgets/Vehicles (Q-Branch, cars etc)
Music (Themesong, score)
Bond Himself (Bond’s portrayal in said film)

And then add up the total, which will be a percentage out 100.
Then place the films in order from highest percentage to lowest.
Maybe these rankings will differ from our actual lists of preference? Let’s see!
Try not to be influenced by your already existing list – part of the excitement is to see how close to your list this one will turn out!

So, I’ll start us off:
