    GE has a special place in my heart for me, in anticipation of the series continuing after LTK and it was the fulfillment of so many Fleming elements (such as racing with a girl, mention of Bond's parents, the sardonic and saturnine emoting, etc.) and misc. spy lore (black combat outfit, cold war, etc.) that have been percolating in my mind during the hiatus when I took in other spy novels and TV shows while waiting for Bond to return.

    I feel the same way.

    Which other Bond films are you "torn between" as to which you like best?

    For me it's:

    Brosnan: GE & TND

    Dalton: TLD & LTK

    Connery: Goldfinger & Dr. No

    Moore: LALD & TMWTGG (Neither is my favorite RM film)
    My current 10 favorite:

    1. GE 2. MR 3. OP 4. TMWTGG 5. TSWLM 6. TND 7. TWINE 8.DN 9. GF 10. AVTAK

    As you know from our exchange on another thread, I'm not a fan of TND, but I wanted to play anyway!

    Craig: CR & SF (I assume no one has included him on the list because, well, it's sort of a no brainer, I think.

    Brosnan: GE really stands alone, though I put TWINE in second place.

    Dalton: TLD & LTK

    Moore: LALD & FYEO

    Lazenby: OHMSS & Every interview he's done since where all he talks about is how much action he got. :D

    Connery: DN & GF

    Brosnan: GE and TND... probably leaning toward GE. That film has a special place for me... one of the first bonds I got to see in theatre and of course, that N64 game.

    Dalton: only two but they are very close. I'd go TLD just because that is still my favourite Bond film.

    Moore: TMWTGG or Live and Let Die... this is actually hard since I really like most of his movies. And recently rewatching LALD.. well it was really fun.

    Connery: no real split since Thunderball runs away with it, but for second it's Goldfinger and From Russia with Love.

    Craig: CR and QoS... they are just so close and both right in that top 5 all time range that they probably trade it often. Probably one of the few where Skyfall isn't even in the discussion.
