    Ooh this is a tough one. It either has to be:


    DAF, LALD and TMWTGG (Thank you Guy Hamilton, you never should have returned)

    Or...


    TND, TWINE and DAD (Yep, the typical Brosnan era...)
    1. FYEO 2. OHMSS 3. LTK 4. FRWL 5. TLD 6. TSWLM 7. AVTAK 8. GF 9. MR 10. TB 11. OP 12. SF 13. DN 14. SP 15. LALD 16. GE 17. CR 18. YOLT 19. TWINE 20. TMWTGG 21. NTTD 22. TND 23. QOS 24. NSNA 25. DAD 26. DAF 27. CR '67

    DAD - CR - QoS

    Without doubt the two worst Bond film ever made (including CR'67 and NSNA), combined with one (slightly) better which suffers from an ugly lead actress and the Incredible Hulk as James Bond.

    Defintely TND,TWINE,DAD with Wolfcastle's choice a close secound in my book.

    Hmm...probably the early 70s films (DAF, LALD and MWTGG - although LALD was ok). They have some moments but overall just feel a little too comical and cheesey IMO.

    I agree with you. DAF and TMWTGG are both stink and forgettable films. LALD was average but not memorable to me. At least its better than the one before and after it.

  • Someone said LTK and GE. Wtf...? Take your vitamins.
    Well I don't think there has ever been a hatrick. No doubt that Moonraker is the worst but TSWLM and FYEO are fantastic. Octopussy had a good story but a weak theme song and a lot of ridiculous comic reliefs. Moore was way too old but apart from his age I think AVTAK was very good. The music says it all. . . No. I don't think there has ever been three bad Bond movies in a row. But if I have to say three, It would be the last three Brosnan movies, but I can't, as the first half of DAD was great and TWINE was quite good in fact. So I'll have to disappoint you here. I can't give you a hatrick. All this good bad good bad talk makes me wonder if you really love the series or whats wrong...?

    It has to be DAF, LALD, TMWGG.
    Interesting as Guy Hamilton directed Goldfinger & did a great job.
    But he has to take much blame for the lacklustre & camp approach of these 3 films.

    I have to agree with this.
    DAF was the first time I was disappointed in a Bond movie.
    LALD presented Bond as a complete joke, culminating in the ridiculous climatic cartoon battle with Kanaga
    TMWTGG was just flat out boring from first scene to last.
