1 - Dr. No
2 - From Russia With Love
3 - On Her Majesty's Secret Service
4 - Thunderball
5 - Goldfinger
6 - For Your Eyes Only -- (my fan-edit version)
7 - The Living Daylights
8 - Licence to Kill
9 - The Man With the Golden Gun
10 - You Only Live Twice
11 - Diamonds Are Forever
1 - 4 are magnificent achievements in cinema.
5 - 11 are problematic films to me, in which the flaws do not prevent my enjoyment.
6 - 7 - 8 have brilliant scripts that are problematically executed.
Good writing is important to me, especially in a Bond film.

Everything else i either don't have a strong enough opinion about or i haven't watched recently enough to accurately put in the list. However, i do think that LALD, DAF, and OHMSS have a possibility of sneaking into this list if i were to watch them again soon. All the others would pretty much be lumped together in one group, besides DAD which i'm not sure i can ever watch again.

OHMSS is one of those movies that we often talk about with friends. It's a love'n hate movie for many, including me. Whenever I start to watch it I have mixed feelings, quite negative to be honest. After the movie I feel the opposite, I felt entertained and pleased. There's lots of good things in OHMSS, certainly the next Bond I'm gonna re-visit, just a shame there's no blu-ray release yet
I have been lately checking out various Bond movies and today it was time for Thunderball. Here is a film that I used to like, but now that I saw it again it didn't feel great, not even good. I know the pace is a bit slow in some Connery Bond movies, like From Russia With Love, but that was still a superb movie. I also like Dr.No and Goldfinger alot, but TB just fails to me nowadays, it's boring and it felt like endless underwater scenes lacking all the exciment. Divers battle in the end and the boat climax just wasn't what I remembered. It took me 3 times to finish it, since fell asleep at the 1st and 2nd time ). With all due respect, I know many have this movie in their favorites, but sadly it didn't work for me anymore. There must be something wrong with me lol
I Don't Rank The Movies, Basically Because My Order Constantly Changes After Each Viewing. A Movie Might Be High Up In My Pecking Order One Week And Lower Down Another Week. I Put This Down To Comparing The Movies In Great Detail During Each Watch. In Other Words, I Pick Out Different Features Each Time, Thus Making It Impossible To Rank Them Permanently
