    Cool, the writer likes the same scene as I do in DAD. Brosnan owns that scene and it's the best scene in the whole movie.

    I can't believe he picked the funhouse duel between Bond and Scaramanga as the best scene in TMWTGG. What a wasted opportunity that scene was, particularly as the film's climax. And "the viewer doesn't really know if Bond will make it out alive or not"? Is that ever really in doubt in a Bond movie? Please!!!

    Thanks for the link. -{

    My thoughts:

    DN - It's a good moment, but I would have chosen Honey coming out of the sea
    FRWL - I would have chosen the train fight hands down
    GF - I think I would have chosen the fort knox raid, with everyone pretending to die
    TB - I would have chosen Angelo's hijack and death
    YOLT - The volcano battle for me
    OHMSS - Bobsled chase for me
    DAF - Agree
    LALD - Disagree. For me, Baron Samedi coming out of the ground
    TMWTGG - I would have chosen Scaramanga's introduction to Bond
    TSWLM - Pyramids sequence for me
    MR - Centrifugal scene for me
    FYEO - I totally disagree. There are many great moments in this film, but this isn't one of them. My favourite is probably bond scaling the cliff
    OP - I think I agree. But I also love bond as a clown disarming the bomb
    AVTAK - Agree, but the mine and city hall fire are close too for me
    TLD - I would have chosen the bond/necros fight on the net hanging from the plane
    LTK - The road chase for me
    GE - It's a great PTS, but I'd probably go with the tank chase
    TND - I'd choose the freefall I think
    TWINE - I'd choose the bit where Valentin frees bond from elektra by shooting - lots of tension
    DAD - Fencing fight for me
    CR - Scene where bond is poisoned IMO, then the torture then
    QOS - That's like, the worst moment of the film! I'd pick the burning building fights

    And just for the heck of it:
    Skyfall -
    The whole scotland climax

    I disagreed with nearly every "Best Moment/s" between Doctor No and For Your Eyes Only. I stopped reading at that point. Some strange choices.

    Some of it seems he's mentioning the worst moments...

    I would have to say the Silvas first scene. That whole scene is brilliant, and kind of unsettling to.
