NorwayPosts: 22,334MI6 Agent
I thougth we could post and discuss here what action scenes we think is the best in the individual Bond movies here. I'm not going to make a complete list now, but feel free to post entire lists whenever you want :007)
Now I'll just pick scenes in the Bonds I've watched most recently.
LTK: The underwater-on the water- in the air scene with the waterskiing
CR: The freerunning chase with the crane jumps.
TSWLM: The ski chase ending in the famous jump and the Union Jack parachute.

YOLT - Little Nellie, best use of the Bond theme
OHMSS - where do I start, hmm, the midway, Bond kills the guard by the lift in stunning, Bourne-style seconds

SP - because I have to name one, probably the Rome car chase, oh maybe not, ah I said I wouldn't think on it
