Your favourite James Bond movie?

Goldfinger is absolutely amazing.
It has everything:
The fit woman with the awful name- Pussy galore
The evil badass
His sidekick- Oddjob, one of the best "baddies" because of his hat
The nailbiting moment- with the laser towards Bond's crotch
The best bond (as voted for by grcade)- Sean Connery, with his quips and suaveness
A hilarious scene involving a golf game- the best parts being when bond drops a bar of gold bullion onto the green, and when goldfinger gets caught swapping balls ("don't you play a slazenger 7)
A large conspiracy- the final plot
The old q- who's clearly better than the new one
A great car- The Aston martin db5

It also spawned this:

I have seen this film too many times.

Bond \o/

Song makes me just want to whip out my cock and bust a load in someone's face. :wub:

Goldeneye was the best game, but I'll go with from Russia with love for the best film

But why? It seems so dull in comparison to other Bonds.

Admitted it lacks the action of more recent bond films but I really enjoyed the story, thought it offered more suspense than other bond films and also sean Connery is the definitive bond

Clearly Licence to kill 8-)

Quantum of Solace is alright. It's not my favourite one though. I'd say a lot of the older films don't deserve to be as popular as they are too, the Moore ones in particular are pretty awful.

Moore > Brosnan > Dalton > Connery > Craig > Lazenby.

FACT.

Dr. No or Goldeneye.

Connery. :wub:

QoS has one of the best theme songs :fp:

What is the reason for it being bad?

Jack White and Alicia Keys. It's a revolting sound.

Goldfinger by quite some distance for all reasons given above but mainly for

James Bond: "Do you expect me to talk, Goldfinger?"

Auric Goldfinger: "No, Mr. Bond....I expect you to die."

The shitty drumming.

I think it fits the opening credits/soundtrack far better than the others. While the others are mostly good songs they are nearly all pop songs.

At least QoS sounds Bondy.

I think you'll find if nearly all the other bond songs are pop songs then that's what sounds more Bondy.

Who the strawberry float voted for QoS?

To be fair to whoever it was, Quantum of Solace was really really good. Infact, the majority of Bond films have all been great.

To the haters, the reason why I like Roger Moore's Bond is that it portrays him in a completely different fashion to everyone else. He's more out there with the gadgets and the storylines are a bit more mental. I love that.

It's also why I like Adam West's Batman as it's completely different to anyone else who has portrayed Bats.

I remember watching the commentary on the DVD version of Let Live and Die, is that one of the producers felt that Roger Moore being brutal just doesn't work (Roger Moore manhandling a woman, to extract information in one early scene) and that in the later scenes/movies, it was changed to a quippy Bond and a lot of brow-raising.

I have to echo Heaty's sentiments. Roger Moore was the Bond I grow up with and will always have a soft spot for him.

I particular like all 007 actors. On Her Majesty's Secret Service was spoiled by having Kojak as Blofield. The accent doesn't bother me as I can't hear it. Lazenby seems to be too "tall" to be James Bond though, for some reason. It's a bit unfair to dismiss him as he only was Bond one time.

Bronson is an excellent Bond, but most of the scripts he got is absolutely rubbish. Even more than Moore's. I think GoldenEye is the only good Bronson film out of the bunch.

Tim Dalton's films is strawberry floating good, and much more gritty.

For me, Sean Connery is the definite Bond. Most of his films will not be appreciated by the new generation though.

Craig Daniel is a good Bond, but he will be judged on how good the scripts are. Casino Royale was brilliant, QoS is a bit meh.

Quantum of Solace is the worst experience I've ever had at a cinema. The ridiculous shakycam during the opening chase gave me a headache right from the off, and the nonsensical storyline and awful, awful villain and finale meant I came out angry that I'd spent money to watch that gooseberry fool.

In case my point is not clear, QoS is the worst film I've ever seen at the cinema.
