Best Bond Movie?

I loved Moonraker when I was a kid, but it’s.... not good.

I say Casino Royale.

First three--Dr. NO, From Russia with Love, Goldfinger--are the best. One could set any order from these three, it doesn't matter. Best non-Connery maybe Goldfinger. I am scared for the next one. I have not like any of the Craig films.

Goldfinger is my favorite.  But I remember Sean Connery as the lead.

Which one had the chick who could crush dudes with her thighs? I liked that one. A lot of the older ones are too campy for my tastes.

Probably Wall Street. Douglas nailed that role. Honorable mention to The Big Short.

The Big Short is one of my favorite movies. Ryan Gosling and Steve Carell are great together.

This, though I assume it is a typo about Goldfinger being a non-Connery one, especially since you listed it before.

Goldfinger I'd put a notch above Dr No and From Russia With Love.

For non-Connery, I'd probably say The Spy Who Loved Me or Live and Let Die.

Yes I fucked up. It should be Goldeneye with Pierce Brosnan. Even Never Say Never Again was better than most of the recent films. And yes I understand that wasn't an official Bond film.

I haven't seen most of the Bond movies. The first one I saw had Pierce Brosnan (I think it was Goldeneye, but I'm not positive), so he has always been my favorite Bond. I'm aware that is not a particularly popular opinion.

I loved Brosnan as Bond (after Connery and Moore), and he should have gotten after Roger Moore, but he was under contract with Remington Steele (at least I think that was the reason). Timothy Dalton sucked.

The Bond movies that Brosnan was in were average, but he had the great look and feel of a Bond. Daniel Craig is the opposite....doesn't really feel like Bond, at least in the traditional mold, but the movies have been better than Brosnan got for the most part

Watched For Your Eyes Only again earlier.  Carole Bouquet was/is beautiful.  

Every Bond movie is good...

My fav is the George Lazenby one.

"On Her Majesty's Secret Service"

btw - "Spector" was basically a remake of this movie.

Haven't seen any recents so they all seem mostly goofy to me.  But thanks for the Carole.

That's one of my faves just for her alone.  Plus a preview of the next winter olympics.  Leave Bibi out though please.

The one with Meryl Streep and Merle Haggard as Hannah and Gustavson.
