I draw your attention to the fact this list states only 3 'real' bond films are WORSE than For Your Eyes Only and 21, including Never Say Never Again are better.
I'll just leave that there...

A couple of the actors who played Bond started well but they tended to get silly towards the end like the disappearing Aston or base jumping from Eiffel Tower. Craig has yet to follow that pattern though, if this upcoming one is to be his last hopefully it will be a doozy.

If you have a need for a poll, if no one else can help, and if you can find him, maybe you can pay no £s for the services of..... the PollStar.

LALD is damn good - You only live twice is pretty high on my list - mainly for the rooftop fight scene which is awesome.

I'm of the Roger Moore generation so flit between Golden Gun and FYEO as my favourites.
Listening to a podcast with Stephen Merchant (also Moore) recently and he said he grew up thinking the thing women found irresistable was a 50 year old man in a safari suit

I think I'm probably alone in saying I think 'A View to a Kill' is one of my favourites.
But maybe that's because I visited the 'Zorin' mine and rode on the train...

Casino Royale is my favourite film.
Live and Let Die is my favourite of the books I’ve read.

I'm also Roger Moore generation so Live and Let Die is my favourite by some stretch although I do like what they've done with Daniel Craig's ones. I know Bourne upped the bar, but I think Mission Impossible Fallout has just upped it even further, so with that and also the world we live in, its going to be interesting to see what the next 007 movie does. Shame Danny Boyle has walked from it.
Some of the famously bad 007 movies are still entertaining, they're all watchable in their own way, definitely recommend grabbing the boxset and going through them all.

I'm a Sean Connery, Daniel Craig and Pierce Brosnan fan, Roger Moore still makes the films watchable but he's not as close to the books as the first two.
Either way, I'll always make a point of going to cinema to watch the Bond films as they're a great bit of entertainment.

I like Daniel Craig as Bond but Skyfall (the only Craig Bond I’ve watched) is as daft as Fast & Furious 8. I like both movies.

Plot was a bit silly but no sillier than many of the rest of them - plus Scottish scenery and the DB5 made it pretty good IMO!

Skyfall and Spy Who Loved Me are my favouirites. Looking at that list there's still quite a few I haven't watched.
