Damn, i need to refresh my memory. The two Daniel Craig ones i've seen are easily among my favorites. And the Pierce Brosnan films haven't held up well imo.


1 - Goldfinger
2 - From Russia With Love
3 - Casino Royale
4 - Thunderball
5 - Quantum of Solace

Daniel Craig is the best Bond to me, and Timothy Dalton and George Lazenby are underrated Bonds. Dalton's portrayal was ahead of his time and Craig's style took some inspiration from him I think. If you haven't seen The Living Daylights and Licence to Kill, do so. The Living Daylights has one of the best fights in the Bond series imo, and John Barry's score for the film is great too.

Never watched The Living Daylight and haven't seen Licensed to Kill in years(i think i might have it on Blu-Ray though).

You should definitely watch it. One of my favorite fights in the whole series:

Hmm it may, actually. In retrospect, I'd say watch the entire film so you'd have context and lead-up to that sequence.

 

[Oblivious Maximus]

Gotta get in on this Bond action:

1. License to Kill
2. Dr. No
3. Live and Let Die
4. GoldenEye
5. Goldfinger

License to Kill is severely underrated. Its a grittier, more violent, slightly more down to Earth Bond with one of the best villains in Robert Davi. A bad motherfucker if there ever was one.

the greatest and/or dumbest james bond scene of all time:

Bored much? @cig

I couldn't sleep last night so I started it and saved it (great function btw) and just now fleshed it out.

Great list. Especially with the addition of Rasputin the Mad Monk.

Christopher Lee was a difficult one to whittle down, same with Vincent Price.

Mostly on DVD but sometimes a film just should be on blu ray (example: I own Once Upon a Time in the West on blu ray and it looks beautiful) and also some films here are impossible to find on DVD and are only on blu ray.

Most of my DVDs, movies only.
All my series are in my main lounging room and all my blu rays (not too many overall) are shoved in a corner shelf somewhere.
