The Man With the Golden Gun, and I don't care what anyone thinks of that.
Live and Let Die.

>He always did have an inflated opinion of himself
Goldeneye
This. The Connery Bonds are perhaps more iconic but they all have weak spots. GoldenEye has the perfect blend of action, comedy, some drama, sex appeal, spy stuff and gadgets that you want in a Bond film.
Peak bond, goldeneye
>Peak bond, goldeneye
Peak Western Culture too
Goldfinger
You posted it bud
Octopussy
Probably FRWL.
Moore's best.
What a silly question. Best Bond is old Bond. In this case it's probably FRWL. Used to be Goldfinger but basically it has to be something from the 60s. The decade of Bond.

>wouldve been the best with connery
Everyone parrots this opinion and its wrong. Lazenby was the best Bond. He brought a crazy girl back to life and made her want 6 children. His entire persona oozes Fleming. Sean Connerry was a fat fricking scotchman who looked 60 years old at the age of 35.
Great ratings, very accurate. I will always be a sucker for Connerys Bond as no one ever quites lived up to the role as much, Timothy Dalton came the closest and definitely my second favorite Bond. Moore had some good films but I just never bought into him as a dangerous man.
Honestly, I think I liked Licence to Kill the best even if it does spurn the normal pattern of Bond plots, with him resigning from HMSS so he can avenge Leiter. Literally just "this time, it's personal" but actually well executed especially with the way Bond uses his counter-intelligence skills against Krest & Sanchez. Were it not for The Living Daylights' villains having such weak motivations, I think Dalton would be my favorite Bond actor over all.
Why do you space your posts out so far?
Lazenby was more convincing as the persona of Sir Hilary Bray than he was as Bond. His voice is too high, too casual. If that's more accurate to the Fleming novels than any other Bond, then I'm glad he only did 1 movie.
>living daylights has weak villains
>hillary bray shit
Holy frick your opinions are straight out of reddit. I can hear your wormy uptalking balding voice straight from the page. Go back to your filipino goblin mail order bride because you will never know what its like to look a virginal Diana Rigg looking beauty with bunny rabbit teeth in the eyes after you've fricked her into an uncontrollably shaking orgasm and she clings to your body for the rest of the night.
>wormy uptalking balding voice
Hey, I sound nothing like George Lazenby!
Based tasteless coomer. OHMSS isn't very good. Rigg is great in it though.
Connery would have phoned in OHMSS so hard
Dr. (ki)No
Tomorrow never dies
Goldeneye
Connery planted the flag
Lazenby was robbed
Moore passes as a gentlemen, but not as an action hero
Dalton's Bond was straight from the novels
Brosnan had a great balance of grit and charm.
Craig had potential, but was bogged down by increasingly bad scripts, which is what happens when the keys of a franchise land in a woman's lap.
Daniela Bianchi was the hottest Bond girl.
Christopher Lee was the best villain.
Moore's run should have ended two films early.
Tomorrow Never Dies is better than people give it credit for.
Goldfinger is overrated.
The absolute worst Bond movie is Never Say Never Again
>Moore's run should have ended two films early.
Frick you, Octopussy is firmly good.
8 pussies are good. James Bond's Flying Circus isn't.
The circus scene is tense and great
Octopussy is Moore's Thunderball.
in what way?
The most cornball entry in their tenure.
Trotting out their archnemesis in their worst try yet with nothing but a nuke (or two) and a prayer.
One or two good action scenes, but mostly overdramatic schlock.
These aren't bad plots, but they're the low points for both cleverness and engagement.
then Octopussy is Moore's Diamond's Are Forever.
I can't tell if you mean that as in you disliked Diamonds, or you really liked Octopussy.
But hey, to each their own.
>Tomorrow Never Dies is better than people give it credit for.
THANK YOU, I think it's Brosnan's second-best film. It's one of those Bond movies where, once you strip away some of the trappings, the plot is surprisingly plausible.
Quantum of Solace is another Bond movie like that, and I like it for the same reason. I've always liked it when Bond villains have surprisingly believable schemes.
Also, Prime Michelle Yeoh can get it.
Octopussy
