What's the best James Bond movie?
-
I just watched You Only Live Twice (once of the connery ones) the other day when I was bored - really enjoyed it. I now have all bar one of the DVDs in the collectable set - I can't seem to find Living Daylights in the shops anywhere. No prizes available for guessing why that's the only one I haven't bought yet. I have to be controversial though and say that one of my absolute favorites is tomorrow never dies - fantastic film. For me, brosnan is the second bond (connery of course being first!). The most recent film (Die Another Day, just released on DVD) is probably best in terms of bang for your bucks, but it has an absolutely awful CG scene in it which ruined the first watch for me. Second time round I expected it so the rest of the film shined much better. It also has the worst bond theme (and cameo) ever - madonna should be ashamed. just my most humble of opinions. -- Simon Steele Programmers Notepad - http://www.pnotepad.org/

I read somewhere that its because the DVD's bonus features include another actor ( Sam Neill??) auditioning for the Bond part that was included without his permission. Timothy Dalton is not exactly Mr Charming, but the movie was kind of interesting. Mainly because you don't really know what Bond is up to... Bijesh --------------------------------------------------

Casino royal is the best "James Bond" movie ever with a great casting : Peter Sellers, Ursula Andress ,David Niven,Woody Allen ,Charles Boyer,John Huston ,Jean-Paul Belmondo Max.

I was looking for Peter Lorre in the credits, then realized that the famous film was a remake of the original "Casino Royale"[^] shown on CBS-TV in 1954. Mr. Lorre (aka Ugarte in Casablanca, "You know Rick, I have many a friend in Casablanca, but somehow, just because you despise me you're the only one I trust.") was a classic in his own right.:-D "Please don't put cigarette butts in the urinal.

Argh! I hope they re-issue it or I'm stuffed - an almost complete collection is useless! Of course the original with Sam Neill (or whoever) would be worth more... *sigh* At least Die Another Day seems to have a reversable cover so that it fits with the collection - I was worried at first that they'd done something stupid. -- Simon Steele Programmers Notepad - http://www.pnotepad.org/

I want to rent a James Bond DVD. I have seen the recent ones and some older ones but I can't remember what the titles were. The life of a James Bond is fascinating to me. A mix of technology, action, and hot women all in wrapped up in a global plot of some sorts:cool::cool::cool: Later,

Has probably a lot to do with the fact that I wanted to be James Bond as a kid. :-D -- Run around in the radiation Run around in the acid rain, On a black, black planet

That's the best one, IMHO. I also enjoyed Moonraker. Roger Moore and the evil guy with the metal teeth made those two movies memorable. Regards, Alvaro

It seems region 2 DVDs of The Living Daylights are going for around 70 UK Pounds on ebay! Unbelievable. -- Simon Steele Programmers Notepad - http://www.pnotepad.org/

I'm partial to the Bond films with Sean Connery but I'm sure you won't be disappointed if you just chose one at random, they're all good.:) Brad Jennings "You're mom is nice.

Especially the ending, but it is very, very funny. Michael 'War is at best barbarism...Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, more vengeance, more desolation. War is hell.' - General William Sherman, 1879
