Ello all. I was thinking about James Bond the other day, and I'd be interested to know what all your favourite and least favourite Bond movies are.
My favourite: A View to a Kill
Much maligned, and very unfairly I think. Most of the criticism seems to be about Roger Moore being old. To be honest, I hardly notice his age, and I think the mix of a serious story and his usual humorous performance makes for a winner. Also a terrific score and theme song, great stunts, and a fantastic climax. I love it all over.
Other favourites: Live and Let Die, Goldeneye.
Least favourite: Quantum of Solace
So, I thought Casino Royale was a decent motion picture, but it was a shame they had to call it a James Bond film considering the character wasn't in it. This was just an awful film. Pretty much plotless and him wandering between locations while Carry On-style local-sounding music plays for each one, and then he leaves someone to die in a desert. Or something. To be honest, I only saw it once and that was a while back, but I thought it so pathetically awful that it immediately went straight to the bottom of the list. The song was shite as well.
Other crap: Goldfinger, Diamonds are Forever.
