    Default Best and worst Bond film?

    I just finished watching Octopussy and every time I see it it gets lamer.
    So what is your favorite Bond film and which one do you think is the worst? My favorite is probably Thunderball but I really liked Casino Royale.

    YOU are the first responder. Police, fire and medical are SECOND responders.

    I haven't seen any of the Roger Moore or Sean Connery Bond films since I was in grade school and my grandmother would rent them for me over the weekend from Blockbuster, so I can't honestly list any of those. I will say that either Brosnan's Die Another Day or Craig's Spectre were the worst that I can remember.

    Both had the same problem of trying to mix a more severe and dark Bond with stupid one-liners, unimaginative sex scenes, and cheesy action tropes. Bond as a character works in both Fleming's novels and films as a tortured misanthrope. The pageantry just bores me.

    Moonraker was far-fetched even for Hollywood

    I agree Sean Connery defined the character and was believable as a tough guy, Roger Moore could never convince me that he could be that tough and as he got older it got more pathetic.
