Sign the petition people lol its for MGM to forward to corporate so we can get the rest of the titles like GoldenEye out on Blu Ray

Goldfinger or Casino Royale would be my choice(s). Too bad Goldeneye hasn't been released yet, I like that one too. Quantum of Solace looks and sounds really good though, especially the opening chase scene.

From Russia with Love would be mine.

Casino Royale followed by Moonraker (yes, Moonraker).

Canada · 06-05-2010, 02:12 AM

Casino Royal has great audio (PCM) and video, for an older Bond I have to go with Goldfinger.

in2video2 · 06-05-2010, 02:15 AM

My favorites so far on Blu-Ray are Thunderball and Casino Royale. But my real favorites yet to be released on Blu are Diamonds Are Forever and The Spy Who Loved Me.

GOLDENEYE!!!

Always has been, and always will be!!!

You should make a poll for this? But only if you can have 23 choices!!!

Let me see if I am able to make a poll.. I would LOVE to have GoldenEye on Blu-Ray that was the one I requested MGM today and I have a petition out there you can view the link on the Bond vs. BLG thread to tell MGM to finish releasing all the rest of the James Bond films..

And if GoldenEye was released on Blu-Ray, it would be my absolute favorite. Because that is THE BEST James Bond movie out there in my opinion with Pierce Bronson.

You took the words RIGHT OUT OF MAY MOUTH .. GoldenEye will always be my favorite James Bond movie!

Same here for Moonraker.

It is the only Bond Blu-ray that I own right now. Though once some of the other prices start to drop, I will start replacing my Bond DVDs.

Nice, I'm sure we aren't alone, many people love it the most!

Goldeneye is actually the only movie that I ever played the game for before seeing the movie for the first time! I bought the game without even knowing anything bout it!!!

Yeah the game was amazing. I remember forcing my parents to buy me the video game after the movie came out. I saw the movie opening night in Market Fair theater in New Jerey rt. 1, November 17th the day which it was released in 1995.

I now have the VHS of it and the DVD. Now I am waiting for the Blu Ray!

bpmford · 06-05-2010, 03:25 AM

Totally! wish I had seen it in theaters, but never got to!

It IS the best Brosnan Bond film... which isn't saying much, since the other 3 weren't that great, lol. Die Another Day ranks at the bottom of the all-time worst, along with Man With the Golden Gun and A View to a Kill.

I will always hold the top spots for Goldfinger, The Living Daylights, On Her Majesty's Secret Service, and From Russia With Love.

BluraySe7en · 06-05-2010, 09:09 AM

I only got FRWL, CR & QOS, might get TB soon but I have all the U.E's and quite frankly some like YOLT, DAF, MR, VTAK certainly don't merit the upgrade I was pained watching these recently I'm a Bond fan since 1977 but as I've grown older some of the entries are just painful to watch.

Goldfinger is grossly overrated I might get Dr No soon but it is OHMSS that I'm most bothered with now and TLD & LTK after that maybe LALD and of course SWLM as it was my first Bond film full stop and that was on the big screen when I was 5 years old.

I was most impressed with the way FRWL looked (Easily Connery's best) and CR and QOS look superb, watching that opening PTS on Quantum was the 1st time I really could follow it and despite my feelings on the film as a whole I think it's one of the series finest PTS's now.

I think me and Bond are just not as tight as we used to be, I'm sorry to say I can't watch some of those earlier entries with rose tinted specs and let them get away with their crimes because of nostalgia, I mean Diamonds as got a killer Barry score but the film is just plain embarrassing now. Have no time for the video game era of Brosnan, Loved Royale and my joint fav with Majesty's and QOS was better than a good percentage of the series despite being a considerable drop on CR.

nolook · 06-05-2010, 11:35 AM

i think all the Brosnan movies are an absolute embarrassment to the whole bond franchise and will never include them in my collection...this also applied to the 2nd half of moonraker too...

raheelahmad · 06-05-2010, 04:03 PM

What was so bad about Pierce?

Leterface · 06-05-2010, 04:51 PM

Goldfinger ofcourse. Its blu-ray disc is among the best PQ wise, its the best Sean Connery Bond film and it ranks as one of the best Bond films ever, and it has the original James Bond actor.
