Those are far more entertaining films....

Besides, the title song to AVTAK was performed by Duran Duran, and it's the best damn James Bond song as far as I'm concerned.

Moonraker - debatable. I personally don't like it when Bond goes sci-fi, it's just a retread of The Spy Who Loved Me, which was much better, except they've exchanged under the sea for outer space. The plot has zero resemblance to Fleming's far superior novel, Michael Lonsdale is 'meh' as the villain. But I see how people could like it

A View to a Kill, just no. The film is dull and plodding, Moore is like a hundred years too old to be Bond and looks it. Christopher Walken is wasted as the villain and Tanya Roberts gets to be #2 on my shitlist for 'Worst Bond girl ever', only losing to Denise Richards because at least she didn't try to pull off being a nuclear expert (why couldn't Alison Doody or Fiona Fullerton have been the main Bond girl? Doody proved she was leading lady material acting alongside Sean and Harrison Ford in Last Crusade, and alongside Pierce in Taffin)

The theme was cool, yeah. But they should have built a better movie around it. I won't give a Bond movie a pass just for having a cool theme. Diamonds are Forever's theme is iconic but the film itself is rather poor
