Live and Let Die hasn't come up yet has it?

I have never been a fan of anything by Duran Duran, but I did like their Bond theme. (It certainly does look like "Goldfinger" is going to be #1. But I really like Shirley Bassey's "Moonraker" theme even more.)

Some great picks there! Glad "You Know My Name" did so well; I knew #1 was out of the question, but I'm glad people respect it.

A solid performance from OHMSS; I know that as the years go on it gets more respect, but it certainly still is "divisive."

The Sovereign · 12-18-2017, 04:19 PM

Wow, major props to OHMSS! I've always enjoyed it (#12 on my list), but clearly not as much as many of you. And a little surprised that TSWLM landed @ #7. As Moore's best film, I thought it would rank slightly better than that. Oh well...

AKORIS · 12-18-2017, 04:22 PM

great stuff the last few posts!! Makes me want to watch the entire series again!!

imsounoriginal · 12-18-2017, 04:23 PM

Surprisingly VERY solid list of the movies. I don't agree with all of it but it's pretty definitive as far as capturing general audiences and hardcore fan sentiments, from what I can tell.

I was also surprised that the list has turned out this way. Sometimes on these polls, you never know what you are going to get and that's the fun in it. Most picks got a good shot with #1 rankings, but enough people voted for it to make sense for most fans IMO.

glad to see Christopher Lee up there in the top 5.... he was a great, classy villain and one of the biggest reasons that The Man With The Golden Gun is far better than many people/critics suggest....

hmmmmm... Sean Bean all the way to #2??? not seeing that one....especially with the far more memorable villain Xenia Onatopp knocked all the way down to a runner up...

Auric Goldfinger?.... yes... that's #1 for sure

The Sovereign · 12-20-2017, 01:03 AM

GoldenEye @ #4 - impressive. Although it’s my favorite of the Brosnan films, I had all of the Craig’s, both Dalton’s and the Lazenbee all ranked higher. I own it - guess it’s time for another look.

But the big question is: FRWL or CR? I love em both, so it’s academic for me.

You and me both. As for Auric Goldfinger, that's spot on.
