Guys you can discuss the movie in discussion, and why you think one is better than the other.

I think TMWTGG has Christopher Lee. but the story is not as good as FYEO

scifisuperfan · 03-22-2020, 02:49 PM

For Your Eyes Only seems to be a better movie...

traths · 03-22-2020, 02:53 PM

For Your Eyes Only is my favorite of the Roger Moore Bonds.

CreasyBear · 03-22-2020, 02:57 PM

Christopher Lee is the best thing about MWTGG. Without him, it would probably be my least favorite of the series and it's pretty close to being my least favorite anyway. FYEO is a better film in every respect, except for the villain. Had someone of Lee's stature been the villain, it would be Moore's best, bar none. Julian Glover is a fine villain, but he's just not as memorable as the best Bond villains. But in every other way, it's superior. Better opening titles, song, female lead, stunts, cinematography, etc.

For Your Eyes Only is my vote this time round.

Do you think there will be a season 5 of Mike Tyson Mysteries?

also, yeah FYEO is better

stardragon9 · 03-22-2020, 03:38 PM

For Your Eyes Only all the way!

AKORIS · 03-22-2020, 03:48 PM

I love both movies--- I'm sure FYEO will be the winner here since it's typically thought of as bigger and better---

TMWTGG has such fond memories for me though-- saw it in the theater when I was around 10 years old with my dad--- and Christopher Lee as a Bond villain is absolutely fantastic! Great music score as well....

jawsfan1975 · 03-22-2020, 06:33 PM

FYEO is the superior movie. After the silly but fun Moonraker 007 came back to earth with Roger's most realistic Bond with no gadgets really.

Winslow Leach · 03-22-2020, 07:48 PM

They're both great, but I picked For Your Eyes Only.

GrouchoFan · 03-22-2020, 08:08 PM

I don't like the brackets. Goldfinger facing off against From Russia With Love? Both should make the Final Four at least!

Also Skyfall vs Quantum of Solace? I understand the randomness of it, but it's too bad they couldn't be seeded with no two movies having the same actor face each other in the first round. (Would that have been mathematically possible anyway, given Moore's 7 films? You know math is not my strong suit.)

Ah, screw it, I don't want to be a whiner! This is just for fun. I appreciate the OP's efforts in putting this game together. This will give us something to think about besides you-know-what!

FYEO is my favorite of the Moore era.

Damon1281 · 03-22-2020, 08:26 PM

Why is this being limited to EON?

I just used an Random number generator, each number being the movie released (1 dr no 2 FRWL etc.) and 2 and 3 was next to eachother. sorry.

Eon is official, and i'm not putting CR 1967 , the Thunderball ripoff. and the earlier versions of bond in TV

scifisuperfan · 03-22-2020, 09:02 PM

Just saying that the connery fanbois will make everything in their power to make Dr. No the winner...

TheSpruceMoose · 03-22-2020, 09:05 PM

Just on the strength of its vertigo inducing finale alone, For Your Eyes gets my pick, in addition to a number of other reasons.

[Show spoiler]

GrouchoFan · 03-22-2020, 09:35 PM

Those are some pretty damn good reasons!
