The top two are interchangeable for me, they're both brilliant. If a Bond ranking doesn't have those in at least the top 3 then it's instantly wrong.

Live and Let Die is an absolute belter, and The Spy Who Loved Me is great but... Goldeneye and Moonraker?  I'd take View To a Kill over both of those.  Goldeneye is particularly shit, I don't think there's a single really good Brosnan movie.

I loved GoldenEye, shame it was the only decent Bronhom Bond.  TND was half decent but Bronhom suffered from Good Bond, Bad Films overall.

GoldenEye had a lovely old-fashioned feel to the storyline. Exactly the sort of thing the series has forgotten to do.

I don't think anyone in here is against GoldenEye, are they? That loser reviewer for The Guardian didn't like it, though.

Glad to see you're ignoring @Loki's post on it earlier.

I'd love to see them introduce the new James Bond in the "end-credits" scene that most films these days *must* do. Would mean Daniel Craig would have to "die" or "retire" being James Bond and him to reveal that it's just a name. Idris Elba would make a tremendous Bond.

Where does "Never Say Never Again" fit in everybodys list? I'd say it's miles better than "Octopussy" anyway, which came out the same time.

I still think it's mad Connery was younger than Moore when that film came out, for some reason.

Goldeneye is great. Any of the doubters in here care to expand on why they don't like it?

I don't hate it, but I just found it a bit underwhelming. A lot of the action scenes are too short and resolved too easily so not enough tension/drama is built up.
