    Interesting: Brosnan is the first Bond to be all out.

    Is it safe to say that these 10 films are ajb007.co.uk's general consensus for the 10 Best Bond films? If so, 8 of them are on my current top 10 list as well except for TSWLM and GE. TSWLM is my current number 11 though.


    Yes, I think it's a pretty safe conclusion. A while back I had worked out a statistic based on a sample of "favourite film lists" from this forum. The result for the favourite 10 was as follows:


    GF: 419 points
    FRWL: 392
    OHMSS: 305
    CR: 282
    TSWLM: 197
    TLD: 188
    DN: 185
    TB: 176
    GE: 167
    FYEO: 155


    You'll notice that the only discrepancy is the presence of FYEO at number 10 in place of YOLT.

    Two things;1) I am shocked that both Brosnan films have been eliminated, especially with a disappointment like CR and rubbish like TLD still in. :#

    2)Apart from TLD and CR, every film on this list is in my top 10. In fact, my top seven films (the 60's films and TSWLM) are still in.

    Well jetset, I would help you, but you've been helping to dispose of Goldeneye.

    Hoi! I didn't once vote against GoldenEye! Cheek.

    Time to start shoring up TSWLM, I think, so more deserving cases can be eliminated (*cough* Dr No *cough*)

    RJJB, it appears you voted just as I did, so I've adjusted your scoring to take mine into account. Even though you totally negated my point for TSWLM X-(

    I think TSWLM will always seesaw in the rankings. Maybe I had better create a few other identities so I can influence the vote. Just kidding.

    CR a "disappointment"? TLD "rubbish"? To each his own but I think a viewer who disliked either of those 2 Bond films would probably not care for the Fleming Bond novels either.

    Personally speaking, I think TLD and CR are the 2 best Bond films made from 1980 onwards. Each one individually is better than all 4 Brosnan Bonds put together IMHO. I would not have been disappointed if (playing imaginary cinematic timeline here) CR had immediately followed TLD though I would still would have wanted to keep LTK mainly for Dalton's and Davi's perfomances and GE if it had starred Dalton as Bond who it was originally written and intended for.
