    Live and Let Die is a really good Bond film, one of my favourites.

    Even now the theme tune is stuck in my head

    (Because I looked it up on YouTube)

    this is actually no less ridicilous than any of the movies really

    Actually it is significantly more ridiculous than even all of Roger Moore's Bond films combined.

    Edcrab I respect you as a man


    but the theme song is the only part of Live and Let Die that is not completely awful

    Roger Moore's films are gold purely for the performances of one man:

    I liked James Bond Jr. when I was a kid, but watching that theme again for the first time in 20 years or whatever


    I do not think it would hold up

    Bond movies are fun, but they are pretty goofy. What is that mess of a movie with all the different Bonds, and Peter Sellers and Woody Allen and all that? I haven't seen that one. Or the new Daniel Craig ones.

    the new Daniel Craig ones are considerably not goofy
    Well, Quantum Of Solace takes itself so seriously that it sort of goes back to being goofy.

    Moore did manage to pull off Bond being a cold killer though

    Like, he was never flustered and if some guy died in some horrible way he just made a quip

    Those movies may have been pretty hammy but Moore's Bond was still a stone-cold killer

    am I remembering correctly that Casino Royale set a world record for "most complete rolls of a car in a filmed scene"? I think the DVD special features pointed that out


    EDIT: also holy shit yes Moonraker is terrible! Although it does include my favorite Bond line ever: "I believe he's attempting re-entry, sir." SO CHEESY!

    I believe that Casino Royale set the record for "most complete rolls of a car ever"

    And the crazy part is that there was a dude in that car! A stunt driver who broke his sternum in something in that crash

    wait there was a driver in that scene?

    how do you, in good conscience, ask someone to do that for a movie?

    the thinking man's odds are on death or, at the very least, permanent disfigurement at that point

    I think Dalton would have been the best Bond had he done more (good) movies.

    The Living Daylights was written as a Moore movie, and License To Kill is a great movie but it's not really a Bond movie.

    Yes, From Russia With Love is the best one.

    Goldfinger sort of ruined Bond, as good as it was.

    Not stopped or pulled over: nothing routine. I always drive properly. A bit fast, perhaps, but always with consummate skill and a natural feel for the road that even cops recognize. No cop was ever born who isn't a sucker for a finely-executed hi-speed Controlled Drift all the way around one of those clover-leaf freeway interchanges.

    Few people understand the psychology of dealing with a highway traffic cop. Your normal speeder will panic and immediately pull over to the side when he sees the big red light behind him . . . and then we will start apologizing, begging for mercy.

    This is wrong. It arouses contempt in the cop-heart. The thing to do - when you're running along about a hundred or so and you suddenly find a red-flashing CHP-tracker on your trail - what you want to do then is accelerate. Never pull over with the first siren-howl. Mash it down and make the bastard chase you at speeds up to 120 all the way to the next exit. He will follow. But he won't know what to make of your blinker-signal that says you're about to turn right.

    I'm quite partial to You Only Live Twice.

    Aside from a great title, it has the volcano ninjas launch pad battle which is still amazing.

    Man i hope whoever owns this franchise now gets their act together and makes another one before Craig decides he does not give a shit anymore.

    Also you have to admit Walken in a view to a kill was pretty great.

    Dalton was a good Bond in bad movies, Moore was a bad Bond in (mostly) good movies, obviously the worst was George Lazenby bad Bond, bad movie, just bad.
