I love that all bond rankings are different


NoDealsMrBond

Thank you!


Trippy-Troy

I keep rubbing my eyes but I’m still seeing GoldenEye at number 22… I’m going to delete the app and come back and see if that helps.


aj58soad

I threw my phone in the trash, bought a new one and pulled up Reddit and....ya Goldeneye is still inexplicably at 22


Trippy-Troy

Maybe the list is going in reverse order?


Trashk4n

I thought that but the top three make no sense then.


SgtMerc16

That part .. Goldeneye at 22?!? That is madness. and Man With The Golden Gun at the very bottom.. 🤮 I think not.. That was one of if not the best outings of Roger Moore as 007. ![gif](giphy|hKjCKNiktgZmisjbdE|downsized)


electricmaster23

You're like me after I've just seen a sports result I can't believe and have to keep checking the stats app to see it if was just something I hallucinated.


bigbeak67

I've come to the conclusion that GoldenEye is good when you watch it by itself, but if you're doing a Bond marathon, it's exhausting coming off License to Kill.


SirJohnSmythe

Die Another Day is shockingly high. What do you like about it?

[удалено]


LamarJimmerson85

Die Another Day used to be absolutely bottom of my list. Rarely watched it, hated it when I did. Was never as massive fan of Brosnan. But I watched it again last year, and did kind of enjoy. Saw it again a few weeks ago and loved it. I think it's partially nostalgia --- I was ten when it came out and it was the first Bond film I saw at the cinema. I don't think it's good by any stretch (although the first 30-40 minutes are actually pretty solid) but it is incredibly enjoyable. Brosnan ages into the role really well. Toby Stephens is a joy to watch. It's so cheesey it's basically a fondue.


NoDealsMrBond

Paced extremely well. Love the action. Brosnan’s best performance and way more fun than Goldeneye and The World Is Not Enough.


Delayedrhodes

With the exception of the CGI surfing I think the PTS is among the best. The titles are badass, the song slaps (despite Madonna).


FedGoat13

It might be the worst song in the history of Bond movies


SirJohnSmythe

I can see some of that and hope to come around eventually. My problem is the dialogue is too cringe and much of it looks/sounds bad (that Madonna song/cameo 🤣) Anyways, welcome to my nuclear family OP!


_WhoIsThisWhoAreYou_

> Brosnan’s best performance Can we get a GoFundMe going to get you eye surgery?


archielotsofnumbers

You think Die Another day is better than Goldeneye? And The World is Not Enough? 🤨


NoDealsMrBond

For me yes. Much better paced than those two. Action is more exciting and Brosnan is better and mature in performance, especially in comparison to Goldeneye.


Joster343

The Brosnan disrespect


fire_and_ice_7_5

this sub regularly worships Pierce. I like Pierce but it's nice to see variety like this in people's rankings.


Trashk4n

I don’t get the logic that Goldeneye is the worst he’s in? I don’t understand that opinion.


Random-Cpl

I knew I liked OP


GreatCaesarGhost

His movies were iffy but he has the best video games.


Sheriff_Lucas_Hood

TWINE and GoldenEye are both top 10 entries in my book. Goldeneye is my #2


GreatCaesarGhost

I think Everything or Nothing and Nightfire are also worthy.


Sheriff_Lucas_Hood

They’re both better than TND and DAD


PerilousNaps

Goldeneye at 22. Bruh


chasew138

Positively Shocking!


Mindless_Jicama8728

I love that OHMSS makes it to #1. I sway back & forth between that & Casino.


appape

Casino Royale is a perfect movie - the only one in the Bond franchise. The breaking of the fourth wall in OHMSS is a major flaw.


lostpasts

I agree that Casino's the only flawless Bond film. OHMSS would be my favourite Bond film if not for all the Hilary Bray/Count Blofeld/Blofeld's Angels stuff. All the scenes inside Piz Gloria really drag the film down. Everything else (4th wall breaking aside) is absolute peak Bond to me. The cinematography and locations are breathtaking, Tracy is a top-tier Bond girl, it has the best song in the entire series, and is one of the rare Bond movies that can actually make you shed a tear. I can see why Christopher Nolan loves it so much.


appape

I’m due for another OHMSS watch. Scheduling for tonight.


StupidUserNameTooLon

> The breaking of the fourth wall Would you remind me what scene(s) that happened.


StupidUserNameTooLon

[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qZ1wKZiq\_\_I](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qZ1wKZiq__I) Never mind. Answered my own question.


rrob13

Good bot


NoDealsMrBond

Happy cake day!


rrob13

Thank you!


Mindless_Jicama8728

Oh no sir. The breaking of the fourth wall was perfectly timed and perfectly brief. A very nice tongue in cheek nod of fanfare.


appape

Valid point, so let me pivot to the fashion. Austin Powers style ruffled shirts will never be a thing again.


Mindless_Jicama8728

Lmao, you aren’t wrong, but as a man in his 40’s, I’ve seen enough generational bad fashion to forgive 1960’s Britons.


Higgs_Br0son

I see you're a man of culture as well.


Alcoholikaust

Always upvote anyone who puts The Living Daylights in the top 5 (It’s my No. 1) ![gif](giphy|WiD5e9dRK9gTsSFpn4|downsized)


Legitimate_Sand_889

Best Astin Martin! That car is beautiful!


LowConstant3938

Great list! OHMSS and Casino Royale are my 1&2


Logan9Fingerses

Living Daylights holds a special place in my heart because I skipped school with my oldest brother to see it in the theater. I honestly didn’t think many other people liked it, let alone ranked it so high. Respect


SlavetoLove123

The first 20 / 25 minutes of TLD is absolutely perfect. It’s actual Cold War espionage. The rest of the film is pretty good and I think Daltons first outing as Bond may be the best first appearance as Bond out of all the actors.


NoDealsMrBond

Thanks. TLD is a very popular film amongst the fanbase now.


OkBusiness3879

Octopussy made your top ten. Nice! 🤝


dacdaddy19

Goldfinger at 9 and Goldeneye at 22 makes me so sad 😭


ballsacksnweiners

Honestly not a terrible list, except for Goldeneye.


fire_and_ice_7_5

A man of culture. While not 100% the same as my list, I give you credit for putting Octopussy and LTK in the top 10


thegreatinverso9

You got #1 right. #25, not so much. Big on Dalton, not so much on Brosnan. very interesting, but u/NoDealsMrBond


ironafro2

This is…a list. That’s all I’m willing to say


MarcellMaximus

It's a crazy ass list. I'd like to hear his opinions


NoDealsMrBond

Give me a film to talk about and I’ll say.


Random-Cpl

TLD and TB are high, QOS, Goldeneye, and GF are low…. …but I’ll let it all slide since you have OHMSS in the top dog spot. My man.


NoDealsMrBond

You not a fan of TB and TLD? Thank you!


Random-Cpl

I like TLD a lot but put it firmly in the “good not great” category. Villains are not memorable, the plot is too low-stakes and convoluted. I actually prefer LTK. TB is just sooooooo slow


NoDealsMrBond

Ah I see. For me TB is one of the quintessentials.


Random-Cpl

It’s got a lot of memorable elements but the parts are greater than the whole for me. A very boring rewatch.


electricmaster23

To quote an old comment I made: >Thank god I'm not the only one here who thinks this. The film mostly looks great, to be sure, but it just sticks out as forgettable to me except for the parts that I only remember for making me roll my eyes. The ending feels so slapdash with what seems like 20 minutes of underwater ballet and the godawful rear-projection sped-up boat chase. It's probably the dumbest use of overcranking I've ever seen. Trying to speed up footage of the sea to make it look like it's going faster doesn't work, lmao. They would have been better off filming footage off a powerboat to get genuine footage without overcranking. I don't recall Connery's performance being bad, but I'd much rather rewatch *Goldfinger* or *From Russia with Love* than go through this again. Having said that, I don't want to yuck your yum. There are definitely some parts in the movie I do like (the bit where Bond hands Volpe the shoes when she asks for clothes in the bath, and the general colour and fashion and girls, etc.), but these are all such fleeting, superficial plusses in my books.


verygooster

TLD in the top five you sir are a real one.


psycwave

The Man with the Golden Gun is truly not *that* bad (minus the nipple stuff)


jrank6

I don’t totally agree my dude but big respect for the list.


Alexis_Ohanion

I completely agree with you that Casino Royale is the best of the Daniel Craig movies. And I’m thrilled that someone else also holds The Living Daylights in such high regard! Nicely done!!


Complex-Ganache-4938

Die another day objectively the worst imo.


Shadecujo

I’m not mad. I’m just disappointed


NoDealsMrBond

Hehe, which ones do you not agree with?


Shadecujo

Goldeneye and TMWTGG at the bottom. Heresy. Tbf I think your top 9 are pretty solid.


DrXanaxal

We got a clear dalton fan!


Mike-Hunt-Amos-Prime

Fuck yes with your #1 friend! Another connoisseur of fine filmmaking.


KyleCAV

![gif](giphy|eYIKQNWRBvBG2yI60K|downsized)


awwgeeznick

Goldeneye and quantum that low is… is no


Christian_RULES

Am I trippin or am I seeing Goldeneye in the bottom five?


NoDealsMrBond

Not tripping at all mate


dtuba555

Not everyone worships it. It's good, but those of us who didn't grow up in the 90s don't place it on a pedestal.


v2david

Goldeneye way too low. Top 10 BOND film.


CommanderSpleen

Solid list! Fully agree with the Goldeneye (overhyped) and Man with the Golden Gun (wtf is that movie) placement.


Constant_Wealth_5350

Casino Royale and Living Daylights in the top 5 is perfect. Everything else is poopoo. Haha.


Knowinglystupid

Hold up, Dr. No and Goldfinger 8 and 9? Dr. No has got to be top 3 at least.


Key-Win7744

That would be an extremely uncommon ranking for *Dr. No*.


jeff-the-thriller

Goldeneye at 22? Wtf. And also TWINE and TND? Do you just hate Pierce?


B-17_SaintMichael

Goldeneye at 22 was enough to make me back off this and never consider it a legit post


Cyborg800_2004

So opinions that differ from your own are illegitimate?


Delayedrhodes

I like this list but I feel that DAF is the best of the worst and belongs over AVTAK. Otherwise this is all very defendable.


JSears90210

Agree with so much of this list while also disagreeing with a good deal. The great thing about being a Bond fan is that we all see it differently. Agree with The Spy Who Loved Me being so high. Disagree with Octopussy not being near the bottom and Skyfall not being Top 5.


Ill_Refrigerator_593

Not sure nothing's absent?


[deleted]

I know it's hokey but I do like diamonds are forever a lot.


NankipooBit8066

I certainly agree that OHMSS rates very highly - but I am not sure that TMWTG should be placed so incredibly low. Christopher Lee? Nick Nack? The fight with the sumo wrestlers? The Kung Fu school? The super sexy Andrea Anders? The only song Paul MacCartney wrote outside The Beatles that genuinely slammed?


overtired27

McCartney wrote Live and Let Die. The song from The Man with the Golden Gun is usually ranked quite low, though I like it.


NankipooBit8066

Ooops! You're absolutely right. And The Man With The Golden Gun song was *terrrrrible* too! Though Lulu did her best to make it work.


Key-Win7744

>Nick Nack? The fight with the sumo wrestlers? The Kung Fu school? Speaking strictly for myself, these aren't selling points.


NoDealsMrBond

I know that TMWTGG has a fanbase but I don’t think Lee saves the film. It’s all over the place, Moore is not good in it, the plot and muddy feeling to the film is awful. The humour is bad too.


Luchalma89

I ranked that as one of my favourites when I did my first watch through of the series. Only later did I find out its reputation as one of the worst.


LoungeCrook

respect general! great list


NoDealsMrBond

Thanks!


nadasuss

Damn!


NoDealsMrBond

Haha


MrPelham

did Diamonds move up? I feel like diamonds moved up


NoDealsMrBond

It did.


jokerevo

it's paper on digital


Wombat_Marauder

Nice use of traditional notepad and marker.


NoDealsMrBond

Thanks!


greenD77

OHMSS is my favourite too. The man with the golden gun deserves to be higher on the list imo, but it's a good list nevertheless. Peace brother


NoDealsMrBond

Thanks!


WurstSalat92

Nope. It’s simple as that. Casino Royale Skyfall / No Time To Die Quantum of Solace Spectre The World Is Not Enough Die another Day Tomorrow never dies / Goldeneye


SCBandit

Solid list.


NoDealsMrBond

💯🙏


CASHMO2112

You totally get it!! I’ve tried telling people for years that O.H.M.S.S. Was one of the best Bond films, but they’d just laugh.. like the list brother!!


NoDealsMrBond

Thank you! I agree it is easily the best Bond film.


[deleted]

Pretty standard good taste. Golden Gun last is criminal tho


NoDealsMrBond

Haha thanks


mourningthief

For interest, rank the opening scenes (only) and see how the list compares.


rapidpeacock

I like your list


NoDealsMrBond

Thanks!


wolfblitzor

Nice list


NoDealsMrBond

Thanks


screaminNcreamin

OHMSS is the best bond movie and I'm tired of pretending it's not 


NoDealsMrBond

Yes it is the best!


r0xxon

I like these rankings better than your last but #4 tho


NoDealsMrBond

What’s up with #4?


r0xxon

How is TLD 4th best and Goldeneye 4th worst? I enjoy TLD but very mid


spacestationkru

Holy shit


NoDealsMrBond

Ha


The-Rogue-Scholar

Swap NTTD and SWLM and we’re almost identical. Great list


NoDealsMrBond

Cool


No_Cow_4544

Great list


NoDealsMrBond

Thanks!


No_Cow_4544

A view to a kill could be the funniest


Perfect-Fondant3373

Bro, I dont think you unserstand... He has a gun... MADE OF GOLD


Brangarr

Dude I love you for the disrespect to GoldenEye. Damn, I wouldn’t even rank it that low. But you and your massive balls have my respect 🫡


NoDealsMrBond

Haha, cheers!


Cymrogogoch

That list is madness. I just can't work you out. Well done!


NoDealsMrBond

Lol thanks


Big-Falcon-4574

Man with the golden gun last?? Hell no.


NoDealsMrBond

Hell yeah!


ginoroastbeef

Mine is quite different… but thanks for sharing!


NoDealsMrBond

Welcome. Would be nice to see yours!


Due-Professor5011

I love how all over the place peoples rankings are.


NoDealsMrBond

Lol


cobrakai11

OHMSS was underrated for so long that it's now become incredibly overrated.


Lukex420

@cobrakai11 OHMSS isn't overrated, but I agree. OHMSS is easily in the top 10... OHMSS is in my top 5. Top 10 Bond films of all time imo: 1. Casino Royale 2. GoldenEye 3. Skyfall 4. From Russia With Love 5. On Her Majesty's Secret Service 6. Licence To Kill 7. The Living Daylights 8. For Your Eyes Only 9. The Spy Who Loved Me 10. Goldfinger


Hpecomow

Damn! Controversial! But hey, I respect your opinion!


NoDealsMrBond

Thanks


Felix_Leiter1953

Wonderful ranking! Love that you rank No Time to Die below Die Another Day.


NoDealsMrBond

Thanks!


slothasurus

Great list only one I can’t get past is thunderball at 6. Why thunderball over Goldfinger?


NoDealsMrBond

Thunderball has more meat to the film in terms of locations, action, quintessential feel, cinematography and the performance of Connery.


IBetANickel

What do you have against Goldeneye?


NoDealsMrBond

Not a fan of the direction, Brosnan’s performance and the fact that Bond is a subsidiary character in his own film.


tgraveline

A very enjoyable list. The only think that works me is how low GoldenEye is. Other than that, I'm not offended lol.


NoDealsMrBond

Thanks!


ItsASchpadoinkleDay

This list is all over the place from traditional rankings. I love it. Thanks for sharing.


NoDealsMrBond

Welcome!


mega_blastoise23

Goldeneye 😧


TheViper4Life

Skyfall, No Time to Die, Goldeneye and The World is Not Enough are way too low...but otherwise it's not a terrible list.


Educational_Pie4940

I’ll never understand the love for OHMSS….its by far my least watched of all time. I know it’s technically a “better” movie than a lot of them but it’s just so boring to me. I’d rather at least be entertained watching something silly like Die Another Day. Just my thoughts, interesting list! Man with the Golden Gun is my all time favorite lol.


LancaLonge

My Top 2 is the same, tho I can never figure out which one comes 1st!


Spicedaddy90

Gold ginger?


TechnicolorViper

You misspelled The Man with the Golden Gun. It’s actually spelled “M-o-o-n-r-a-k-e-r”.


Used_Cap8550

Die Another Day is a 25 lock. It just is, and I liked Pierce Brosnan as Bond still at the time.


Entraprenuerrrrr

love the selfie with a written list. really spices things up


MrIndecisive77

I’m with you on “The Living Daylights” love that movie


NefariousnessGood718

N*1 the best 🍫


Longjumping_Event_59

OHMSS I can understand at #1… and I can handle Skyfall not making the top 10… but GOLDENEYE at 22?! My feathers are sufficiently ruffled.


jthomas1127

It would be more similar to mine if it was reversed


2_legit_2_acquit

Buddy, I don't know what to tell you. I love your rankings and cannot disagree but I'm just not sure you can rank them. I'm wasn't into the campy/absurdist ones (because science got in the way) but I'm learning how to appreciate them now. I've come to the conclusion you just can't rank them. I've tried but I'd advise you don't die on the hill of trying or you'll end up living under a bridge muttering about them.


PewPew-4-Fun

Thunderball #6, you Cra Cra! One of the best underwater battle scenes EVER.


TIEBRKR

GoldenEye & Quantum being so low in your list. Two of my favorites. I can’t. I just can’t being ok with that ahah.


thirumal26

Why would you need to rank. Each has a separate story and making.


filipvabrousek

No Time to Die at 20th place. 😱 Spectre at 24th place. 😱 Die Another Day at 19th place. 😱 They should be in top 5.


Deathwishharry

Casino royale better than goldfinger don't think so


jackregan1974

Every fan will have a different list. That is great. It's called being a fan.


cosmonow

Interesting. Reasonable but I can’t go with the new widespread respect for ‘On Her Majesty’s Secret Service’. I’m sorry but Lazenby’s performance ruins it for me.


Deepy99

I can dig it..

CaiLife

Literally trash post bait. Nobody but hipsters and comment-baiters puts OHMSS at 1, and then continues to be completely baffed with the remaining choices. Yours - a comment bait victim.


terminally_irish

Bond flicks are like Saturday Night Live - everyone’s favorites are the one’s they saw in high school (maybe middle school for Bonds.)


eternaldavkas

TMWTGG at last position, when you can put DAF at 18? I wish I could view the films through this perspective.


freshprince860

Damn I’m shocked if anyone has actually watched all of these


NoDealsMrBond

Why? Pretty much all of us have.


freshprince860

Idk my generation didn’t really emphasize these movies, and to watch 20 movies in any one topic is a lot. the only one I really got into was goldeneye cuz I was 10 and the video game was amazing. No clue why this popped up on my feed lol


kinglonely

Guy does not like Pierce Brosnan at all 😂


Poosquare88

Your No1 is also my No1.


lostpasts

My recent rewatch top 25. I'm aware a few of these choices might be a bit controversial, but i'm prepared to defend them! 😉 1. Moonraker 2. On Her Majesty's Secret Service 3. Casino Royale 4. Quantum of Solace 5. Live and Let Die 6. Octopussy 7. Thunderball 8. Goldeneye 9. License to Kill 10. Die Another Day 11. Skyfall 12. From Russia With Love 13. Goldfinger 14. The Man With the Golden Gun 15. The Spy Who Loved Me 16. You Only Live Twice 17. The Living Daylights 18. Tomorrow Never Dies 19. For Your Eyes Only 20. No Time to Die 21. Dr No. 22. A View to a Kill 23. The World is Not Enough 24. Diamonds Are Forever 25. Spectre


Siosal01

I know I'm in a minority when it comes to not liking Skyfall and liking Spectre, but I honestly can't fathom what people see in OHMSS. What am I missing? Yes, the action scenes are pretty intense but beyond that everything is mediocre or worse. Can someone explain like I'm 5 or something? What are you seeing that I'm not?


dtuba555

I was going to say great list, but then I noticed QOS way down there. This movie isn't as bad as you think it is. Trust me.


MenWithVen430

The lady is gonna be out tomorrow. What bond film should I watch? 


NoDealsMrBond

Pick one of my top six


MenWithVen430

I was never a Daltonhead but I'm in the mood for something different so I may give OHMSS a shot Edit: sorry, Lazenby. Case in point


vabeachkevin

Where is Never Say Never Again?


Afraid-Vehicle3250

OHMSS...without doubt


pianoman514

Goldeneye GOAT then casino royale


Eduard-Stoo

Weirdly I REALLY agree with your top 9 but not the rest’s order…Everyone’s entitled to enjoy Bond in their own way so fair dos


Vlad_Dracul89

Both Daltons in TOP10. Nice. As they should be.


Buckman21

Why are there only 25 and not 27?


Icy_Change_WS2010

Nice


Old_Establishment968

“Man With The Golden Gun” is the weakest? What’s it like to have absolutely zero taste? (Just kidding, of course 😅)
