I wish I had Pierce Brosnan's beer gut.

My top 5 would go something like
Goldfinger
Casino Royale
Goldeneye
Dr. No
From Russia with Love
I will say License to Kill has a special place in my heart just because Timothy Dalton is underrated and often forgotten as Bond

He's totally sucking in his gut in above scene. But when he escapes and enters the hotel later, he lets it all hang.

I love me some License to Kill but I prefer TLD b/c Dalton looked pretty bad in LTK due to his hair loss. His hair is pretty much combed back instead of parted to the side like in LTD or in most other previous Bond films.

True, but I just felt LtK was the better film.
Yea necro was a boss, even had his own theme song.
writers strike
NO IT FUCKING ISN'T!!
I remember seeing this movie in highschool and thinking. Bond was tortured for more than a year and he still has a gut? (not present in this scene)
My top 5:
1. OHMSS (really it should be everybody's favorite)
2. From Russia with Love (Red Grant is my favorite villain)
3. Goldeneye (after Dalton this was a godsend. Also I freaked out when I first saw the trailer for this in the theaters. Best Bond trailer ever.)
4. Dr. No (Connery was a boss)
5. Goldfinger (That car, that golden girl, that laser.)
A View to a Kill was my first experience and I loved it at the time. The theme song was the best. After some time though I learned to despise Moore as Bond after I watched them all. His movies just do not hold up years later.

This I can get behind. I would probably flip 1 and 2, but I'm happy with this regardless. Golden Gun gets props for being incredibly fun.
I heard this recently. I hope it's true. I really, really, really hope it is true.

Like all the Pearce Bond films.
But none compare to the first 4 Sean Connery films. When I think of James Bond I think of the man in those films.
Dude is like the latin dude in the recent liquor movies. If old school Connery kicked my ass I'd have a hard time being upset about it.
Roger Moore ...or the writers of the series...added way too much humor to Moore's Bond.
Plus...he came off as an aristocrat...kinda high brow. imo
The Moore films kinda embraced what I don't like about most movies from the 70s. (Saturday Night Fever, Star Wars, Rocky being some of the exceptions)

They started out great with Live & Let Die and The Man with the Golden Gun. But then they started to get so fucking campy. Fur-lined subs. Jaws became a cartoon character. Grace Jones. It became a parody of itself.
Dalton brought a Miami Vice vibe. But Pierce Brosnan brought the franchise back with GoldenEye.
License to Kill had an awesome theme. Dat Gladys.
