Has to be Diamonds are Forever or Die Another Day
Just watched Diamonds are Forever again after not seeing it in a very long time... Wow is this movie bad... This is borderline parody ...
I never realized it was this bad

Die Another Day

That fucking white guy turning out to be the North Korean guy is a worse plot twist than anything M. Night ever came up with.

Edit: Actually, in all seriousness... it might be that one where Bond rapes a woman.

It's Die Another Day. I don't think it's even close, really.

Well, MAYBE Diamonds are Forever. Or View to a Kill.

But it's Die Another Day.

Thunderball. Hated the water parts, so slow. Only Bond movie I had to watch three times because I kept falling asleep.

Well, Die Another Day is the worse Brosnan movie,
Never Say Never Again is the worse Connery movie (it's non-cannon though),
View to A Kill or Moonraker for Moore,
Both Dalton movies are pretty bad
OHMSS with Lazenby is great and it's his only turn..

All in All I'd have to say Die Another Day is the worst because it's so over-the-top cringe worthy, I mean everything about it is bad.

Diamonds Are Forever followed by A View to a Kill.
Can hardly rewatch those. At least Die Another Day had a decent opening half.

I don't think Never Say Never Again should count. Because it's the only one I haven't seen

Die Another Day, though World is Not Enough holds the distinction as the only film I've ever fallen asleep during.

Diamonds Are Forever is just Connery and team phoning it in. DAD hurts.

Die Another Day.

All the other bad Bond films had something entertaining or redeeming about them, but Die Another Day is absolute shit.

Upping the degree of Difficulty: Worst Bond, per-actor. (Lazenby disqualified, obviously)

Connery: Diamonds are Forever (runner up: You Only Live Twice)
Moore: A View to a Kill (runner up: Octopussy)
Dalton: The Living Daylights (that's right: I'm that weirdo who prefers Licence to Kill)
Brosnan: Die Another Day (runner up: The World is Not Enough)
Craig: Quantum of Solace (fun fact: Both Skyfall and Casino Royale make the top 5 Bond films of all time)

I'll say both Diamonds and Die Another Day are enjoyable. Terrible movies, but at least it is not boring. I'll go with The Man with the Golden Gun. It is a terrible movie, but it is also a boring one. The premise being good too, only hurts it more. The fact they had Christopher Lee... Yet waste him. Again, it just makes it more painful for me to watch.

Die Another Day was at least the first half of it was decent and we can look back and laugh at the over the top moments. Diamonds Are Forever is just plain dull on a rewatch. Even the silly aspects of it aren't very funny.

Unspoilering so all may see the terribleness of this opinion.

Madonna's Bond theme is one of the single worst things about Die Another Day, which is saying something. I'd say it's neck and neck with Lulu's "Man With the Golden Gun" for worst Bond theme ever, in fact.

Die Another Day was the one where the cold open ended with Bond being captured right? I should have realized it was going to be terrible then and there.

Yeah, Die Another Day. Easily. And I fucking hated Skyfall.

Not only is Diamonds are Forever a terrible Bond movie, it denied me the revenge flick I was seeking after OHMSS. Die Another Day is atrocious but fuck everyone involved with Diamonds for what we got instead of what we should have got.

Quantum. Movie felt like one action scene after another and those scenes were not even good. At least some of the bad old Bonds have some unintentional funny moments, that's why they aren't complete drag to watch. Olga was fine tho.

Die Another Day is the worst one that I've seen. Haven't seen Diamonds are Forever so I'll have to take everyone's word for it. Die Another Day had an awesome intro, though
The song, not the aircraft chase.

Skyfall was not only the worst Bond movie I've seen, but probably one of the worst movies I saw that whole year. The plot was so convoluted.. the only good thing out of that movie was adele's song.
