I agree with The Live and Let Die suggestion, Roger Moore's first and finest.
No. Well I dont think so, its a solid debut but I perfer the Spy Who Loved Me.
Most the Connery ones are fairly safe pretty good entertainment, not sure why DaVe doesn't like Diamond are Forever, although all I remember about it is that his fake family motto is "The World is Not Enough". Goldfinger is definitely the highlight.
All the Connery ones are very good. Dr. No, From Russia With Love, Goldfinger, Thunderball and You Only Live Twice is the best run of films in the series, easily.
Of course the family motto thing is from On Her Majesty's Secret Service but you knew that really didnt you Ben.
Goldfinger is my favourite as well.
Tucked in there is On Her Majesty's Secret Service which is definitely worth a watch. It's almost brilliant, but it just keeps falling short. The end always gets me though.
Its a good film and I'm never quite sure if having Lazenby as lead helps it or ruins it. It follows the book almost word for word and is the only one Pete Hunt directed. I think if Connery had been in it, the action would have seemed better but I dont think I could have bought Connerys Bond falling in love and getting married.
Lazenby does deliver in the last scene though. He gets it perfect.
Is it possible to watch all 22 bond films over a weekend? Should I try?
I dont reckon it would be. Alot of the older ones are only 1 hour 45 ish but the newer ones run closer to 2 hours 15. Probably averages out at 2 hours per film. If you can stay awake for 44 hours and do nothing else you might have a chance. Have watched them all in a week though.
