Best James Bond movie?
The Living Daylights. I think that's what it's called anyway, the first one with Timothy Dalton. I like this one the most because it has John Reese Davies, the action scenes are fantastic, the love story is believable and at times touching, and Bond isn't shown as the only agent who can fight a good fight (the scene in the Kitchen for example).
Honorable Mentions: Goldeneye and You Only Live Twice.

I find it hard to pick a favorite, but I must say that I like the older movies a lot better. A lot. In fact, I don't really like Brosnan much. Sure, he's a decent guy, but Connery has him beat hands down.
The real difference isn't with the actors though. It's with the writers. The old Bond movies were spy movies. The new ones are action movies. The same thing happened to Mission Impossible and it makes me sad.

I did prefer the spy movies, but its just with a bigger budget, they can afford better things, and spy movies themselves don't spend all the budget.
My favorite Bond movie is "Live and Let Die", followed closely by "You Only Live Twice". I actually like all of the Bond movies and think all the actors who've played James Bond have, in one way or another, done an excellent job of portraying the super suave spy. It's too bad George only got one chance at playing Bond, who knows what he may have done with "Diamonds are Forever"?
Best:
The Spy Who Loved Me
Live and Let Die
Goldfinger

Worst:
Moonraker

Spy Who Loved Me- classic definition of Bond, best opening, best theme song, great settings, most memorable villian, excelently OTT
From Russia With Love- Bond in the best film where he is more a spy less an action hero, fantast espionage
Goldeneye- the best modern take on Bond, filling on Bond codes and conventions on a contemporary level. An excellent all-round action film and great debut from Pierce
Worst- Diamonds are Forever- i dont want to talk about the travesty
From Russia With Love- Bond in the best film where he is more a spy less an action hero, fantast espionage
Goldeneye- the best modern take on Bond, filling on Bond codes and conventions on a contemporary level. An excellent all-round action film and great debut from Pierce
Worst- Diamonds are Forever- i dont want to talk about the travesty

Well Ewan McGregor and Dougrie Scott are the 2 scottish people pipped to be the next Bond, however I think Ewan may be a tad young looking.
i dont see either of them tbh, however i havnt been old enough to apprciate the changing of bonds, only in retrospect

Ioan Gruffud is apparently in top position for Mr Bond, hes also Mr Fantastic in the Fantastic Four and i also hate him
