Do you have a favorite theme song?  I list mine:

5)  Nobody Does It Better (The Spy Who Loved Me Theme)

4)  On Her Majesty' Secret Service

3)  Goldfinger

2)  Live And Let Die

1)  A View To A Kill

That's how I feel about it today.  3 out of 5 Roger Moore films.  Who would have thunk it? 

Oooh, haven't really thought about this.

Mine would probably go:

1) Nobody Does It Better

2) For Your Eyes Only

3) A View To A Kill

4) Licence To Kill

5) You Only Live Twice

It's a hard choice and that probably wouldn't be my final list. They're pretty much all brilliant and there are about 10 songs I want in my top 5. I think they did a great job of choosing the theme songs for the Moore films, I would say the only stinker was Man With The Golden Gun. I wanted to put On Her Majesty's Secret and the original Bond theme from Dr. No, but it didn't feel right putting instrumentals in there, especially when the music has appeared in many other Bond films.

I was looking for some Adam Sandler movies in my garage and came across this movie. So I will sit through it just so that I can properly say what I think of it. I also found the Sean Connery Bond before his last one. So I will post that as well.


You'll probably like Tomorrow Never DIes since you are a Brosnan fan and it is his 2nd best Bond film.

Wow! If you didn't like the motorcycle scene than there really isn't much to like.

If they would ever stop talking maybe they could have actually murdered Brosnan. But obviously the only way these baddies can kill is if they have British sailors swimming in the ocean helpless and they rain bullets on them.

Hopefully the director of this film quit directing forever! Did we really need that two hour chines boat scene when they went looking for the stealth boat?

I did have a lot of fun with the remote controlled bmw scene! That was cool.


Pssh.  The director of this film has been in charge of masterpieces such as Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot and Turner and Hooch.

I can see why you liked the BMW scene, but I explained why I didn't.

Both of those movies were a lot of fun! Turner and Hooch especially. Back when Tom Hanks knew how to be funny, besides stints on Jimmy Kimmle and Conan. I forgot Conan was in Chicago this week!!! Damn it.


This might be so, but Tomorrow Never Dies wasn't very fun.

Personally, I love this movie. It's second only to Goldeneye as far as Bond movies, IMHO.

Brosnan is my favorite Bond, Connery is definitely second, and Dalton is easily the worst (never seen Lazenby).

Disagree. Tomorrow Never Dies was awesome for me! Especially the car scene in the garage when he controls it from his phone. And a pretty decent story, and lots of action.

You mentioning every Bond actor but Roger Moore in your post is blatant trolling...

I have a question.  Was GoldenEye the first James Bond movie you ever saw?  Most Brosnan fans seem to be that way because he was the Bond that they were introduced to first.   By the way, I did like GoldenEye but this wasn't very good at all.

A lot of people like the car scene.  I described in detail why I didn't.  We can agree to disagree on that.

I can understand you liking the action in the movie, but the story might be the worst in the entire series.  A Rupert Murdoch wannabe creates the news in order to get it first?  C'mon.  It doesn't get any lamer than that for a Bond film.

Haha well it may be lame but at least it's more original than Russians with a bomb!...or the Daniel Craig movies, based a round a poker game and oh no if he loses he'll be financing terrorism! And whatever Quantum of Solace was about...I don't even remember, saw it in theatres and never watched it again. 

I think I'm just biased towards the Brosnan movies since they're newer and a bit more action oriented than the older ones. I look forward to your review of Die Another Day haha I liked that one...but my foresight is telling me you most likely hated it. 

Edit: Shit I forgot about The World is Not Enough being next. I guess I have to wait 2 weeks
