Rate them

Personally my two favorite Connery movies are FRWL and DAF but I also like Dr. No and Goldfiner, YOLT struck me as odd because its kinds stupid to became a ninja IMO, I did like thunderball but too long for my taste.I rate them now

FRWL = 10/10
DAF = 9/10
Goldfinger = 9/10
Dr. no = 8.5/10
Thunderball= 8/10
YOLT= 8/10
NSNA= 6.5/10

Goldfinger 9/10 -- storyline and complexity of villain
YOLT 9/10 -- storyline and complexity of villain (intro of Blofeld)
Dr. No 8/10 -- storyline and villain
DAF 8.5/10 -- storyline and villains
Thunderball 8/10 -- storyline and villain
NSNA 7/10 -- storyline and villain
FRWL 6/10 -- storyline (the villain sucked!)

DAF A big ten.
FRWL Another big ten.
THUNDERBALL Nine.
GOLDFINGER Eight.
YOLT Seven.
DR NO Six.
NSNA

DAF (and non-Connery OHMSS) are my two FAVOURITE Bond films but in terms of top notch quality I think FRWL is the best of the series...as I've said before, it's a great film in it's own right and one of THE best films of the '60s IMO...

Yerssot hates DAF for some reason or another, maybe its because he wanted to be bond just couldn't cut it? hehehehe

Out of interest, why do you like DAF so much? I mean, I always thought that English Blofeld was a bit naff...

Not to speak ill of those serving queen and country, but I think not getting the part as either Mr Wint or Kidd had something to do with it...

What are you implying?!

Goldfinger is the definitive James Bond movie.

I was actually evilly joking on Yerss' dislike of DAF and NOT P6's appreciation of it...

I can't rate them I dunno if I'd give a 10 to something, I can't say that one of them is perfect

None are, er, up to date enough for you...

FRWL = 8/10 (one of the best)
DAF = 4.5/10 (very stupid story, and he looks too old)
Goldfinger = 7/10 (a nice one)
Dr. no = 7/10 (he wasn't in it yet)
Thunderball= 7/10 (he got into bond in this one)
YOLT= 7/10 (same)
NSNA= 0/10 (not official)

So you REALLY DON'T like DAF...

it just failed, it's not that bad

"This...is the price of failure...Mr. Bond!!!"

well, the price apperently is that they still show the movie

YOLT???

DAF! what other sucky movie is there from Sean

NSNA???

but it's not official

f

what?

FRWL only got 8/10

now even though sean is scottish he portrayed James bond the best.

YOu have a thing agianst Scots?

no i was just saying hes a scots and he portrayed an english double 00 agent good. and he was also knighted and thats cool.

so what? Pierce is irish, Lazenby is australian and Dalton is from Wales

I'm (the next bond) from America. hehe

sure thing

Goldfinger is in my view overall the best of the connery bonds as it had all the ingredients to not only entertain the serious bond fan but the casual movie goer too. Goldfinger was made even better by the fact that it is a good 20 minutes shorter than most bond films and a good 10 minutes or more shorter than the next shortest. This keeps it that little bit lively and less laden with meandering dull scenes that add little.
9 out of 10

As for connerys other bonds....

Dr. No. well, it had its budget constraints, and seems a little sedate by todays standards, but never the less a good solid movie. 6 out of 10

From Russia with love: Good acting, good story, great movie. 7 out of 10

Thunderball : looked great, an excellent movie really, but sadly too long and a little too dull. The underwater stuff was great, but a little too much of it. Sadly, the action scenes on dry land were all over all too quickly and did'nt leave much of a lasting impression. 6 out of 10

You only Live Twice: A very entertaining bond...slipping a little further into the realms of fantasy and silliness at times though. The space-ship effects (taking off and landing) are awful, even by the standards of the day. A decent film overall though. 7 out of 10

Diamonds Are Forever.

Has its moments, some good characters, but is just too silly. The pre-credits sequence looks as if it was all filmed in one day and rushed.
5 out of 10

I mostly agree, except I'd give Goldfinger 8, FRWL an 8.5 and Thunderball a 7

And so it automatically gets a 0 out of 10 ?!

yes, I'm hard in this

btw, kalsolar, Goldfinger still holds the record for best second sequal

Yes and no. Goldfinger is #3 in the James Bond movie line-up, but according to the way movies are made these days Goldfinger isn't a sequel, as it tells a completely different story then FRWL & Dr. No, never pretending to the movies before it. FRWL is a sequel as Spectre wants revenge for the death of Dr. No. But Goldfinger is not. No mention of Dr. No or Spectre in the entire movie. Not like the novel which does.

I didn't make the rules RA, it's what boxofficemojo said

I saw From Russia with Love, I like that movie I don't know if is the best one of Sean Connery's movies but I like it

Also, I didn't know that Sean Connery dropped out of school and that was why he was mocked in Saturday Night Live
I just read it in a place talking about annoying people

I didn't know either... he was mocked? cry

He was in Saturday Night Live - Here is the quote

but he is still THE bond and has made quite a career; so what's the problem? he doesn't have a stupid piece of paper?

and joking about those tattoos is rediculour. Scots are generally very fond of their freedom (look at the history, anyone remember William Wallace?) and what's wrong with loving your mum and dad? they brought you to this place and took care of you for a long time

I think some poeple find that annoying, anyway, he is a great actor

he very much is

and what's annoying? it's not their body he placed it on

I don't know, I found a weird site... wait
this one http://www.amiannoying.com/

what a site name

you don't like the site or the name?

both, I just took a quiz from there, it was funny but is says that I'm moderate annoying

not to me though

You took it?
What did it say?

I didn't took it and I'm sure I'm too annoying to be even on that thing

twas a silly test



what do you mean?

a failed quote I think

Sorry about the earlier attempt.

What I was trying to say is "even" doesn't come into it - Bond isn't English - he's a Scot.

actually... in the books bond was english but when Sean played him Ian Flemming changed Bond's background to being scottish

Ahem! Where in the books does it mention him being English?

It wasn't mentioned at ALL till after '62 & Sean won Flemming over and he decided to give Bond Scottish roots - thats not changing anything, its not as if he contradicted anything from an earlier story. Bond is the quintessential Scottish spy - and thats that.

just on a bond sites that's specialised in books
