    Ive been making great progress on my journey to watch every one, ive got about 11 left, seen 16 of them now!! Loved the video, you get out a bunch of thoughts about each movie without lingering on each one too long, my favorites thus far were Skyfall, Casino Royale, Goldfinger, Russia With Love, and Living Daylights. But i think Brosnan is my favorite 007

    Definitely have to agree with you on Moonraker. It's my favorite Roger Moore James Bond movie. Just sit back and enjoy this great cinematic adventure masterpiece. My top 5 is
    1 - Casino Royale (2006)
    2- Goldfinger
    3 - Licence To Kill
    4 - Dr No
    5 - Goldeneye

    Very interesting and well articulated take on the Bond Franchise...I like it! Well done, sir. I certainly hope the next few Bond films bring the fun factor back! BTW, I happen to think every movie should feature Gemma Arterton :)

    @simonvanthoff ปีที่แล้ว

    Yes! Finally! Also one of my favorites (Moonraker) ranked so highly! 👍🏻 I can also watch it anytime!
    Although, on the other hand, with some of the films we differ (for example Skyfall (yes, great, but (by some distance) not really no.1 for me), or View (for me sùrely not at the last place) or Spy (Moore in his best Bond-mood, so to speak ;-) Time (dreadful, in many, many, màny ways..), or Majesty (I just cannot get into Lazenby..)
    Thanks for your very well articulated ranking, really liked it. Kind regards from The Netherlands, Simon 🎹

    I was getting excited that you were going to have my favourite, Moonraker, as number one as most people trash it! But I'll settle for No.2. One silly, fun set piece after another and Jaws was always my favourite character.

    Seriously Mr. bartlett, God bless You,
    that was an epic ranking of James Bond and You had me cracking up all the way to the top! First of all, I agree with Your analisys about Bond films attrait being a way to travel to places. During a European Culture class I attend, an essay question was: Is Dr. Mabuse The Gambler the ancestor of the James Bond franchise. And I had to agree, because both production took the viewers to places where they could never dream to go!
    Also, I love Moonraker. I remember my Mom telling me that Moonraker was quite imaginative for the time comapre to what they do today. It sticked with me. I am also currently reading the Moonraker novel by Fleming.
    Finally, I am curious about Your opinion on the fact that the movie The Rock, with Sean Connery and Nicholas Cage could be a secret James Bond movie. Let's have a go at it!
    Thanks again Mr. Bartlett, You are epic!

      @JohnSmith-jn7nc ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The newer films are exactly what James Bond is supposed to be, the way stories and characters are told in the books which are for the most part very serious and gritty espionage thrillers. It was EON productions company who made you believe in the beginning that Bond is something you think it really is when it isn't.

      @@JohnSmith-jn7nc I'm a hardcore Bond fan of 35 years and Ian Fleming would be turning in his grave at the absolute mess and soap opera of the Craig films. Casino Royale is great, that's it. Quantum Of Solace - Turd. Sure, Skyfall is fun, but it has huge gaping plot holes. Spectre - This is when it went right off the rails with the horrendous storytelling. They just had to shoehorn the spectre organisation into the backstory, making Le Chiffre, Silva etc all sub-bosses and bit players to Blofeld and Spectre. Just terrible. AND they had to make Blofeld Bond's f*cking brother! Pathetic.
      I didn't buy for a second that Bond and Madeleine were madly in love (terrible chemistry). Especially after everything with Vesper Lynd.
      No Time To Die - Terrible villain. His plot made no sense. He was barely in the movie. He's obsessed with Madeleine.. then he's not. Bond dies. Hot mess.
      Craig had ONE great movie. That's it.

    Great video Mike even though we have different taste when it comes to Bond. I have always felt it was very difficult to rank all the Bond Movies, particularly because the worst ones I dont really feel for re-watching. And some of them I just find so boring to be honest. But luckily the best one I can watch over and over and almost never get tired of them. My list also have some controversial choices- I am not a big fan of the Brosnan era, so I dont have much love for Goldeneye like many others- So my list would look like this:
    1. Casino Royale
    2. Dr. No
    3. From Russia with Love
    4. On Her Majesty's Secret Service
    5. No Time to Die
    6. Skyfall
    7. The Spy Who Loved Me
    8. License to Kill
    9. Thunderball
    10. The Living Daylights
    11. Goldfinger
    12. You Only Live Twice
    13. Moonraker
    14. Diamonds Are Forever
    15. The Man with the Golden Gun
    16. Die Another Day
    17. A View to a kill
    18. Goldeneye
    19. For Your Eyes Only
    20. Tomorrow Never Dies
    21. Octopussy
    22. The World Is Not Enough
    23. Spectre
    24. Quantum of Solace
    25. Live and Let Die.
    By the way even though I find Moonraker to be an entertaining mess, the horror sequence you are mentioning Mike with the dogs is one of my favorite scenes in the whole Bond series. The John Barry score in the scene is beautifully haunting.

    Skyfall was my favorite when I first saw it, at a time when I'd only seen a fraction of the Bond titles. Then my wife and I did a full watch-through of the series from beginning to end, and once the smoke had cleared, Skyfall was still my favorite. (OHMSS and Casino Royale are a close second and third.)

    A special list for sure. I’m not going to say anything negative. My list would probably be «special» as well. I do agree with some of your picks/choices. I find «You only live twice» a top Bond as well. You have put «Moonraker» very high.. No comment.. :) On my list the «surprise» would be «The man with the golden gun». I think I love that one because it was one of the first I saw, and it fits a young boy.. I was 12 when I saw it, and to me then it was special. I’ve always liked Roger Moore. «The spy who loved me» is the top, and «On her Majesty’s secret service» is special as well. The Craig movies are not «English» enough, but very «American». It should be British with style and class.

    Id heard that titbit about Bresson liking Bond. but is was not Godfinger. I think For your Eyes only was mentioned - and the reason being was that he liked the flow of Images (being Bresson). Which brings me to one I ranked even higher than yours: The Quantum of Solace. Did not stick with me at first but now I love it. The action was kinetic but not as hard to understand as you reckon and, though it was an addendum to Casino Royale, on subsequent viewings I liked it loads more; forgetting that. I reckon Bresson, might, possibly, too. But who knows with these geniuses? I always seem to get it wrong.

    Sorry, but I take Bond seriously and have done since I saw Dr No on TV in the Seventies aged 7 or something. So Dr No and From Russia with Love top two. After that the directors don’t get the old world style and snobbishness. Goldfinger is of course great, but totally spoilt by Connery’s three piece suit (way too fashionable and arriviste) and one-piece towelling outfit. OHMSS is even better, but again spoiled by fashion. All the others are terrible.
    Now: Bresson! You weren’t kidding, I looked it up. Love Bresson’s movies to bits, and now I love Bresson himself. But bombshell (from Wki): French filmmaker Robert Bresson admired For Your Eyes Only "It filled me with wonder because of its cinematographic writing ... if I could have seen it twice in a row and again the next day, I would have done."[87][88] Elsewhere Bresson said he also loved the film's ski chase.[89].

      Thanks, Tim. I think you're right about No Time To Die. I guess I was swept away by the beautiful cinematography and impressive action set pieces - so shallow! I'm not as invested in Bond as Who, so maybe I wasn't as upset. But the death of Bond was botched and totally unnecessary.

      Thanks for the reply. I've only just found your channel and I'm looking forward to watching many of the videos. Not often you find Fighting Fantasy, Doctor Who and the films of Powell and Pressburger in the same place. Lovely stuff!

    What happened to Pierce Brosnan? He was great in The Long Good Friday. Really quite menacing. By the 90s, he had turned into...meh.
    The first half of For Your Eyes Only is brilliant. Never watch the second half.
    Diamonds Are Forever and The Spy Who Loved Me are too low. Both flawed but too many good scenes. "Pyramids!"

      Brosnan is quite good in Polanski's The Ghost.
