So who likes the Bond movies? You know, as a modern woman you wouldn't think I would like them because, well, they are kind of sexist at times. But I can't help it. I do.

So who IS your favorite Bond? Sean? Roger? Daniel? etc....

Favorite Bond themes?

Favorite Bond movie?

Mine are very weird and not in line with the popular census.

My favorite Bond was is an always will be Roger Moore! I just feel Ian Fleming had him in mind when he wrote it (even if he didn't know it at the time winky).

Roger was smooth, handsome, funny, and quite dashing.

Favorite Themes.. eesh this is hard but my top that I like to listen to most often

The original Dr No orchestral arrangement
Diamonds Are Forever Shirley Bassey
Goldfinger with Shirley Bassey
Live and Let Die (stop it Steve)
A View to a Kill (I just think DD got the Bond feel better than most of the pop crowdFavorite )
Golden Eye

Favorite Bond Movie? I have a tendency to watch Live and Let Die a lot. Roger is a riot in that one. Upon being chased in a car down stairs by the bad guys "I just love a ride in the country. Don't you my dear?"

it was, in fairness, awful

Best theme was Goldeneye. I still don't know why Tina Turner didn't get a look in sooner.

I am torn between Daniel Craig & Pierce Brosnan on best Bond though. I know it's prolly heresy to not pick Shawn Canary.

Best movie...mmmmmm.... Skyfall blew me away to be honest. I have it on blu ray & I can spin past the dreadful theme song so it doesn't ruin it for me.

Best film is OHMSS, great action and it's a heartbreaker.
Best music - any of the John Barry marches, I absolutely love the Propellerheads thing from a few years ago

Best Bond is tough - the first film of each one is always the best for that actor except for Connery - Russia is his best.

Hard to have a favourite actor but Roger and Brosnan have some of the weakest films :/

I have a hard time dissing her because she's a child. There are things I don't like (she seems to have started frying away her brain cells at a very early age, at least she always looks high), but I do like the fact she wears baggy clothing because she doesn't want people to comment on her body. Not many females who are popular in music have the gonads to do that.

All that aside, I listened to her Bond theme yesterday and it's buh-or-ing.

fave theme
Dr. No
Live and Let Die
A View to a Kill
The Living Daylights
Die Another Day

I really love James Bond movies, the only little thing i don't like is when it wants to be funny and it's just completely stupid, the worst being probably the helicopter drop-off at the beginning of For Your Eyes Only (also the american sheriff, stuff like that).
That's why i like Daniel Craig but he's maybe too dark.

I don't like her music. And I wish my non Goth friends would stop calling her a Goth. She's not an effing Goth. And yes. Most boring Bond theme yet. ugh
