For Your Eyes Only worst bond movie?

007 freak · Jan 27th, 2007, 06:02 PM

I cant decide which one to tell people when they ask me what do you think is the worst bond movie?

For Your Eyes Only
The beggining of the movie was pretty much the only good thing in the movie? I mean the action was terrible the story line was horrible this was probbaly the most boring bond movie ever. !!!!!!

Die Another Day the them song was pretty much the only good thing in the
movie. Same as For Your Eyes Only .Horrible acting terrible action scenes
stupid story. It isnt as bad as For Your Eyes Only but is still very boring. Not a goood way for Brosnan to end his bond carrer!!!!

So I just want you guys to tell me which is worst Die Another Day or For Your Eyes Only!!!!

First of all:
The first few times I saw For Your Eyes Only I agree, I thought it was terrible. But the more I watched it, the more i realized that it is actually excellent. What it is, is the Casino Royale (2006) of its time. There were a lot of die hard Bond fans angry over how Moonraker was too unrealistic and, literaly, out of this world, so they made FYEO, a more realistic, more down to Earth movie, that actually has aeveryhting a Bond movie has (and some more). There's the evil henchmen (Loque and Kreigler), the beautiful girl who aslo kills people, and through it all Bond maanges to get the world closer to complete detente. Also, it has the whole, 'who's good, I don't know who to trust' thing going on that most Bond mvoies don't have. It has some excellent ski scenes and brings back some of Fleming's work that had gone unused in the past (like the boat scene that was written in Live and Let Die). And I'm not sure why, but I love how a parrot is the clue to finding Kristatos at the end. I think the more you watch the better that movie gets.

So to answer your question, Die Another Day is worse. DAD does have some good action, but it's plot is too weak, and once again (as in MR) everything is too extravegent, like an invisible car. I have to admit, once again the more I watch DAD the more I like it, but IMO it is still the worst Bond movie, while FYEO is somewhere in the range of 7th to 11th best.

Personally I have to go with Die Another Day. Pure crap.

007 freak · Jan 28th, 2007, 02:47 PM

I made up my mind after reading you guys comments and I have to agree Die Another Day is pure c**p. I watched For Your Eyes Only again and I have to agree it does have some good points. But it still is in my top 10 worst bond movies.

I too found it enjoyable
columbo was a great allie
and i thought the fact that bond didnt kill the bad guy for once was pretty cool

You make it sound like Bond always kills the villain.

FRWL: Tania kills Klebb
TB: Domino kills Largo
FYEO: Melina kills Kristatos
CR: Mr. White kills Le Chiffre

I do have to agree about Colombo; he's one of the best characters in the entire series, I think.

Mr.Bond220 · Mar 28th, 2007, 08:19 PM

yea great character.

For Your Eyes Only is forgettable for the most part but it was the first time you saw the Bond song singer (Sheena Easton) in the opening credits and Lynn Holly Johnson is pretty hot.

Never Say Never Again was probably worse although I know it is not an official film. I did like Klaus Maria Brandauer's evil "perhaps I didn't explain" comment in the video game fight between he and Bond but as a remake it paled next to the original Thunderball. Claudine Auger really had it over Kim Basinger.

FYEO is the best of the Roger Moore films, and ranks at the top with "From Russia With Love", "Thunderball", and OHMSS.

DAD is the worst, with "Moonraker" close behind it.
