You didn't think YOLT was at all cheesy and silly Wolf Kanno? Yes nothing tops Moore's Tarzan yell in Octopussy, but YOLT has it's moments- Bond becoming Japanese being one of the stupidest moments in the series. What about the hallowed-out volcano! Okay it's an awesome lair, but still a bit preposterous like the Moore films you didn't like.


Also I don't think the Moore films got worse as they went along, but they go- Good film, bad film, good film, bad film etc.

Live and Let Die- Good albeit silly film.
TMWTGG- It is very memorable but so stupid.
TSWLM- One of the very best.
Moonraker- Fun but again stupid. That double taking pigeon is unforgivable.
For Your Eyes Only- Some call it too serious and label it as dull and forgettable, but I think it's a gripping spy thriller.
Octopussy- No, no, NO! Tarzan yell, Bond dressed as a gorilla, Bond dressed as a clown, bond in the alligator submarine... wtf is going on here?!
A View To A Kill- Okay this isn't much better. Great theme tune however.

I am one of the few people that seem to like The World Is Not Enough. It's nowhere near as bad as everyone says. Electra King is one of the most fascinating of all of 007's foes, the plot is complex and is one of those rare Bond's where both James and M become emotionally involved in the story which I liked. Also the opening boat chase is incredible. I think it's very underrated. Not as good as his first two, but a different class to the likes of Die Another Day, Diamonds Are Forever and Octopussy. Okay Denise Richards as a nuclear scientist was bad, but Christmas Jones is not the worst Bond girl ever, that dubious honour would have to go to either Tanya Roberts' Stacy Sutton from AVTAK or Halle Berry's Jinx.

Speaking of underrated the Dalton films are great! I can see your point on Dalton not being too likeable, but you could argue that no other actor has come closer to Ian Fleming's 007 as well as Timothy did. Yes in LTK he isn't too likeable, but I felt he had a lot of charisma in The Living Daylights. Also the stunt-work in these two, TLD especially is phenomenal. I think people just weren't ready for this kind of Bond film until Daniel Craig took over.
