(The best of the Moore films)
The worst of the title songs?
The Best
- Goldfinger
- Thunderball
- You Only Live Twice
Another coincidence? They all star the best, and only Bond, Sean Connery.
I agree on Thunderball and You Only Live Twice but I've never been a much of a fan of Goldfinger due to problems I have with the plot. (Odd, I know, to have plot-based problems with a Bond film, but it is the case.) I also think Dr. No is great and From Russia with Love is very good.
All of that said, while very different, I also think Daniel Craig has been a great Bond and, in particular, his first outing in Casino Royale I thought was exceptional.
Now, judging the films by their other merits, it is hard to argue with 29yo Diana Rigg or 23yo Jane Seymour.
I'm sorry, I wasn't clear I was listing the best title songs. The best Bond is Goldfinger even if it makes no sense that he shows the mob men the plan and then kills them all.
