I don't think the Dalton films were strong, but he is a very underrated Bond. Probably on par with Craig. Roger Moore's Bond was fine for it's time, but it's surprising how much Pierce Brosnan's films have dated, as they all seemed great when they came out.

As far as the list goes, I'd have TMWTGG higher, mainly due to Christopher Lee's GOAT villain Scaramanger. OHMSS definitely top 3. Not sure how Casino Royale can be so polarized against QoS, there isn't that much difference between them. Moonraker obviously WOAT.

I liked the Roger Moore ones best, as they were obviously tongue in cheek and made little to no attempt to present such absurd storylines as realism.

Always always hated the Brosnan Bond, but similarly thought Dalton was underrated.

And Roger Moore WBOAT (worst Bond of all times)

I think that is the key to a good James Bond movie. Casino Royal and a couple of Skyfall action scenes reminded me of that, but the other 2 of the daneil craig ones were just plain bad. Although I don't hate him as Bond

Must cast Idris Elba as the next bond if he wants it.

Goldeneye yeah, but i remember thinking that a couple of them were pretty mediocre at the time

not his fault though

Lol at holding the ball for 26s. Mig really upping his game in finding new ways to cost us goals.

Yea Brosnan clearly with the weakest Bond catalogue overall. I grew up watching Moore so nostalgia probably overrates him to me.

Few months too late but at least it's done and he's joining a team pushing for promotion. Should get gametime ahead of Zamora at least

Nah, I used to be all for it after watching The Wire and Luther but I've gone right off him after seeing him in a few movies.


Christian Bale would be my number 1 pick. He'd take Bond to a whole new level.
11-26-2015 , 08:20 PM
Fassbender would be my shout for Bond. lol at Idris Elba.

I find a good middle ground to be ATH-ANC9's which is what I use for traveling.
Yeh the sound quality on bose really isn't that great - I don't know how they got a reputation as having great sound quality. I've found that their lack of sound quality when traveling is more than made up for with their phenomenal sound cancelling. The drone of the engine is the nut low, no point having great sound quality if that's all you hear!

It's worthwhile doing this test - http://lifehacker.com/5903625/mp3-or...with-this-test

Download the software and do the test to see if it's worth while getting a good/great pair of earphone/headset. Also get your ears tested before making the commitment on a great pair.

There is no point spending hundreds of pounds on a audio stuff when you physically cannot benefit from it.

I liked the wire but just couldn't get into luther, I started to watch the first ep but just couldn't get into it.

Agree, Bale would be a great choice!

About time these billionaires spent their money on the GOAT rather than a jumbo jet!

Would love to see Messi come to England for any team other than Man U.

I had a nightmare a few weeks ago it was transfer deadline day and with minutes left in the window and out of nowhere Man U signed Messi and Ronaldo.

Never been so relieved to wake up in my life.

@kingweed
Do yourself a favour and try getting started on Luther again. It's not the GOAT, but thoroughly enjoyable TV. New season coming out soon.

And I still think Elba would make a great Bond. He's mailed it in, in a few, but that's wallet padding films, methinks.

Also agree wrt Bose, but would probably recommend ATH-ANC9's over QC's to anyone that wasn't already invested in this or that. At least for my taste that works better. I mostly fly trans-Atlantic these days and fortunately, I've gotten really good at sleeping so I don't get much use out of the headphones for that anymore.

I'll put it on the iPad, I'm going to Australia in a few days so that'll occupy me for a few hours - hopefully. I'm struggling to find stuff to watch. Ended up getting masters of sex (seriously) and mom (chuck Lorre) but have already watched a few eps if that!

And you lucky bugger, just cannot sleep on planes! I just cannot settle!

Taken a lot of practice -- and some cheating. I'll usually take a couple of Benadryl about 30 minutes before takeoff and then just settle in to sleep more or less immediately.
But being in Economy+ or better really helps, just because there's fewer people , less noise and more incline. I usually fly redeye so not sleeping isn't an option and I'd go prescription sleep meds if I had to.

Kingweed - get some valium. Get on the plane, have the meal and a couple of beers, with the second beer drop the valium and miss out half the flight.

Thank me later.

Tom Hardy the best pick for next Bond.

Brosnan is a weird one in hindsight. The franchise was on it's ass after the 80's efforts, and he did manage to update it and put it back to the top of the box office, so deserves some credit for that.

Thinking about it, those films did have the WOAT Bond girls. Terri Hatcher and Denise Richards were particularly bad. Plus, too many hapless villains (Robbie Coltraine, Famke Jansen, Goldie).

Plus, WOAT theme songs.

Watched "Legend" a couple weeks back...it is utter ****e. Also I can't really picture Tom Hardy spitting funny one liner comebacks Bond style...maybe mumbling them
