it starred timothy dalton as the titular character and it had both great practical effects and great villains (joe don baker played an arms dealer and some stoic german dude was the muscle).

the opening music was by a-ha when they were big. it holds up as a really good song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aXM4eIoPZUU

if you're a young person and you grew up on that pierce brosnan guy in goldeneye or daniel "i'm mother loving stoic" craig, i'm sorry but you missed out.

It was pretty awesome. It had cello races and trucks falling out of airplanes. I don't know why the Dalton movies are so looked down upon.

the soviet airfield/mujahidin raid and subsequent homage in the Uncharted series...

it was right on the border of when productions would spring for practical effects like the scenes with the cello and the harrier RAF jet.

timothy dalton made 2 really good movies and poo poo went way downhill after that.

tld was actually one of my least favorite, it was p boring. i'd take all the moore films over it because at least they're campy-bad

on the other hand, license to kill is the best bond movie :getin:

License to Kill is my favorite also. I love the final sequence. Fighting atop an entire truck convoy on a dangerous road with air support. Should be in a video game.

Sorry, but Golden Eye was the best Timothy Dalton bond movie, followed by Living Daylights and then License to Kill.

e: If the studio that made bond movies didn't go tits up it would have been the Golden Eye story with Dalton playing 007 and Alan Rickman as 006... or the greatest bond movie ever made.

A view to a kill was the best bond movie, sorry op.

It had Duran Duran, grace Jones and Christopher walken so obviously the best.

Tld is a good move though and Timothy Dalton was the best bond imo.

Op is true. It also had the best fight scene because it was also one of the best stunts, not only in a Bond film, but any film:

None of your green screen bollocks going on there my friends. Those stunt dudes really were hanging out the arse of a C-130.

Props also to the milk bottle fight scene, because it at least showed agents other than Bond being halfway competent for a change.

I just remember a super-young Benecio Del Toro in License to Kill.

I am so convinced of this I thought it was the name of the thread.

Moonraker and live and let die are also awesome.

TLD has one of the best looking Bond Girls too, and honestly, I really dig that green Aston Martin.

Though Live and Let Die had Dr Quinn Medicine Woman in it.
