"...some of the best leading ladies Hollywood has on offer.

Actually, Pinewood Studios found most of their (early) bond girls outside of Hollywood, if I'm not mistaken.

IMHO:

Best Film - From Russia With Love

Best Bond - Connery

Best Bond Girl - Daniella Bianchi

The Man With The Golden Gun, I like this film because it transplants one of my favorite Western Film formulas(the fastest gun versus the other fastest gun) into the Spy genre. Also the theme song gets stuck in my head for days.

It's a tie!

Thunderball and You Live Twice.

I want my own Little Nellie.

[Tancred]

I would have to say The Spy Who Loved Me

Favorite Bond girl: Barbara Bach as Major Anya Amasova

But I also like:
Talisa Soto as Lupe Lamora in "Licence to Kill" (1989)
Izabella Scorupco as Natalya Simonova in "Golden Eye" (1995)
Maryam d'Abo as Kara Milovy in "The Living Daylights" (1987)
Carole Bouquet as Melina in "For Your Eyes Only" (1981)

Back in high school, I used to go over to a friend's house almost every weekend for pizza and a Bond movie. Seen each of them dozens of times. Thanks for the flashback!

Best films:
From Russia With Love
On Her Majesty's Secret Service
For Your Eyes Only
Goldfinger

Best Bond:
Sean Connery (no contest here)

Best girl:
Diana Rigg

Although I do like Carole Bouquet too

Best music score:
OHMSS
Thunderball
Living Daylights
(all by John Barry)

[D.P.Roberts]

Though I always loved "Goldfinger", it just didn't hold up well over time. Strangely, for me, the '70's-dated "Live and Let Die" does, and is my favorite.

Sean Connery

Daniella Bianchi
