you guys want a bad 007 movie?! try Live and Let Die. the only redeeming part was Baron Semidi.And Moonraker is by far my favorite film of the entire series....yes Roger Moore is the worst of the bonds moonraker has: lasers.space. lasers in space.
I liked Live and Let Die actually.....I mean it's not great or anything.....but
it has...
1. An extremely hot looking Jane Seymour.
2. Yaphet Kotto as a villain
3. Bond hanging in a all black bar in Harlem {priceless!!}
4. Some okay villains in Tee-Hee and Baron Samedi.

Do people count Never Say Never Again as part of the Bond canon? I don't, because it's not an 'official' Bond movie and it's really just a remake of Thunderball.
I don't, becaue it is a remake a.......still I did enjoy Never Say Never Again. It was good to see Connery again as Bond.

One other thing that always annoyed me about the Bond films was that they filmed the books in entirely the wrong order, totally destroying continuity. The most egregious example is in On Her Majesty's Secret Service, where the entire plot hinges on Blofeld not recognising Bond - even though they had met in the previous film, You Only Live Twice.
Continuity is not one of the James Bond series strong points. Essentially these movies are done in a vacuum, oblivous to the other movies. Only rarely do you get continuity in the James Bond Series...
When you think about.......how could Blofelt have NOT known what Bond looks like????? I mean this was the spy that defeated him several times!!!! You would think he would have a picture file on the guy????
It;s like Donald Rumsfield not knowing what Osama Bin Ladin looks like, even though they never met......................................mmmm.......maybe that's a bad example...... {actually they probably have met...
}
But you get my gist..
