You think that malnourished anorexic actress Eva Green is better than Honor Blackman, Berenice Marlohe, Izabella Scoropcu, Denise Richards, Tanya Roberts, Ursula Andress, Rosamund Pike, Carey Lowell, Halle Berry and Olga Kurylenko? Seriously? You're mad. Yes I do. That's why I made the statement.
You're entitled to think that but Eva Green wouldn't even be in my top 10 Bond girls. Her offputting weird English accent is number one and the way she speaks like she's trying to talk through her pout is annoying. She didn't really do any fighting or physical stunts either apart from locking an elevator door. I like my Bond girls to actually do something other than pout like a fish.

You have 60 years of stunning women to choose from and you go and pick Eva Green.

Yes but you stated that Skyfall is your favourite I'm trying to understand why because the villain wasn't very threatening. I take it those Connery films you like take a back seat to the Craig ones? Well, I hope you're sitting because I actually thought Bardem did a great job and yes, as I said before, I rank SF and CR higher. Bardem's accent, fake teeth and toupee in Skyfall were tacky you could buy better makeup on eBay.

I have no hesitation calling it the best Bond movie. Happy Birthday, Casino Royale. Agreed! (And I've seen every Bond pic at the theater since 1973... Needless to say, I'm a long-time 007 fan.) Also, ever since CR, my wife stopped rolling her eyes at the Bond movies... She really digs them now -- especially the Craig films.

Casino is a very good Bond film I also wish I could say it was the best Bond film but it just isn't. It's got impressive action and Daniel Craig is built for action and he looked better here than in NTTD but apart from that it wasn't that good or "best Bond" good to me. I think other users here including the other males on this thread are more entranced by him walking out of the sea in his speedos than actual Bond films, or maybe they wish they were Vesper.

She really digs them now -- especially the Craig films. Why did she roll her eyes at them? She viewed Bond as a male wish-fulfillment cartoon character, a "superhero without a costume". She thought OHMSS was an improvement in story & character -- but that George Lazenby sucked. She liked the Dalton films, but Brosnan's tenure was too silly and a throwback to Roger Moore. To her, the Craig films made Bond seem much more human and that the female roles were substantially improved. (Her favorite Bond films are CR, SKYFALL and NTTD.)

Did your wife find Blofeld becoming a global terrorist because Bond stole his daddy too silly too? No disrespect to the woman but she needs to see beyond Craig's pecs that the Bond films haven't really changed all that much.

Just in time for Christmas (12/21 release date):
"Eon Productions, MGM, and Universal Pictures Home Entertainment have just officially set the final Daniel Craig James Bond film, No Time to Die, for release on Blu-ray, DVD, and 4K Ultra HD on 12/21. Both the Blu-ray and 4K discs will feature Dolby Atmos sound. The 4K disc will be a BD100 and will feature HDR10 high dynamic range. The 4K disc will also feature the exclusive (and terrific) 45-minute retrospective Being James Bond, which fans will know played on Apple TV a few weeks back in the lead-up to the film’s theatrical debut. Both the 4K and Blu-ray will also add 4 featurettes (including Anatomy of a Scene: Matera, Keeping It Real: The Action of No Time to Die, A Global Journey, and Designing Bond). It appears that there will also be exclusive Steelbook packaging and Gift Set SKUs available at select retailers."

Don’t be surprised if a 60th anniversary collection is released next year.
