I never wanted to do this. The whole reason I posted these articles chronologically in the first place was to avoid this Sophie’s Choice situation. But, at the end of the day, much like Bond himself, I don’t like to back down from a challenge. Most of the work I did for these involved rereading Ian Fleming’s novels, watching (sometimes for the first time) the movies, sitting through endless hours of special features, attending a college course on Bond and reading James Chapman’s Licence to Thrill. So, here’s my ranking of the Eon Bond movies from best to worst. This list is purely my opinion and you are entitled to disagree even though you’re wrong.

By day, Marisa Carpico stresses over every detail of America’s election system. By night, she becomes a pop culture and celebrity obsessive. Whether it’s movies, TV or music, she watches and listens to it all so you don’t have to. You can find her risking her life by reading comic books while walking down the crowded streets of New York City, having inappropriate emotional reactions at her iPad screen while riding the subway or occasionally letting her love of a band convince her to stand for hours on end in one of the city’s many purgatorial concert spaces. You can follow her on Twitter to read her insightful social commentary or more likely complain about how cold it is at @MarisaCarpico.
