I came home from work assuming this would be over. Which I guess it basically is. The fat lady is warming up backstage.

Damn...this ain't over yet? I sense a very intense yet incredibly short midnight gangbang about to hit.

The only mystery now is, what order do the final three end up in?

Traditionally, Knockouts are done when three are left. So it ends with g-dude.

1. GOLDFINGER [30]
2. (Tie) FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE [28]
CASINO ROYALE [28]

However, since The Gayest set up this game, I think he should make the final call.

Sorry to be away, but yes, I'll call this over. A final shoot out between those three would never end. Although I am shocked to see From Russia With Love there.

Here's you rank order.

1. Goldfinger
2 (tie). From Russia, With Love
2. Casino Royale
4. On Her Majesty's Secret Service
5. Goldeneye
6. The Living Daylights
7. Dr. No
8. License to Kill
9. You Only Live Twice
10. For Your Eyes Only
11. The Spy Who Loved Me
12. Thunderball
13. Tomorrow Never Dies
14. Live and Let Die
15. The World is Not Enough
16. The Man With the Golden Gun
17. Moonraker
18. Octopussy
19. A View To a Kill
20. Die Another Day
21. Diamonds Are Forever

Sean Connery has the most popular and the least popular

Roger Moore's best-For Your Eyes Only, coming in at ten

Timothy Dalton takes 6 and 8, which is both surprisingly high and not high enough

I was surprised by the toleration of The World is Not Enough and Octpussy, as well as the continued regard for Dr. No.

Whats interesting is that all Bonds exist everywhere on the rank order, except Moore who had the most movies to pick from. Brosnan's Goldeneye fought hard while Die Another Day is apparently loathed (cause of Halle, I believe, and maybe the invisible car). Also-five of the top ten are debut films, with Moore the only one left out. From this I intuit you can expect some serious pieces of shit from Daniel Craig in the future.

Well, now we have a definative list.

I have to say that this is the first knockout's results that I have no real problem with. I'd move a few of them up or down a few notches (Moonraker certainly deserves to be lower), but in general, I'd say it works for me. The final top three is certainly what I would have picked on my own.

No way Diamonds should be dead last. It's highly entertaining and a better "campy Bond" than most of the Roger Moores.

That's the thing with Knockouts...some early kills are simply stategic and have little bearing on actual quality. It's kind of like SURVIVOR that way.

In the Comedy Knockout, I rather childishly knocked out PLANES, TRAINS & AUTOMOBILES (a film I really love) early as retaliation for Del Griffith voting down some of my favorites earlier. I knew PTA would be a power title if allowed to build votes, so it had to be taken out while it was still weak.

Having said all of that, DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER is still pretty close to where it deserves to be.

A blind devotion to Connery should not blind us Mr. Wint and Mr. Kidd, the homsexual hitmen.
