I went ahead and watched Dr. No this week because it's the one that started it all, but vote in this poll to show me what Sean Connery Bond reactions you want to see! You are not limited to one vote on this poll, and I'm using this poll to see what movies you're interested in seeing a reaction to. Depending on the votes, I might watch a couple, or I might watch them all! Just a reminder that I'm planning on watching these movies at a slower pace, and I won't be watching these movies every week.

If Diamonds are Forever gets a lot of votes, I'll watch On Her Majesty's Secret Service (1969) with George Lazenby first since he only had the one Bond movie.

All of these are great but Goldfinger and Thunderball are my personal favorites of the bunch. I often get asked if I’m related to Sean Connery so if I’m in a good mood I play along and say he’s my great uncle and I spend my summers in Scotland in a castle

Alex Tan

Happy Thursday, Addie. I would personally recommend watching all of them, but take your time on doing so.

Randee Carreno

Happy Thursday, Addie! 😊 "Goldfinger" got my vote for this one. With "Thunderball" as my second pick. I've seen only bits and pieces of that one. Have a great day today! 😊

Randolph Tirazona

All of the above, but Russia and Goldfinger and Thunderball and... And... lol

Baldemort

Hey addie, do you still plan on giving Game of Thrones another shot at some point? Even if its not now but later?

Alexander George

I voted for all 5! If there is one that you may or may not need to see is "On Her Majesty's Secret Service"; although that movie is pretty important to see due to a couple of critical plot points that are referenced in later films; specifically a Roger Moore film.

Doug

I’m ok with all five of these honestly. Diamonds are Forever is probably the weakest one but even it’s not bad. 🤷‍♂️ (I think the worst Bond movies like Octopussy are all after Connery, you can’t go too wrong with the Connery ones though.)

Kyle Brandon Sanger

This is difficult, if I had to choose, watch 'From Russia with Love', 'Gold Finger', and 'Thunderball', in my opinion. 'On Her Majesty's Secret Service' is a fan favorite, so I'll recommend it.

I am not really a fan of james bond movies from these decades but Addie makes everything fun.

I would recommend, at the minimum for James Bond, to watch all of the Connery and Lazenby movies in release order for the following reasons: 1) The franchise did not find it's footing right away, so it will be good for you to get a sense of how it developed 2) There is an overall story that develops across the movies, and if you skip some, you will miss out on that story. I think you can guess what it is about from the info that you got out of "Dr. No". 3) There are some very iconic scenes and characters that have worked their way into pop culture, especially henchmen, henchwomen, and "Bond girls" that you will miss if you skip some of the movies. 4) While women are often portrayed as simply something for Bond to chase after, from a younger person's perspective, I think you should see the aspect of the films that often gets overlooked in the sexy noise: that the films were in some ways very societally ahead of their times, with women in skilled professional roles like pilots, scientists, martial artists, and avengers of family vendetta. There are even some rainbow pride characters, if you pick up the hints from a 1960's/1970's perspective. 5) You already saw the Daniel Craig movies, which drew heavily from the early Connery stories, not just small homages, but in some cases whole scenes or even whole sub-plots at specific situations and locations. If you skip some movies, you will miss recognizing why those parts of the Craig films were big for long-time Bond fans. 6) You have said that you are watching these partly as prep for watching "Austin Powers". That franchise is essentially one big spoof drawing on _all_ of the Connery and Lazenby films, so skipping some will short-change you on the "Austin Powers" experience. As an aside, if you are planing on watching the "Austin Powers" movies, then I would also suggest watching the "Johnny English" and "Kingsman" movies, as well as the movies based on books by another British WW2 veteran Alistair MacLean, which have the bonus of surprising you with actors that you know from much later in their careers: "The Guns of Navarone" (1961) "Ice Station Zebra" (1968) "Where Eagles Dare" (1968) "Breakheart Pass" (1975) "Force 10 From Navarone" (1978)

watch them all, slow pace is fine with me

Josh

Hey Addie, I really hope that you decide to take the extra time and watch the whole series in release order, even if it's at a slow pace. I know you did the poll, but cherry picking a few is almost worse than not watching them at all. Yes, some are better or worse than others, but it really is an iconic series that has endured for decades and it's worth seeing how it evolved. Plus, it's only 20 movies not counting Craig so it's not like it goes on forever. And it's a great series to have archived in your library for future patrons here and on YT to discover and enjoy. Just my two cents! :)

Gary Brown

Addie, I know that Thunderball only 16% but it's my favorite Connery Bond. It's next level.

Gary Brown

She said she had a panic attack with it, so i highly doubt it

JAKH

And a significant sub-plot (not just one scene) that is copied whole by one of the Craig films

Al Mason

Large portions of Goldfinger were filmed in my home state.

"Each and every movie is a Universe Unto it's own. They all should be experienced."

Justin Charlton

On Her Majesty's Secret Service is highly underrated in my opinion. I think it is one of the few movies in the series, at least during this era, that showed the he is still a fallible human. George was always on a hiding to nothing being the first 'non-Sean Connery' James Bond in the canon movies and a lot of the criticism of the movie seems to be more about that than the shortcomings of the movie or George's portrayal. Neither are perfect of course, but there are quite a few that are worse in the series including one in the Daniel Craig era that is the only one in the series I would rate as a 'Nope, never again' watch. FYI, I should note that I could be a little biased. George is an Australian like me so it might have a little something to do with it, maybe... :)

Randolph Tirazona

Recommendation: "Courage Under Fire" (1996) staring: Denzel Washington, Meg Ryan, Matt Damon, Lou Diamond Phillips.
