What one sequence best epitomizes James Bond for you?

What one sequence best epitomizes James Bond for you?

I was introduced to Bond via "For Your Eyes Only" on videocasette a year before I saw "Octopussy" in the theater, so the Moore era will always influence my take on the character. But, IMO, the best iteration of this version of Bond is in the early Brosnan era. Bond for me isn't the character in the novels, or the grittier versions. Bond for me is more superhuman and more tongue-in-cheek, even in his more grounded outings. Brosnan has all the charm of Roger and the physicality to credibly pull off the rough stuff.

I was twenty-three when I saw "Tomorrow Never Dies" in the theater, and watching that pre-title sequence made me feel like a kid again. That's the sequence that most epitomizes Bond to me.

Which one is it for you?

"Tomorrow Never Dies" pre-title
