In a poll of "All-time greatest movies?" I'd be shocked if it wasn't #1. - JaxSean Nov 18, 07:26 12
- With the normal american who's not a complete OMG Fanboy of something recent? - Will Hunting Nov 18, 07:28 11
  - Like I said, depends on who you poll. (the "doesn't it always?" nm) - JaxSean Nov 18, 07:31 10
    - I'm sure Maxium Magazine readers poll wouldn't have it very high -- nm - The Calico Cat Coalition Nov 18, 07:32 9
      - The newest issue ranks the current Bond girl as the "Hottest Ever." - JaxSean Nov 18, 07:39 8
        
        I do hope Ursula Andress kicks their asses. -- nm - Will Hunting Nov 18, 07:45 1
        
        Pfft. The discussion begins and ends with Claudine Auger. Andress wouldn't make my top 10 -- nm - Roger More Nov 18, 07:49

        It wouldn't sell many issues if it said "Third Hottest Bond Girl" -- nm - loosilu Nov 18, 07:43 1
        
        I don't remember if it said it on the cover. - JaxSean Nov 18, 07:45
        
        Well, I've seen most Bond films and honestly, I like the current ones best...then Connery next. -- nm - The Calico Cat Coalition Nov 18, 07:42 2

        Well, I'd take the current women too...got no flowers for your gun, no hippie chicks -- nm - The Calico Cat Coalition Nov 18, 07:47
Kane is still #1 in my book...not only for breaking new ground, but also because of the story...worthy of being called great literature - The Calico Cat Coalition Nov 18, 07:25 3
- It's the blueprint of great film, that's for sure. -- nm - JaxSean Nov 18, 07:27 2
  - Over-rated! - kelly Nov 18, 07:31 1
    - No, it really isn't. - JaxSean Nov 18, 07:41

    - I think you will enjoy Kane a lot. And bet after watching then reading about it and rewatching, you will find so much there. -- nm - The Calico Cat Coalition Nov 18, 07:37
- you haven't seen it? no need to wait. -- nm - loosilu Nov 18, 07:27
