Bond In The 80's: Oscars and Razzies
Best Film: Never Say Never Again
Worst Film: Octopussy
Best Performance by an Actor in a James Bond role: Sean Connery, Never Say Never Again
Worst Performance by an Actor in a James Bond role: Roger Moore, View To A Kill
Best Performance by a Actress in a Main Bond Girl Role: Maryam D'Abo, Living Daylights
Worst Performance by an Actress In a Main Bond Girl Role: Carey Lowell, License To Kill
Best Main Villain: Christopher Walken, View To A Kill
Worst Main Villain: Joe Don Baker, Living Daylights (I've seen GI Joe dolls that have made for more menacing military figures)
Best Actor in a Supporting Role: John Rhys-Davies, Living Daylights
Worst Actor In A Supporting Role: The guy playing Dennis Thatcher in For Your Eyes Only (just because you lady's Prime Minister doesn't mean you have to let her push you around)
Best Actress In A Supporting Role: Grace Jones, A View To A Kill
Worst Actress In A Supporting Role: Holly Lynn-Johnson, For Your Eyes Only (Pedophilia is evil but a teenage girl being sexually attracted to a middle-aged man is just as creepy)
Best Line: (from License To Kill)
Sanchez: You could have had everything but you gave it all up! Why?
Bond: (Takes out lighter given to him by his friend's murdered wife) THIS! (uses lighter to set Sanchez on fire)
Worst Line: The one in View To A Kill establishing Christopher Walken's character to be a product of a Concentration Camp experiment. Did we really need to bring the Holocaust into a 007 film? The film doesn't even have anything to do with Germany, it's about a guy trying to destroy Silicon Valley in California.
Best Stunt: Lassoing the drug dealer's plane in License To Kill
Lamest Stunt: Bond swinging through the vines in Octopussy (complete with an inexcusably cheesy Tarzan yell)
Best Death: (from For Your Eyes Only) A bad guy tries to break into Bond's car, which has a "burglar protected" sticker. When the bad guy smashes the driver side window, the car explodes.
Lamest Death: A female assassin has 007 right where she wants him in Never Say Never Again but instead of just shooting him, she makes him right on paper that she was his greatest lover. Naturally this gives enough time for Bond to eliminate her (or it might have been Felix that killed her). I've heard of the Talking Killer but the Literary Agent Killer?
Best Bond Theme: Sheena Easton, For Your Eyes Only
Worst Bond Theme: A-Ha, The Living Daylights (it's actually an awesome song but just slightly less awesome than the others. The fact that it's the worse means the 80's was a really good time for music)
Worst Timing: A killer video game in Never Say Never Again? The public didn't want to play video games why would they want to go to the cinema and watch people play video games? It's somewhat ironic that a Video Game almost killed Bond in 1983 when the general public in 1983 almost killed video games for good.
Biggest Groaner: Bond using the Alias "John Stock" in A View To A Kill. Get it? Stocks and Bonds? Hardy freakin' har,
Biggest Disappointment: Bond goes to San Francisco in 1985 and doesn't meet Bill Walsh or Joe Montana,
