    Looking at my list now, I wish I had found room for Sideways . . .

    Moonraker
    The World is Not Enough
    A View To A Kill
    Live and Let Die
    Never Say Never Again

    All of those are worse.

    Raiders of the Lost Ark
    Star Wars
    The Empire Strikes Back
    Batman Begins (yes, it is better than The Dark Knight, dammit)
    Bull Durham
    Shawshank Redemption
    The Usual Suspects
    Major League
    Blazing Saddles
    The Avengers

    Updated to include The Avengers. It's the only movie I considered for my list that I hadn't seen twice, but took care of that this evening with my wife and daughter, who had not seen it yet. Still a little slow in parts, but damn good overall. Bonus points for two things. One, my daughter now claims it is her favorite movie. Two is summed up in two words: "Puny god."

    OHMSS is awful because George Lazenby as Bond is awful. Only good part of the movie is Diana Rigg.

    That sounds like a good way to ruin two of the greatest movies ever.
