I think I'm going to go with Thunderball, but On Her Majesty's Secret Service is pretty good too.

Robert Brownjohn should have done more title sequences.

Chief of Staff, 007's gone round the bend. Says someone's been trying to feed him a poisoned banana. Fellow's lost his nerve. Been in the hospital too long. Better call him home.

Robert Brownjohn's work for FRWL and GF are definitely among the best and most beautiful of the 007 opening titles.

Maurice Binder on the other hand was perhaps a bit over-rated, many of his opening titles are a bit kitschy, the ones from the 70s and 80s.

I agree that Thunderball is one of the best though, and of course Binder created the iconic gunbarrel intro.

My vote goes to You Only Live Twice because I feel that it is a perfect marriage of images with the sounds of the wonderful theme that is sung by Nancy Sinatra.

The re-make of Bruce Lee's Game of Death features a Bond-type opening sequence, with John Barry's title song.
YOLT is a favorite title, along with OHMSS -- of course, I'm partial to the songs, so that helps a lot.
You move very well for a dead man, Mister Bond

Kill him!
