Difficult one this, as they are both equally abysmal, and if it wasn't for the existence of DAD, then they would both be fighting for bottom place.

If I have to choose between one piece of crap and another, then I guess it would have to be NSNA.

Although I don't give it much hope, against the wildly over rated GoldenEye, I'm gonna go with the highly under rated Octopussy.

I have big problem with OP. The film is full of decent scenes, but dramatically lacks the feeling of consistency. It’s comical (sometimes even silly) in one second while deadly serious in another, it has the longest (and really great) pre-title sequence in the series history, which has nothing to do with the rest of the film. What’s more OP contains a couple of scenes that I really can’t stand. It’s Tarzan yell of course, but even worse are Octopussy’s girls storming Khamal’s palace and Q flying in baloon with Union Jack.

GE on the other hand, is the film without major flaws, successful Pierce Brosnan's debut. However, he wasn’t (which is obvious) as comfortable in the role as Sir Roger in OP. I’m not complaining, he was really fine, but not in comparison with the old professional. So, because of Sir Roger’s performance my vote goes to OP.

- You don't. And that's the main problem.
