This is not a marathon to leap into without any training. If you're feeling particularly completist you can add Casino Royale (1967) between Thunderball and You Only Live Twice, and Never Say Never Again (1983) between Octopussy and A View To A Kill.
How to watch the James Bond moves in order: This is the front-to-back vanilla version of the Bond ordering. Surely 'dunno who you are pal' would be the usual reaction.Īnyway! Anyway.
The reboot with Casino Royale causes a bit of a palaver with the continuity, as we see Craig's Bond get his 00 rank for the first time by executing a traitor in Prague, and meet Ernst Stavro Blofeld, Eve Moneypenny and the rest of the MI6 caper crew too.īut Craig's Bond also had Timothy Dalton's Aston Martin V8 Vantage and Connery's DB5, and the MI6 building had pictures of not just Judi Dench's M but Robert Brown's too, who appeared in four films across the Roger Moore and Timothy Dalton.Īnd! There was that odd bit in Spectre where Blofeld introduces himself as Blofeld and Bond looks all shocked and it's a big thing, but he's never met the guy before. But it's not exactly that straightforward. Yes, obviously, you can watch them in chronological order from Sean Connery's debut in Dr No in 1962 right through to Daniel Craig's missile-assisted farewell in No Time To Die. Watching the James Bond films in the right order is a trickier proposition than it sounds.
