I am simultaneously shocked at both the short shrift and over-estimation Moonraker is given here. One part of me thinks it should be higher on the list, while the other part, in which I store my sense and good taste, says lower. Much lower.
Moonraker was out of this world!!!
I largely agree with your list, though I’d have You Only Live Twice at the top, if only for Connery’s amazing plastic surgery to make him look Japanese.
