The fan favorite of Moore's era (although arguably not his best film).

Life is not about the second chances. It's about a little mouse and his voyage to an exciting new land. That, my friend, is what life is.

Sir, do you have any Warrants?
I got their first CD, but you can't have it, motherfucker!

While camp, I liked it. Definitely feels like something Moore gave his all for.

^ Sad news.  Jaws was one of the most memorable Bond villains, and one of the few NOT to be killed.

This and For Your Eyes Only are Moore's best, definitely.

Avaitor

Moore was actually my mother's favorite Bond. She was alive for Connery's era, but I guess he didn't make as much of a connection for her.
