A lot of people talk about the different James Bond actors and like to compare each and every aspect. So with the most recent James Bond film viewings, I decided it was time to compile a list. The Ultimate James Bond list for everyone that has ever wondered about which 007 has bedded the most women to who kills the most. Best part about it all is that once the list is complete, everyone will be able to easily compare every part of this list to the different films, actors and across generations.
Below you will find the list. 12 titles in total and each belonging to a different subject matter. A brief description beside each title will clue you in on the subject matter in case the titles themselves throw you off.
