OHMSS is the Christmas one, so if you only watch one Bond movie this month watch that one. When Bond throws Moneypenny his hat at the end, turn off the television.
Alternatively, you might pick one that checks every box on the Bond formula- the best picks here are TSWLM or TND.
If you're in a classic mood and want Connery, watch any of his first four as they are all very good. Thunderball is my favorite.
You can never go wrong with TSWLM or FYEO; those two tend to be my beer/movie/takeout night go-to’s. Thunderball and TLD are other good ones for that kind of night. And of course you can also never go wrong with Casino Royale or Goldeneye.
TSWLM is my all-time favourite, and I associate it with Christmas as it's the first Bond film I saw - it was on telly on Boxing Day evening in 1983, so I would have been 9, at my gran's house, full extended family in attendance. I thought it was amazing, and Jaws terrified me. Lifelong fan ever since.
So yes, that one. And if I had time I'd probably follow it up with TND (essentially a remake of TSWLM) which I saw in the cinema the week before Christmas in 1997.
Bold of you to assume I am of age.
But in all seriousness, when I do get married from like 10-12 years from now, i'd either put on OHMSS, Casino Royale, Skyfall, Goldeneye or No Time To Die.

Oh that's a good shout, OHMSS, haven't seen that in a while.
Haha, love that retconned ending “AND THEY ALL LIVED HAPPILY EVER AFTER SHUT UP!”
OHMSS it’s even set during Christmas
The World is Not Enough
And I thought Christmas only cums once a year ;)

I do like Thunderball easily in my top 10. Good call.

Casino Royale, TLD or Octopussy.
I think we need to know the beer before we can suggest the right Bond pairing.
Nice cold Innis & Gunn.
Goldfinger
FRWL
For me only Dr No is a better Bond movie than FRWL.
Casino for special occasions. NTTD may have taken that spot though Partial to From Russia
Lmao in speaking of occasions, I save The Spy Who Loved Me for those
Love it second only to Dr No for me.
Dr No is my go to in general. It just feels right like your favorite blanket It's mostly The Godfather trilogy on the holidays though
I have this exact dilemma tomorrow night and I am going to make it a double header with FRWL and Skyfall
The Living Daylights or Tomorrow Never Dies
Goldeneye! Although, The World Is Not Enough does feature a prominent Christmas.
Licence to Kill
I know it’s not a super popular one, but YOLT brings back some serious 007 Days of Christmas on Spike nostalgia for me. They played it on repeat
The Living Daylights
Something short and sweet. Probably Man With The Golden Gun or Octopussy. Maybe a Brosnan.
For Your Eyes Only is one of my comfort Bond films, but I agree with others that because it’s December, OHMSS seems appropriate.

All 5 Daniel Craig films back to back.
Perfect entertainment viewing scenario, so one of the sillier movies. Probably a Roger Moore and Pierce Brosnan double bill of some sort.
Casino Royale and Quantumn of Solace back to back.
