↪ YOU ONLY LIVE TWICE: Another battle for the bottom of the list as the gentlemen of RANKED argue the merits of Sean Connery's (almost) final James Bond 007 film. "You Only Live Twice" opens with the death of Bond James Bond, a ruse meant to throw his enemies (namely Spectre) off of his trail, allowing him to investigate the disappearance of an American space capsule, hijacked mid-flight by a mysterious enemy missile. Bond must locate the missing space ship before the Americans attack Russia, who they accuse of being behind the hijacking. Oh, and Bond turns Japanese.
