Lol, not that controversial - Dalton is my favorite Bond after Brosnan, and both of his movies are in my top 5 (actually I think The Living Daylights might be number 6 on my list - can’t remember exactly).
I think Tomorrow Never Dies and The World Is Not Enough are hugely underrated. TND is way ahead of its time and almost prescient on a modern rewatch, and TWINE does a fantastic job with its twist Bond girl villain (even if it was the start of the absolutely horrible trend of forcing M into the middle of every plot going forward). Die Another Day is pretty bad though, which is unfortunate, as it gets off to a great start.
But I agree with you - the Craig films are just not Bond movies, and other than Casino Royale, I basically never rewatch them.
