For me it's between Diamonds Are Forever or Quantum of Solace. I voted Diamonds but it could've been either.

Diamonds is just horrendously bad, you can tell Connery doesn't care at all in this one, his lethargy for the character/ series really shows. The whole chintzy glitz and "glamour" of '70s Las Vegas doesn't really fit well with the Bond universe IMO. And while we're at it, the moon buggy chase has got to be one of the lamest chases in the series, which is really saying something. The only good scene in the whole movie is the fight scene in the elevator. And as someone already mentioned, Blofeld's demise was incredibly anti-climactic.

Quantum is just bad all-round. Feels like bad Jason Bourne knock-off. The opening car chase could've been really cool, but it was poorly edited, and the movie just goes downhill from there.

The Man with the Golden Gun is probably one of the more disappointing movies in the series, given the potential it had. If there's any James Bond movie I would be ok with being remade, it's probably that one. The car flip stunt was incredible, although sadly diminished by the dumb slide-whistle sound. At least the midget henchman Nick Nack, played by Herve Villechaize, was funny.
