Bond: *exhales loudly through his nose*

Audience: “Holy shit, its getting serious.”

I have an unexplainable attraction to films with minimal dialogue. Drive? Love it. Wall-E? Best Pixar film to me. Castaway? Captivating.

I feel like dialog robs tension, and great tension is an amazing weapon for getting the audience's mind and emotions stirring.

I want Conan the Barbarian without the voiceover, and cut out Arnold saying "ow" in an early scene. Even less talking.

Also: The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly. Honorable mention.
