Re: Skyfall Discussion (spoilers allowed)
In all fairness, Quantum of Solace was by all accounts a rushed work (Daniel Craig himself had to help write some of the scenes, and the rewrite was apparently sent in seconds before the deadline.) I did like him crying when M dies. While it's fine not to agree with whether or not Craig is right, hi...

Re: A dissenting opinion
There are scenes where bond does show honest emotions regarding women, and he does develop. He ultimately spares Yusef (one of the people responsible for vesper's death) rather than simply executing him (Something m points out), and finally he does show genuine feelings towards the women in QoS. In ...

Re: A dissenting opinion
Quantum of Solace did have some dumb things (I mean the fact that bond has trouble with a single axe wielding buisnessman yet effortlessly dispatches a large amount of MI6 agents.)

Re: A dissenting opinion
I didn't mind the reboot because the continuity had become kind of a mess. It's one of the reasons why DC rebooted in 1985. Things were kind of messy. As for Bond: I wouldn't say he's a novice at seducing women. Given Solagne's comments about how he likes married women, he's most likely done it befo...

Re: A dissenting opinion
I felt there were. when he and solange were kissing post coital and she asks why good men can't be like him, the way that he says "but then they'd be bad" felt pretty bondian. I didn't mind him being rough. Roger Moore (who incidentally enjoyed the film) said that Craig's character was earning his s...

A dissenting opinion
As heretical as this seems, Craig's performance doesn't bother me. Each actor has a spin on the character, and they each bring it to life. Craig I view as a sort of hybrid of the movies and books. He's charming and charismatic, but it's also clear that when he has to be he can be both cold and ruthl...
