Not only that, but the filmmakers also seem to have difficulty with properly making a light-hearted Bond adventure.

The thing is they DO NOT want to do it. Anything that is other than dead-serious is beneath them.
Pathetic.

I die a little inside each time someone says that Bond has to be campy. I'd rather a little humour in a Bond thriller.

I didn't say Bond movies have to be campy. But I think humor is needed. Maybe not too much but then again not too little. And Bond movies were never exactly thrillers either. TLD came closest to it. Along with FRWL.

Yeah, his one word of dialogue, "Lunch?", lands like a lead weight.

Bond movies has to have the same formula of the pre Craig era. Humour and bit of silly thrown in.

If I want a dark, serious no nonsense spy movie. There is always Jason Bourne and... Johnny English!
