Re: This November, Skyfall is coming.
I just got home from seeing it, and I must say it's probably in my top 5 of the Bond films. I wish there was more of Javier Bardem's character, he stole the movie from the rest of the cast. I also think the end of the movie was a little anti-climactic, the movie had an epic feel up until Bond kills Bardem's character fairly easily.

Re: This November, Skyfall is coming.
Silva basically had Bond outclassed at every turn. Outsmarted, outfought. There were similar (note how they both let themselves get captured in order to accomplish their goals, not to mention their favour with M), but ultimately, I think Silva was better
For a start, Bond only got Silva with one sneak attack. But even then, Silva accomplished his mission. He killed M
Masterclass of a villain he was, friendo. His calm composure, flamboyance, hell that entrance in the attack chopper was beyond epic
Possibly the best bond villain ever

Re: This November, Skyfall is coming.
Skyfall did $88 million this weekend. #1 until next week which will be doubtful it hangs on

Is this the last Twilight hopefully. It needs to die already.

Yes, unless Meyer writes more. Sadly, her other book The Host is coming to theaters

Re: This November, Skyfall is coming.
"Best Bond movie ever!" Its such a cliche thing to say, but for Daniel Craig IMO its true. Never thought they would be able to surpass Casino Royale. loved, Loved, LOVED the movie! My only gripes were:
SPOILERS!!!

- Silva was such an interesting character. I wish he had more screentime.
- I don't have a problem with gay people, but seeing Bond get fondled against his will was uncomfortable to watch and actually made me cringe in my seat.
- The "villain gets intentionally captured only to escape" cliche is really tiresome.
- I wish they had cut the scene with Mallory visiting Q to help him. It ruined the surprise that he was going to be his new boss IMO.
- Quantum should've been in this. It would've been only logical Silva had ties to them.
- Felix Leiter also should've been in this. At least a cameo appearance. It was odd to watch without him there.
- He wouldn't have done it, but how cool would it have been for Sean Connery to play Kincaid?!!
- Hated to see M die. It was understanble would've preferred that she stepped down like Q did back in 1999.
