Fun movie.

ERIC BURDON and THE ANIMALS stole the show obviously.

I liked Skyfall better when it was called Dark Knight and Dark Knight Rises. Oh wait, no I didn't. I hated those movies too.

Casino Royale: based on book = good

Skyfall: based on "original" script (ie- recycled Hollywood nonsense) = bad

Where was James Bond in this movie?

Wearing a suit, shooting criminals with his Walther PKK, sleeping with women and drinking his martini while hanging out with M and Q

why do you ask?

And driving the DB5.

You must have missed that part

Huh? This movie was pretty vintage James Bond. Daniel Crag is no Sean Connery for sure, but who is?

SPOILERS!!!

- 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.

- Vic

I don't think Leiter would have been in the film. It was a completely personal bond/M movie; it was about them being scrutinized, Leiter would not have fit.

I hope I'm not the only person to ask, who is Kincaid?

I think with Bond doing all the ridiculous stuff he did, and surviving it all (getting shot, getting captured, getting hypothermia) and walking away, Bond ended up paying for all his survival as M died. Like, she took all his sins with her once she died.

Kincaid was the old caretaker of the mansion. Having Connery play him would've been amazing I agree, but Albert Finney is still pretty boss.

Honestly this felt more like a Bond film to me than the last two ever did.

That scene where the woman got shot by Silva and Bond just said "waste of good scotch" was pretty cold

Even by Bond standards

If anything it just shows how alike Bond and Silva are. Bond himself has a tendency to go rogue and go on his own missions

If betrayed and tortured and forced to take that cyanide pill, whos to say Bond wouldnt just become Silva himself?

**Hamada** · 11-12-2012, 04:10 PM

I dunno, it looked like pretty good scotch.

I thought it was even worse that he basically banged a sex slave, that part made me cringe.
