The only thing I think is overrated about it is the idea that it's the "greatest bond of all time" I think that's incorrect. To me, that's either From Russia with Love or Casino Royale but Skyfall is a dope dope movie. The only emotional investment comes in Bond's journey which works for me a lot
"greatest bond of all time"
The villain was so trash in that movie. How many times is a Bond villain gonna leave Bond alone to give him a chance to escape. shyt was so cliche and stupid I almost turned it off. And I never understood why Bond let the Shanghai assassin shoot dude in the back of the head like that before he attacked him. He could to have save the mans life, but just watched him get merked like that.
I hated Quantum, but I still put that movie over Skyfall.
Coming for the Rocks spot.
Also can we get another Bond so tired of Daniel Craig
Yea your second paragraph is the conclusion I came to too, but it just bugged me the way he attacks him the second after he kills dude. I never understood the reason to wait until that point. I might have to watch it again going into Spectre to understand Silva's motives and that whole island scene which I hated. I think I was let down so much watching the second half of Skyfall because I was so into the first half. I can easily say Skyfall had the best Bond opening ever. But, thats probably why I'm so hard on the rest of the movie.I hear you but here's the reason I can justify it and it may be a bit of a reach but go with me a bit: Silva is arrogant. That much is obvious from the first message he sends M. He, much like the Joker, gets a thrill out of toying with Bond because it's all part of his plan. Bond is merely something in the way of him getting to M which is why he initially tries to turn Bond to his side. The only reach with it is the idea that he knows ALL of this is coming: MI6 will retreat to their bunker once security is breached, they'll send Bond since he's one of the last if not the last 00's in the field (and obviously Silva would know he's not really dead) Bond will come to his island but will radio for backup, then Silva will be transferred to the bunker, then he'll make his way to M's hearing. All of that is far fetched but you go with it because it's executed well and you get the idea that the guy probably is that smart.
And I'm not knocking Bond for his desire or lack of desire to save people from executions lol. Homie has a history of being cold and cavalier to peoples deaths, he isn't superman or spider man or batman where the loss of life is inexcusable; he really doesn't care, just wants to get the job done, do his mission, and save queen and country. If one person has to die on the way to that end, so be it. That's always been his makeup. Think of the women he's sacrificed over the years

That's fair. Dalton's legacy suffers because he only had 2 to work with although that's no fault of his own. Pierce was a good Bond too just had some terrible movies minus the first
Dalton gets unfair hate but as a reader of Fleming's novels he nailed what Bond should be, I have no problem with Craig, I just find it funny that all things he is praised for Dalton did it first and IMO better. I do have some sympathy for Brosnan he wanted better Bond films than he got, but he was too smarmy me.
I'm saying...have dudes not seen the masterpiece that is Casino Royale.best since Connery
I'm saying...have dudes not seen the masterpiece that is Casino Royale.
From START TO FINISH that movie is classic. Quantum and Skyfall....eh...they could have been much much MUCH better. I'll agree with that. Especially Skyfall because Quantum was lackluster coming off the greatness that was CR. Skyfall started out amazing and then ended very flat.
It's like a Cane Sugar Pepsi that was left in the freezer right before it freezes...you pop it open...it's delicious...cold...frosty...then you put it down somewhere on the side of the coach and accidentally take a sip from it the next day. shyt all warm and flat now...fukk![]()
Back when I tried to do a James Bond parody on my podcast (which I failed by the way) I was gonna use this as the intro:That cast
Now they just need to revive Amy Winehouse for a couple of minutes so she can do the intro song![]()
