I'd say she was "weak" because we were supposed to believe that she was the one who'd inspire him to quit again; that their "love affair" was as serious as he and Vesper and that she'd be the girl to make him question what he wants to do with his life and consider something else. And I read that the original script ended with him telling her "we have all the time in the world" so initially, he was going to quit and they were no doubt setting up a proper Diamonds Are Forever type flick with him going after Blofeld for killing her because there will definitely be repercussions to letting him live.

But I don't blame that on her, I just blame it on the writing. Her "I love you" wasn't earned at all

:scust: @MartyMcFly's delusional ass dapping every post except the ones that are rightfully calling this out for the trash it is. Stanning at its worst.:scust:

:umad: it was a decent movie man, you ignore all the things it did right just so you can say it was terrible.. For a movie to be trash it has to have nothing good about it..

:ld:Yea, I was wondering to myself during that scene if it was gonna ruin the whole movie cause it was so random. nikka rolled up to Dr. Evil's base after getting picked up at some random ass train stop. Then after Waltz gives him the grand tour, he in a torture chair. That shyt was amazing and stupid at the same time. Villains need to start stripping their victim's before they bound them to a chair. I mean he's James fukking Bond. Obviously his watch gon do some shyt. That desert part was QoS final showdown bad. But them bringing it back to London made up for it. Ralph, Q and Money played nice roles in this too.

They did that earlier in the movie when he walked straight into that meeting like it was cool only for them to realize it was him and attack him, like what did he think was going to happen? But I agree they should have knew to take his watch especially since this guy knew him so well, like I am sure my apple watch can do some damage in a situation like that..

Naw they went from meeting, her not liking him and wanting him to leave and never be seen again to being in love less than a a weekend later.. You have to show how they got to that point, they were no moments where they do something that makes them realize they love each other.. My gripe with bond movies is the love interest always comes off as a jump off or the convenient fukk, just cause they are doing that mission together.. Bond been doing this all his life and nothing that happened or was said in this movie gave me any understanding as to why he was burned out or would want to settled with her..

:wow:

the villain went down too easily in my opinion. for the leader of a global crime syndicate, that was shytty. the ending was a little anticlimatic, but made sense. the relative lack of gadgets on bond's part is annoying as fukk though. dude got an exploding watch and nanoGPS.. a shytty gun and a whip he ditches quick.. where the gadgets at? Q did his part, but he needs to step up

Well normally that works as far as the love interest thing because it's understood they're not in love lol. Like only a few girls have dropped that L bomb on him: Tatyana in from Russia with love, Tracy in her majesty's secret service, and vesper. And with Tatyana he doesn't believe it and neither does the audience of at least you're not sure if you're supposed to believe it. With Tracy, they got married and with Vesper, he was ready to quit for her and find an honest living. But it was earned in all three situations. The other chicks have just been flings and it's obvious or at least they're not making it seem to be serious or as serious as the other three. So for Madeline to say it out of nowhere lol, and have him make a choice between a life with her and his former life, it doesn't hold water

To be fair, The last 3 Bond films all had underwhelming endings. This one didnt bother me as much as the last 2 though.
You didn't liked Skyfall's 3rd act?? The ice water fight? Going against the chopper? M DYING???? The 3rd act was the highlight of the movie!!!

Spectre was entertaining still not better than casino royale, Skyfall is 50 percent good 50 percent boring and quantum is a Saturday morning B-movie at best. Blofeld's character needed more screen time and story.
Batuista wildn out :russ: DB10 lookin :takedat: and overall action sequences and locations were piff :win::banderas:

I don't compare any of the Daniel Craig Bond movies to one another because I think of them as chapters in one long story. That would be like comparing chapters of a book, and saying one is better than the other.

When you break a movie down, there are different things to enjoy throughout from the cinematography, music, CGI, dialog, costumes, action sequences, etc. When I watch movies, I pay attention to all of these things, which makes the experience more rewarding.

I really liked the mood of Spectre. Overall, I would give it 4/5.

Didn't think about it like that even though I knew the continuity is a lot tighter than previous entries.
Like Nolan's Batman movies, I'm going to have to marathon these four films to really take it all in.
