*stands up, continues slow clap*
I stand with you. I liked them both.
:D
One of the many reasons why I love CR is that it gave us a stripped-down Bond: a moderate amount of M, no Moneypenny, no Q.
I have issues with SF, the main one being that we didn't need the Q and Moneypenny reintroductions, not necessarily. Mendes backtracked in a way that Campbell and Forster did not. SP continued Mendes' trend of relying on past tropes, squandering the exciting future for Bond that CR laid out.
Despite his "fanboy" status, I'm not sure that Mendes has ever "gotten" Bond, not in the way that Campbell did. If Craig does one more Bond, I really hope Campbell does too.

@TripAces
21 out of 49 rankings have SF and SP in their Top 10.
I agree @echo. I don't think Mendes is quite as confident in the 'Bond world' as Campbell. Even Forster probably got the general idea down better.....he just had a nutter doing the editing imho.
SP 9/10
QOS 7/10
CR 7/10
SF 5/10
CR 9/10
SF 8/10
SP 8/10
QOS 4/10 ....... film was ruined by Forster and his editors by acting like deranged baboons in the editing booth.
From 49 rankings:
SF is No 1 once, SP is No 1 three times.
SF and SP are No 2 three times each.
SF is No 3 five times, SP is No 3 once.
SF is No 4 twice, SP is No 4 five times.
SF and SP are No 5 five times each.
SF is 16 times in the Top 5.
SP is 17 times in the Top 5.
Wanna know anything else? :))
As soon as there are 50 full rankings (24 EON movies) I'll do a detailed chart for all 24 movies :)
CR 9.5/10
SP 8/10
QOS 7/10
:)) If you're happy, I'm happy.
QOS by the way is exactly
:))
CR 9/10 -- 1/24
SP 8/10 ~~ 13/24
SF 6/10 -- 15/24
QoS 5/10 -- 17/24
(this was a double post on accident, edited for substance)
The thought alone is giving me a boner :D
QOS by Martin Campbell would have made it a Top 5 movie at least!
While I admire and love the man's work in the series, I couldn't care less what Campbell's opinion is on QoS. I love it and that's all I need.
;)
.......well at least the action scenes would of been more coherent, and the rest of the film would of been played out at a slightly slower pace, so the audience could absorb the story, and get more into the film!
I wonder if I'll look at him and the film differently now, given I know the associations with SPECTRE.
PS: QoS is a phenomenally beautiful film on blu ray. All the colours just pop...
All of a sudden "Oh, Blofeld has been behind everything the whole time" in SP doesn't work for me. I know why there's no evidence otherwise, but why aren't they taking the time to build suspense now? It's such a waste...
