Who cares how "many fans" feel? I don't. I don't believe in allowing popular opinion to influence my tastes in entertainment.

But I'm perfectly happy with the Craig era, 3 out of his 4 movies in my top ten. So I really want to see him back for at least one more!
And am still rooting for Paul Haggis to write, and Alfonso Cuaron to Direct!
!969 the highest peak!

As to the original question. Not a clue. They are too close to call. Very different, yet let down by some questionable writing. In my top half rankings wise.

No more peaks after this. The series rather simply leveled off, which is OK

Indeed although CR remains my favorite Craig Bond film.

There's one at the first post, but it isn't entirely updated
SPECTRE vs Skyfall, the films in general
:-B
That opinion could change over time, but I walked out of Spectre feeling much better about it than I did when I walked out of the theater after Skyfall.
Spectre on the other hand doesn't accomplish what it sets out to do, other than being a "good" Bond film until Bond met Swann. It feels awkward how they made the Bond & Swann relationship something it wasn't. Spectre feels forced and didn't leave me in awe. Too much deus ex machina.
The movie acted like it was a powerful, stunning film without bothering to have a decent script, and felt vacuous as a result
Skyfall wins hands down.
I think the main deus ex machina offenders were the scene in Blofeld's lair and the ending. Those were the two most important scenes in the movie, and it just seems like Bond keeps stumbling around getting lucky without actually DOING anything really clever. We don't get a chance to see the innovative Bond we know and love, because every solution is perfectly gift wrapped for him.
(Not trying to bash the movie, just my opinion. :) )
