    I don't mind the shot of the white cat when bond wakes up. Quite a pleasingly odd and ominous moment.

    The torture scene goes on way too long - and it's clear that waltz doesn't quite have a grip on how to play the character. He goes for smiling, sarcastic, monologuing psycho without bringing anything new to it.

    Daniel Craig should really change the difficulty level to '007' rather than 'Agent' next time he plays the 'Escape From Blofeld's Lair' level. He clocked it on the lower setting.

    Some of the dialogue is pretty ordinary in SP particularly for Craig. Of course the 'of course, Mr White' is poor but also 'it's not over yet.'

    The Madeline Swan exit is poorly handled...comes out of nowhere.

    Generic modern action music in the Bond kidnapping.

    Still remember the laugh in the cinema that the line 'now we know what C stands for' received.

    As has been mentioned ad nauseum - the time and effort of Spectre setting up the Mi6 building taunts - photos in cells, spray painted graffiti, working target ranges with bond faces - really could have been spent better.

    C's demise is another weird thing they can't seem to commit to. Just sort of fall off.

    Do like the shot of the helicopter veering away as old Mi6 crumbles behind it.

    Craig setting the 'Helicopter Shootdown' Level on easy again...

    The way Craig played the whole movie, Bond never seemed to be struggling with the whole 'execute Blofeld' conundrum they want us to think he should be. (Even didn't even consider executing Hinx when he was unconscious)

    Queen Elizabeth has been monarch as long as Bond has been in existence. On her majesty's secret service indeed...

    Bond theme on the way out the door. Credits up. Enjoyable viewing - that final act though...jeez. So poorly done.

    Haven't watched a bond film in a while - so that was good to get the toes wet with Spectre.

    No worries people...it says 'James Bond Will Return'...all is right in the world.

    Damn, I have to go to work in a couple hours. I switched to graveyard shift. Love to do a group viewing again soon, though.

    All good! Your choice. May have to cut it short but can do first half at least. @Birdleson

    Oh yes! Although forewarning. It is my favourite Bond film.
