Personally,i would love a stand-alone mission based Bond film with Craig next.
I hate to think that this bastardization might be the last we see of so hallowed a Bond institution as SPECTRE.
Uhhh, didn't they mean Quantum?
Indeed. And it was 100% avoidable.
As the the OP's point: the helicopter fight was used up in the wrong end of the film. A Hinx-Bond battle in the helicopter, with Blofeld inside, would have been epic. Blofeld is kicked out, falls into the Thames*. Bond finishes off Hinx and gains control of the chopper. Later: divers and patrol boats find no evidence of Blofeld's body.
*Too much like Bond's fall in the pts of SF?
=D>
I like the idea but it needs a gimmick....aha ,how about a delicatesen....AND in stainless steel !!
They can do what they like. They can have Blofeld return, or not. Everyone's assumption is you need to see him escape, or witness him being imprisoned. You don't need either. People need to stop getting their knickers in a twist over it. By all means worry that they may take the wrong route with it, but there are options.
There's no definitive set up, though. It can be seen as closure, just as much as it can be a catalyst. The idea that they've painted themselves into a corner suggests they've eradicated all manner of choice, narratively, which is patently untrue.
Either I misinterpreted the OP or you misinterpreted me.
I was referring to the fact that SP raised a lot of questions unnecessarily, such as the Bond-Oberhauser relationship and the rise and fate of Spectre.
I was left with the impression that Blofeld was arrested. The great leader was introduced and arrested within one film ... fine for anyone else, but not Blofeld
Still, I'll hope for the best.
That's probably their best option.
I'm rapidly heading in that direction too,which is a shame really.
