Yes - "trash" is kind of a harsh and exaggerated word for, at the very least, something that was shot by Hoyte Van Hoytema and scored by Thomas Newman. Clearly the kind of "trash" that more than likely ends up being someone else's treasure.
Not entirely wrong, compared to Skyfall - but the pieces over the scenes in Mexico were new and very good.
That was the only good track.
+1
Agree 100 %
One slightly too overrated, one slightly too underrated.
Recycling is important for the environment.
But i have SF at #7 and SP at #12 in my ratings so they are both fine to me..its the last act in London that still annoys me about SP,i have nothing like that about SF.
Not for film scores.
I certainly like Skyfall more than you but I'm coming to the conclusion that SPECTRE is one of the worst of the series.
It's more the potential that makes it worse, what it could have been and for me the only real black mark on the Craig era.
I couldn't care less about 1995 - 2002 but SPECTRE I really invested in that's what makes it hurt and a good percentage why I'm so viscious in my criticism of it.
I like Spectre & even I can admit the quality of the film could have been better with minor changes
Pretty much agree with all of this. Entertaining stuff through the first half, them man this thing just becomes really silly. I'd actually prefer watching QoS over this thing. Serious story with no contrived ending. A great chase through Rome RUINED by stupid banter and the playlist gag. Ugh. And the mouse gag, gimme a break.
That's actually true, spectre is a Brosnan film, at least it feels like one
It's a choice moment of levity, that wouldn't work in some hands, but in Craig's is executed perfectly. I don't really see how/why we can assume that Fleming wouldn't approve - a literary equivalent may play out as follows - Fleming Bond in a dusty old Beirut bedroom waiting patiently for an assassin to return to his digs; Bond in half slumber is disturbed by a mouse/rat - he follows it as it scuttles across the stone floor - cue an internal monologue fleshing out the comparable, devious, rat-like character about to be put to the sword. I'm aware that's not a direct comparison, merely suggesting the scenario isn't as obviously stupid as some make out.

What if the rat had a laser?
Edit: I couldn't find a Vesper "You've lost me completely" gif, but while searching I found this one instead:
I certainly understand where you're coming from and share your sentiments for SP.
The last lines of TWINE and DAD are dreadful.
Ugh. Back to mediocre screenwriting.
