Craig's acting when he confronts Yusef is very good (despite that entire epilogue being way too reminiscent of The Bourne Supremacy right down to the snow in Russia). Probably the most threatening I've seen him as Bond. That killer look was something Brosnan could never do imho, and it was good to see it back in 2008.
That is a good moment, also which I noticed earlier Bonds look when he first directly spoke to Greene that was very similar. Craig really nailed cold assassin well in QoS.
You make a good point a new composer will bring there own fresh interpretation, I am anti Newman to be honest thought he was generic long before he worked on Bond.
That is a brutal fight, Craig's reaction after is realistic.
Regarding the Glen era one great thing was the practical stunts, a good opening to the film.
The title track is good compared to many that followed.
The score is a good Bond Swan Song for Barry, some great cues and great themes in this film.
It's a great looking film nearly every frame is full of detail and interest, the script/screenplay writers create alot of old school Fleming moments in this film I agree. Had to switch it off will start the film again from the beginning next opportunity.
The best seen Blofeld

He did indeed.
PTS- Classic and moves quickly. I love that the entire sequence is pretty much Pinewood based, yet still feels he's on location to a degree.
The DEFINITIVE white dinner jacket.
I remember many VHS editions were missing a few frames and the first chord of the title song was omitted.
I tried popping in TWINE the other day and from the first few moments in the banker's office I felt like watching another Bond.
That never happens with this one for me.
This makes me want to go back to the Miami of 1964.
IMO, I find the Auric Stud set very convincing, and I can believe Bond is held prisoner out in the country somewhere.
Also I love the 1930's/1940's era style gangsters Auric is doing business with. I suppose in 1964, the Warner Bros.' gangster film heyday really wasn't THAT long ago in the past. The Bogart and Cagney films were often re-issued theatrically, and on television. So although Goldfinger's gangsters are something of an outdated relic- the audience could still relate. I imagine today's equivalent might be a contemporary villain like Silva interacting with characters that seem to belong in the 1990's.
A population isn t changed in 20 years.
Commenting late- Bond has just won.
This viewing has had me enthralled from the get go.
I think he's eating scrambled eggs, and toast with caviar.
While talking, with his mouth open.
Yes!!!
I believe in the book they're in some secluded house where this happens. I haven't read it since this film was in production.
Pierce would have done his pain face, and it would have been funny. I think Tim would have squinted his eyes intensely.
Roger of course would have .............
OOOOOHHHRRROOOOO.
