![]() And why? Because daddy treated him better than me. It's a terrible script, desperately tying in plots that have no need to be tied together, and were simply never designed this way, undermining the importance of the death of Bond's love, Vesper Lynd, the motivations of the confrontation with his spy-gone-wrong antagonist in Skyfall, and suggesting that this grand scheme was predicated on an impossible knowledge that Bond would somehow always win against all of these impossible odds - and not die along the way (but, conveniently, all of the right people would die). But Spectre sought to bring it all home in a package centred on Bond's arch-nemesis Blofeld, returning to the franchise 'officially' for the first time in decades (since 1971's Diamonds Are Forever) and now apparently the cause of everything that ever happened to Bond ever since Casino Royale. Love for Skyfall has always been in question but, for many, it cemented Craig in the classic role. Casino Royale was a tremendous debut, one of the best Bond films of all time, and - watched back-to-back - Quantum of Solace is a surprisingly effective action finale to the story. Craig had a good run up until this movie.
