    So, I'm watching Thunderball right now, and there's a scene where a guy is brought into this resort on a stretcher and his face is bandaged and while the guy is unconscious Bond sneaks in and takes of his bandages. Now, I don't know who the guy is but could he be Blofeld post surgery, and could then Safin's white mask be a reference to the facial bandages?
    Oh, plus I'm high.

    That's good.
    DAMN good. I feel like Cornell's YKMN bass line is synonymous with or has replaced the classic Bond riff.

    Alright fellow 007 fans…what do we think?

    I saw it last night. Still processing a lot, but overall it was a very solid ending to the Craig era. Started out very good but got a little cheesy and messy by the end.

    The heavy use of the DB5 was so very great

    I haven't seen it yet. I know some of the spoilers. Will hopefully see it in the next couple weeks.

    Reviews I've seen are mixed. Yes it brings the Craig era to an end. Most people are asking where the franchise goes from here. Yes, in the Credits it says James Bond Will Return. But how will he return. From what I've read, the ending is straightforward. How do they bring Bond back after the ending. For those who have seen it, is there any possibility?

    The Bond series has always had pretty weak continuity. Understandably so, considering its been going for 50 years now. Plus the Craig era has always felt pretty separate from past movies (aside from Judi Dench) given Bond begins his 007 career in Casino Royale.

    My guess is we just start from scratch again, essentially.

    Haven't seen it yet and trying to avoid spoilers here, but did anyone stay through the end credits for Easter Eggs/extra scenes (not sure if there are any)?

    There's no post credit scene, but "James Bond will Return" is at the end of the credits as it is with all the movies.

    Okay, cool, thanks. I will read your thoughts on the movie once I actually see the film.

    I should've rewatched Spectre before going. I recommend to anyone planning to see it.

    I was pretty shocked by the ending. My buddies and I looked at each other sort of in disbelief, but it seemed very clear, no uncertainty.

    Thought the movie was great. Some missed opportunities - really wanted Felix's cigar to come back in that final scene. The emotional, in-love Bond naturally delivers much less sex than we're used to seeing. Was pretty let down by how small the Ana de Armas role was in the movie.

    Great action, awesome tech. Beautiful scenery. Craig had a great run.

    This. In a different timeline she should have been the main love interest. Maybe should have saved her for the reboot. Never too much Ana.

    I’ve been pondering my feelings on the walk home. I didn’t know what the ending was going to be but though Malik was pretty stellar despite being so limited in the movie. Loved Craig’s bond and I thought this was a fitting end and tribute to his story. That being said, very bittersweet for this bond character. All he wanted along he way was love—agape, storage, and pragma, really—and trust. Felix scene really hit me, as did the scene in the house with the first encounter with the child.

    On a personal level, really mixed feelings and reaction. One of my first dates was casino royale. That relationship lasted a good while and when it ended, I found a lot of comfort here on ants and made a lot of new lifelong friends. Watching this movie with the theme that was painted throughout the second half of the film stirred a lot of introspective thoughts and feelings, and I’m still struggling to sort through those. It’s always said you never forget your first love—think it’s very true and why I’m feeling.

    Thank you Mr. Craig.

    Finally saw this on Tuesday. I have no idea what to say. There's a lot to digest about that ending. It was hard to swallow at first, but the more I think about it the more I can accept the ending. If thats the way they wanted to end it, I'm ok with that. Just wish it was done a little different.

    The Craig era has been setup for it to end that way. I just wish it was more earned and justified. Like, what was the big rush in getting the island bombed asap?

    Q was monitoring the island and saw unusual activity taking place. As cry_minarets said, the Nanobots were being prepared to be loaded onto ships already docked at the island, or ships just approaching the island. At least thats how I remember it happening.

    I generally liked everything except I didn't understand Malik's motivation to basically kill the world. I understood his desire to kill Spectre for the most part (though we don't even know why Spectre wanted his family dead to begin with), but what did I miss for why he wanted to kill millions of people? So much of the movie felt like a throwback to classic Bond movies (a typical Bond villain, the old Bond cars, typical Bond villain lair, typical named Bond villain sidekick (Cyclops), enemies that literally can't hit a single of their 1000+ shots, etc.), which was good, but they also brought back the plot weaknesses of Bond villains.

    The Cyclops sidekick is named Primo I believe. Not sure if it was ever mentioned.

    I don't remember Safin full plan. Just another big plot hole. Yes, he wanted to kill millions of people. Seems like I remember in an interview from sometime back, I think it was Daniel Craig said Rami's villain was a mis-understood villain. I don't think it was mentioned how the nanobots were programmed. I think the programming was left up to whoever bought the nanobots. Safin had the technology and would tell buyers how to use the tech. Maybe thats why it was never explained?

    They actually did call that sidekick Cyclops in the movie (like a throwback to Odd Job and Jaws).

    Regarding Safin, yeah, it just seems like they left out some details because they ran out of running time and wanted to focus more on Bond's love life and such. The nanobots could definitely be programmed to target whatever DNA someone wanted. That's what the Russian scientist was doing. Also, why that Russian scientist was so hyped to kill millions of people I don't know either. I guess he was just giddy to see his invention get used no matter how it was used. Anyway, it didn't bother me that much, but it would have made the movie a little richer if the villains were a little more 3 dimensional.

    Very much agree that the villains motivation towards Bond was very unclear. Especially since he had set him up at the end with the blood in the vile. He clearly was thinking about it but didn’t tell itself on screen.

    Also I don’t think that the girl 007 will be it going forward. I imagine the next movie will replace James Bond as a new member of MI6 and then take over the 007 title by the end of the movie.

    If they stick with current continuity. They could completely reset, which is pretty common for this franchise.

    I loved Craig's arc. This last film turned it from an adventure story into an epic tragedy, and it's one of the best pop culture storytelling tragedies of my adult lifetime. Up there with Sandman for me.

    I'm unfamiliar with Bond before Pierce (even that I'm sketchy) but they've never killed him before right?

    Haven't they pretty much slid every actor that plays Bond in and out with no explanation? Craig is obviously unique because he got to play the true introduction movie (Royale). So the Craig story line went from James Bond earning the 007 moniker and now dead.

    I wonder how they reintroduce James Bond. It will be interesting for sure.

    I honestly have no idea what to think about that ending. Will need to digest it over the next few days. I hope I get more comfortable with it as the next few days pass. I am going to miss Craig as Bond, that's for certain.

    Also, I definitely got a bit of a different vibe from this Bond movie (compared to the previous Craig ones). First, I got a Dark Night kind of feel in a lot of scenes, which I don't remember feeling in previous Bonds (a very dark feeling to a lot of scenes). I also think they kind of pushed the boundary of realism more in this one than in previous ones (that airplane submarine thing was a bit much for me). A few things also seemed rushed to me - a bit less detail oriented maybe. Stranded in the ocean, ship sees him, back to London in a 1 minute movie scene, etc.

    i took the cyclops reference as a small c cyclops. like he had one fucking eye. sure, a throwback, but that's how it was used in this film, not as a nickname or his thug name.

    No, they've never literally killed Bond before. In the Pre-Title sequence of You Only Live twice Bond faked his death. Bond was in a Murphy bed. The bed folded up into the wall when some goons came in with machine guns and shot up the bed. When the bed folded down, blood has seen on the sheets beside Bond. The movie was even advertised as Bond will die. Other than that, Bond flatlined in Die Another Day and was brought back to life. Bond flatlined again in Casino Royale only to be revived by Vesper.


    As for re-introducing Bond, the only way is a hard re-boot. Kind of hard to bring someone back from being shown incinerated by a missile. Of course, one of the early ideas that Cary has for this movie was to have some of it taking place in Bonds head. At some point in the movie, Bond was to wake up and still be in Blofeld torture chair in Spectre. If they wanted to go that route they could. The idea was scrapped. I think they go back to stand alone missions. The series may take a couple years off then a new actor will be introduced. I'd like to see if they could pull of what Marvel has done. Do stand alone missions, but have a sub-plot in each movie that slowly tells a story.
