Spoiler-free surveys - once you've seen it

Who is visiting a fan forum when you’ve hated the lead for 15 years?

Isn’t that masochism?

Unless they are here to celebrate that lead’s imminent departure. Not speaking for myself, BTW.

Turned up to celebrate…I suppose I can see it.

Wouldn’t do it myself mind you.

Yes, but there will be some, no doubt. Probably reduced over time, one suspects.

Exciting!!

Reaction all over the spectrum, it would seem - admittedly, just one day after release.

Good grief. The early birds were right when they said this film would divide fans!

Is the recurring theme for all those who hate it.

Maybe they just missed the “member” jokes? Ta dum.

(is this a double entendre, or a double-double entendre???)

My votes were as follows:

  1. Having seen it, in relation to all the other Bond films my instant reaction for my own list of Bonds is that it’s…BOTTOM THREE (it’s actually the worst of the series for me)

  2. As far as the Daniel Craig’s go it’s…FIFTH

  3. Insofar as it continues elements of the story from SPECTRE it…DOESN’T REALLY AFFECT MY VIEW OF SPECTRE FOR BETTER OR WORSE

  4. Right time for Daniel Craig to bow out? SHOULD’VE GONE BEFORE NOW (before seeing NTTD, I would have said feels right to go now, but many thanks. But after having seen NTTD, I wished he would have gone before now)

  5. My favorite of Daniel Craig’s Bond films was…Casino Royale

  6. My least favorite of Daniel Craig’s Bond films was…NO TIME TO DIE

  7. My favorite EON James Bond is…PIERCE BROSNAN

  8. Reflecting on the Daniel Craig tenure and where they took Bond…CAN WE HAVE THE OLD JAMES BOND BACK NOW PLEASE?

  1. Top three
  2. First
  3. Improves Spectre
  4. Feels right
  5. NTTD
  6. SP
  7. Dalton
  8. Mixed feelings.

NTTD, CR, SF, QOS, SP
I liked that we got a beginning and an end. I miss having a standalone mission. DC went from rookie on QoS to grizzled veteran in SF. Felt we should have had at least two more movies. Happy we got a faithful CR, and a loose YOLT adaptation. Wish they would have been consistent about the DB5. Which side is the steering wheel on? The DB5 in SF makes no sense at all. I revisit QoS more than Spectre. But what’s with the TSWLM references? Makes no sense. SF works symbolically, but is overrated and it’s physics make no sense. How did bond survive the PTS fall? Finally, Blofeld is not Bond’s brother!

I voted, but never posted my results, which have since changed slightly after my 3rd viewing.

  1. Top ten (Top Five)
  2. Second (just edges Skyfall for me)
  3. Still doesn’t change my view of Spectre (if anything, it makes the failings of that film more pronounced)
  4. Feels right to go now
  5. Casino Royale
  6. Spectre
  7. Roger Moore
  8. A great success and thanks for the memories Daniel

It definitely has split the fanbase, but seems to have more fans than critics.
