Brief notes on Skyfall

[firecat]

I really enjoyed Skyfall. It's very cool that they made a Bond film where...


...Bond and almost everyone else fail at almost everything they set out to do, and I'm still cheering and thinking Bond is the greatest agent ever. Also where M dies but I'm not pissed off because Judi got a co-starring role.

I liked how they played with the various Bond tropes. Also it passes the Bechdel test handily.

Wait. A *Bond* movie passes the Bechdel test??

I knew I wanted to see this.

And Judy Dench.

I want to see it now (given Firecat's review and more comments here) enough to ask other locals if they want to go with me, instead of just "meh, if someone asks me I'll go."
