@vincelang3779 I completely agree, Vince. I'll tell you a quick story on that: Judy wasn't even supposed to be in it that day!! But the actress who normally played Mrs. Hudson was already contracted to another job. So Enid Williams, the Producer was going to play her. I turned up at Broadcasting House and who should walk into the lift after me but Judy and her wonderful late husband, Michael Williams who as you know played Dr. Watson. To cut a long story short, Enid asked, "I don't suppose you fancy playing Mrs Hudson, do you?" Judy jumped at the chance because she's a Sherlock Holmes buff and I inadvertently started my career playing alongside the great lady! It was a great day, Vince. I got to chat to Clive Merrison, Donald Sindon (who was absolutely splendid) and a few other seasoned pros. I've done a lot of jobs since and worked with a lot of interesting and lovely actors, but that small job will always be my favourite.Thanks for reminding me of it. All the very best, Mate, Simon-Peter

@napalmwedding

Can we just eat coconut instead?

Silva's introduction scene is one of my favorite movie scenes of all time. It establishes his character, right off the bat, and the shot itself is mesmerizing. We are, like Bond, watching him grow closer and closer as he reaches the end of his story, and I was captivated the whole time. Also, I love how Silva makes sure in this scene that Bond (and therefore the audience) can't get a good read on him, because he changes his personality and tactics to fit what he thinks will work against Bond. As soon as he realized the sexual stuff wasn't fazing Bond, he switched tactics. It's unsettling to Bond and us to not be able to figure him out, and it makes for tense, captivating character interactions.

Because this came out for the 50th anniversary of the franchise, the role of Kincade was written for none other than Sean Connery. However, Connery was living as a tax exile in the Bahamas (which severely limits the amount of time Connery could stay in the country). The producers also felt the casting would be too distracting, so they cast Albert Finney. Unfortunately, this was Finney’s final role due to kidney cancer, and was going through chemotherapy during filming.

What I always loved about the Craig era films was the understanding that the agents were all damaged people who chose to serve understanding they were nothing but expendable tools. This one shows it as the main plot Bond took his little holiday because he'd lost faith in M's judgment. He wasn't angry he got shot he was angry she didn't trust him. Silver couldn't accept his own recklessness put him in the position where M was forced to give him up to Chinese intelligence. Silver's loyalty was to M personally so her betrayal caused him to strike out on his own while Bond may respect and admire M his loyalty has always been to the country so loosing faith in her would never cause him to turn traitor.

best take/psychological breakdown of characters

Skyfall was released on the 50th Anniversary of the James Bond movies (Dr. No was released in 1962) and what I love about it is that it has just the right amount of fanservice, including legacy characters like Q and Miss Moneypenny, slowly bringing in Bond gadgets, plus the kitted out Astin Martin from "Goldfinger", great references like James Bond saying "For Your Eyes Only" referencing the movie "For Your Eyes Only" (1981) and so much more. It's definitely a James Bond movie for the long time Bond fans. Also, the cinematography in this movie is stunning, Roger Deakins deserves so much praise.

And right from the start the movies ALWAYS made Bond something else, insofar as turning him into a character that paying moviegoers wouldn't find completely repellent.

It wasn't until Skyfall that I realised how much Judi Dench brought to the franchise. The dynamic between Bond and M was at its best when she was in that role

Putting the James Bond movie franchise aside for a second…SKYFALL is a brilliant movie in isolation and in itself it highlights the true essence of great movie making. To think it was nominated for 5 Oscar’s (never before matched by another OO7 movie) and won 2 of them is testament to Daniel Craig, his fellow actors and the team behind the set. An incredible movie and most definitely in my top 20 movies of all time (I’m a movie geek). Faultless performances and a great plot and twist. I cried when M passed because not only is Dame Judi Dench exquisite in the role but Craig shows Bond’s true feelings for M because as an orphan, she was in fact the motherly figure he never had. If you also note that Kincaid calls M - Emma…is this deliberate or an old man presuming that M stands for “Em” as in Emma? Albert Finney and Ralph Fiennes are masterful and Javier Bardem - what a villain!!! Genius but not as scary as his role in No Country For Old Men. The best Bond movie - eclipses both Goldfinger and Casino Royale in my opinion. Spectre (for me) isn’t far behind it although underrated by quite the crowd. I look forward to your reaction and the stunts are truly amazing. The Bourne and MI movies brought us a ruthless Bond and Craig will be remembered for a great body of work as OO7!

The moment on top of the train when you both duck to the left at the same time has to be nominated for one of the reaction moments of the year.

The first three Daniel Craig Bond films are near perfect. This ending is the ending the Craig Bond films should have ended with. Love how everything comes full circle prequelywise.

Second best Bond movie overall after Casino Royale for me. The title song gave me goosebumps in the cinema. Bardem is such a great villain, so soft-spoken; the exact opposite of the usual shouty bad guy.

Did you recognise Q's voice? He's also Paddington Bear. The Tennyson recital, the old Bond theme striking up when the Aston Martin is revealed, Moneypenny's introduction and new M asking bond if he's ready to get to work are great touches.

Silva is top tier Bond villain, Bardem played it perfectly.

"Some men are coming here to kill us...... we're gonna kill them first!" Definitely in the top 5 Bond films of all time!

This is my favorite of Daniel's run as Bond. Loved the interaction between Him and Dame Judy Dench as M here. And the Music!❤

This is my favorite Daniel Craig Bond movie. It's a bit sentimental to me because it came out right after my old dog passed away and I was a mess so I went to this to get my mind off everything. It was 2+ hours of distraction that I was so very grateful for. I love the villain in this, the call backs, the fact that they gave Judy Dench a bigger role, the cinematography, the editing, etc. It's just a great Bond movie and I can watch it any time and just be at peace.

One of my fondest memories of my dad was going to see a James Bond movie together. He used to laugh so much at the jokes and innuendos. He was the loudest in the cinema. Gone over 30 years now but that memory still makes me smile.

There's a theory that some original plot elements ended up on the production room floor, one being that the villain was M's son (adopted or otherwise) but she had had to give him up when working in Hong Kong. That odd phrase on her computer "Think on your sins" is an anagram of "your son isn't in HK".

As someone who saw Adele for two shows two weekends ago, I can assure you her performance of Skyfall is epic in person!

This one is my favorite of the Daniel Craig movies. There are some epic visuals that are just beautiful to watch in this show, and with the addition of Javier Bardem, it is just amazing.

The reason the voice of Q is so familiar is that the actor, Ben Whishaw, is also the voice of Paddington :)

Casino Royale will always be my favorite Craig Bond... but this is the best one. Skyfall is just so damn good. Javier Bardem does an amazing villain. Just as talented as James is. They play off each other at their first meeting so very well. The whole "what makes you think it's my first time" line is so good. Dench getting a great last fight as a send off. I love the twist with Ralph Fiennes character. You kind of don't like him at first but he proves himself a really good guy by the end.

This one and Casino Royale are my favorites of the Craig era. Javier Bardem is AMAZING as Silva. Hell, he's amazing in everything he's in! Love watching you guys, the best reactors on KZread. 👍

I know not everyone loved that movie as much as I did, but, as someone who studied medieval and rennaisance literature (particularly Elizabethean theater) I found it particularly enjoyable.

Speaking of callbacks, I loved that Skyfall, where Bond was from, was in Scotland. The original author, Ian Fleming, gave Bond a Scottish background after seeing Sean Connery as Bond.

If you think Javier Bardem is creepy in this one you should see him in "No country for Old Men". Freaking awesome😊

Speaking of which... 5:00 Automatic firearm sound effects brought to you by Carli B. 😂 36:20 Bond's parents died in a climbing accident; Alec Trevelyan (006) mentioned it in _Goldeneye_ .

When Silva takes the knife in the back at the end, and she says "the good old-fashioned way" 😳omg 😂the best I've seen on the internet this year!

Such a classic. Almost as good as Casino Royale.

Hey ladies! This is one of my favorite DC Bond films, even though there were a few aspects I wasn't keen on. Casino Royale is my favorite ahead of this. Even before I went to see it opening weekend, I had read about a month or so before that it was Judy Dench's last time as M, due to a health thing and she felt it was time to move on. She'd been M since Brosnan had been Bond. I didn't know that she'd be killed off, just thought maybe injured enough to decide to retire. Anyways, not sure if you realized it but this movie had 2 alums from Harry Potter with Ralph Fiennes and the black haired actress who was questioning M on the panel. She had played Draco Malfoy's Mother. And hate to say, she passed from Cancer, I think last year. And BTW....they weren't saying Mum, but Ma'am, which with the Brit accent sounds like- Mum. 😊

Mask -1985 *A true story* about unconditional love Everyone I have shared the movie with loved it and said they could not believe they had never heard of it -Cher -Eric Stoltz -Sam Elliott -Laura Dern

The big lizard is a Komodo Dragon. From Komodo island, most likely. They're fast , they're strong, they're venomous, and they're cannibals. They ARE dinosaurs. But they're also heavy, so if you encounter one, climb high.

One of the absolute best Bond films. Love it.

This one should have been the natural transition point to a new Bond. They set it up perfectly.

I remember hearing around the time of this filming that Kincaid was originally suppose to be played by Sean Connery, but they couldn’t come to a workable contract. This film was so amazingly good and beautifully shot.

“His is little but it can shoot a lot more than the other guy!” Who else said to themselves, “that’s what she said!” 😂😂

The lizards in the pit were monitor lizards, aka Komodo Dragons.

The moment the Martin was reintroduced was the moment Daniel Craig became a legitimate 007. On Parr with Sean Connery in every way. This movie was brilliant!

I love that the where so into it, they both dodged in the same direction at the same time 41:48😂

"his voice is familiar..." - you're right. He's Paddington Bear...

Ah yes, the first James Bond film I ever saw in the cinema and my absolute favourite of the entire series. It's really a perfect way to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the series, a delightful blend of old and new taking the more out-there silly elements of the earlier films and blending them with a more moody and introspective examination of the character and his legacy. The entire cast are perfect here, Judi Dench is just phenomenal in her last full performance as M, Javier Bardem is the right balance of sinister, funny and tragically pathetic, and the new MI6 team are introduced perfectly. The action is epic and exciting, the score is just astounding, and Roger Deakins' cinematography is jaw-droppingly beautiful, definitely the best-looking film in the series, with No Time to Die a close runner-up in that regard. The perfect conclusion to the first 50 years of Bond, and a great way to set us up for the _next_ 50 years.

I love your reactions so much you bring such fun to them. Long may they continue. Much love from England.

The big lizardy thing was a komodo dragon. They aren't bad-ass like it shows, they usually bite their prey, allow infections to develop and then eat it when it dies.

I saw a video of a komodo dragon eating a deer being born and then eating the mother deer alive 😢

the komodo dragon jump i guess was a homage to the live and let die crocodile jump

This is my favorite Bond movie that I have watched. It was perfect.

I just can't get over the Home Alone style ending fight.

Skyfall has the best Bond song IMO.

I definitely have found over the years that a person's state of mind when watching a movie does play a bit part in their perception of that movie, regardless of whether or not that perception had anything to do whatsoever with the movie itself. Movies are all subjective and one's judgment of a movie is most often based on how it made them feel emotionally by the end. But, sometimes one's emotional connection or disassociation to a movie can actually be sometimes based on things outside the movie itself. For example, a person can instantly hate a certain character in a movie (or even the actor playing the character) for whatever reason and that can alter the viewer's mood for the rest of the movie and that already formed their opinion of the rest of the movie. Another example, a person can feel tired before even watching the movie and wrongly attribute their feelings of tiredness onto the movie itself for making them feel bored. Both have happened to me on multiple occasions. I have been tired watching some movies and hated the movie, but then watched it again later when I was much more awake and loved it. Many times people can even judge a movie based on their own expectations not being met rather than on the merit of the movie. That is a big reason why I believe most movies should be seen at least twice, including movies you initially hated. Also, one may need to take some more time after seeing a movie to think more about it and/or talk it over with someone else who saw the movie and may have a different opinion of it than you did that might help change your perspective. So, I honestly do think Carly's movie amnesia can actually be a real thing many other people also experience from time to time as well and that can affect their perception of a movie too. It may or may not be as extreme as missing entire plot points and big sequences, but I do think that affects the way they remember a movie that may not be as "good" or as "bad" as they originally thought. I think some people do need the occasional reminder of what they saw before and their opinions can & do change accordingly. I think it happens a lot more than people may realize or care to admit.

Out of the Daniel Craig era, Casino Royale is my favourite Bond Film, but Skyfall is my favourite film.
