As a literary and filmic James Bond super fan, this was just a painful, horrible conclusion to the Daniel Craig Bond era. Craig is a great actor and his casting was inspired, but the mega budget films that followed his brilliant debut in the masterful Casino Royale were just not good (well, at least Skyfall managed to be entertaining.) Really bad scripting and an extremely poorly executed and unnecessary story arc culminated with the bloated fail of NTTD. If James Bond really will return, time to get back to the original Fleming source material.
