Hopefully at some point, insane Bond villains will make a come back, the same way they brought back a bit of comedy and fun for this one, these movies were getting too serious, Quantum of Solace was...a bore to me.

I think this is a thing they are doing with villains in modern movies, they are never too intense or insane like they were in say for example the 80's. Today's villains are cold and calculating, calm in their evil ways. I of course love insane villains way better, which is why I loved the hell out of Mad Max: Fury Road, it was a return to insanity. <br /><br />Franco Macabrohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10994905312221715861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8293273378239831747.post-39557934522327443102015-11-15T13:11:47.002-08:002015-11-15T13:11:47.002-08:00I really dig, how Spectre was promoted.

They even threw a chinchilla cat for a more obvious reference. I loved those details. But, for some reason, I hated Waltz' performance. He didn't have no vibe whatsoever. I like him as a dorky vampire and as a dorky nazi. He was very good in Water for Elephants as a villain. In Spectre he is just so over the top. He overacts every scene. He doesn't look evil at all. Dominic Greene was a far superior villain comparing to villains in Mendes' films. Sergei Kolobashkinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01262378959453150501noreply@blogger.com
