The story had potential, most definitely. It was just executed about as horribly as possible, just an awful movie. Telly Savales as Blofeld, the dude who is always in a chair and is now a world class skier.

Ugh.

Sam Mendes isn't coming back for another Bond movie:

Mendes’ rep confirmed the director’s statement in Empire magazine, which explains that he will not direct James Bond’s 24th adventure.

“It has been a very difficult decision not to accept Michael [G. Wilson] and Barbara [Broccoli]’s very generous offer to direct the next Bond movie,” Mendes said. “Directing Skyfall was one of the best experiences of my professional life, but I have theatre and other commitments, including productions of Charlie And The Chocolate Factory and King Lear, that need my complete focus over the next year and beyond.”

No surprise about Mendes, he was a one and done from the start.

Adele is back on board for the theme song again though.

Really? Good; she can become the modern Shirley Bassey for the Bond films.
