![]() ![]() I thought CR did 'mysterious organisation' as good as any Bond film, just through drama and dialogue. Still, I wouldn't necessarily miss it, if it wasn't in. I largely agree with you, I think after SF I'm expecting more of this kind of larger than life stuff to creep back in, so I think I'll enjoy SP more having been forced to accept the tonal change from CR/QoS - SF. from "SPECTRE" so far reminds me a bit of a tightly organized fraternity. They look a bit like this:Īlthough no one is actually wearing them anymore, the S.P.E.C.T.R.E. ![]() If we do have to make a connection with the real world, then it would remind me of my own student fraternity ring from old days (student fraternities are very common in the USA and Netherlands). Like the previous film Skyfall, Spectre was written by John Logan, Neal Purvis and Robert Wade is directed by Sam Mendes and features Daniel Craig in his fourth performance as James Bond. And it brings in a welcome bit of unrealistic mystery. Spectre is the twenty-fourth film in the James Bond series produced by EON Productions. I disagree, the inclusion of this wunderful SPECTRE-item is 500% "Bond". The critical Bond fans were complaining that the trailer was too dark and moody, that "SPECTRE" has become too Nolan-esque, too realistic, and less "typical Bond". Personally, I was jumping in the air when I first saw the ring! Loved it. And the Bond universe is always, with certain details, slightly larger-than-life than the real world. I think this shows that even Bond films are still.films. 'Hey look at us, we're an uber-clandestine organisation that infiltrate every level of society, but you can easily identify us by our rings'. I felt the same about the ridiculous Q badge in QoS. Seems a bit odd in this era of films to have a glaringly obvious declaration of criminal intent. If I'm being honest, I wouldn't have missed the ring at all. ![]()
