Those ruins were creepy as heck and reminded me of one of the dreamscapes in "Paprika" or run down amusement park in "Spirited Away".Roman J.

"Skyfall" also has the benefit of some of the best camera work in any James Bond film. Amazing visuals in this one.Roman J.

I think they wanted to revamp the whole series and give it a new look and feel. They really needed to as I think the franchise had gotten stale. I like James Bond, but I don't want to think of him in Superman terms. I like him to be a little human and have some foibles.
