Will the return of SPECTRE see the return of SPECTRE villains?

...so, yeah. Would you like to see the return of SPECTRE villains such as Klebb, Grant, No and Largo bought into the new timeline? I personally would. Of course, Largo can never be the same due to Austin Powers, but the character could still be there. Maybe hints, a few quick appearances?

    Remember, the Craig Films are a Reboot.

    But I doubt that Klebb, Grant or Largo would be brought back.

    Short answer, no. But I guess some villains will evoke other, bygone villains...

    I suspect it will be inevitable, and I'm fine with it so long as they're done well.

    A big fat no from me. Blofeld should be the one and only villain they ever being back for the reboot.

    No thanks. I prefer new villains.

    I think that Hinx will turn out to be a great villain. I see a lot of Jaws in him, though not so over the top.

    A no from me. They were already done in the Connery films, and the only one I wouldn't complain about bringing back is Blofeld.

    Yes, apart from Blofeld, I'd rather not see any of the old villains return.

    I'd rather not see the return of old SPECTRE agents. Bring Blofeld back, but create new agents. Not sure if they should have physical abnormalities though.
    Have you ever heard of the Emancipation Proclamation?"

    Im expecting the movie to use the Spectre name for nostalgia sake and not have anything Spectre related in it.

    I want to be proven wrong though lol.

    To be honest given the state of world politics today, I think the producers are
    Very smart to bring back, or reinvent spectre. -{ . The Russians are't the bad
    Guys anymore ( although Putin, might be changing that point of view ) ;) and
    I can't see them wanting to involve 007 in the jihadist fight, as that's a little too
    Real.
    So as with the 60s having a criminal third party, saves a lot of awkward problems.
    Keeps Bond just enough in the real world without becoming bogged down in too
    Much realism.
    So for me spectre can't come soon enough ! {[]

    To be honest, I wouldn't mind if they also kept Blofeld in the past and reinvent the entire organization.

    I agree with leaving the villains in the past, save Blofeld, but re-invent the SPECTRE organization. However, I do think the villains should have a slight physical abnormality. Look how it worked in CR w/ Le Chiffre, and in Skyfall w/ Silva.. I thought that was brilliant, and it worked well at feeding Silva's revenge. I thought it made what Silva was doing that much more believable. The physical defects need to be subtle and somehow have a modern connection. After all, the physical abnormalities are such unique 'Bond-isms'. SPECTRE would be the perfect movie to bring a hint of that back, IMHO.
