I don't find convincing Craig's rapport with Q either... "Hello, Q, I've missed you!" His Bond is just too narcissistic to convincingly engage with anyone, really.
Critics and material I don't need. I haven't changed my act in 53 years.
I know there's been a lot of discussion about all the bio/nanobot shenanigans in this movie but I've never felt I've properly unpicked that side of it, if I'm honest, and I don't much care much for it, either. I've no problem with comic strip sci fi in Bond films provided the movie has a full-on comic strip ethos (MR or DAD). But when it gets mixed up with attempts at plausible human drama and weighty themes, as here, it seems tedious, out of place and associated with too much exposition/ info dumping.

I wasn't expecting Leiter to be killed off. It seemed too iconoclastic.
No, just because we have seen Dalton in it 😡

I love the „bigger desk“ banter

"I get why you shot him..." Brilliant line.
"Has this desk got bigger, or have you got smaller?" Naff line.
reminds me of Asp9mm barely be able to look over the steering wheel in his car….

If you want to know who Q is waiting for, see AJB presents William Shakespeare's James Bond in... - Page 2 — ajb007 Post 41

Yup!
Oh, I thought that was a secret.....
Ha, I can imagine that!
He's being somewhat sarcastic with that line.
😂 I know!
I think the Denfence Minister should've developed Herakles, not M.
....and the music just got 100% better again. Not too sure about the appropriateness, though.
OHMSS theme! Wonderful!

Yes, totally agree.
I agree but, believe it or not, it doesn't feel as shocking today as JW Pepper's exclamation "What the...?!" felt in the early 70s
You are not alone Shady,
I still don‘t understand the relevance of the blood sample/scratch and the connection to Mathilde
