Saw Skyfall last night. Very dubious plot but great action scenes, goot touches of humour and well-acted. Certainly the best Bond since Connery and arguable the best of the lot.

How did Bardem fare as the villain?

Superb -  camp & menancing can be hard to pull off but he did it beautifully.

007 isn't a man so much as he is a title, and the cardinal rule is that if he's cool, it's all good.

Late to the thread.  I agree.  It doesnt matter what colour the skin is as long as the actor can pull off being Bond.

You know what would be a refreshing change? A British actor who did not attend a private school or Oxbridge or make his name with a believable American accent achieving any sort of critical acclaim  <_<
