We should note that I am, perhaps, somewhat
unqualified for this—I have never seen a James Bond movie. The sum total of my
Bond experience at present:
- The climax of Dr. No
- The laser scene of Goldfinger
- The first half of Die Another
Day, twice
- Skyfall
But what, I ask you, is the point of a long-running film series if
it is unable to draw in new viewers? Must we expect every potential Skyfall viewer to watch 22 movies before
sitting down to this one? And you can blame Adele for this, because the song
was so good that I got interested in the film itself, did some research, and eventually
sat down to see Skyfall this past Friday at 8:20 PM.
