I love the nod to “Inglorious Bastards”, where Blofeld talks about meeting Swan at her father’s home as a little girl
It's not the same actress. This is Léa Seydoux. The actress in Inglourious Basterds was Mélanie Laurent.
Oh hey look at that. I was wrong. Léa Seydoux WAS in Inglorous Basterds. My bad, @NickSmyth4050!
@@LokRevenant Yeah cause you f**ked with my head there. I was thinking, "what?! really?"
@@nicksmyth4050 I thought you meant she was the actress who played Shosanna. THAT was Mélanie Laurent. I had forgotten that Léa Seydoux played the daughter of the farmer at the beginning of the movie.
Dave Bautista is perfectly casted as Blofeld's Henchman and Second in Command of Spectre Mr. Hinx. He's like a cross between Terminator and Nemesis from Resident Evil 3
Spectre is underrated, it’s a different vibe and I like it.
And the cast is just jaw droppingly good.
Underrated lmao good one
It’s probably my favourite Craig film
True
Script fucked up
I enjoyed all the Craig - Bonds because he seemed more "human" than the others. No Time To Die IS the last of Daniel Craig and I thought it was actually a pretty good wrap up for his version of Bond. I think you'll like it.
Despite that he pulls of bulls**t that no normal human being can do..
Lea Seydoux is an underrated actress. Amazing in almost everything she does.
No matter what you think of the whole movie, the beginning chase sequence (incl. the long take in preparation for 1917) is objectively remarkable.
Agreed
Addie "what should we do now, sleep?" Oh Addie, this is Bond 😂
I personally enjoyed this one. Bautista was amazing! I love how far he's come since Guardians 1.
In June 1944, a mere two weeks after the D-Day invasion, Ian Fleming had lunch in Normandy, France with a fellow British Naval Intelligence officer who asked Ian about his plans after the war. Ian replied, "Writing the greatest spy novel."
hey Addie.... funfact about the Helicopter scene....
This the Bölkow Bo 105, a german helicopter, that is really able to do loopings and barrel rolls. In fact this BO.105 is in fact from Red Bull overpainted and the pilot is Chuck Aaron, a Red Bull pilot of the aerobatic team Flying Bulls.
The helicopter stunt is real
For the Explosion of Blofelds base they used 2223 gallons of fuel, around 32kgs of explosives and was all captured in one take - it became the biggest explosion in film history and a Guinness World Record holder.
@Addie Counts
In the oldest James Bond movies, Ernst Stavro Blofeld often appeared sitting in a chair stroking his white fluffy cat but never showing his face.
I love Christoph Waltz in everything he does (even though this wasn't my favorite Daniel Craig Bond film). Although the opening scenes are always fantastic!
SPECTRE (Special Executive for Counter-intelligence, Terrorism, Revenge and Extortion) is a fictional organization featured in the James Bond novels by Ian Fleming, as well as the films and video games based on those novels. Led by criminal mastermind Ernst Stavro Blofeld, the international organization first formally appeared in the novel Thunderball (1961) and in the film Dr. No (1962).
Thanks for your react, Addie. My absolute favorite Bond movie of all time and by far my favorite with Craig. The plot, the villain, pacing, scale, action, music, even the opening credits are all top notch. Sam Mendes is a great director, and Léa Seydoux is just an ornament to any movie. And yes: this could be a great finale to Craig's entire series. I still think that they shouldn't have make "No Time To Die" after such a laconic ending.
@@dayspring3459 no it's not. Cope.
"The man inside your head" always makes my spine crawl.
Fun fact: after the start of this movie, Mexico decided to have an annual Day of the Dead!
And they admitted that it had been inspired by the 007 film SPECTRE.
Christophe Waltz is the actor who played Ernest Stavros Blofeld the main agitator.
Waltz hails from the same country as Arnold Schwarzenegger, Austria.
I love Lea Seydoux as Dr Madeline Swann.
After this Craig series is done, you’re going to want to go back and watch all the preceding Bonds, those are all great movies.
Well, you might enjoy the original Bond films if you enjoy M, Moneypenny, and Q, because they're all in almost every single one of the other Bonds films.
I like when Bond starts to interrogate the mouse.
Lea Seydoux is an excellent actress. You might want to watch Blue is the Warmest Color for Pride month. It's a brilliant movie.
Even though I grew up on the original Bond films the ones with Craig are my favorite, they more accurately reflect the character of Bond in the novels: jaded, cold and calculating, occasionally charming, and damaged inside and out.
This is my second-favorite of the Craig films, I really, really enjoyed Spectre. I simply loved the complex layer of him protecting his former antagonist's daughter.
It has to be said Christoph Waltz. Is the one of the greatest villains in History, I don't think he's even trying. Evil casually.
P.S. Ralph Fiennes is right there also in this from Schindler's List
Judi Dench is M in GOLDENEYE (1995) and TOMORROW NEVER DIES (1997) and THE WORLD IS NOT ENOUGH (1999) all before Daniel Craig was cast as OO7.
Addie, I got a new appreciation for this film after watching you enjoy it! Note, the characters of M, Moneypenny, Q, and even Blofeld are throw backs to the original Bond films, from the 1960's, when those characters were established. You will LOVE the great "flirtations" between the original Bond -- Sean Connery, the true OG -- and the original Moneypenny (the divine Lois Mawell). Sean Connery is simply a treasure in his role as James Bond, the role/character he created for all others to follow. Those early films are so much fun and cool in a historic way. They give you a cool snapshot of the ethos of the Cold War/espionage-era; granted, it's rendered in an over-the-top way, in some ways, with gagets added and fantastic plot scenarios shown, but it's all based on actual facts. The creator of the Bond books, Ian Fleming, actually came from that world, during World War II and afterwards. He wrote Bond as a kind of fantasy version of himself, but the books were all informed by his experience in Intelligence work. Really cool backstory. I think, after seeing the Daniel Craig films, you should just go back in time and experience the original films -- at least the Sean Connery ones -- and see what you think! They are all super fun!
I loved Bond's car when he flicked the switch for atmosphere and it started playing Frank Sinatra!😜😂
Not exactly what he was looking for when being chased by Dave Bautista aka Hinx in his Ferrari.
SPECTRE stands for SPecial Executive for Counter-Terrorism, Revenge, and Extortion. This was the BIG organization Bond fought in the Sean Connery and George Lazenby films. In fact, Ernst Stavro Blofeld appeared in the "Blofeld Trilogy", played by three different actors...Donald Pleasance (You Only Live Twice), Telly Savalas (On Her Majesty's Secret Service), and Charles Gray (Diamonds Are Forever)...and all of them pale next to Christoph Waltz as Blofeld.
Oh Mme. Addie, can't wait till you see NO TIME TO DIE and introduce you to Monsieur et Mademoiselle Bond!!
28:08 -What do we do now? +sleep maybe? I don't know
You guessed it😂
SPECTRE was co-created by Ian Fleming and Kevin McClory in 1960 during their failed attempt to make the first Bond movie on their own. Because McClory sued Fleming in 1961, the future Bond producers (Broccoli & Saltzman) didn't have full rights to use SPECTRE by name after 1967. And they stopped using the character Blofeld after 1971.
If you love costume /wardrobe and if you love Judy Densch
Then the film you must absolutely not miss is
“Shakespeare In Love”
It’s fantastic
With regards the fight scene on the train between Bond & Hinx.
Hinx was played by Dave Bautista who I gather was a professional wrestler in the United States and obviously they had to practice some moves and Bautista said that Daniel Craig did really well and actually got him a good punch.
Luckily Dave doesn't hold a grudge.
If you havent already, I suggest watching the Bourne series.
I'm in a minority who actually prefer the second half of this film to the first. Craig's Bond just works better when the stakes become more personal. And that train fight is great - Dave Bautista being one of the few villains who can actually out-heavy Daniel Craig.
Both Lea Seydoux and Christophe Waltz return in No Time To Die (2021).
You are absolutely correct in that it is Daniel Craig's final Bond film.
The next Bond film after NTTD hasn't even been started on yet.
Barbara Broccoli and Michael G Wilson made a statement in 2022 with regards the next Bond actor and movie. In it they said that work would not really begin for at least 2 years and that was sometime in mid-2022.
Broccoli said that there are no names in the frame as to who will replace Daniel Craig, and that they would have to sit down and discuss what sort of direction they wanted to take the franchise in before drawing up a list of suitable candidates to take on the role of 007.
So, I think that we can safely assume that there will be no real information to be had on who the next 007 will be or anything about the next film in the Bond film franchise before summer 2024 at the earliest.
Broccoli has also gone on to say that the next Bond movie will not be until at least 2025 or even 2026 but there should be a film before the end of 2027.
France and all of mainland Europe is accessible to cars from the UK via numerous ferries carrying cars and passengers and the Eurostar rail link between London and Paris that also carries cars. It is basically possible to drive from the UK to Europe.
Hi Addie. Really enjoyed your reaction as ever. Fun fact; The safe house 'Hildebrand' isn't a random name. It pays homage to a short Bond story written by Ian Fleming entitled 'The Hildebrand Rarity' of which the plot was used in Octopussy. See ya
I don’t think I know anyone as jumpy as Addie 😂
"I am kind of getting excited" muhahahahaha
If you have a hard time relating to Bond in the Craig movies you really won’t like any of the other Bonds. This is the most human and realistic version of the character.
The Love Bug 1968, Walking with Dinosaurs The Movie 2013, Looney Tunes Back In Action 2003, Angry Birds 2016, Pixels 2015.
Bond: "Vodka martini"
Bartender: "Shaken or stirred?"
Bond: "Do I look like I give a damn?"
The moment Daniel Craig took the reigns and 007 darker, and I will love it forever.
Obviously it's not this movie but that was their way of making elbow room in a way. Breaking the mold without breaking the character
What I like about the 007 movies is that each one had an identity of their own, because each movie was done by a different director
Sam Mendes should've left the franchise while he could
“Done by a different director”, a lot of Bond movies have been done by the same director, as many as 4 or 5.
@@Shadi092986 but not recently
Monica Bellucci : "James, don't go"
Me : "aight, babe"
yeah, I could never be a secret spy
Exciting reaction!
This one is super underrated. This one and Skyfall are tied as my favorite DC Bonds. It felt good to get Blofeld and the SPECTRE organization back, it tied everything together well.
I'm excited for you to see No Time to Die
This is an underrated bond film but this one HAS the Bond formula: from, finally, the gunbarrel back at the beginning, some small jokes here and there to Blofeld himself after so many years and a henchman! A good Bond movie imo, not as good as Casino Royale nor Skyfall or some previous ones like License to Kill, but a good all around Bond movie
this movie has so many easter eggs/throwbacks to the classic Connery and Moore movies I hope you get to watch those at some point, but I dont think that is gonna be the case :D
Enjoyed the reactions, Bond has it all, my opinion, thanks for sharing 😊🙏👍✌️🇺🇸
Thunderball will always be my favorite Bond movie.
After the masterstroke that was Skyfall, this one seemed a bit more by-the-numbers Bond film, but still enjoyable, I liked it.
Skyfall is the peak Bond movie to me, followed by Casino Royale. But all Craig movies have something going for them
It's hard to beat Skyfall, but Spectre is really good. Getting into the back story of Bond and his ties to Blofeld is great. The action is solid. Lea is just amazing in the role. We get the largest explosion filmed in this one too. No Time to Die is an extremely fitting end to things, and pulls so many things together very beautifully.
The next one is my favorite
18:38 Moriarty from Sherlock
The Bond film that made me love Quantum of Solace, Die Another Day and Diamonds are Forever.
As good as the newer Bond films are, at some point you definitely should go back & watch the originals, starting with the Sean Connery films (specifically 'Dr.No').
The next one is finominal. I know you'll definitely love it with all the emotion in it. Very much like skyfall
wait for no time to die!!
To see more of the M you like I suggest checking out the Bronson Bond movies. I also think the two Dalton Bond movies are great also.
Again, nothing against the other Bond actors, just not a fan of older movies much..
Oh it's gonna be interesting to see your reaction to the next one "No Time To Die"
Addie literally enhances every movie and show she watches 💯 #thingsanADDIEaddictsays #proudAteammember
The only Daniel Craig 007's I liked were Casino Royale, and (to a much less extent) Skyfall. The other three were not good, especially this one. You really should check out the earlier Bond films, they were far more fun, as the writers and directors didn't take themselves so seriously back then.
18:44
Armies and governments have been making the mistake of confusing technological superiority for physical dominance since forever. The US and Europe had to learn it again in the Afghan war when it was rediscovered-- and subsequently re-forgotten-- that drones and signals intelligence can only do so much without recon and field officer support. No matter what the battle if you can't hold your ground you can't win, and you're not holding anything without physical assets on the ground.
If you take all the Craig films as a whole then it's pretty good. I'm a Christoph waltz fan
Hi addie
Spectre gives me the strange feeling that nobody wants to do this movie. Even the car chase looks sterile and has no tension at all. Shooting sequence (escape after head drilling) looks like a late Steven Seagal.
However, NTTD is even worse.
Exactly. I miss the days when you could tell the filmmakers were having fun making a Bond movie. The Craig era has sucked all the joy and excitement out of the franchise.
Thank you. Please take a look at "The Good Thief" (2002)
Almost the entire opening shot has Bond and Co. moving 'against' the flow of traffic so obviously it becomes distracting.
I don’t get the hate for this one, admittedly I do have fond memories of seeing it in IMAX (and then a week later where the beginning was drowned out by the weather. Pitfalls of having a cinema mere feet from the sea) but I do enjoy it.
"I trust Bond... pretty much". Would you trust him with your car though ? :)
It's funny nowadays that you have a younger actor playing Q who has the jokea and Bond giving him a dirty look when he disrespects something 007 holds dear like his old Aston Martin.
For many decades it was the other way around when Desmond Llewellyn was Q.
I like this movie
I'd ride off into the sunset with Lea Seydoux 8 days a week and twice on Sunday!!😍
The muscle man is Batista a famous professional wrestler
Seems you didn't notice
If they make another BLADE RUNNER
They need to bring Hoyte Van Hoytema
A new one is being make, but the writer's strike has put it on hold. The title is BLADE RUNNER: 2099
How could the guy in the white suit be alive he was in the room when the bomb went off, and it brought down the whole building.
Hey Addie I noticed you had comments turned off on your JoJo Rabbit video, was it because of the subject matter, was just wondering:)? By the way, the mom being killed caught me by surprise as well, despite all the foreshadowing:)?
nice
I love Daniel Craigs Bond, he just blows shit up like you would in a video game, no need for sexy gidgets and gadgets, mf old fashoined lol.
I've liked this movie more than most. There are some really good story choices and some terrible ones as well as some great scenes and some terrible ones. The terrible ones are what keeps this from being one of the greats, which will always be a source of frustration for me, but still I'm able to enjoy this one.
I didn't see the next one. So not sure how it is.
❤❤❤❤❤
John Wick movie ❤
so you are having a hard time getting into these movies... I hope you are enjoying them somewhat at least...and you do seem to be enjoying them.
For me...I've said this before, but I only liked the first 2 Craig Bond movies. And I dislike the rest of his, especially his last one. What it is for me is the writing. Little by little, movie by movie Bond is slowly written to be a different character than he has been for the previous 20+ movies in the franchise. And I grew up with the original Bond movies, the Sean Connery and Roger Moore mainly, then again I grew up in the 70's and 80's.
It was always, no matter who played Bond or who wrote and produced and directed the Bond movie, you always knew you'd get Bond. And the Daniel Craig movies is a different character!
If you take the name "Bond" out of it and just see it as a generic spy/action movie then they are good movies...mostly... but certainly not Bond movies.
In my opinion of course!
This movie's finale should have taken place at Blofeld's lair instead of returning back to London. The movie lost momentum there. But I definitely see why Sam Mendes wanted to do this movie after Skyfall, as this one got to feature some of the Roger Moore era elements, but it was definitely an underwhelming faollow-up. Still good though for sure.
A lot of people did not like this movie when Irma came out, but I thought it was brilliant. It’s funny, but movies most people love (like Skyfall) I found less than stellar, and other movies most people find less than stellar (like SPECTRE) I love. Oh well.
Glad to see someone else who wasn't a fan of Skyfall. I don't get the love for that movie.
That's the interesting thing about the Bond series -- apart from a few undisputed classics, most fans have wildly differing opinions on most of the movies. You don't really see that in many other franchises.
And I agree that "Skyfall" may have usurped "Goldfinger" as the most overrated Bond movie; I mean, it has the same basic premise as "GoldenEye," FFS. Of course, on the other side, I happen to like the highly polarizing "Moonraker" quite a bit.
This had its moments but it almost feels like the director decided to take acid and watch too many Wes Anderson movies during the filming.
😎👍
Jojo Rabbit movie about one of the worst censorers - disabled comments, wow...
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I'm on the fence with this film. On the one hand it's beautifully shot, the actors are all amazing in their parts, the action is on point as well as the usual Bondisms. But I just...don't understand what's going on in this one. Even on a second watch it's still going over my head why Bond took it on himself to help Swan and why he then goes into Blofelds base to confront him...with the woman he's trying to protect from them. It just feels like he's only doing these things to advance the story.
Daniel Craig is 100% best Bond & the last few films were awesome!
Air = Ejecto-Seato-Cuzz
Excellent reaction, Addie. Spectre (2015) was the second Daniel Craig James Bond movie that I saw in theaters, but not in IMAX though. This was also the first Daniel Craig James Bond movie, and overall first James Bond movie since Die Another Day (2002), to be Filmed In Panavision (anamorphic). The gunbarrel sequence at the beginning is how a James Bond movie usually opens. Casino Royale (2006) had one that seagued into the main title sequence and Quantum of Solace (2008) & Skyfall (2012) had it at the end. The opening shot in this movie inspired director Sam Mendes to film his next movie, 1917 (2019) as if it were a one-shot. Next stop, No Time To Die (2021).
Speaking of Christoph Waltz, I also suggest Inglourious Basterds (2009) & Alita: Battle Angel (2019). #MoreChristophWaltzForAddieCounts
I thought Moneypenny was a great addition to this series.

While the movie is good, I do have my issues with it. I find it too convenient that it turned out that SPECTRE was behind everything since Casino Royale. I know that they were initially intending for this to be the finale of the Daniel Craig Bond movies and they wanted to tie up the story, but it just felt too contrived. Also, making Blofeld into Bond's adoptive brother felt totally unnecessary. Their personal connection also added more contrivance to the story, as I have a hard time believing that the adoptive brother of the world's top spy would become the mastermind behind the world's top criminal organization.
There have been bigger contrivances in the Bond series, but I don't know why this one seems to get shit on more than others for it. 🤔
