Anyone think that Bond 24 won't be as good?

The nostalgia of it really gets me. I grew up on a farm in rural Canada. I'm not saying it resembled the Skyfall grounds, but it evokes a lot of 'cold winter' day/night feelings I can remember having. I loved it.

That's what I loved about Skyfall, it presented us with the old Bond tropes, but made them feel absolutely fresh again.

I have only seen it once so far (leaving for viewing two, right after I hit enter on this post), but I quite agree: the third act was incredibly awesome. I loved it for many reasons, least of which is that it was so different than what we've come to expect from a Bond finale, and yet at the same time it fits perfectly into what we expect from a Bond finale.
That's what I loved about Skyfall, it presented us with the old Bond tropes, but made them feel absolutely fresh again.
Couldn´t agree more, well said! That´s the whole thing in Skyfall: the old dog has learned some new tricks and the old ones felt fresh.

I don't consider SKYFALL to be the greatest thing since sliced bread, so I don't see why BOND 24 can't take it down.
I loved Skyfall but it can most certainly be improved upon. I think with a firmly establish M, Q, Moneypenny(love all three casting choices) the next one could be the total Bond experience minus the prequel/reboot element, which I look forward to.

Bring back Sam Mendes for a repeat. He developed the most authentic 007 since FRWT.
I was leary of Mendes doing a Bond film, I had faith in his story-telling abilities, but was concerned about his action movie abilities.
That is all put to rest now.
Bring Sam Mendes back for Bond 24. Full stop!!

I'm not 100% behind Mendes returning just yet, I'll have to see it a few more times but let someone else new direct and hold out on Mendes until they need him perhaps when they bring in a new Bond actor...
