    Ugh, two movies that have no business making it this far. I really don't understand the love for Skyfall, it is not even top 15 bond movie for me. (but I still voted for it, since I hated the other choice)

    It has its flaws, but Skyfall is easily top 10 Bond. Maybe, maybe Top 5.

    Ok, just counted, there are 10 bonds I feel are definitely better, and 5 that depending on my mood might consider to be better.

    In Skyfall, he fails at everything he tries, and the villain achieves his objective.

    But isn't that the appeal of Craig's Bond? He's more grounded and realistic.

    I like both a lot. Voted Skyfall. (How can anyone dismiss this as a lesser Bond film?), but have no issues with Live. Die. Repeat. moving on if it comes to that.
