Only an alias for Blofeld though, was it not?

yes

With that nugget of news it all now makes sense. With Christoph Waltz already stating he is not returning to the role of Blofeld but Lea Seydoux already signed on to return in 25 we are not going to see the first female Bond but the first transgender Blofeld. Madeleine Swann will be killed off and Blofeld will get surgery to look like her in order to continue his/her vendetta against 007.....

Yes. He and Irma Bunt (from OHMSS), set up a suicide park in Japan. Bond does Tiger Tanaka, head of Japanese Secret Service, a favour and tries to eliminate 'Shatterhand'.shootevil

Pre-Judging a Bond film? 1 / 007.

Quantum has improved over time I think.

Spectre is the only Bond film I don’t want to see again.

Agreed; the first half or so of Quantum is not bad. It's when they went to Bolivia that it got dull for me. Apart from Fields, of course.

Quantum would have been so much better if it had a menacing baddie. The Dominic Green character was just so week.

I enjoyed QoS back when few did. It has it's weaknesses, and I don't like Mattias buying it.

I've always liked QoS. It's so stylish. Yes the baddie is useless, but it has good action, a good car chase and lots of moody camera action. The flying over the lake at the start with the music warning of something coming then the immediate cut to the Aston at full tilt.

Thing with Gemma Arterton is she is insanely attractive but the flasher Mac and awful wig they made her wear really ruined the effect.

I love the opera scene where the scene from the opera and music blends into the gun fight in the restaurant and the haunting music.

Whatever the historical significance is ,Shatterhand is a terrible title.

I enjoy first 5 minutes of Quantum for the Lake Garda Chase,drove it myself last year.

Don't like the end of Casino,seeing Vesper drown.

Quick heads-up. A stuntman who has doubled for Rami Malek has confirmed he's been signed on for Bond 25 and posted on Instagram with a couple of unsubtle references to Mr Robot (the hoodie) and Bohemian Rhapsody (the post ended 'We will rock you' - since removed).

Guess we know for sure now who's playing the villain.
