I found Skyfall to be an uncomfortable mix of classic Bond over-the-topness, and Bourneish/Nolanish 'realism'. 

Either Bond is superman, or he gets old and has to retire.  Can't have it both ways.

If you head into a gun fight with 30 year old intel on where the guns are-  don't be surprised if someone moved them while you were out.

Fix that (if you can) and maybe I will have some use for Skyfall.  As it is now, it's too silly to be serious and too serious to be fun. 

(And maybe add a post credits scene of Kevin from Home Alone waking up and it was all a dream.  If you keep the Home Alone action at the end, that is... which it sounds like you're not.)

 Sounds as though somebody needs to start reading the Ian Fleming books and stop basing the Daniel Craig version on current trends. I'd hate to see a fan edit of SKYFALL only because once again someone forgot to read a bulk of the OO7 books.
