Well, they wanted an edgier, more cold-blooded Bond, which is truer to the Fleming character, and they got one. For me, Connery cut the right balance with his "and you've had your six" attitude, and the cartoon stuff went a bit over the top with Moore.

I'd love to see a Blofeld comeback. Even though different people played him, he was a terrific villain. And who knows, with Vlad trying to bring back the KGB and the Soviet Empire, we may have the Russians back as bad guys!

They could very easily bring SMERSH back as villians, because that was an old name for the Russian KGB.

With Blofeld, there are a lot of different guys who could play him well, but I dunno if they will ever do it, due to the legal problems they have with Kevin McClory regarding who really owns the Blofeld character.
