"2014 will go to Bond history as the year when Christmas came early. Although the return of SPECTE was a much expected one it is nevertheless very exciting news for the millions of Bond fans around the world. The cast and crew that were revealed today evidently prove that the producers have done their best to out-perform the last film (Skyfall)."
