Some would argue that it goes completely against everything Bond, but I like it more. With this series it doesn't seem easy. He's confident and shit goes his way, but it is not nearly as easy for him as it was in previous series'. Fat man approves.

I've only read one of the Bond books, The Man With the Golden Gun I think it was. I thought it was interesting at the time that it was unlike the Bond movies. He didn't use any gadgets.
It was more realistic than the films. I remember he had to assasinate a guy with a revolver. He turned the cylinder a little when he was getting ready so he could fire quicker. That was the sort of detail that was used in the book, not any sort of gadgets. Maybe the producers/directors are sort of going back to the book style.
