Sky High Skyfall

With awards already under its belt, as well as numerous nominations, sky fall continues to rise, now entering the top ten highest grossing movies of all time.






The latest Bond movie Skyfall has had phenomenal success since it hit theaters last year. The movie has been nominated for 5 Oscars as well as 49 other nominations, and has won twelve awards so far. On top of its critical success, it has now passed The Dark Knight Rises to become the seventh highest grossing movie of all time.

Daniel Craig has also confirmed that he will not be leaving the Bond franchise just yet, as opposed to the current speculation on the topic.
"I' m going to keep going as James Bond until they tell me to stop." Craig told BBC on the set during production. The Bond superstar then went further to quell the rumors by signing on to do at least 2 more movies after Skyfall, although he is aware that he can't wear the tux forever. "I'm under no illusions  I know there'll be someone after me, and hopefully someone after them."

No great film is without its criticism however, and the guys over at Honest Trailers has just released their take, on this hugely successful film. Viewers beware though, the Honest Trailers always make you aware of things you didn't want to notice...
