Like the last militant feminist Star Wars films killed that particular franchise for me also, Spectre was the nail in the coffin of a passion I had held since the age of 5.

Of course, Blofeld (and SPECTRE) was the one villain Albert R. Broccoli didn't have the rights to - it was only before 'Spectre' went into pre-production that the producers managed to buy the rights from Kevin McClory's estate.
