Hey now, I agree with everything else you said, but Blofeld was excellent. Any scene with him in it was pretty much gold. He may have been basically playing the same character he did in Inglorious Basterds, but it's such a good character that who gives a ****?

Hard to pinpoint why exactly the character made no impression on me. It was certainly not because I felt he was rehashing something. Wouldn't matter to me anyway. Waltz is a great actor and it wasn't even that his acting here was bad. He just wasn't given any memorable scenes or lines to work with.
