This scene is about as British as you can get. Dry sarcasm bordering on contempt wrapped up in mutual respect. Love it.

[@ziararhi9065]

What I love about this is that the original films had the younger Bond irritate the older Q with his wit. Here it's almost as if the tables are turned.

[@theshadowforger775]

The way Bond says "Excuse me" as if to say "I'm waiting for someone else", and then the sigh when Q says "007". Comedy gold.

[@franktrandicostacomedy3370]

Having Q played by such a young actor is genius

[@greentravels2850]

I've always loved how Bond immediately sizes Q up as non-threat; merely humouring him until he mentions "007". Treating him as just a (possibly annoying) art student sharing a critique on a canvas; never more on guard than he needs to be.

This scene is sooooo British. I love the dry sarcastic banter.

[@ABrocavich]

Perfectly written scene. Having characters look at art and say why they see is a brilliant way to define characters.

[@aden0card871]

Bond doesn't sit on his jacket like a distinguished gentleman while young Q's jacket is all wrinkly from sitting on it. I just love that contrast.

[@stwilson3550]

"Please return the equipment in one piece." Heh, Q is an optimist.

[@bushyfromoz8834]

I love how in that short exchange, they have instant mutual respect for each other.

[@midnightflare9879]

"You're expecting an exploding pen?"

[@jayparmo2284]

Skyfall: please return the equipment in one piece.

[@MawileMage]

"You were expecting an exploding pen? We don't really go in for that anymore."

Meeting Q in Skyfall: "Oh you gotta be kidding me"

[@Nero-ox5tw]

This ASMR video has insane production quality.

[@ToraVanguard2004]

"It's called a hard stare, Mr Bond. My Aunt Lucy taught me to do them when people had forgotten their manners."

[@jg772006]

If there was one thing ABSOLUTELY PERFECT about "SKYFALL", "SPECTRE", and "NO TIME" ... it was the chemistry between Craig and Whishaw as "Bond" and "Q". They were PERFECT for each other!

[@gauravtributes5023]

I want Ben to stay as Q for next bond as well, he is fantastic in the role.

[@WH250398]

The dialogue in Skyfall is consistantly brilliant

I watched this scene after finished watching "No time to die",
