Had to make sure I had it. Yep, the new Red Grant (Bautista) had his final showdown on a train. There were other such homages all through the film. But, the finality of Craig's run was announced when he went to Q and got the DB5. "I thought you were gone?" Craig: "I am . . . "
So, this is the "happy ending" for Craig's Bond and it, in a sense, resets the series to be possibly be recycled. I do hope M and Moneypenny are held over the for new series.
I presume Craig has a mattress full of Euros because nothing he's done outside of 007 has ever caught fire. I noticed he was a producer of this film so maybe he's going to flourish in another direction?
