All of a sudden Bond seems that he will be a little more ofthe traditional Bond,, as the rumor mill starts going crazy with Bond 23screenwriter John Logan making some curious remarks at a BAFTA Screenwriterslecture Tuesday. /Film points out this article at WhatCulture! that said:

"Rather interestingly, during the talk last night Loganwas reminded by an audience member of a quote that he said some ten years agothat, in his opinion, 'Bond should always fight Blofeld'. When pressed on thishe gave a wry smile and said 'Bond should always fight Blofeld'."
