I believe they still make an awful lot of money worldwide.
I watched them up through the last one with Halle Berry, but I won't watch any more because they're getting really absurd. Even though Bond is effectively a superhero of sorts, the stunts are just too unbelievable. Also, the movies used to be entertaining because they were well acted and stylishly filmed. Now, its just one ridiculous action scene to the next, like some sort of high brow Vin Deisel* garbage.
*How did a guy who seemed to be talented (See: Boiler Room) collapse into the shlock artist he's become? I'm glad to see him make money, but he's morphing into a Stallone-ish figure. He's way overdue for a real film where he actually acts.
