I hate it when a big franchise or series ends up making the entire story revolve around the personal life of the protagonist.

For me the appeal of Bond was this unknown secret agent uncovering some big bad plot from some bad guy we knew little about art the start. I want it to be about uncovering the conspiracy and finding a way to stop it against all odds.

I do not want it to be able Bond's relationship with his mother (or mother figure).

imho the best Bond script was 'From Russia, With Love." Other movies have better stunts and action, but FRWL is the only one that manages to make Bond a person without getting maudlin.
