However, this also brings the question of Bond somehow not being incapacitated by the procedure itself. Of course, all that talk might just have been to heighten the victim's horror, as the film itself seems to lampshade this as Bond has no problem recognizing people after his torture. Facial recognition has been mapped around the temple, which was ironically the previous location the drill went. That area in the human brain controls basic functions like motor functions and autonomous muscles. In the film this is said to be the result when the drill goes into something at the base of the neck. Furthermore, even the general area of the brain is all wrong. Higher brain functions like facial recognition are spread out over an area, so whether damaging such a tiny area would give the described result is already questionable.
Artistic Licence Biology: During the torture scenes, the descriptions of what drilling into specific parts of the brain will do are suspect at best. White's lines implies that Spectre is Quantum, just after mission drift and a strong change in plans (likely Bond disrupting its leadership), or that Quantum was Dominic Greene's own business (with Greene being a Spectre member nonetheless). Le Chiffre was clearly established as having worked for Quantum (and being killed for being unreliable) in the first two films, but references to those events in this film seem to imply that MI6 thought they were independent villains. This is a fairly unusual case, because the arc seems to have been unwelded just to weld it back together. Arc Welding: Blofeld claims that Spectre was behind the events of Casino Royale, Quantum, and Skyfall (supposedly, as it's entirely possible he was just attempting to rattle James). He holds an intense grudge against 007 because Oberhauser's father favuored an orphaned Bond over Franz, resulting in Oberhauser killing his own father out of jealousy, and faking his own death before going on to create a Nebulous Evil Organization and orchestrating many of Bond's tragedies since Casino Royale. Arch-Enemy: Is this to Daniel Craig's Bond, without a doubt. Animal Metaphor: Blofeld mockingly calls 007 a "cuckoo" for the resentment he felt for Bond as a foster brother. He mockingly calls Bond a "cuckoo" because the latter was favoured by Oberhauser's father when both were younger. Like his previous incarnations, he uses a black octopus as a symbol for Spectre, and has a white, fluffy cat. The Anticipator: Played for creepy effects with Oberhauser, who always seems to know when Bond will show up, even outfitting rooms in his Supervillain Lair with personal photographs for his 'guests'. Antagonistic Offspring: The fact that his father favoured Bond over him was enough to make Oberhauser kill him and destroy Bond's life. That's not even counting how outside of the film, the analogy still doesn't really hold up the meteor, other than being an inanimate object that can't "bide it's time", was in fact completely at the mercy of the forces (gravity from the sun, planets, and other astronomical bodies) around it. You can see the wind come out of Oberhauser's sails. Bond shoots back that the meteor actually did stop, and right where they're standing, in fact. When Bond and Swann arrive, he launches into a speech about how the meteor had waited up in space, silently biding it's time, before becoming an unstoppable force that changed the face of the Earth. Analogy Backfire: Oberhauser's facility is housed within a crater formed by a meteor, and he had the meteor itself put on display. "Blofeld" is his mother's maiden name, which he uses after symbolically rejecting the name his father gave him. 
Adaptation Name Change: In contrast to the original novels and the previous films, Blofeld's real name is revealed to be Franz Oberhauser.This is also shown by his deeds here being more in a Darker and Edgier direction compared to his previous incarnations, what with the Patricide, human trafficking, Cold-Blooded Torture, and Big Brother Is Watching.
He's more sadistic and petty than his previous incarnations, who were more along the lines of an icy-cold sociopath. Adaptational Villainy: Quite possibly the most violent and sinister incarnation of Blofeld so far.
