They have a few things working in their favor: 1. They have a history with Boyle, having been tapped to perform at the 2012 Olympics opening ceremonies; 2. Boyle may be more likely to go with a rock song; 3. They're, well...damn good; 4. It's time for a British band to do it: hasn't been done since Duran Duran in 1985.
He did it brilliantly on CR and would again I am sure if given the chance.
Yeah - I personally think it's a real shame. One of the most distinctive aspects of the Bond sound was that integration of the title song into the score.
When Newman allowed us to hear brief snippets of Adele's and Smith's songs in SF and SP the scores were instantly elevated to something richer and more interesting. So much more could have been done on that front. A shame Newman had to be forced to do it at gun point.
There are, and I agree. There is more to Bond than Barry (great though he was). He is irreplaceable.
Ultimately they have to move forward and strive for a new sound. I've respected all the composers who have attempted that (radical though their sound may have been for the series), and haven't liked those who have not.
I do not think that that was ever confirmed. @marketto007 might be right, in that the photo might have been part of a photo shoot in Spain. I looked at the photos: DC is definitely wearing a black tux, as seen here. However, you don't go all the way to Spain, especially to Cardona, for a simple photo shoot. There had to be more.
Is his hair looking silver or is it just the lighting?
There was more. A chase with a taxi and some cars involved...
It's hard not to get excited when seeing Craig all Bond-esque. Furthermore? I'm a huge fan of the Brosnan era Omegas which Craig wore in the latter half of CR. It's nice to see a legit worthy update to such an iconic model. Unlike our good friend @ClarkDevlin I love the PO and the 2012 to 2016 era blue ATs. Hope Bond goes back to wearing this SM300 but on the bracelet.
It's a hint. Bond 25 is titled Come and Dive.
The massive numbers on the bezels. The protruding 3D wave designs on the dial. The glass back. Pretty tacky, imo.
Still, Craig looks cool.
