    If there is a press conference next week, we will learn about it tomorrow.

    Probably not. 1-3 days before.
    They will have to send out the invites more than 3 days in advance...

    Newman needs to be far away from Bond 25 as possible.

    Hopefully Mendes will make sure he's busy, we certainly don't want anymore rush jobs on the score like his cut and paste SPECTRE fiasco.

    The SPECTRE soundtrack is repetitive but by no means a fiasco. The romantic tracks (Madeleine, Donna Lucia, Secret Room, End Titles) are among the most beautiful I've ever heard on the series - to be honest I prefer them over some pieces of Barry and Arnold in a sense they are more subtle and poignant. In fact, if I had to pick between the soundtracks of Skyfall and SPECTRE I'd pick the latter without a shadow of doubt. It's a hundered times more Bondian and this time Newman isn't scared of playing with the James Bond Theme (Detonation, Los Muertos Vivos Están, the unreleased gunbarrel and Bond Theme riff before the main titles). I can understand SPECTRE has many weak points, but to me the soundtrack is definitely not one of them.



    This brings back memories of Eric Serra's "For Ever, James" but like 10 times more poignant. I hear this and the first thing that comes to my mind is love and careness, like a feeling of a truly romantic love.

    I didn't mind the SF score and Newman may well have created more of an original score than we heard but to me I kept hearing not particularly different arrangements in SPECTRE.

    Possibly the recycling is down to Mendes, another reason for not to ever let him near Bond again.

    Newman may well be part of a family with a rich legacy of scoring and song writing talent and yes his work outside of Bond is highly regarded but you have to get Bond and he doesn't in my view.

    He gets stamping his own style all over the film, he's not scoring a Bond film he's making sure it's a Thomas Newman score first and foremost.

    Arnold might not have his CV when it comes to scoring but Arnold knows Bond and where I don't like everything he's done, his CR and particular QOS scores to my ear are far more memorable and Bondian.

    Newman doesn't deserve to be in the same sentence as Barry in my view.

    The offical 007 instagram account hasn't posted anything Craig related in 3 weeks and now they posted this:


    Are they getting ready to announce the date of the presser soon?

    It's a photoshoot from SP, but could be anything. I have a gut feeling that we will hear something official in 4 days.

    They have begun shooting the new Bond movie, and the first official thing we get is an old picture of Daniel Craig? Not very current.

    There has only been 2 truly great Bond scores in the past 30 years: the scores of GE and SF. Hopefully the score of Bond 25 will join them as the 3rd truly great post-Barry score.

    For me - both GE and SF - were the two lowpoints the last 30 years. But I don't hate Arnold.

    Or at the very least, start your posts with "Not to go off topic, but..." and end them with "and now back to B25!".

    For me GE/CR/SF. I had great first experience watching those out of last 8 films, other's are average imo.

    Even though it's a spectre shoot, they are teasing us with a bond 25 announcement I believe. I think it's 5th april the reveal not the 1st

    I suppose

    The article says:

    "While the Daily Mail reported that Craig himself flew to a “secret location” to begin filming"

    What secret location.Do anyone have any idea about that?

    I'm not convinced that is an IMAX camera.

    Thank you. I'm sorry. I unfortunately saw a hook baited with horseshit and to my shame, I took it.

    What do you think it is, then? It looks like one to me.

    It’d be unfortunate if we don’t get the conference next week, but I still feel way better knowing the filming process has actually started. We’re likely to get more and more tidbits along the way, regardless of when the conference is.

    I hope to see some official reveals from EON, press conference, the title, by May 1. That seems a safe bet. Next week? I wouldn't get too excited! (I'd love to be wrong though :) )

    Yes, this has been a very encouraging week on all fronts on the whole. Next week should be even better.
