    I’ve enjoyed the Craig era scores more than not, but a genuine collaborative process with the title song between artist and composer would have immensely made the scores richer.

    About the composer, any news regarding Romer? Is he in or out? I remember Elfman admitting his work on Justice League ended up really rushed because he didn't have enough time... and he was hired 5 months before the release date. So IF that rumor is indeed true, it's time to find a replacement. There is always the possibility that they already have one, but didn't announce it yet.

    OR that Romer didn't leave at all, and that the rumour is untrue. Anyway, I don't think EON will make an announcement à la "We have got a new composer!".
    If they indeed got someone else, the earliest we might notice is when they put out a new poster with a text block underneath, and someone else's name is next to 'Music by'.

    Really OT:

    Nicholas Buc, Composer | Conductor | Arranger:
    Calling all Bond fans! This weekend we’ve got 3 performances with the @sydneysymphonyorchestra of #SkyfallinConcert at the @sydneyoperahouse. #DanielCraig #Sydney #SydneySymphonyOrchestra #SydneyOperaHouse #JamesBond


    I'm going to this tomorrow night. Super pumped. I saw Casino Royale in the Opera House too with the orchestra. Just incredible. The chase between Bond and Mollaka left me sweating due to the tension of the live music, despite watching the film a thousand times.

    Nothing feels more Bond than watching one of his films at the Opera House. Now I just need him to actually come down here and film!

    Just got home from seeing it. Think I enjoyed more than CR!

    Well of course. IF the rumor is true. Anyway, if an important member of the crew has been replaced by another one, the news is usually quickly reported by the media. Never heard about blockbusters of this size where people find out a big crew member change from the theatrical posters... but this production is so secretive that every option seems possible.

    I don't think anyone is arguing that playing Bond isn't knackering.

    I think the point is more that lots of other things are, too: being a school teacher, a bricklayer, a nurse, a truck driver . . . all those jobs are exhausting, and they don't pay a million bucks. They also don't involve a few years off between gigs, or the chance to travel around the world in top class, or your choice of well-paid side-gigs.

    Make no mistake, Craig is my favourite Bond. But "this is such a hard job" is never going to garner much sympathy from a millionaire actor when he's talking to a room of regular slobs with actual hard jobs.

    Not just a million bucks, there's also all those sweet little back end deals and promotions. How many brickies can get a promotional deal for CAT? Acting might be hard work, but then, actors are paid well... very well.

    Yes, I would've expected it got picked up by the mainstream trades by now, so that's why I'm leaning towards 'false rumour' at the moment. With the poster I meant earliest possible confirmation by EON, as they usually don't respond to what gets written, even if it's 100% correct. But I agree: normally these things get picked up by industry journalists. And if Romer's off the project, wouldn't they have written about that too? And listed possible replacements? The fact that it stays silent for so long, doesn't make the rumour credible.

    Only three songs in the last 25 years from 8 films have been interwoven with the scores, one of them being rejected and relegated to the end credits.

    Until then, I’m not expecting it to happen.

    All four Craig films have featured the song’s melody in the score.

    There's a difference of quantity between 'interwoven' and 'featured'. The only one truly interwoven is YKMN.

    Who cares? Honestly. And QoS's one is all the way through that movie: the whole film even ends on a quote from it.

    Exactly. A token appearance of a title song only playing for few seconds (or barely anything noteworthy at all in QOS) is not exactly the same as richer Bond scores in the past with Barry doing entire tracks with different variations.

    Of the Michael and Barbara era, TWINE and YKMY are the only titles to be properly elaborated throughout the scores, with TND only featuring the rejected “Surrender”.

    Fair point. I must say I like it more when only bits of the melody are woven into other tracks (the way Arnold did with AWTD in Field Trip) but I do wish it was done more often and the song should indeed get at one full instrumental arrangement in the score (I guess you're talking about tracks like Bond meets Tatiana, Alpine Drive, Dance with Domino, That's my little Octopussy and Bond meets Stacy). Those are some of Barry's finest tracks indeed and perfectly accompany the scenes they're played in.

    First cue that always pops into my head in this regard is Oddjob's Pressing Engagement.

    The way Barry moves from the title song to the Bond theme and then back again is masterful. So, so good.

    The obvious answer is that quite a few people do, evidently.

    And the obvious answer is 'why'? It makes no difference. You didn't notice it in QoS so why would you notice it elsewhere? I like it sometimes, sometimes I'm not bothered. It doesn't make a great score on its own either way.

    I don't think it's been overly secretive at all to be honest. They've done plenty of little bits to keep the fans happy, from the nice official key image of Bond in front of the V8, the making of snippet, behind the scenes visits, the Goldeneye launch, title reveal... they're busy trying to make a film but I think they've done just the right amount of interaction. And that's not including all of the paparazzi photos which I'm not convinced aren't sometimes a little stage-managed..

    At this stage into production NTTD is by far the most secretive recent Bond. Not a problem if you ask me but man, but this is basically a fact. Just think about the title alone. In the last two we knew far more stuff regarding the film*, at this stage, almost five months before the premiere.

    Absolutely. Although I am hoping the composer weaves more of the song's theme into the film than Newman did.

    About the composer, any news regarding Romer? Is he in or out? I remember Elfman admitting his work on Justice League ended up really rushed because he didn't have enough time... and he was hired 5 months before the release date. So IF that rumor is indeed true, it's time to find a replacement. There is always the possibility that they already have one, but didn't announce it yet.

    OR that Romer didn't leave at all, and that the rumour is untrue. Anyway, I don't think EON will make an announcement à la "We have got a new composer!".
    If they indeed got someone else, the earliest we might notice is when they put out a new poster with a text block underneath, and someone else's name is next to 'Music by'.

    Well of course. IF the rumor is true. Anyway, if an important member of the crew has been replaced by another one, the news is usually quickly reported by the media. Never heard about blockbusters of this size where people find out a big crew member change from the theatrical posters... but this production is so secretive that every option seems possible.


    I don't think it's been overly secretive at all to be honest. They've done plenty of little bits to keep the fans happy, from the nice official key image of Bond in front of the V8, the making of snippet, behind the scenes visits, the Goldeneye launch, title reveal... they're busy trying to make a film but I think they've done just the right amount of interaction. And that's not including all of the paparazzi photos which I'm not convinced aren't sometimes a little stage-managed..

    At this stage into production NTTD is by far the most secretive recent Bond. Not a problem if you ask me but man, but this is basically a fact. Just think about the title alone. In the last two we knew far more stuff regarding the film*, at this stage, almost five months before the premiere.

    *without taking the leak into account.

    Can you disregard the leak? It revealed the entire film.

    I'm sure after the Release of "NTTD", we are hearing some words from MGW or BB "We need a break, the production of Bond 25 was so exhausted..."

    To be fair they are both getting on, I'm not surprised. Even Daniel is in his fifties now.

    They need to introduce fresh blood with Bond 26 or just sell the rights entirely. If Babs said she won't make another film without Craig then perhaps number 25 is the perfect note to hand things off to another team who are passionate and eager.

    Cubby never let exhaustion stop him making Bond movies into his late 70s. Babs is not even 60
