Get the snare brushes out.
Hear, hear!
Insulting, irrelevant nonsense.
His two scores for the Craig era were among his best and added tremendously to both films ; his absence has been sorely missed. Having him return for Craig’s curtain call absolutely makes sense,particularly in that 25 is said to bring the events of CR full circle.
He has been where? "Has-been" needs a hyphen.
Okay, Dad.
He has been busy organising this big concert with Michael Giacchino, the Academy Award-winning composer of other big franchise films. Should be a great gig. They're both conducting their great music over the last few years in a neat little play on the "rap battle".
Not bad for a has-been.
Wow, that's brilliant!
He also has been making guest appearances at some 'Casino Royale with orchestra' screenings, so I actually don't think BB or MGW have forgotten him. He's still active within the Bond family.
But as I said: it does not guarantee that they will call upon him again. However, I reject the notion that EON doesn't want him anymore. The guy's been promoting Bond everywhere!
He once described it as like being part of a family. Once you're in, you're in.
His Good Omens soundtrack has earned him the best reviews of his career, and that's considering he's always been a bit of a darling amongst film score critics.
And no, much like you, I don't think it's a given that he will be called upon again. However, as long as whoever does get called (it could very well be Dan Romer) does it justice and gives us a full-blown, lush and romantic score with use of the title theme and some kick-ass action motifs, I'll be happy. Arnold can certainly do that. But so could someone else.
It's very much a win-win for me. If Arnold returns, then great. If not, I'll be equally excited to hear what the next guy comes up with.
They certainly haven't forgotten about him, seeing as they've been attending some of them in support -- which I can verify firsthand.
I don't normally let my hopes get too far up about such things anymore, but I've got a good feeling about this one.
And if it wasn't for Mendes/the Olympics - presumably he would scored the last two.
It was Barry himself I think that recommended Arnold to EON. I don't think Arnold is a genius but I don't hear anyone else doing work as good as what he delivered on those first 2 Craig films.
Agreed. Although Arnold improved with CR and QOS, he certainly sounded like a tribute act not unlike Brosnan and his Bond films prior to the Craig era.
The horse continues to be dead as is the broken record.
Oh.... a hater! Next!
Casino Royale is still my favourite Craig Bond film; I wonder if the new picture will supersede it... It would be great but it’s hard to believe. The fairly faithful Fleming adaptations have always been the best.
:x
Wow its like TB with some DN. Just updated. Looks phenomenal
This looks bloody incredible. This is the best vlog we've ever gotten :D
I'm getting Casino Royale vibes.
It feels very Bondian!
I already want to kiss Fukunaga and I haven't even seen the film :D
This also seems to look and feel like a follow-up to Casino Royale.
Just the tone and respect for the local culture.
