Yeah, all true....we can only hope Moore gets though, since he was the third face of the franchise.
Yeah I think there have to be just a few exceptions as you mention. Otherwise the films become a sort of graveyard rather than pieces of entertainment!
Yeah, true....so the End credits song doesn't turn to a Dirge...maybe. Although, I felt with the Bond theme playing at the end of SF, it was an opportunity to launch Barry's Name boldly on the screen, immediately after the Gunbarrel....since the Bond theme like 'Surrender' is an upbeat tune....but true, it does have it's disadvantages as well.
Good points, especially about Arnold.
In that case, no song and no big tribute, but one for Roger the same style as what Cubby got.
I hate to be morbid, but I feel as though they're going to want to pay tribute to other actors in the future, so they can't leave Roger out.
EDIT: Also this is way off topic, haha, I thought this was the production thread! #TooManyNTTDThreads
Sir Rog might get a mention, but probably only after the end credits. As MakeshiftPython correctly pointed out, that Meddings and Cubby got an in memorandum mention. Saltzman did not get one. None of the passed away directors were mentioned, not Terence Young, neither Guy Hamilton, Lewis Gilbert, or Peter Hunt. Richard Maibaum did not get one, as well, and he wrote 13 Bond movies. And if you actually start the whole thing once, you have to keep it going. Not only EON does it, other companies don't do it, and if so, like in TDK, Heath Ledger got a tribute, but he was the protagonist, TBH. Plus thy mentioned a stuntman who died during production.
Agree with the bold, as per my previous post. Yes, it's true many people who had a huge impact on the franchise did not receive tributes. Roger Moore was the protagonist of seven films in the franchise and was a huge, visible part of the franchise. Other films don't do it, but not all films are part of a twenty five film legacy, and those that are, do (Stan Lee). Heath Ledger was not the protagonist of TDK.
Anyways as I mentioned this is off topic, so maybe we can take this discussion to the production thread?
Claudine Auger is the one we should expect for a tribute but i am not holding my breath.
I would be very surprised if NTTD did not commemorate Sir Rog in some way.
Slightly different but it's great that Barry got his cameo in TLD. What a fitting way to sign off.
This is a spoiler free thread, some of us don't want to have the movie ruined.
It debuted (!) at 16 on the BIllboard Hot 100, where it currently sits. No small feat.

Making a joke about a well publicized rumour (something that there is even a thread title about) is spoiling the movie?
Justin Bieber is the only one I've ever heard of and I hate his music
It's seriously worn off for me too. I haven't listened to it in weeks.
Pretty forgettable if I'm perfectly honest. Bit like TWOTW.
Sam Smith's song is so bland to me that I sometimes struggles to remember what 'TWOTW' means when reading those letters. Here it takes me 10sec :D
Is it good ?
(I still haven't listened to NTTD)
Interesting: are you saving it for watching the film?
No, that was pretty boring. The original is much better.
I'd like to get the same feeling when discovering old Bond movies and the songs together (for the lesser know ones of course)
I've tried to do that with Skyfall, a big failure :D (and don't even care to try with Sam Smith...)
Here it's different : I like Billie Eilish's work, could be a memorable moment
(..if the theaters aren't closed in april... situtation in France is worse and worse : Le Louvre closed since 3 days, concerts cancelled etc)
