I would like to see the return of the 007 Theme.
Source:
I wish MI6-HQ stopped writing at the end of every Bond 23 article like it was a fact that "Five-time 007 composer David Arnold will score James Bond's 23rd official on-screen adventure."...
It's interesting to note that it was exactly 4 years ago, when David Arnold confirmed that he'll score QOS: http://www.mi6-hq.com/news/index.php?itemid=5450&catid=106&t=mi6&s=news
I think the rest of Arnold's conversation with that fan is also interesting: I guess that if he gets to do BOND 23, he'll use the Bond theme more. Which was more or less expected, but it's always nice to hear it from an official source.
I guess at the moment EON are seeing if Arnold will be able to fit it in and just in case finding a 'back-up' that may well do the score.
1 - he's going to have a lot on his plate, considering the scoring the Olympics.. so right now, he is playing it by ear... at the same time, EON knows this, and they are sitting back waiting for what his decision will be..
2 - or, in like how Marc Forster used MK12 for the opening titles, maybe Mendes wants to use someone else - someone he is more familiar with.. that is not uncommon for directors to do..
but we are still a year away from release (that sounds so nice to hear :-) ).. in a couple months we'll probably know where we'll stand with who is scoring the film.
I love David Arnolds work and would welcome his return, but if he didnt it would be cool to hear a new composer for a film.
Now, wait a second---voting has started already . . ?
;-)
EDIT: I love this picture Arnold has recently tweeted:
:-))
bottom line, we were spoiled with Barry - it's not often that an Academy Award winning composer scores multiple films in your franchise.... Arnold is a fine composer - and I don't wish him to leave the franchise unless it's on his terms... but should he go - then I'd be lying if I said I wouldn't be excited to see who would be next in line.
