Moonraker, Ronin, Name of the Rose, Munich. And I don't particularly disapprove Bond but am getting a tad fatigued by the franchise. Just like I get tired of the umpteenth superhero movie or TV series they are cranking out these days. Inky, you forgot THE DAY OF THE JACKAL, and THE REMAINS OF THE DAY. To be fair to M. Lonsdale, it's those kind of "world weary" roles, that he seems to excel in. I don't mind it. As for "the umpteenth superhero movie"; I'd better keep my mouth firmly shut about that, otherwise the entire internet would not be able to contain the veritable Niagara of vitriol that word appear on computer screens.

Sir Hilary Bray 235 Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 I suppose Giacchino so he can say he's done the full set. Before, I'd say Newman but as Spectre recycled Skyfall partly, I'll vote for Desplat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex 2,835 Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 Bit of a random choice but how about Edward Shearmur. I've always liked Johnny English. It's a highly accomplished parody effort and it could be argued that it's a lot better than some James Bond scores (Eric Serra, I'm looking at you). He was actually an assistant to Michael Kamen on Licence to Kill as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry O 115 Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 If Arnold's around I don't know why you wouldn't just get Arnold. Giacchino's score for The Incredibles was an amazing John Barry homage, so I'd suggest him if Arnold isn't available. But really, it shouldn't even have to get that far. Just let Arnold do it.

As far as I'm aware, the latest thing Arnold has had to say about the film is this about a month ago on Twitter: Re:Bond 25.,when ever there’s a new Bond in production I get asked a lot if I’m doing it ,which is a lovely thing , but as of right now,there is zero news. Anything outside of an official Eon announcement is speculation .

Disco Stu 15,495 Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 I just don’t see why they would go with anyone else. He did five in a row and the only reason he didn’t do the last two is because Mendes wanted to use his regular collaborators in all the key roles. Fukunaga has no regular composer. And I’m willing to bet he isn’t being given has much leeway as Mendes received anyway. So unless Broccoli or Wilson have a random strong desire to use someone else, Arnold seems like a shoe-in. He’s probably already been approached and is just teasing us ahead of the official announcement. Cheeky bugger! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doubt EON would let him score a Bond film though. As for being given leeway, Fukunaga did drop out of It due to creative differences so he isn’t above asking for what he wants.

TheUlyssesian 2,478 Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 Daniel Pemberton might be good. His Solo theme for Uncle, heard at 1:04 has the effortless cool and swagger that Arnold's Casino Royale theme had or some of the Barry Connery themes had in the 60s.
