publicist 4635 Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 At best you can hope for some overproduced Barry-isms, though Zimmer is really the wrong guy for Barry's stylish and ironic Bond idiom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, "what's the difference," you could say. But given how much Fallout still leaves a bit of a pit in my stomach, I'm sure NTTD will at least be something noteworthy within the presumed studio demands to make RCP Bond. Fallout has some good bits, and I've grown to like a chunk of it, helped by the film being really good. NTTD could have some good bits - it's just that generic RCP drone that does that clip no favours. How can Zimmer pretend to be innovating when he uses devices like that?

HunterTech 693 Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 Fallout I think is just affected by the virtue of what it represents than what the actual music has. It's not bad on its own, but given how much I really like most of the previous ones, I just can't help but feel disappointed. Someone did bring up the possibility of the NTTD clip maybe using temp, but given the film is pretty much done at this point, why would they have an earlier version of the scene lying around to just post like that? Either way: 45 seconds is still nothing, you scoundrels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arpy 4072 Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 To be honest, I'm coming around to the philosophy that not every scene needs to be scored. Even though Arnold's music accentuates some of the moments well, it just feels OTT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The promo of WONDER WOMAN 1984, for example, was sent out more or less at the same time as the commercial release. Seems to be a recurring strategy for tentpole pictures like this.

It's an absolute travesty that Arnold wasn't brought back after Mendes/Newman departed. He captured the essence of Barry and Bond better than anyone. I'll give Zimmer (or whoever actually composed the score, I doubt he did more than a handful of cues) the benefit of the doubt but I'm resigned to the fact it'll probably be hot garbage, indistinguishable from the generic crap which passes for 'film music' nowadays.

Edmilson 4504 Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 WW84 gave me a little hope that the next Zimmer scores will be at least okay.

Richard Penna 2506 Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 I dunno... Bond has a cache that I reckon Zimmer would want to put more effort towards. I personally think it's more likely that he wanted to score it, but knew he'd need a bit of help due to time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
