    Cheers, @Murdock! As you can probably tell, I had to make a few cuts to fit the music. Hopefully it wasn't too noticeable. I tried rescoring the plane chase with the same tune, and it really didn't work. There's something about the techno bits that make the track much more suitable for an on-ground action sequence as opposed to an aerial sequence.

    I didn't notice any cuts in the music but I did notice you cut out the comedy scene. ;) I did do a rescore of the plane chase using the song. I need to upload it. I used a mix between that and the end credits music with a bit of the Caviar factory music. I think it worked for the most part. I'll upload it now.

    Cool! Looking forward to it.

    Regarding my cutting the comedic bit of the chase, that was simply due to time constraint, and I wanted the last note to coincide with the car tumbling into the Tiber.

    It worked pretty well and was very seamless, everything synced perfectly. :)

    While I am sure I am the only one who does this I recently rewatched the main trailers for Casino Royale - Spectre and then watched your trailers for Risico and Tom Hardy as 007 and it weirdly fits as the trailers for Bond 25 and 26.

    Bond 25 ends with bond getting amnesia and in Bond 26 (staring Hardy) he has vaguely remembers his former life. Hence the shots from Casino Royale. (Which would also tie Hardy's bond with Craig's) even title wise though you don't have a title technically in your Hardy trailer I assume it's the groan enducing James Bond (which would be a shit title but I would put it pass them.. I suppose if you were on what culture . Com you could call it a shit title for wankers #shittitleforwankers)

    But yeah

    Casino Royale
    Quantum of Solace
    Skyfall
    Spectre
    Risico (2018)
    James Bond (2020 staring Hardy and directed by Nolan)

    It really works well in my opinion

    I'm in the process of compiling yet another trailer for "Bond 25". I should have it up in a few days.

    This will be my last B25 edit until the principle cast is announced, so I'd love to hear your thoughts on this one. Here it is:

    Wow.
    What an absolutely incredible fan trailer @jake24. I'm normally not a fan of fan-edits which are admittedly usually quite haphazard, but you have a true gift for this. It really gets me fired up for another showdown between Craig and Waltz.

    Here's a brief teaser. Hopefully this works out:

    I got this idea from a YouTube comment, funny enough. Another rescore, this time using the QoS track "Forgive Yourself" for Tracy's death scene in OHMSS. I thought this was a pretty good fit:

    @jake24, that was a beautiful re-score. It's clear you really paid attention to the score and how you could use it to trick, then pump sympathy out of the viewer. I really like that you used the high action music to play over the shooting Bunt does, making you think a big action set piece/chase is about to unfold, only to cut the bombastic stuff immediately the moment Bond sees Tracy dead and his will to give chase erodes. I love it when films lie to you with their music and make you think you're going to see a spectacle, only to get a shocking moment of tragedy the next second that just hits you out of nowhere.

    The soft, heart-breaking notes mixed with the Vesper theme that play after Bond says, "We'll be going on soon," really got me, and I though it was a perfect way to play it as Bond is quietly taking in the shock of what has just happened in a way that glues you all the more to Lazenby. My favorite thing is that you let the music continue very sorrowfully to the end credits. I love OHMSS dearly, but I cannot believe the film was finalized with the Bond theme playing after such a tragic scene once credits rolled. I find it very rude and disrespectful to Tracy's memory and the big moment in Bond's life we just watched unfold, and how it cracks it in two. You kept the quiet mourning going through the re-score in a way that improved on the final cut itself. I also like the short two-three second action cue that you again had play as the "James Bond Will Return" text came up, letting us know Bond would be back with a vengeance. It screams, "Blofeld will pay."

    Very well done, and a powerful re-imagining of the most unforgettable Bond moment ever.

    That was beautiful. Tragic. A lot more coherent with the scene than the actual one we've got in the film. Once again, Jakester, well done!
