    One reason why I buy the 2 part rumor is cause the big film series have had 2 part endings. Harry Potter, Twilight, Hungers Games etc..

    I can totally see Eon jumping on the trend end having a 2 part film end Craigs run as Bond.

    Promising news. Newman dropped the ball on Spectre, but his Skyfall score was truly great, I'm sure he has another GREAT Bond score in him. Btw, I would be happy with any composer as long as it's not David Arnold.

    You have to be real for 1 minute at least once about Newman. No matter how 'great' his SF score was, it cannot be classified as a 'great' Bond score by any means whatsoever because it is missing one fundamental aspect that is required in any Bond soundtrack: instrumental versions of the film's theme song interwoven in the score. I am not discrediting his work on SF, but that missing aspect of his soundtrack eliminates his score from being a top-tier Bond OST on the spot. I'm not saying Newman should have aped Barry or anything, but being able to come up with several instrumental cues of the theme song is a pre-requisite for a Bond score. That's what seperates Bond, music wise, from any other franchise - Bond not only has his own theme song, but each film in the franchise has its own specific theme song on top of it.

    100% agreed with this.

    To be fair with Newman, as far as I understood using Skyfall's tracks in SPECTRE was decided by the production, not by him.

    Still, I hope he won't return.

    Yeah because oscars are the single crowning defining factor for great quality. You should be a comedian with these jokes.
    You need to understand how the Oscars work. The 5 nominees in the Best Original Score category are selected by professional composers. The winner is then chosen by the whole Academy. Clearly, the average make-up artist or an actor won't know much about music (at least not more than you or I do), so the winner doesn't really matter. The 5 nominees on the other hand, as I wrote, are determined by people who know more about music than pretty much anyone in this forum. So yes, the fact that Newman got nominated for Skyfall does prove that it's a great movie score.
    You've been telling us over and over again that EON were going to sell the Bond rights after Bond 25, and now you are saying they bought the Blofeld rights so that no one else ever gets to use them?
    You don't get it. The McClory estate were rivals. Also, that happened 4 years ago. 4 years can be a very long time in the film industry.
    I find it hard to believe that I need to "man up" when you're the one who is spouting nonsense like the above.

    @QuantumOrganization Again, you need to man up and stop being cryptic.
    And you are missing the point that his SF score is not a 'great' Bond score due to one key element missing.
    Ok, I get it, you just want to hear the Bond theme anytime there is an action scene. I don't.

    Serra delivered a far better and much more memorable Bond score than Newman could dream of.

    Are you having hallucinations? Where did I mention the Bond theme? I said the film's theme song. You are aware SF's theme song is the one sung by Adele? Which I believe won an Oscar, so are these awards important for you or not, or just another case of you being inconsistent?

    Although I do side with @DaltonCraig007 on the theme being present, it wouldn't be the first time it went missing. GE didn't call back to the theme at all, and I don't recall hearing any of TWINE or LTK in their soundtracks. QOS is also devoid of AWTD, though it has several hints of Shirley Bassey's No Good About Goodbye (I don't buy Arnold's statement that it was sheer coincidence).

    I hope they go back to Qos one day on an ultimate edition and make a reedit cut that also includes no good about goodbye

    It's definitely there in TWINE. A number of times during the boat chase and it pops up during the transition sequences.

    I actually don't have any beef with Newman, I'd just like a new composer.

    They're hiring Demange!

    And then they're going to hire Newman!

    OH MY GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

    t's not me who doesn't get it, but you who isn't being consistent. Why use that argument now, since obviously for you they are now planning to sell the Bond rights all together. Your post I quoted above is entirely redundant since you have been claiming for the last 2 weeks or so that EON are about to give up on Bond.
    I have never claimed that EON are going to sell Bond. It wasn't me who started that rumour. All I have said is that I'm 100% sure those rumors are not complete nonsense. Anyway, why would it make no sense for EON to not want other companies have the chance to producre rival Bond films in 2013, and then 4 years later for them to want to sell the Bond movie rights?

    This is a completely plausible set of events:
    2012/2013: EON sees it's possible to get back those Blofeld rights back, and since they have always found McClory annoying, that's exactly what they do. Now they can finally know for sure that nobody will ever be able to produce a rival Bond film.
    2016/2017: Michael G. Wilson tells Barbara that he is retiring after Bond 25. Barbara Broccoli decides that he doesn't want to continue producing Bond films either. They decide to sell the franchise.

    Obviously I am speculating, I simply wanted to illustrate that it's entirely plausible that they want to sell the franchise now despite not wanting rival companies producing rival Bond films back in 2013.

    I'd imagine if Newman comes back they'll use David Arnold's Casino Royale Bond theme for the forth time since if Newman does try to write something new it will sound like this.

    LOL. @QuantumOrganization please tell us Zaritsky is not your "source"! Don't get me wrong, I love his videos and he seems like a great guy, but if he is your "source" then this back-to-back rumor is clearly rubbish.

    If we're going to start talking about the reliability of each sources, do you mind telling us the reliability of your source about the Radiohead theme song for SP that you said was 100% bulletproof?
