All is Lost 4/5 Redford is utterly superb and it's a testament to his talent that he hold our attention for so long. Very much recommended. Dog Day Afternoon 5/5 Lumet and Pacino's masterpiece. mesmeric performance from Al and the suppor…

Surrender being a full collaboration with the composer like YNMN is probably the best of that era but like you say not much competition when you got the likes of "I'm in a puddle on the floor" to top.

1. TLD 2. LTK 3. FOR YOUR EYES ONLY 4. OP 5. VTAK Although his 2nd unit work on OHMSS is his crowning glory.

U2 would knock it out the park, Bono and The Edge wrote GE which is easily the best of the Brosnan themes and Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me was definitely a Bond theme in spirit, pity the film it accompanied was nowhere near the quality. …

I'm 42 and alongside film music is my main interest and I considerably invest in it, not free downloads I actually spend serious money on music still so I'd very much like this to be a great artist and not just a hugely popular flavour of the moment…

I know it's all about using the right artist to give the film maximum exposure so Smith is a likely bet and I know the rumour has been around for ages. Maybe he might do something OK, Adele was more than adequate on the titles but the song doesn…

Just found this, I'm not sure how they can know this and I knew it would only be a matter of time before I wasn't going to like the Artist chosen in the Craig era but Sam Smith really? What's this bollocks about Aidan Turner being the next Bond? …
-
I would have been more than enough footage for a trailer, granted it's early but big films have much more trailers these days, we might even get another 2 after this. Possibly another IMAX trailer?

TWINE is an uneven mess of a film, better action? I must have been watching a different film, as for better Bond, what PB's attempt's at depth and that pain face, you surely must be joking? I think Craig is terrific in CR and the performance ha…

Moore is undoubtedly suave and a natural comic talent but bad ass? Not one of his films give off that vibe, Connery, Lazenby & Dalton but Rog? not a chance. Seriously this is Craig's department he oozes danger more than anyone since Connery …
-
In all fairness Craig's era has not resulted to lines like "That will keep you in curry" Some might think casual racism is funny but then again some of you are wearing rose tinted specs when you watch these films you happily excuse the corny chee…

Ideally I'd just rather like you see a new voice, maybe the director that follows Mendes will bring his own choice aboard. Andre Desplat is a composer I'd give a shot although he seems to be filling in for John Williams on our first Star Wars spi…

The Home Alone reference has been around since the film was released. I personally liked it as it was turning the traditional climax of an old school entry on it's head. Rather than Bond confront the villain in his lair and destroy it, Silva tra…

Newman can't deliver a score like SF this time round, lots of atmospheric noodlings are not going to cut it. If Newman could reinvent the sound like we've been waiting for instead of just delivering something that sounds like umpteen other films …
-
I seriously looking forward to Craig getting his first Bond triumphant PTS. This definitely seems like something Connery, Moore, Dalton & Brosnan have had in the past and an example which we have been waiting for the Craig era to deliver. I i…

The Catherine Tate sketch was much better and probably a nowhere near the budget of behind the Bond. Daniel making the sandwich was very funny and eating it as she comes out the bathroom. Yes it was for charity but Walliams is well past his sell…
-
It was for charity and it shows Daniel Craig and the rest definitely have a sense of humour but it wasn't that funny really, makes you think what it might have been with some better comic talent behind the writing. I'm sorry I hate smileys!
-
What's The Story has nothing on Revolver, if you are debating that one then maybe Arnold is more than sufficient. I don't deny that Arnold track is good but up with Barry's best romantic Bond themes not a chance.
-
It might be opinion but to suggest that Arnold got close to the best of Barry with either CR or QOS is just ludicrous and yes Back Street Driver has no relation to Barry whatsoever, at least not the Barry I've listened to for the last 37 years of my…
-
Each to their own I think TND is alongside TWINE probably the dreariest title tunes of the series and agree Surrender would have been much better. Glad to see Arnold hit it out the park when he collaborated with an artist again (YNMN) Cornell's …
-
I personally think Alexandre Desplat should be given a shot. His Oscar winning score to The Grand Budapest Hotel is simply exquisite. I've been quite impressed by his scores, both his Kings Speech and both Deathly Hallows films was good as well …

I remember reading the comments that were made by someone on the inside during the scoring of SF, saying they were getting goose bumps from the sound they were hearing. To be honest there are moments in the SF score but nothing that put my hairs …
