  • QOS is a great Bond-Film. I saw it with a friend of mine and we both really liked it. Quantum meeting in Bregenz reminded me on annual World Economic Forum meeting in Davos (the place in CH where Marc Forster went to school) where the world's riches…
  • It's available online in a DivX format, not HD but still good, sound is good, a great concert, very groovy :-) ! If you google, you may find it!
  • Dear UK fans; could anybody with time and skill make a torrent of this great concert in a highest possible quality for all fans around the world? The concert was obviously really great and the arrangements of 2 songs found on youtube are very very …
  • Thank you for a very interesting read about John Cork whose "Inside of..." JB DVD/BR documentaries and dvd/br commentaries are greatest things ever published about JB films.
  • Goldfinger is a Guy Hamilton's first Bond movie, therefore a certain lightness and humour which general public adored much more then original Fleming's cynical killer Bond. Bigger then life both Villain and Henchman. Incredible Richard Maibaum scree…
  • Zekidk wrote: DRESSED_TO_KILL wrote: Nothing about the ending finale felt original For me - Bond backstabbing Silva was very anticlimatic. Usually we see Bond confronting the villans and henchmen head on. They could have come up with some…
  • @craigrules You didn't watch the Film carefully. After a bloodbath in PM's hearings, train diversion and Silva's escape M is bothered of too many people dying because of her and agrees Bond that he can use her as a bait to get Silva (hijacked car c…
  • I allways liked Moonraker. It's beautiful in all it's nonsense. It's easy to watch it all over again like all happy light bonds. Who doesn't like laughing and smiling? The Wilson/Gilbert/Wood commentary track is so funny! Well it's far far far awa…
  • Seen it normal (Basel) and yesterday IMAX(Lucerne). No price difference (19CHF = approx 16 EUR). It doesn't fill the full IMAX screen but it's slightly bigger, say like 2,10:1 so it looks like a 4:3 TV letterboxed widescreen movie blown very big. It…
  • This is absolutely incredible! Thank you for the effort and sharing it all with us.
  • @Sandy I'm not a theacher here. I don't do it for free and this is a discussion forum here, not a school.
  • I'm sure there is a Star Trek forum somewhere where people discuss physics of warp using technical terms, not the grandmothers, and nobody gets attacked being snobbisch for it because society in general accepts physics as a science and music only be…
  • @Sandy I can't explain it simplier. That's why all those terms exist, for centuries. Ask mathematics professor to explain it without numbers and symbols. You seem to not understand my joke about "compose like DA and have fun with it" - kit. You t…
  • I see some people attacking me. I'll try to answer as good as I can. @Sandy : it was not pointed at you. Thank you for being nice. My posts were not pointed at you or you alone, why are you taking them personally? Why do you feel so offended? Al…
  • This sounds like a dismissal. I was rather looking forward to breakfast. :-) Thank you Anon for calling me snobbish; I feel honored because both Ian Fleming and his James Bond are snobs, so I can't imagine better company ;-); I didn't know, th…
  • Are new Blu ray menus different then ones of a 1st edition?
  • Yes, one more thing, no overused third relations (chromatic mediants) as a cheap dramatising asset, composing ground or time - fill, finally, after 15 years , thank you Thomas Newman! No more this, if, it should be used like garlic, not like wate…
  • New digs is a smooth spying piece, happens in Turkey. The piece is partly actually a western version of a Turkish traditional tune, it even has that guitar-like instrument playing out of tune for purpose (there is a lots of out-of-tune elements in T…
  • "This will do.... this will do me nicely." GL, OHMSS
  • CV post deleted by me due wrong topic.
  • @Artemis81 : Thank you for capturing and torrenting! It is a real happiness being able to finally see it. It seems like a kind of condensed version of all Cork/Scivally docs, done with touche and wit, with a lots of new very important details about…
  • [/quote] "Anyone who can use an instrument, a sequencer or whatever can compose. Some people might not rate that composition, but that's a different matter. There's nothing wrong about being a self-taught composer. By your logic, Heston Blumen…
  • I ment composing for an international 150 mil. James Bond - blockbuster, sorry for not being precise enough. And yes, of course, everybody can do everything anyway :-)
  • Yes, Sandy, I'm generalising because I have an education to do that without being immodest, I am taking my full responsibility for that and sorry for caps. I wanted to write this for approx 10 years so it came out big :-) I'm not arrogant; I'm writi…
  • I think it's great that Newman got this chance, he is very skilled and his sensitivity for a certain moment is hard to achieve by any film composer today.
  • Reposted and expanded from another topic: I don't know if this is the right forum to discuss such things from a professional point of view (classical musician) but here is my few cents: The usage of minor key in a James Bond Films functions at…
