Bryant Burnette 658 Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 Somebody's gonna sell me one of those.I do hope, however, that iTunes will have an expanded version, like they did with Casino Royale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Penna 3,789 Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 Just about the most boring album cover I've seen in a while actually...I'm not a fan of CR, but then I'm not a David Arnold fan at all. He's too brassy and brash for me. I'll give this one a chance, but my hopes aren't that high.I saw the trailer last week, and while overall it was fairly impressive, it had one of those 100% CG shots with 2 guys fighting each other that just looks lame and takes me out of the film. Why can't they do these things for real. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Penna 3,789 Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 Trailer on the official site, just after the bad guy says 'what's the expression... damaged goods?'. Bond's fighting another guy, they fall out of the window, and it all turns CG, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Breathmask 555 Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 Hm, I wasn't aware there was a second trailer out yet. I'll have a look.EDIT: Yes, I see what you mean. Still, judging by the teaser, the high-wire acrobatics that follow were mostly performed practically. Those guys spinning on the ropes sure looks damn real.

Richard Penna 3,789 Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 I hadn't seen the teaser and yeah, it all looks pretty damn cool from that. The rope spinning is definitely stunt guys I'm sure... just that one shot in the trailer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Penna 3,789 Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 Yeah, it was supposed to be about the score. I kinda steered it off course with the CG criticism, my fault.Scores like this generally invoke a love-hate feeling for me. Either I'll give it a listen and it'll just be generic Arnold, or I'll find some true magic somewhere inside it and it will click. That's what unexpectedly happened with Hancock.

Kendal_Ozzel 36 Posted September 21, 2008 Author Share Posted September 21, 2008 I guess now that we've heard the song, the question of "Will he incorporate the song into the score?" is answered, since it doesn't really have a strong melody to work with.

Koray Savas 2,251 Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 Will the song be on the CD? It was strange that You Know My Name wasn't on Casino Royale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Penna 3,789 Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 Just listened to most of the song. That was boring, and no, there's barely any melody Arnold could include in a score.Pity, because Cornell's song was among the best Bond songs IMO.

Morlock 11 Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 It worked as Barry-esque. But it worked almost as a parody. It was so over the top in it's romanticism, that it tipped me off by it's obviousness about the third act twist. It was too romantic to be believed.

Some unmotivated piano tingling?Eh, you could already tell from the structure of the film that a twist was coming.You could tell also if you've read the book 60 years ago ...The Vesper- twist was just too blown up and action- ated to be more effective.Imagine the scene at the beach, Bond telling Vesper he loved her, Bond returns to the house in the evening, finding her dead in her room with a farewell letter, then the scene with White.That would be true to the novel and James Bond, just like the rest of the film.
