I knew Arnold should have done it. Dear God, sounds like we are back in Brozza territory again. :evil:
You're talking about the alternate universe where Brosnan is still Bond and 50 Cent is performing the Bond song. :P :wink:

Could it be?

With Katied and Sweeney agreeing on something, this world is headed for a disaster of biblical proportions. Old Testament! Real wrath of God type stuff. Fire and brimstone coming down from the skies! Rivers and seas boiling! Forty years of darkness! Earthquakes, volcanoes... The dead rising from the grave! Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together... mass hysteria!

:P

LOL the apocalypse is upon us!!

Seriously though:That was the best that they could come up with? And listening to some of the Bond themes that didn't make the cut on another thread is interesting.A lot of those were as good,if not better,than the actual themes.

Listening to the new effort we have, it wouldn't be too hard to do.

Why didn't Arnold do the song? He did a superb effort with YKNM. The opening of this garbage sounds like the opening to TND. I just hope that it may grow on me eventually, but I seriously doubt it.

I don't know why. EON seems to do this to Arnold on every other film. TND, DAD and now QOS, the films in between were the only songs composed by Arnold. Sure, he worked on Surrender but that ended up being thrown at the ending credits. It's stupid, if Arnold is truly their main guy after six films in a row, they should give him the same privileges as they gave to John Barry. I'd prefer a better composer, but at least Arnold is competent as shown with Chris Cornell's YKMN.

I told you months ago you would not be as pleased with The Bourne Mimicry as you were with a proven script like CR. Now, wait until you see Craig doing non-stop stunts the entire film emulating Matt Damon! Will Craig even be asked to do The Bond Ultimatum or will he become the second coming of Dalton?

We all here could have held her up long enough so she could record the title song before she fell on her face passed out. That would have been a better choice. :D

It's no suprise to anyone here that I loved CR, and that included the song too.

With this, no matter how brilliant the film may be, I will not be in love with the song like I was with CR. I just hope the film is a d**n sight better than this crappy, pathetic, abysmal attempt at a Bond song. Jesus, it's almost on par with Madonna's DAD (almost).

Hi

I can't find a link to the new Bond song on the web...............as it seems to of been removed,
yet some of you have heard the song...........though i'am dissapointed to find out that you think its
not very good. :cry: :cry: :cry:

Can someone give me a link to the new song if its still available.

I remember TND cracking soundtrack from Arnold with a good song from the Pretenders, but for some reason that out of place song from S.Crowe was used as the main theme. :cry: :cry: :cry:

I thought "You Know My Name" was a shocker. I remember it receiving a lukewarm reaction when it was first released. I thought Die Another Day was ok.

Umm, you might want to rethink that, considering the way they treated John Barry.

The new theme song is an insult. This current Bond era is completely charmless.

Just heard the full track. Man, what a godawful mess. It looks like we have another DAD on our hands, battling it out as the worst song ever made.

So, already QOS has it's faults. Bj must be rubbing his hands in glee right now.... :lol:
