I remember buying & listening to David Arnold's 1st Bond score, Tomorrow Never Dies, on cassette and being completely blown away. When I learned that John Barry had reccommended him to Barbara Broccoli, it was obvious Arnold was the true successor to Barry. Too Bad that Broccoli & Wilson didn't always trust him with the main title theme songs, as you pointed out Mind. Thankfully Arnold would weave his rejected themes into the body of his scores. No offense to Hans Zimmer or Billie Eilish, I wish Arnold had been invited back to finish the Daniel Craig era. Thanks Mind!

Thank you for the background info. I did not know that Barry himself had recommended him. What I love about Arnold and Bond movies is that he continued there where Barry had lost his inspiration for Bond (regardless of all other inspired masterpieces he composed after). Sometimes you think Barry himself would have composed some of Arnold's tracks.

Thank you for the suit. Definitely the highlight of the film which was really ... well hm. "Night at the opera" is of one those magical tracks that I can listen to in a loop all day long, like Barry's "Bond lured to the pyramids".

Thanks Mind❤👍🏻 Great David Arnold. I hope you come back to compose for future 007 chapters! Quantum is the name of the criminal organization in the film, but the concept of Quantum has another meaning: That a relationship cannot be saved if there is not some comfort between the two parties. Research: Daniel Craig's Bond is always in the process of losing all the signs that certify his identity in the eyes of the public (at a certain point he is sacked by his superiors and doesn't even know the name of the drink he brings to his lips) and he is always one step away from winning them back. In this slippery space of recurrences and misunderstandings the charm of a myth is reaffirmed. Craig plays the game with cunning: Ruder and more popular than his predecessors, but impeccably elegant and a lover of luxury, he digs a romantic vein into the adventure, the memory of a pain. But the opening sequence should clear up any doubts: Action is everything. The one between Jack White and Alicia Keys was the first musical duet in the James Bond films. In February 2008, Amy Winehouse was hired for the film's traditional opening song. Since the singer had a history of alcoholism and drug addiction, she was required to abstain from using these substances, under penalty of cancellation of the contract. In March 2008, Mark Ronson officially declared the breach of contract due to the impossibility of working with the star, who had repeatedly continued to use drugs. The scene in which Bond finds Agent Fields dead on the bed of her hotel room, covered in oil, is an explicit callback to the famous death scene of Jill Masterson, covered in gold, in “Goldfinger”. The idea was the director's, who wanted to exemplify how oil had replaced gold as the most precious commodity. In the scene of 007 and Camille's return from the desert after finding the underground river, similarities can be found with the sequence of "The Spy Who Loved Me" in which Bond and Anya Amasova return on foot from Luxor after fighting with Jaws. "Quantum Of Solace" is the first film in the series in which the famous Gunbarrel sequence is placed, instead of at the beginning, before the end credits; it is also the first in which Bond, after shooting, continues walking. Olga Kurylenko and I know each other quite a bit through correspondence. According to her statements, she was inspired by Michelle Yeoh in “Tomorrow Never Dies” who shot all the scenes without a stunt double.
