And get a good composer who can can completely start over--no faux John Barry. Nobody can do John Barry, and I'm tired of people trying to.
Spot on.....
Have to disagree: Since Barry created the essential Bond sound I would terribly miss any attempt at emulating it.

Eric Serra!
Over the years I've come to like his Goldeneye score. Back in 1995 I really didn't like it (at the time I thought it was one of the worst things about the movie, possibly because it's the least Bondian element in the film) but rewatches have softened me on it a little. And it's a better listen on CD, with some terrific moments in there, principally "We Share The Same Passions". It's probably not going to happen, but I'd sooner he had a second crack at 007 than Thomas Newman a third.

Fukunaga started following Dan Romer on Instagram yesterday. They have worked together in the past, not once - surely Romer is his favourite for the gig.

I always quite liked the Serra, and thought it went well with the dark side of the new era. But with Serra you can get some really good stuff, like Goldeneye, or some really awful stuff (to my ears) like Rollerball. I'm happy to have Goldeneye as Serra's sole foray into the world of Bond and would favour Dan Pemberton, based on his music for "The Game", not that it's anything to do with me.

I think JOHN SCOTT would be a really interesting choice!
Are you crazy?  This guy has 90 years old or something like that, and he's on retirement since 10 years.

Theoretically a good idea but the problem is that this almost always leads to a score that does not sound like Bond-music at all (Thomas Newman, Michel Legrand, Michael Kamen)!
Eric Serra´s score was not really good, but - while sounding very modern - at least it had some "Bond-feeling" in it, which was completely absent from Newman´s or Legrand´s music...
Spot on.

I'd love Craig Armstrong or John Powell to score it.
Might give me some interest in Bond that I rarely have, although I have tended to like the Craig ones (well, two of them, with CASINO ROYALE being my fave Bond ever).

So is Ennio Morricone (2 years older) - and he still even gives concerts (and writes scores, of course)!
Also, Scott can compose without having to conduct.
I know it won't happen, but it would be really cool if Conti came out of retirement to score it. Imagine what Conti could do with a modern Bond film. It would be amazing!
I didn't like his score of For Your Eyes Only but I still think he can crank out a good Bond score nevertheless.

I really hope this happens because it would be interesting to see how much time the replacement composer has to completely rescore the movie once Conti gets fired.

Arnold will be high up on the list due to his long involvement with the films.
But EON and Fukunaga might decide to switch gears and give another composer a chance to lend this film a fresh sound. Naturally, it will be someone who is highly sought after right now and will also bring a certain prestige. After Thomas Newman they will hardly go to Joe Kraemer (although I would love to hear him to do it).
So I would expect these:
- Hans Zimmer
- John Powell
- James Newton Howard
But I would prefer these:
- Roque Banos
- Alberto Iglesias
- Ludwig Görannson

Murray Gold- that is all.
