I found a realy cool thing watching License To Kill today.
When James is hanging under the trailer and being shot on.
The bouncing sound of the bullet is the 007-theme. (Edit: James Bond Theme)
Have any one else found some other cool musical hide place?

The main musical line behind both Goldfinger and Thunderball is the "dah-dah-dah, dah-dah" portion of the James Bond theme. :(

It's the James Bond Theme, not to be confused with the 007 Theme, although this particular instance was prepared by the sound effects team with no direct involvement from the composer himself. And yes, there are dozens of hidden musical messages in Bond films, but I believe it's more fun if you find them yourself.

Here is one

LTK

Beethoven's Für Elise is incorporated into the score when Pam is alone in that pink/red room with that prist - where he wants sex and she pulls a gun from her leg

MOONRAKER: the electronic keypad to enter Drax's laboratory in Venice uses the five note theme from CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE THIRD KIND.

FOR YOUR EYES ONLY: before entering the identigraph room, Q types in the access code, and Bond finishes it, to play the tune of 'Nobody Does It Better'.

Finally, depending on who you talk to, in QUANTUM OF SOLACE, when Bond knocks on Mathis' door, he is either playing the 'Bond Theme', 'Nobody Does It Better', or (my preferred option) he's just knocking!

This is not exactly a musical joke as the music is not incorporated into the score - it's just a source piece used as relaxation music.

Don't forget, LTK's title song melody rips off Goldfinger's. John Barry mentioned that also...

So does Aerosmith's Sunshine, which for some reason makes me like LTK's theme even less, but not Goldfinger's. Go figure.
