And why shouldn't he? With TND, he brought back the Bond sound. In TWINE, he tweaked it a bit to get us prepared for what would be in store for Die Another Day, which most of us have now heard and have been blown away. With the DAD score, he has reinvented Bond music, and has brought Bond into the new (well, somewhat new) milennium with a bang. Welcome to the 21st century, 007.

I would love to see him do an instrumental theme for Bond 21, possibly with Propellerheads (a la OHMSS). I think that would give the next film a great edge...

Depending the story and ideas they have for 21, music and soundtrack will be a factor to the story, and Arnold might just not be the flavour, sometimes fresh blood is good.
Although in a way I can't let go of John Barry magic, if he's still alive, do one for old time sake.

I mean, he just took Bond music to a new level and I don't know if a new composer would follow this new direction, especially John Williams who is, in my opinion, the exact opposite of Arnold. He's a lot more traditional and that certainly wouldn't help James Bond to become a bit "fresher". Of course it would be interesting to hear a Williams-007 score, but I have a no- good feeling about it.
Same thing with Elfman. The style of the undisputed master of the chorus is suitable for dramatic, mysterious and sad movies like Batman, Edward Scissorhands or Mission Impossible, but I don't think he, as well as Williams, would do well with action tracks.
Also: the last thing I want to hear is the Bond Theme with a Batman- chorus:cool:

So, I would like to see John Barry back for Bond 21, even if it is just for one time. And since Arnold is a huge Barry fan, why can't they join forces and work together? Barry will bring in his classic Bond themes, and Arnold will add the modern twist to it. And indeed, an instrumental theme like OHMSS for Bond 21 would be great! (Propellerheads?)
