Brief Synopsis:
A light edit aimed at making the score more "Bondian". Eric Serra's score was a departure from the traditional Bond scores and is quite divisive among Bond fans.
Intention:
This edit attempts to replace 4 pieces of music which not only felt un-Bondian but also just weak and unsuitable music for the story being told.
Other Sources:
Soundtracks:
From Russia With Love
Moonraker
The Man With The Golden Gun

Shaken and Stirred the David Arnold Project
Release Information:
Digital
Cuts and Additions:
Music Changes:
1. Aston Martin Vs Ferrari car chase. Replaced "ladies first" with "007" from "From Russia With Love".
2. The scene of Bond in the hotel swimming pool has been re-scored with "Scaramanga's Fun House" from The Man With The Golden Gun.
3. Bond's meeting with Trevelyan in the statue park was replaced with "Bond Smells A Rat" from Moonraker.
4. Added a short burst of the Bond theme during the final fight between Bond and Trevelyan.
5. Replaced the closing song "The Experience of Love" with "From Russia With Love" performed by Natacha Atlas from the album "Shaken and Stirred the David Arnold Project"

Removed a shot of Bond coming out of the air vent in the toilet cubicle as it looks as if he is levitating to me.

Rearranged some shots after the tank shoots the train to make it look as if Bond is closer to the tunnel as he watches the train pass him.

Micro trimmed some shots of the final fight on the radar dish and color corrected them to make it look less obviously blue screened.

GoldenEye is easily Brosnan's best outing as 007, but it has always been hampered by a few terribly dated musical choices that were subsequently corrected in later films. PoorAndin's edit of GoldenEye is pretty much exactly was I was looking for. My only quibble is that the volume is a bit low for my tastes. I had to really turn up my volume to properly hear everything. Other than that, this is a perfect edit of a fun 007 flick. Well done!
