When word first came around that Stallone was making a new RAMBO movie, we received lots of mail (and Talkbacks) about whether or not Jerry Goldsmith's "Rambo Theme" would be used in the film. Shortly thereafter...in an interview I can't track down at the moment...composer Brian Tyler indicated his intent to springboard off of Goldsmith's classic themes. Still, we received e-mails and Talkbacks from fans wondering if Tyler would use Goldsmith's themes - all saying (in effect) "RAMBO won't be Rambo without that music." Check out Brian Tyler's MySpace page...

Look to the right & click on "Rambo Suite"...such questions will be answered definitively, I think. Pretty nice. This news came to us yesterday via the inimitable AB king. It was delayed 'cause my e-mail folder jammed up on me. Thanks to AB king...and enjoy!
