Restoring GoldenEye's Original Opening

This brief scene from GoldenEye's pretitles sequence was apparently cut quite late, presumably to help with pacing. This edit restores the scene to where I believe it was in the original cut. I've added some of Eric Serra's score and reworked the score accompanying the released scenes. I've also changed some of the foley sound (both released and unreleased) to work a little better with this edit. Finally, I fixed the aspect ratio to match GoldenEye's, as the deleted scenes are presented in a weirdly squashed ratio for no apparent reason...!
Overall, I really like this version and wish it was how it was in the final cut. It's a little slower, but has a disturbing, almost slasher-esque feel which establishes this film up as tonally quite different from its predecessors from the beginning.
The footage sadly suffers from the same quality issues as the Tomorrow Never Dies deletes scenes which I've been restoring, though for different reasons. While the TND scenes are low quality digital versions (presumably for editing, as TND was edited on AVID), the GoldenEye scenes are film scans from stock which, while noticeably more HD than the TND scenes, has presumably degraded over time - hence the dust, scratches etc. I've done some basic cleanup to try and make things look a little better, but haven't even attempted to try repairing the footage properly. Unfortunately, this is way out of my expertise area!

Always felt this scene should have been left in - it goes well with the later scene in St Petersburg when Defense Minister Mishkin is ruefully looking out the window at the military band playing the same music ... just before Ourumov arrives. Symbolic in some way!

Fantastic! Always wondered how Bond made it through, dashing in daylight on a guarded dam.

Always felt like something was missing before the gate opens and he runs onto the dam.

I am glad this bit was left out of the final film but I would also like to see the entire pre title sequence with this bit in it. Maybe even with music in it. The music may have been part of the problem in this instance. That march music is REALLY a flowbreaker coming from that amazing establishing shot.

The building outside the gate reminds me of the level of the N64 game, I know that the developers actually went to the set to get all the reference material, or is it just coincidental

yes, Rare made that building in the Dam level based on this deleted scene.

Rare was given a tour of the set which is why some of the levels are very detailed compared to the movie.

While you got most of it right, keep in mind that the entire film runs at 24fps while the deleted bits run at 25 hence making the audio sound kinda high pitched which could also use some adjusting.

Wouldn't consider Brosnan my favorite bond, but his gun barrel has to be #1.

For me it goes Pierce Brosnan in No.1, Sean Connery in No.2, Daniel Craig in No.3, George Lazenby in No.4, Timothy Dalton in No.5 and Roger Moore in No.6

In the N64 game, you do some of this stuff on the harder difficulty settings.

Are we forgetting the obvious reason why this wouldn't work? During the deleted scene it's dark and when bond runs across the dam it's daytime.

I think that may be due to the degradation of the film. The guardhouse light is on which, when combined with the muddy quality of the film print, suggests to the eye that it is a night scene. Perhaps the guardhouse is also sitting in the shadow of the surrounding mountains, adding to the impression. But the shot of Bond glancing and the plane flying back over are clearly day. These scenes are all set during day as per the shooting script, so it is unlikely that the filmmakers shot anything to look like a night scene.

Pierce Brosnan was highly overated as James Bond! He lacked the danger and depth of Timothy Dalton.
