> Balfe shouldn't get shit for the situation, as he (almost certainly) had no hand in Kraemer's ejection.

If Fallout had come right after, say, Ghost Protocol, we as a community like would have looked more fondly on its music.

McQuarrie later admitted that he somewhat knew Rogue Nation was coasting off the goodwill of Ghost Protocol and that the next film couldn't do the same thing.

Also forgotten is that a decent portion of Kraemer's Rogue Nation score went unused in the final film.

> This is the truth. Balfe has it within his wheelhouse to do something akin to what Kraemer did, that he did not indicates that it was the higher-ups' decision.

True, if for no other reason than Penguins of Madagascar.

Thanks!
