Bond titles are sometimes nonsensical. Moonraker was the name of a space-station-thingy, but utterly meaningless in and of itself - nothing to do with the moon and there was absolutely no raking. Same thing with Skyfall - meaningless name of the family country estate, devoid of falling and nothing special about the sky.
The real question is how well they can work it into a song.

He took the lead, I clenched a fist.
For queen and country, I took the risk.
I shook his hand, I chose to live.
And all he planned, he couldn't forgive.
He threated everything, everything that mattered.
I shook his hand... it shattered.
Shatterhand.
Oh, shatterhand.
Oh, the spider's touch of... Shatterhand.

On a different but somewhat related note, I am honestly surprised to hear that there is even going to be another DC Bond. I thought he was done, because the only thing I have been hearing about Bond movies for at least 2 years is which intersectionality boxes we are going to check with the next Bond - black, woman, trans, etc. The usual schtick. I thought that meant the role was already opened. Never heard of thinking so many moves ahead on the SJ chessboard for casting decisions.

In the book Moonraker was purportedly a rocket to reach the moon (hence the name), actually a rocket with a nuclear warhead aimed at London.

Same thing with Skyfall - meaningless name of the family country estate, devoid of falling and nothing special about the sky. I thought the raking was to do with it scooping up, or raking in, space shuttles, which would eventually lead to it scooping up (i.e. taking over) the moon. At least, that is what my child-like brain thought when I first saw it. Is Skyfall to do with endless Scottish rain? I've spent a lot of time in those northern Scottish glens - wonderful places - but boy, the sky is falling about 50% of the time. At least, that is what my child-like brain thought when I first saw it. |
