THE MUMMY is a fantastic flick. Better, and certainly more fun, than the last two Indiana Jones movies.

Classic!
I don't even love the movie but I bought it nonetheless to support magnificent restorations, like the Arrow is one (unlike the latest Cameron 4Ks which seem to be awful!)

I just discovered this release from Neumation's facebook.
 
I don't know if anyone grew up with this series but this was one of my most wanted TV animation soundtracks.
Alas, the 17 minutes of this release don't include all the music cues that I remembered from the show (I just browsed the first episode to confirm that there was other music indeed too).
Neumation says this must be a teaser. I hope so!

I used to love the score to TITANIC, but in later years I realized that it's not even among the best Horner scores. (in my opinion, that is , of course).

I don’t agree with you there. It’s both an amazing film and score. Agree with everything else. 
 
 

I just finished listening to it!
I agree with your assessment. I'm not familiar at all with Donaggio, but this was impressive indeed.

Facebook, messenger, and Instagram are experiencing outages at the moment.

Are these Dragon scores that good?
I tried to listen to the first one, but I found it too bombastic for my ears, as I find most of Powell's music.
I found it curious that all three of them were also released as sheet music books from Omni Music.

This is a great one. Big, bold and religoso, with choir and operatic solo voices, among other things. True, some of those "contemporary ostinati" here and there aren't that interesting, but for the most part a very impressive work by Mr. Donaggio in the latter part of his career. (Sorry I didn't mention to it to you before, filmmusic, but I only just discovered it myself as I'm trying to build my Donaggio collection a little bit).

We will never publish transcriptions, an original manuscript is a requirement for all of our publications. 
 
The Nic Raine transcription is more of a reimagining of the score than it is an accurate representation of what Barry actually wrote.

Just finished this. I broke my no-recent-films principle (), because it is Gibson!
Well, some pretty impressive realistic battle scenes, but other than that I don't get the high rating at imdb and the Oscar nominations..

Great cast, great score. 

VAT is value added tax. It applies to consumer goods and varies from country to county. Typically, if you import stuff into the EU, you have to pay VAT *and* customs (the VAT threshold used to around €20 in Austria before they changed it a couple of years ago, while the customs threshold was somewhere above €200, so usually we'd only have to pay VAT). If eBay handles the VAT but not any customs fees (if any apply), then you'll still have to pay the customs fees, but not the VAT.
 
By the way, VAT is also the reason why consumer electronics always seem to be so much cheaper in the US and in the EU, because EU list prices usually include the VAT (commonly 20% on electronics and stuff), while US prices don't, because in the US varies from state to state. When you walk into a US grocery store to buy a coke, the price on the label usually doesn't include the VAT, and you have to pay more than is printed on the label.

A score-masterpiece, that elevates the film very much! Love Arnold  so I won't be objective in my opinion about the film, but I think it's a cult classic. Watched the International cut.
 

 
A somewhat silly sequel, with not so good effects of the creature (I wonder how better it would be if Rick Baker had done the special effects) but enjoyable again nonetheless. The score is mostly a rehash of the first movie's score, but it features a new equally good main theme.
 
Watched both films from my newly purchased spectacular Arrow 4k release!

Well, if you ask me about the score of the year, it's this one:
 
It plays like old school film music, actually more like classical music with large atonal parts and more extended harmony parts resembling Mahler (maybe?) or other composers (who???)..
Please give it a listen (I mean all of you jwfanners) , and tell me your thoughts in the appropriate thread. I would be really curious to know...
I was very surprised when I listened to it, about how good it is! There is no contest with any other film score of the year. 
I don't know how it plays to picture though...

I haven't listened to many 2023 releases but I assume the Williams score was indeed the best?
Because by Williams standards is in my bottom list of his output.

Not sure if you’re familiar with the recording sessions but I created a film edit for the entire sequence:
