    paleo got a reaction from Tom Guernsey in Hans Zimmer's DUNE PART TWO (2024)   
    I totally agree. "The Creator" also comes to mind. I was hoping there would be something like "Prayer" of that score in Dune, but alas, religioso mode was probably not what Villeneuve was after here. Thus, "The Emperor" is the only cue vaguely going in that direction, I guess, albeit being much more aggressive

    Had completely forgotten about this release, and just placed my annual Christmas order of CDs... But: I saw that it's also available as a download. While I prefer CDs I am tempted to buy the download version in order to avoid the additional 15 to 20 € shipping costs.

    I think you overestimate the amount of action in this movie. ;-)

    They are quite different, and actually get weirder and weirder. One has to get used to that, and adjust expectations.

    He even provided the voice for Indy in some of the Indiana Jones PC games. Because of him, I first watched the German version of the new movie, which I rarely do.

    I just watched the movie the second time, this time under better sound conditions, so now I could really enjoy (and discern, actually) the music much better. I noticed so many little nuggets left off the OST album... almost infutiating how the OST frequently skips very interisting passages... actually some of the highlights, IMO. 😆 
    There is great unreleased music on the train in the beginning (basically everything from the moment Indy gets his hat and whip back). The full version of Voller Returns is great, as is a missing passage when Indy reads the Grafikos disc (descending woodwinds, mirroring the approach to Archimedes' skeleton in his tomb). Then there is the remainder of Archimedes Tomb, really the culmination of the mystery aspects of the score, with a great crescendo. Not to mention all the great stuff in ancient Syracuse. Just love it.

    When watching DoD last weekend, I was the only one left in the theater for at least the last 5 minutes.

    Well, one week has passed since I bought the album, and by now I can say I enjoy this score more than any other in the past years, if not decades. I have spent a significant portion of my spare time listening to the album, often even the whole thing, and just can't get enough. I'm really grateful to have an experience like this one more time.

    I think the DOD score is on par with the complete TROS score (ost + fyc + unreleased cues) but if I'm just comparing the music on the albums, I definitely prefer DOD. The last time I've had a new ost on full repeat over such a long time was TFA.

    I’ve listened to this OST all the way through at least 7 times just in the past week. I can’t remember doing that with any other score in recent memory.

    ...and I am not convinced regarding its theme analysis.

    Yes, once on top of the train, and once in Morocco. As for the trailer: It's not the whip, but a long stick he uses to move the boulder

    I just went to see the movie, and lucky me! There was a super loud beach party at the public swimming pool next to the theater, plus, the sound volume of the movie was low. The experience was near-ruined for me especially during the quieter moments because of all the bawling and boom-boom-boom noise.
    Anyway, rant out of the way, I really liked the movie, and I thought the climax was handled quite well (I had feared much worse). There could have been a lot more tomb and cave exploring, ancient riddles or booby traps for my taste, but the action was good. I did notice many interesting snippets of music not on the album; funny enough, once again the climax moments of finding and using the MacGuffin are not released, like so often before. Here it's not as regrettable as in Last Crusade, though.
