It's almost a carbon copy of "Dinner With Amelia" from The Terminal (except that it was composed seven years earlier). Has this been mentioned before? It was actually shocking to hear. I wonder if the film was temp-tracked with it, and Spielberg asked Williams to write something very similar.

gkgyver 1,645 Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 First time I ever heard something from Black Hawk Dawn. Is this supposed to be one of those great Zimmer scores that "will be remembered"? Sounds like an expanded version of a Windows error message signal. Maybe Zimmer should record the tunes for the next version of Windows. I know he could do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morlock 11 Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 Have you even seen the film? As the piece is not indicative of the rest of the score and, well, the score is terrific in the film.

Neimoidian 14 Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 I haven't heard the whole "As Good As It Gets" score, but I know the whole title track. It is definitely similar to what JW has done in "Terminal", however, when compared is not as good as the latter.I like the "BHD" score very much. It is one of my favourite HZ and co.'s scores. It is an interesting mix of rock, african flavour, and traditional zimmeresque orchestral approach. There is a beautiful song "Gortoz A Ran - J'Attends" written by Denez Prigent, which alone makes the album worth buying. For me Zimmer is one of few people who can combine so many different elements and still come up with a coherent album. And I don't care that he didn't write the whole material himself.

There's an enlightened view. Rejecting a great film with a good score because a JW fan called 'Synchrotone' great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Bakara', 'Tribal War' or 'Leave no Man Behind' are some highlights. Again, for me.There, does that redefine your universe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ollie 1,059 Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 I think after the first 10 to 15 Zimmer scores one can get an idea of what he's all about and besides there many more interesting and good composers to discuss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instead of broadening the horizon, let's flogging all the pretty TDH's (truly dead horses) til they're leveled to the ground.Are you seriously saying that listening to yet another "yet another" Zimmer score broadens your horizon? By that definition, I should arrive at the end of the rainbow when I get Pan's Labyrinth tomorrow.But seriously, I've listened to about 7 different Zimmer scores spanning 10 years, and without a shadow of doubt in my mind I can say that Mr. Remote Control has nothing else to tell me, neither in the future, nor in those parts of the past I haven't explored yet.And by the way, in my humble opinion, the whole prequel trilogy turned out to be the biggest turkey of the 20th century, so I think they're good for a couple more years of bashing.

Morlock 11 Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 I think you misread Mark's post. Well, I think you and I make excellent points. Time will tell who is right.I agree with Steef. Just what we need...another yes man. I wonder, has Stefan got you to do his laundry yet?But seriously, I've listened to about 7 different Zimmer scores spanning 10 years, and without a shadow of doubt in my mind I can say that Mr. Remote Control has nothing else to tell me, neither in the future, nor in those parts of the past I haven't explored yet. That is total rubbish. 7 out of 90+ won't tell you anything about a guy's talent, or lack-there-of. It is understandable that you have no desire to listen further, but you cannot pretend to speak authorotatively on a composer if you don't know what you're really talking about.

gkgyver 1,645 Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 So do I have to listen to all 90+ Zimmer scores to "be qualified" in your eyes? Have you listened to all those drivels?7 (or 8, I'm not quite sure at the moment) scores that reach from the 90s to 2006 can tell you a hell of a lot about a composer. It tells me how he constructs his music. And when those constructs are as boring in 2006 as they were 10 years earlier, I'm quite sure the rest isn't very worthwhile.And I'm not going to look forever just to eventually find one score that makes me think of Hans Zimmer as slightly less a hack.
